Conclusion Bibliography Introduction Northern Ireland conflict, called “the Troubles” was the most durable conflict in the Europe since WW2. Before War in Donbass (2014-present), which lead to 9,371 death up to June 3, 20161 it also can be called the bloodiest conflict, but unfortunately The Donbass War snatched from The Troubles “the victory palm” of this dreadful competition. The importance of this issue, however, is still essential and vital because of challenges Europe experience now. Both proxy war on Donbass and recent terrorist attacks had strained significantly the political atmosphere in Europe, showing that Europe is not safe anymore. In this conditions, it is necessary for us to try to assume, how far this insecurity and tensions might go and will the circumstances and the challenges of a international relations ignite the conflict in Northern Ireland again. It also makes sense for us to recognize that the Troubles was also a proxy war to a certain degree 23 Sources, used in this essay are mostly mass-media articles, human rights observers’ and international organizations reports, and surveys made by political scientists on this issue.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract The thesis critically examines the advance of United Nations peacekeeping as an instrument for managing various facets of a post-colonial world order. The first part of the study explores the structural role of UN peace operations in a world of sovereign states as well as the internal political struggle to shape the parameters and direction of the UN’s work. As far as the former is concerned, it is suggested that peace operations should be understood as very specific political activities that have been forged to provide for either a transition from one social system to another, or deployed to buttress a particular world social order. Concurrently, it is argued that the expansion of peacekeeping must also be seen in the context of the internal ideological and political battle to determine the orientation of the world body.

    OLD BALLINTEER 1 OLD BALLINTEER COUNTY DUBLIN A SOCIAL HISTORY 1930-1960 draft Ballinteer Active Retirement Association Local History Study Group 2014 2 Ballinteer Active Retirement Association (BARA) was established in 2005. A local history study group was formed in 2012 to collect information concerning the history of the locality. This publication is the result of information gathered from archival sources and from people who lived in Old Ballinteer and who were kind enough to tell us their story. It is an important chapter in the local history of the Ballinteer. Members of the study group in alphabetical order are: Christy Byrne, Naula Burke, Vera O’Connell, Peggy Crowley, Noel Doyle, Joe Fleming, John Cogan, Dermot Kavanagh, Sean Magee, Chairman, Sean Roche, Nick Ryan. We would like to acknowledge the assistance of Mr. Tony Lynch in preparing this document for publication. 3 Introduction “Old Ballinteer” means that community which was established in the 1930s and ‘40s at the corner of Ballinteer Road and Avenue. There was an older community in the area associated with the big named houses which was involved in agriculture. The new community consisted of three small urban close-knit estates. There was a close association between the old and the new in that many people migrated from the old rural community to the new urban estates. Mayfield House, dating at least from the beginning of the 19th century, was an old named house at the top of Mayfield Terrace, at the centre of the new community. The land was part of the Pembroke Estate for centuries.
