After that cheesy, over-inspiring title.. Here's the actual useful part!
Firstly, here are some links to some very useful places where you can find official UN information. Firstly, in the Official Document System, you can search for any collection of key words to find documents pertaining to UN resolutions or working papers. Also, you should keep a lookout at the UN's Human Rights Website as well.
Secondly, I'll discuss Topic 2. While it may seem that I'm skipping Topic 1, I believe that Topic 2 is also more controversial because more countries tend to overstep this boundary. Whether we're talking about the USA PATRIOT Act or Canada's newly minted all-encompassing "Anti-Terrorism" movement that allows for unprecedented government authority, countries are now bypassing basic human rights in the fight against terrorism. However, here are a few questions to consider:
1. How effective are these measures? Do the ends justify the means?
2. How long are these powers going to remain in place for the government?
3. How do we prevent the improper use of these powers?
4. How do you justify the bypassing of human rights to defeat terrorism?
Hopefully, these links and questions help you guys if you ever have any difficulty!
Peace Out.
