I need help creating a thesis and an outline on Role of the UN in the Arab Spring. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. Arab Spring demonstrations have been faced by violent comebacks from counter-demonstrators, pro-government militias as well as the authorities. Some political observers have likened the Arab Spring to the Autumn of Nations that took place in Europe in 1989 (UN APPG, 2012). This essay addresses the role played by the UN in the Arab spring.

The UN lost its significance in the international scene when the US made the unilateral decision to occupy Iraq. The UN demonstrated transformed willingness to protect civilians throughout the Arab spring. In other words, the UN took an increasingly proactive role in global politics in the past few years as there has been an upsurge of crisis in Arab countries. In the recent civil wars that took place in the Ivory Coast and Libya, the UN pledged to use all the necessary ways to protect the lives of innocent civilians (Manhire, 2012: 32). This eagerness to confront the crisis in the Arab Spring comes after years of dissatisfaction where the UN took a back seat as the US practised its selfish interests around the globe.

As political revolutions have spread across Arab nations, the UN has become the main area of focus on global efforts to take a general position on conflicts that influence global stability. The UN demonstrated its capability and willingness under the appropriate political conditions through economic sanctions and the use of military force so as to enforce human rights and international law (UN APPG, 2012). The UN has become increasingly active by employing a wide range of coercive instruments.

The recent events that have taken place in Arab countries were not widely envisaged, however, one section of the UN did point out the possibility of upheaval. The UNDP published a number of reports in the years between 2001 and 2005 evaluating the social, demographic and economic issues in North Africa and the Middle East region (UN APPG, 2012).&nbsp.
