11 multiple choice 2 points

world problems?
ineffective leadership
lack of third world membership
lack of participation by communist bloc nations
emphasis on national self - interest by member nations

Explanation:

• Question 9: After the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. led a coalition to overthrow the Taliban in Afghanistan as it was harboring al - Qaeda (the group responsible for the attacks). Reducing support for Israel was not an initial response. Ending trade with all Middle - Eastern nations was too extreme and not done. Iraq was not under communist rule.
• Question 10: Geographic isolation often means less contact with outside influences, so a traditional way of life is more likely to be maintained. Scientific investigation, need for higher education, and cultural diffusion (spread of culture) are more likely to occur with more interaction, not isolation.
• Question 11: International organizations face the problem that member nations often prioritize their own national self - interest over the common good. Ineffective leadership is not the primary, systemic issue. Many Third - World nations are members of international organizations. The era of a distinct “communist bloc” has passed, and even during the Cold War, participation was not the main issue in the context of dealing with world problems as much as national self - interest.

Answer:

1. Aid in the overthrow of Taliban rule in Afghanistan
2. A traditional way of life
3. Emphasis on national self - interest by member nations
