Why or why not is it appropriate to call this campaign successful in light of the refusal of the United States and other major military powers to sign the anti-landmine treaty?
What will be an ideal response?
It really depends on what an individual values. If total victory is the value, then
the campaign has not succeeded. However, if a substantial reduction in the use of
landmines is the value, then this campaign is a success. The ICBL has also put
countries such as the United States, which champions human rights, on the
defensive. The campaign may not end until every nation signs and adheres to the
treaty. However, by any reasonable measure, this campaign's successes
outweigh its failures.
