Book Description
Der Forschungskreis Vereinte Nationen wurde 1999 als informelles Netzwerk für UN-Forschung gegründet mit dem Ziel, den Informationsaustausch unter den Wissenschaftlern der verschiedenen Fachdisziplinen und den Dialog mit den Praktikern zu fördern. Die regelmäßig stattfindenden Potsdamer UNO-Konferenzen des Forschungskreises Vereinte Nationen widmen sich der kritischen Analyse der UN-Forschung. Darüber hinaus bieten sie ein Forum für die Diskussion mit Politikern, UN-Mitarbeitern, Diplomaten und Journalisten über die Aufgaben der Vereinten Nationen und ihre Strukturen sowie über Konzepte zu ihrer Reform. Im vorliegenden Buch werden wichtige Referate der Potsdamer UNO-Konferenzen 2000 bis 2008 veröffentlicht, die sich unter anderem den Themenbereichen Friedenssicherung, Menschenrechtsschutz und Umweltschutz durch die Vereinten Nationen, der Reform der UN-Hauptorgane sowie der deutschen UN-Politik und der UN-Politik im Rahmen der Europäischen Union widmen, und die ergänzt werden durch Beiträge der beiden Herausgeber zu den Problemen und Perspektiven der UN-Forschung in Deutschland.

International Counterterrorism Bureaucracies in the United Nations and the European Union
Author: Hendrik Hegemann
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1474243169
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Since the attacks of September 11, 2001 a complex web of international structures and rules for the fight against transnational terrorism has emerged. However, previous research disregarded the organizational basis of counterterrorism cooperation. Using the example of bureaucratic actors in the United Nations and the European Union, this study examines how and to what degree international counterterrorism bureaucracies exercise autonomy and perform distinct functions. The book reveals the special ambivalence of counterterrorism cooperation for international bureaucracies, which need to reconcile calls for effective counterterrorism with the need to maintain an impression of technical impartiality in a particularly contested policy-field. They respond to this challenge with different strategies of politicization and depoliticization.

The Practice of Humanitarian Intervention
Author: Kai Koddenbrock
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317481011
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
This book examines the practices in Western and local spheres of humanitarian intervention, and shows how the divide between these spheres helps to perpetuate Western involvement. Using the Democratic Republic of the Congo as a case study – an object of Western intervention since colonial times – this book scrutinizes the contemporary practice of humanitarian intervention from the inside. It seeks to expose how humanitarian aid and peacekeeping works, what obstacles they encounter and how they manage to retain their legitimacy. By examining the relationship between the West and the DR Congo, this volume asks why intervention continues to be so central for the relationship between Western and local spheres. Why is it normal and self-evident? The main answer developed here is that the separation of these two spheres allows intervention to enjoy sufficient degrees of legitimacy to be sustained. Owing to the contradictions that surface when juxtaposing the Western and Congolese spheres, this book highlights how keeping them separate is key to sustaining intervention. Bridging the divide between the liberal peace debate in International Relations and anthropologies of humanitarianism, this volume thus presents an important contribution to taking both the legitimizing proclamations and ‘local’ realities of intervention seriously. The book will be of much interest to students of statebuilding, peacebuilding, peacekeeping, anthropology, research methods and IR in general.

The New Dynamics of Multilateralism
Author: James P. Muldoon
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429975821
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
This timely new book focuses on the various dynamics of contemporary multilateralism as it relates to global issues, global governance, and global institutions. Invited authorities, including academics, business people, and members of international groups, contribute original essays on how multilateralism as an institution has been affected by globalization, the rise of civil society and global business, emerging economic and political conditions, and new threats to peace and security in the world. Emphasizing practical applications over theoretical foundations, The New Dynamics of Multilateralism helps students understand how the practice of multilateral diplomacy has been influenced by the changes in the processes and procedures of international organizations and the role of multilateralism in the transformation of the international system of governance and the transition to an emerging new global order.

Europäisches und Globales Christentum / European and Global Christianity
Author: Katharina Kunter
Publisher: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
ISBN: 3647557064
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
HauptbeschreibungThe historical study of Protestantism is often limited to internal or national discussions. Yet a broader, international look means also studying the major upheavals that occurred throughout the world, such as wars and globalisation. This volume first reviews the history of the church in the 20th century from an international and interdisciplinary vantage point and takes a look at the most important themes and conflicts that marked that often tension-filled time, among others the two world wars, globalisation, the broad number of continuities and discontinuities, the influence.

Mathematical Methods for Economic Theory 2
Author: James C. Moore
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540612100
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 1012
Book Description
This two-volume work functions both as a textbook for graduates and as a reference for economic scholars. Assuming only the minimal mathematics background required of every second-year graduate in economics, the two volumes provide a self-contained and careful development of mathematics through locally convex topological vector spaces, and fixed-point, separation, and selection theorems in such spaces. This second volume introduces general topology, the theory of correspondences on and into topological spaces, Banach spaces, topological vector spaces, and maximum, fixed-point, and selection theorems for such spaces
