    Abstract: "What is the state? The State of Freedom offers an important new take on this classic question by exploring what exactly the state did and how it worked. Patrick Joyce asks us to re-examine the ordinary things of the British state from dusty government files and post offices to well-thumbed primers in ancient Greek and Latin and the classrooms and dormitories of public schools and Oxbridge colleges. This is also a history of the 'who' and the 'where' of the state, of the people who ran the state, the government offices they sat in and the college halls they dined in. Patrick Joyce argues that only by considering these things, people and places can we really understand the nature of the modern state. This is both a pioneering new approach to political history in which social and material factors are centre stage, and a highly original history of modern Britain"--

Cawelti Award for Best Textbook or Primer on American and Popular Culture) and Homer Simpson Marches on Washington, this exceptional volume reveals how books like J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and J.

    Abstract: Includes bibliographical references and index
    Abstract: This book sheds new light on the continuing debate within political thought as to what constitutes power, and what distinguishes legitimate from illegitimate power. It does so by considering the experience of Russia, a polity where experiences of the legitimacy of power and the collapse of power offer a contrast to Western experiences on which most political theory, formulated in the West, is based. The book considers power in a range of contexts - philosophy and discourse; the rule of law and its importance for economic development; the use of culture and religion as means to legitimate power

Many politicians and religious leaders believe so, as do the majority of Americans, based on public opinion polls taken over the past several years. But is this crisis of values real? This book explores the moral terrain of America today, analyzing the widely held perception that the nation is in moral decline. It looks at the question from a variety of angles, examining traditional values, secular values, religious values, family values, economic values, and others. Using unique data from the World Values Surveys, the la...

    Abstract: The former Soviet empire spanned eleven time zones and contained half the world's forests; vast deposits of oil, gas and coal; various ores; major rivers such as the Volga, Don and Angara; and extensive biodiversity. These resources and animals, as well as the people who lived in the former Soviet Union - Slavs, Armenians, Georgians, Azeris, Kazakhs and Tajiks, indigenous Nenets and Chukchi - were threatened by environmental degradation and extensive pollution. This environmental history of the former Soviet Union explores the impact that state economic development programs had on the environment. The authors consider the impact of Bolshevik ideology on the establishment of an extensive system of nature preserves, the effect of Stalinist practices of industrialization and collectivization on nature, and the rise of public involvement under Khrushchev and Brezhnev, and changes to policies and practices with the rise of Gorbachev and the break-up of the USSR.

    Abstract: Martial experiences and the mythologies that surround them have profoundly affected the ways in which Americans think of themselves. Wars identify the heroes who help define national character, provide the stories for the grand narratives of belonging and sacrifice, and serve as markers for essential moments of transformation. However, only in the last several years have scholars begun using the term "cultural history of American warfare" to identify the study of how public discourse formulates these defining myths and narratives. This volume brings together scholarship from diver...

    Abstract: The American Republic was born in revolt against the British crown, and ever since, political extremism has had a long tradition in the United States. To some observers, the continued presence of extremist groups--and the escalation of their activities--portends the fragmentation of the country, while others believe such is the way American pluralism works. The word extremism often carries negative connotations, yet in 1964 Barry Goldwater famously said, ""Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice."" Extremism in America is a sweeping overview and assessment of the various brands of big...

    Abstract: While supporting the cosmopolitan pursuit of a world that respects all rights and interests, James D. Ingram believes political theorists have, in their approach to this project, compromised its egalitarian and emancipatory principles. Focusing on recent debates without losing sight of cosmopolitanism's ancient and Enlightenment roots, Ingram confronts the philosophical difficulties of defending universal ideals and the implications for ethics and political theory.In morality as in politics, theorists have generally focused first on discovering universal values and second on their

    Abstract: "Erik J. Engstrom offers a historical perspective on the effects of gerrymandering on elections and party control of the U.S. national legislature. Aside from the requirements that districts be continuous and, after 1842, that each select only one representative, there were few restrictions on congressional districting. Unrestrained, state legislators drew and redrew districts to suit their own partisan agendas. With the rise of the "one-person, one-vote" doctrine and the implementation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, however, redistricting became subject to court oversight. Engstrom evaluates the abundant cross-sectional and temporal variation in redistricting plans and their electoral results from all the states, from 1789 through the 1960s, to identify the causes and consequences of partisan redistricting. His analysis reveals that districting practices across states and over time systematically affected the competitiveness of congressional elections; shaped the partisan composition of congressional delegations; and, on occasion, determined party control of the House of Representatives"--

    Abstract: Die Indigenenbewegung ist trotz ihrer enormen Diversität ein wichtiger sozialer Akteur in der ecuadorianischen Gesellschaft. Seit einer Sattelzeit zwischen Mitte der 1970er und Mitte der 1980er Jahre hat sie einen Diskurs herausgebildet, der identitäre mit klassistischen Positionen verbindet und um die politischen Begriffe indigene Nationalität, Territorialität, Plurinationalität, Interkulturalität und Gutes Leben herum aufgebaut ist. Philipp Altmann zeigt, wie sich dieser Diskurs gegen die koloniale Strukturierung der Gesellschaft und ihre Auswirkungen - wie etwa Diskriminierung und Ungleichheit - wendet und daher dekolonial zu verstehen ist.
    Abstract: The Indigenous Peoples Movement, despite its enormous diversity, is an important social player in Ecuadorian Society. Since the transitional period between the mid-1970s and mid-1980s, it has established a discourse which combines identity with class position and is structured around the political terms indigenous sovereignty, nationality, territoriality, plural nationality, interculturality, and »the good life«.Philipp Altmann shows how this discourse stands in opposition to the colonial structuring of society and its effects - such as discrimination and inequality - and is therefore to be understood as decolonial.

    Abstract: This new and abridged edition of Scenarios of Power is a concise version of Richard Wortman's award-winning study of Russian monarchy from the seventeenth century until 1917. The author breaks new ground by showing how imperial ceremony and imagery were not simply displays of the majesty of the sovereign and his entourage, but also instruments central to the exercise of absolute power in a multinational empire. In developing this interpretation, Wortman presents vivid descriptions of coronations, funerals, parades, trips through the realm, and historical celebrations and reveals how

    Abstract: This book provides unique insights into the challenges and potential solutions to alleviate poverty in western China. Many people are interested in China's economic and social development; the development of Tibet is an important part of this narrative. Unlike big cities in the east of China, Tibet is still underdeveloped, with severe poverty, relatively poor communications, poor infrastructure, transport links, and limited social services. Using deep and well-researched analyses, learned Chinese scholars share their policy insights, experience and knowledge of the underlying causes and potential solutions to this underdevelopment and poverty. The reader is also provided with firsthand accounts of different people in Tibet, ranging from local government officials to poverty-stricken herdsmen. This book gets at the heart of problems faced by ordinary Tibetans, such as dealing with impacts of natural disasters, lack of education, managing ecological resettlement, and trying to prevent the transmission of intergenerational poverty. Looking at these issues from a theoretical, policy, government and practical perspective, Breaking Out of the Poverty Trap - Case Studies from the Tibetan Plateau in Yunnan, Qinghai and Gansu covers the full range of issues in the development of the Tibetan Plateau

    Abstract: Der Dominanzverlust weißer Männer, so begrüßenswert er ist, birgt Sprengstoff. Dazu gehört die Versuchung, Dezentrierung mit Marginalisierung und Privilegienabbau mit Diskriminierung zu verwechseln und sich am Ende als »Opfer der Opfer« zu bemitleiden. Die Attentate von Anders Breivik haben Gefahren einer sich bedroht fühlenden Männlichkeit sichtbar gemacht. Die Selbstreflexion weißer Männer ist seither überfällig. Sie ist aber auch heikel. Als Privilegierte können sie sich nicht in gleicher Weise thematisieren wie jene, die sich an die Ränder einer von ihnen beherrschten Welt verwiesen sehen. Die Freilegung des Dilemmas, in dem sich weiße Männer heute befinden, eröffnet einen Ausweg jenseits von Selbstmitleid und Selbstüberhebung.
    Abstract: Review text: »Der Autor warnt vor der Versuchung weißer Männer, Privilegienabbau mit Diskriminierung zu verwechseln und sich selbst als Opfer zu stilisieren.« Nina May, Märkische Allgemeine Zeitung, 02./03.11.2013/www.lvz-online.de, 01.11.2013/www.haz.de, 01.11.2013
    Abstract: The decline in white male dominance, as desirable as it may be, holds explosive potential. This includes the temptation to confuse decentralization with marginalization and privilege reduction with discrimination, and ultimately to pity oneself as a 〉〉victim of victims〈〈. The attacks of Anders Breivik have exposed the dangers of a masculinity that feels threatened. The self-reflexion of white men is overdue ever since. But it is also a delicate matter. As the privileged ones, they cannot address issues in the same way as those who find themselves pushed to the edges of the world they dominate. Exposing the dilemma in which white men are caught today opens an exit route beyond self pity and hubris.

    Description / Table of Contents: "Cristian Vaccari presents an analysis of seven advanced Western democracies' digital politics-US, UK, Australia, Germany, Italy, Spain, and France-from 2006 to 2010. Examining the presentation and consumption of website politics, his study not only refutes claims that the web creates homogenized American-style politics and political interaction but also empirically reveals how a nation's unique constraints and opportunities create unique digital responses. This first large scale, comparative treatment of both the supply and demand sides of digital politics among different national political actors is divided into four parts: research methodology and theoretical challenges; how parties and candidates structure their websites (supply); how citizens use websites to access campaign information (demand); and then ties the research results back into his theoretical framework. Because a key aspect of any political system is how political actors communicate, this book will be invaluable for scholars, students, and practitioners interested in political communication, party competition, party organization, political participation, and the study of contemporary media landscapes writ large"--

Anett Stromer belegt mit dieser empirischen Studie, was Medien fast täglich berichten: Rund jeder fünfte Jugendliche in diesem Bundesland denkt "rechts"" - und 29 Prozent der übrigen Befragten neigen deutlich zu rechtsextremistischem Gedankengut. Die U-18-Bundestagswahl 2009 brachte ans Licht: Jugendliche hätten der NPD in Dresden zu 17 Prozent und in Zwickau zu 22 Prozent der Stimmen verholfen. Das hat Folgen: Neben der NPD und ih

    Abstract: Morocco is notable for its stable and durable monarchy, its close ties with the West, its vibrant cultural life, and its centrality to regional politics. This book, by distinguished historian, Susan Gilson Miller, offers a richly documented survey of modern Moroccan history. The author's original and astute interpretations of the events, ideas, and personalities that inform contemporary political life are testimony to her scholarship and long association with the country. Arguing that pragmatism rather than ideology has shaped the monarchy's response to crisis, the book begins with the French invasion of Algeria in 1830 and Morocco's abortive efforts at reform, the duel with colonial powers and the loss of independence in 1912, the burdens and benefits of France's forty-four year dominion, and the stunning success of the nationalist movement leading to independence in 1956. In the post-independence era, the book traces the monarchy's gradual monopolization of power and the resulting political paralysis, ending with the last years of Hassan II's reign, when Moroccan society experienced a sudden and radical opening. A postscript brings events up to 2012, covering topics such as Morocco's war on terror, the dtente between the monarchy and the Islamists, and the impact of the Arab Spring. This concise, readable book will inform and enthrall students coming to the history of North Africa for the first time, and also those in other disciplines searching for the background to present-day events in the region.

    Abstract: 'This is a well-structured book on a complex question that has been relevant for centuries leading up to the actual crisis in the EU and the international financial markets. The book offers a rich picture of empirics, and discusses, explains and criticizes a number of classical theories in the field (Marx, Schumpeter, Polanyi), as well as modern theories (Greif, North et al., Acemoglu, Perez and others). The familiar topics of property rights, technological development and long waves are presented in an illuminating way, whereas a number of new topics including open and limited access societies, hyper globalization, and the European Union are viewed in a broad perspective of "political economy" and "institutional economics." The limitations of neoclassical economics are well presented as are the benefits (and costs) of political economy.' (John Groenewegen, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands). -- 'This book is a very coherent and up-to-date work. It presents a clear and sophisticated view on the role of economic institutions and aspects of political economy in the process of modern economic growth. The author demonstrates significant originality in combining insights from different sub-fields to successfully understand economic growth and the distribution of income in the economy. It will be a rich source of ideas for anyone interested in how the modern world, and various countries and regions in particular, attained high levels of economic welfare.' (Sjak Smulders, Tilburg University, the Netherlands). -- Capitalism is driven by technological revolutions, leading to alternating periods of regulation and deregulation in leading economies. Technologically backward countries face a different situation as they have to catch up with the leaders. Against this backdrop, Theo van de Klundert examines the relationship between capitalism and democracy, combining economic theory and historical description to analyse long-run economic development. Emphasis is placed on the interrelation between economic and political power, and a robust state-of-the-art overview of todays political economy is presented.

    Abstract: Überwachen und Strafen Im Panoptikum, Jeremy Benthams idealem Gefängnis- und Erziehungsbau, werden die Delinquenten permanenter Überwachung durch einen Aufseher unterzogen, der im Mittelpunkt eines kreisförmigen Gebäudes sitzt. Aber zu welchem Zweck? Michel Foucault interpretierte in seinem Werk Überwachen und Strafen (1975) Benthams Bau als Prototyp für die latente Perversion bürgerlicher Aufklärung, die Schizophrenie eines Liberalismus, der stets das Gute will und stets das Böse schafft. Aber stimmt das wirklich? Die erste deutsche Übersetzung von Panoptikum offenbart die Aktualität von Benthams Gedankenwelt. Als Begründer des Utilitarismus und Anhänger des Wirtschaftsliberalismus war er davon überzeugt, dass der Kapitalismus der wahre Schlüssel zum Glück des Menschen ist - und nichts anderes als den Weg zum Glück wollte er mit dem Panoptikum jedem Menschen ebnen. Ebook-Version ohne Interview mit Michel Foucault. Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) gilt als Begründer des klassischen Utilitarismus, Sozialreformer und Vordenker des modernen Wohlfahrtsstaats. Seiner Zeit weit voraus forderte er allgemeine Wahlen, das Frauenstimmrecht, die Abschaffung der Todesstrafe, Tierrechte, die Legalisierung der Homosexualität und die Pressefreiheit. Der Antimonarchist Bentham ist aber auch bekannt für seine scharfe Kritik an der französischen Menschenrechtserklärung, seinen radikalen Atheismus, sein Eintreten für Wucherzinsen und seine Argumente für den legitimen Einsatz der Folter.

    Abstract: Main description: In den neueren Diskussionen über den Kolonialismus wird vermehrt dem »Kolonialismus ohne Kolonien« Beachtung geschenkt: Auf welche Weise waren auch solche europäischen Länder involviert, die selbst nicht als Kolonialmacht aufgetreten sind? Und wie wirken sich diese Verstrickungen auf die postkoloniale Gegenwart aus? Der Band geht diesen Fragen am Beispiel der postkolonialen Schweiz nach und stößt damit auch die längst überfällige Rezeption der Postcolonial Studies in der Schweiz an. Mit Beiträgen von Christine Bischoff, Christof Dejung, Sara Elmer, Francesca Falk, Gaby Fierz, Alexander Honold, Rohit Jain, Franziska Jenni, Meral Kaya, Christian Koller, Konrad J. Kuhn, Barbara Lüthi, Martin Mühlheim, Patricia Purtschert, Bernhard C. Schär, Daniel Speich Chassé und einem Vorwort von Shalini Randeria.

    Abstract: Mauerfall und Vereinigung scheinen nach zwanzig Jahren der Vergangenheit anzugehören. Beide Ereignisse haben die Bundesrepublik jedoch nicht nur vergrößert, sondern auch und vor allem tief greifend verändert. In diesem Sammelband untersuchen deutsche und französische Historiker, Kultur- und Literaturwissenschaftler sowie Soziologen, inwieweit die 'alte' Bundesrepublik sich in ein 'neues' Deutschland verwandelt hat. Die deutsch-französische Perspektive ermöglicht dabei überraschende Einsichten für die aktuelle gesellschaftliche und politische Standortbestimmung des vereinten Deutschlands sowie dessen Umgang mit seiner deutsch-deutschen Vergangenheit

    Abstract: Die Themen Migration und Integration haben sich in den vergangenen Jahren dynamisch zum eigenständigen Politikfeld entwickelt. Politik und Wirtschaft, Öffentlichkeit und Medien sind sich einig, dass es sich um zentrale Themen der Zukunft handelt. Es geht um die Zukunft unserer Gesellschaft, um ihren inneren Zusammenhalt, aber auch um die Herausforderung des demographischen Wandels. Die Themen Migration und Integration sind aber nicht nur in aller Munde, sondern zunehmend auch praktisches Politikfeld auf allen Ebenen - ob in Bund, Länder oder vor allem im kommunalen Bereich, wo sich Zehntausende professionell oder ehrenamtlich mit diesen Themen beschäftigen. Mit diesem Band liefern die Herausgeber ein handliches Kompendium, das in kurzen, sachlichen Beiträgen von namhaften Autoren aus ganz Deutschland verlässliche Informationen über mehr als 60 zentrale Begriffe aus dem Politikfeld Migration/Integration liefert

    Abstract: This book is a historical study of the Tajiks in Central Asia from the ancient times to the post-Soviet period. For millennia, these descendants of the original Aryan settlers were part of many different empires set up by Greek, Arab, Turkic and Russian invaders, as well as their own, most notably during the Middle Ages. The emergence of the modern state of Tajikistan began after 1917 under Soviet rule, and culminated in the promulgation of independence from the moribund USSR in 1991. In the subsequent civil war that raged between 1992 and 1997, Tajikistan came close to becoming a failed state. The legacy of that internal conflict remains critical to understanding politics in Tajikistan a generation later. Exploring the patterns of ethnic identity and the exigencies of state formation, the book argues that despite a strong sense of belonging underpinned by shared history, mythology and cultural traits, the Tajiks have not succeeded in forming a consolidated nation. The politics of the Russian colonial administration, the national-territorial delimitation under Stalin, and the Soviet strategy of socio-economic modernisation contributed to the preservation and reification of sub-ethnic cleavages and regional identities. The book demonstrates the impact of region-based elite clans on Tajikistan’s political trajectory in the twilight years of the Soviet era, and identifies objective and subjective factors that led to the civil war. It concludes with a survey of the process of national reconciliation after 1997, and the formal and informal political actors, including Islamist groups, who compete for influence in Tajik society

    Abstract: Prominente Beispiele des "Aufbegehrens" gegenüber politischen Entscheidungen, wie etwa jüngst "Stuttgart 21", haben die Frage politischer Partizipation verstärkt in die öffentliche Diskussion gerückt. Seitens der Politiker wird eine stärkere Beteiligung der Bevölkerung meist mit der Begründung mangelnder politischer Kompetenz abgelehnt. Jana Trumann geht dieser Unterstellung nach, indem sie politische Lern-Handlungspraxen am Beispiel von Bürgerinitiativen aufgreift und aus subjektwissenschaftlicher Perspektive lerntheoretisch analysiert. Das Buch stellt einen vielschichtigen politischen Lern-H.

    Abstract: This book examines how governments, non-profit and private organizations, and local networks understand the connections between public values and social issues. Western societies face complex social issues and a growing diversity of views on how these should be addressed. The traditional view focuses on government and public policy but neglects the initiatives that non-profit and private organizations and local networks take. This book presents a broader variety of viewpoints and theories. Looking at various cases, the authors analyse conflicting values and interests, actors' understandings of the public values related to social issues, and their action to create what they regard as public value. Drawing together these perspectives the authors point the way to how government and the private and voluntary sectors can work in tandem to resolve social issues. The study will prove insightful for researchers and students in fields such as governance studies, public administration, public sector management, organization studies, non-profit and voluntary organizations, civil society, public policy, social policy and social issues in management. The policy focus of the book will also draw the interest of policy makers in governmental and non-governmental organizations

    Abstract: This groundbreaking volume offers a comprehensive look at the current state of Iraq's political economy in the aftermath of the US-led overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003. Frank R. Gunter describes the unique difficulties facing the modern Iraqi economy and provides detailed recommendations for fostering future economic growth and stability. The book begins with an overview of Iraq's current political, economic, and social status, including discussions of real growth, unemployment, inflation, health, poverty, education, and gender issues. This is followed by a comprehensive look at what the author identifies as the three dominant characteristics of the political economy of Iraq: corruption, political instability, and petroleum. Using these foundational ideas as a springboard, the book then provides a detailed breakdown of the Iraqi economy by sector, as well as discussions of Iraq's fiscal, monetary, and exchange rate policies. The final chapter identifies the major trends that will determine the course of future economic development in Iraq and provides insightful recommendations for encouraging positive economic growth.

    Abstract: pt. I. The European Union, China and the global governance of climate change -- pt. II. EU-Vietnam climate relations : a study of the clean development mechanism -- pt. III. Conclusion.
    Abstract: This book is very timely ... it provides important insights for bilateral cooperation and international negotiations. These lessons go beyond EU-China and EU-Vietnam relations. Many of them are applicable to other countries in Asia, a region which will remain a key priority for EU foreign and climate policy, not least as the EUs largest trading partner. From the foreword by Jos Delbeke, Director General, EC DG Climate Action The Governance of Climate Relations between Europe and Asia offers a thorough empirical study of the most fundamental dynamics involved in EU climate relations with China and Vietnam in the context of global climate governance. This book presents a study of the most important governance processes in current EU-Asia climate relations. It focuses on in-depth empirical case studies, offering a comprehensive relational perspective. Contributions on China cover the most essential issues, interests and actors, while the inquiry of EU-Vietnam relations mainly focuses on the Clean Development Mechanism as the main channel of bilateral climate action. This landmark study will appeal to both policymakers and practitioners faced with the extraordinary task of managing the increasingly complex and multilevel interactions of current EU-Asia climate relations as well as global carbon market watchers and professionals dealing with emissions trading in the European Union, China and Vietnam. It will also be of interest to scholars and postgraduate students of international relations, Chinese and EU foreign policy, global environmental and climate governance and international law

At the same time, political involvement in the United States is at an all-time low, and although political life should help us to care better, people see caring as unsupported by public life and deem the concerns of politics as remote from their lives. Caring Democracy argues that we need to rethink American democracy, as well as our fundamental values and commitments, from a caring perspective. The idea that production and economic

    Abstract: With the same intellectual courage with which she addressed issues of gender, Judith Butler turns her attention to speech and conduct in contemporary political life, looking at several efforts to target speech as conduct that has become subject to political debate and regulation. Reviewing hate speech regulations, anti-pornography arguments, and recent controversies about gay self-declaration in the military, Judith Butler asks whether and how language acts in each of these cultural sites

    Abstract: Chance oder Risiko? Der demographische Wandel ist in der breiten Öffentlichkeit längst angekommen und wird oft diskutiert - häufig allerdings mit Blick auf die Risiken! Welche Chancen sich daraus ergeben können, gerät dabei eher in den Hintergrund - nicht zuletzt aufgrund der komplexen und oft schwer zu greifenden Bedingungen. So vollziehen sich demographische Entwicklungen schleichend, über längere Zeiträume oder in Sprüngen und sind dadurch nicht immer leicht in konkrete Planungsprozesse einzubinden. In vielen Kommunen sind Folgen dieses Wandels bereits sichtbar. Als Beispiele seien hier Rüc

    Abstract: Die soziale Welt hat sich seit 1989 grundlegend verändert. Man hatte ein „Ende der Geschichte" und die weltweite Ausbreitung westlicher Institutionen erwartet. Stattdessen ist die multizentrische Welt der Vergangenheit zurückgekehrt, in der auch Gesellschaften des globalen Südens eine Rolle spielen. Anhand konkreter Regional- und Länderbeispiele aus Afrika, Asien und Lateinamerika fragt der Band nach der Brauchbarkeit unseres theoretischen Vokabulars, nach angemessenen Kategorien zur Beschreibung langfristiger und grundlegender sozialer Wandlungsprozesse und damit auch nach der möglicherweise

    Abstract: Zentralasien ist ein Raum staatlicher Fragilität, der Assoziationen wie Drogenhandel und Instabilität weckt. Soziale Ordnungen und die sie definierenden Grenzen haben sich in dieser Region häufig gewandelt. Welche Funktionen haben Grenzen dort heute angesichts parallel laufender Prozesse des State and Nation Building? Wie wirken sich Grenzen auf die Wahrnehmungen der Grenzbevölkerung aus? Und vor allem: Was treibt grenzüberschreitende Beziehungen an und was hemmt sie? State and Nation BuildingDer Autor untersucht diese Fragen entlang der jungen Staatsgrenze zwischen Tadschikistan und Usbekistan sowie an Grenzabschnitten beider Staaten zu Afghanistan – einst die Scheidelinie geopolitischer Großregionen. Zwar bauen die autoritären Regime in Tadschikistan und, mehr noch, in Usbekistan ihre State Building-Projekte in Abgrenzung zu vermeintlich destabilisierenden Einflüssen der Nachbarn. In staatsfernen Grenzregionen sind Interdependenzen aber die Basis für einen durchaus legalen Austausch. State Building

    Abstract: The book is written for active learners - those keen on cutting their own path through the complex and at times hardly comprehensible world of THEORY in International Relations. To aid this process as much as possible, this book employs the didactical and methodical concept of integrating teaching and self-study. The criteria for structured learning about IR theory will be derived from an extensive discussion of the questions and problems of philosophy of science (Part 1). Theory of IR refers to the scientific study of IR and covers all of the following subtopics: the role and status of theory in the academic discipline of IR; the understanding of IR as a science and what a "scientific" theory is; the different assumptions upon which theory building in IR is based; the different types of theoretical constructions and models of explanations found at the heart of particular theories

    Abstract: We live in a time when we are overwhelmed with talk and images of violence. Whether on television, the internet, films or the video screen, we can't escape representations of actual or fictional violence - another murder, another killing spree in a high school or movie theatre, another action movie filled with images of violence. Our age could well be called "The Age of Violence" because representations of real or imagined violence, sometimes fused together, are pervasive. But what do we mean by violence? What can violence achieve? Are there limits to violence and, if so, what are they?

    Abstract: In a provocative and controversial analysis, Wilbur C. Rich's The Post-Racial Society is Here conclusively demonstrates that nation is in midst of a post-racial society. Yet many Americans are skeptical of this fundamental social transformation. The failure of recognition is related to the remnants of the previous race-based society. Recognizing the advent of a post-racial society is not to gainsay recurrent racial incidents or a denial of the socio-economic gap between the races. Using the findings of historians and social scientists, this book outlines why the construction and deconstruction of the race-based society was such a difficult and daunting enterprise. Starting from the nation's inception, Rich examines how the nation elites used racial language, separate schools, and the media to divide Americans. After World War II, the nation used U.S. Supreme Court rulings and the Congressional passage of Civil Rights laws to dismantle the institutional support for racial segregation and discrimination. The black Civil Rights Movement facilitated and consolidated the movement toward socio-political inclusion of African Americans. Rich alerts the reader to the unprecedented progress made and why the forces of the new global economy demand that we move faster to make society more inclusive. This thought-provocking book should interest scholars of sociology, Africana Studies, American studies and African American politics
