für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray This book is an attempt to contribute to the body of studies challenging the paradigm of African political backwardness that has dominated Africanist political science. It moves from the shortcomings in the literature about the poverty-democracy link and raises the question whether African poor are so backwarded to be unable to ask for democracy. The logistic regression analyses performed using data mainly from four waves of the Afrobarometer surveys (2000-2008) reveals that poverty instead of being an obstacle can sometimes stimulate demand for democracy. Such a result provides further support to the body of studies calling into question the paradigm of African political backwardness because it shows that even poor Africans should not be excluded from the possibility to ask for democracy. ····· 1036199799

Each actor tries to maximize his own interests at the expense of the others. 3) The GLR and the DRC will continue to be a centre of conflict as it is a reservoir of minerals such as cobalt, tantalum, copper, etc. that are highly needed by Western and Eastern powers as well as MNCs.

A middle power in this thesis means a state which meets three main criteria when declaring foreign policy doctrine and conducting foreign policy, namely: (1) adhering to multilateral frameworks and international organisations (2) being largely independent from great powers` influence and being able to criticise and oppose great powers on some occasions in order to maintain the orderliness of international relations and (3) being a good international citizen in the sense that, apart from its own interests, it must also be aware of the interests of others such as protecting the environment and using its power to protect the weak against the strong. When applying these three criteria to analyse foreign policy doctrine and practices under the Howard government, some aspects and some practices corresponded with the criteria of a middle power while others did not at all. Therefore, this thesis concludes that Australia under the Howard government was not a constant middle power. ····· 1036199534

für 60.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Theologische Zwietracht und religiöse Gewalt erschütterten die soziale und politische Ordnung der europäischen Staatenwelt im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert schwer. Ausgehend von der französischen Monarchie arbeitet Mona Garloff die europäischen Verflechtungen der einzelnen Konfliktfelder heraus. Lösungsstrategien in Form einer stabilen Friedensordnung wurden von den Zeitgenossen über nationale Ausgangskontexte hinweg diskutiert. Ein maßgeblicher Protagonist der Debatten über Irenik war der französische Gelehrte und Diplomat Jean Hotman (1552-1636). Gesandtschaftsreisen nach England, in die Niederlande und ins Reich förderten seine Auseinandersetzung mit verschiedenen Modellen religionspolitischen Friedens und trugen zum Aufbau eines gelehrten Netzwerkes bei. Mona Garloff nimmt eine breit angelegte Einordnung von Hotmans Werk in die Wissenskultur des Späthumanismus vor und unterstreicht die politischen Implikationen der Idee der Kircheneinheit. Ihre Studie leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Geschichte religiöser Pluralität jenseits konfessioneller Grenzen im frühneuzeitlichen Europa. ····· 1036194025
für 55.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Welche Bilder machten sich EuropäerInnen von Europa Von dieser Frage ausgehend untersucht Eugen Pfister österreichische, französische, deutsche und britische Wochenschauen der Nachkriegszeit: Viele EuropäerInnen machten sich im Kino ein erstes `Bild` von den europäischen Gemeinschaften, das im weiteren Verlauf zur Grundlage ihrer Meinungen und Überzeugungen wurde. Dies gilt insbesondere für die ArbeiterInnen und KleinbürgerInnen Europas, deren Wahrnehmung des Integrationsprozesses von der Integrationsforschung bisher kaum beachtet wurde. Für eine Rekonstruktion des Europadiskurses jenseits intellektueller Zirkel bieten Wochenschauen deshalb eine lohnende Untersuchungsquelle. Pfister zeigt zudem, dass die audiovisuelle Repräsentation Europas der 1950er Jahre als ökonomische und politische Gemeinschaft nicht nur das Ergebnis eines politischen Diskurses ist, sondern immer auch einer ikonographischen Tradition verpflichtet war.

Insbesondere in der heutigen `postnationalen Konstellation` (Habermas) der Globalisierung scheint der Bezug auf die Nation als gesellschaftlicher Kitt ausgedient zu haben. Zur selben Zeit jedoch sind Versuche von Seiten unterschiedlicher staatlicher sowie zivilgesellschaftlicher Akteure zu beobachten, einen neuen allgemeingültigen `Monomythos` (Marquard) zu etablieren. Diese Rekonstruktionsversuche unter den Bedingungen spätmoderner Mediengesellschaften werfen eine Reihe von Fragen auf: Worin unterscheiden sich diese Mythenrekonstruktionen von den früheren Nationalmythen der Moderne Von welchen Akteuren gehen diese Rekonstruktionen aus Welche Ideologien und Überzeugungen liegen ihnen zu Grunde Welche Ressourcen und Medien werden im Kampf um die Deutungsmacht bezüglich der nationalen Geschichte eingesetzt Diesen Fragen widmet sich der Band, der die aktuelle Erinnerungspolitik auch aus der Perspektive der europäischen Ethnologie betrachtet. ····· 1036193994· 1 · ::::: · 18 ·· 19 ·· 20 ·· 21 ·· 22 ·· 23 ·· 24 · ::::: · 41 ·
