Erleben Sie die faszinierende Lebensgeschichte, das Curriculum Vitae von Prof. Dr. phil. Wilhelm Dickhuth, der von 1858 bis 1929 im Emsland lebte. Diese beeindruckende Biografie, von der Herausgeberin als"Ein Lehrer für die Ewigkeit" beschrieben, wird durch zahlreiche original handgezeichneten Illustrationen und Fotos veranschaulicht. Wilhelms Leben spiegelt seine Kindheit, seine starke Verbundenheit zur Heimat, seine familiären Werte, seinen unermüdlichen Wissensdurst und sein Streben nach persönlichem Erfolg wider.Sein Lebensmotto "Nunquam retrorsum" -niemals zurück- verleiht ihm die Entschlossenheit, seinen eingeschlagenen Weg zu verfolgen.Nach dem Besuch der Schulen in Papenburg und Meppen, studiert Wilhelm neuere Sprachen an der Universität Göttingen und der Königlichen Akademie Münster.

Traditionally, Germany has been considered a minor player in Pacific history: its presence there was more limited than that of other European nations, and whereas its European rivals established themselves as imperial forces beginning in the early modern era, Germany did not seriously pursue colonialism until the nineteenth century. Yet thanks to recent advances in the field emphasizing transoceanic networks and cultural encounters, it is now possible to develop a more nuanced understanding of the history of Germans in the Pacific. The studies gathered here offer fascinating research into German missionary, commercial, scientific, and imperial activity against the backdrop of the Pacific's overlapping cultural circuits and complex oceanic transits.
From the moment of its inception, the East German state sought to cast itself as a clean break from the horrors of National Socialism. Nonetheless, the precipitous rise of xenophobic, far-right parties across the present-day German East is only the latest evidence that the GDR's legacy cannot be understood in isolation from the Nazi era nor the political upheavals of today. This provocative collection reflects on the heretofore ignored or repressed aspects of German mainstream society--including right-wing extremism, anti-Semitism and racism--to call for an ambitious renewal of historical research and political education to place East Germany in its proper historical context.
A stunning look at World War II from the other side...From the turret of a German tank, Colonel Hans von Luck commanded Rommel's 7th and then 21st Panzer Division. El Alamein, Kasserine Pass, Poland, Belgium, Normandy on D-Day, the disastrous Russian front--von Luck fought there with some of the best soldiers in the world. German soldiers.Awarded the German Cross in Gold and the Knight's Cross, von Luck writes as an officer and a gentleman. Told with the vivid detail of an impassioned eyewitness, his rare and moving memoir has become a classic in the literature of World War II, a first-person chronicle of the glory--and the inevitable tragedy--of a superb soldier fighting Hitler's war.
En Syrie, aucune intervention humanitaire autorisée par le Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies n'a été lancée jusqu'à présent. Les tentatives de cessez-le-feu entre les parties impliquées ont échoué à plusieurs reprises. Cette étude examine le bilan de trois acteurs internationaux en ce qui concerne la doctrine de la responsabilité de protéger (R2P). Plus précisément, elle examine l'option consistant à institutionnaliser la responsabilité en matière d'intervention humanitaire. Pour ce faire, la doctrine de la responsabilité de protéger est analysée à travers deux organisations internationales, l'OTAN et l'UE, et un acteur national important, les États-Unis. Pour les États-Unis, les facteurs géopolitiques jouent un rôle majeur, et il est expliqué que la structure politique et les décisions du président sont cruciales pour les choix du pays. Pour l'OTAN, le manque de légitimité joue un rôle central en ce qui concerne la R2P, ainsi que le précédent historique de son implication dans le conflit en Libye en 2011. Enfin, l'UE est décrite en mettant l'accent sur les limites institutionnelles et son potentiel à devenir une autorité normative en matière de R2P. L'analyse de ces acteurs internationaux permet de replacer le conflit syrien dans une large perspective internationale.
In Siria, finora non è stato avviato alcun intervento umanitario autorizzato dal Consiglio di Sicurezza delle Nazioni Unite. I tentativi di cessate il fuoco tra le parti coinvolte sono falliti ripetutamente. Questo studio analizza tre attori internazionali in relazione al loro operato in merito alla dottrina della responsabilità di proteggere (R2P). Più specificamente, viene esaminata l'opzione di istituzionalizzare la responsabilità per l'intervento umanitario. A tal fine, la dottrina R2P viene analizzata attraverso due organizzazioni internazionali, la NATO e l'UE, e un importante attore nazionale, gli Stati Uniti. Per gli Stati Uniti, i fattori geopolitici giocano un ruolo fondamentale e viene spiegato che la struttura politica e le decisioni del presidente sono cruciali per le scelte del Paese. Per la NATO, la mancanza di legittimità gioca un ruolo centrale quando si parla di R2P, insieme al precedente storico del suo coinvolgimento nel conflitto in Libia nel 2011. Infine, l'UE è descritta con enfasi sui limiti istituzionali e sul suo potenziale di diventare un'autorità normativa in materia di R2P. Attraverso l'analisi di questi attori internazionali, si cerca di collocare il conflitto siriano in un'ampia prospettiva internazionale.
In Syrien wurde bisher keine vom Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen genehmigte humanitäre Intervention eingeleitet. Versuche, einen Waffenstillstand zwischen den beteiligten Parteien zu erreichen, sind wiederholt gescheitert. In dieser Studie werden drei internationale Akteure im Hinblick auf ihre Haltung zur R2P-Doktrin (Responsibility to Protect) untersucht. Insbesondere wird die Option untersucht, die Verantwortung für humanitäre Interventionen zu institutionalisieren. Zu diesem Zweck wird die R2P-Doktrin anhand von zwei internationalen Organisationen, der NATO und der EU, und einem wichtigen nationalen Akteur, den Vereinigten Staaten, analysiert. Für die USA spielen geopolitische Faktoren eine große Rolle, und es wird erläutert, dass die politische Struktur und die Entscheidungen des Präsidenten für die Entscheidungen des Landes entscheidend sind. Für die NATO spielt der Mangel an Legitimität eine zentrale Rolle, wenn es um R2P geht, zusammen mit dem historischen Präzedenzfall ihrer Beteiligung am Konflikt in Libyen 2011. Schließlich wird die EU beschrieben, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf den institutionellen Beschränkungen und ihrem Potenzial liegt, eine normative Autorität für R2P zu werden. Durch die Analyse dieser internationalen Akteure wird der Versuch unternommen, den Syrienkonflikt in eine breite internationale Perspektive zu stellen.

Was keiner für möglich gehalten hätte, ist eingetreten. Hauptkommissar Hobelsberger hat den Polizeidienst quittiert. Auf der Suche nach seinem Seelenfrieden hat er sich ein neues Leben aufgebaut, das ihn vollkommen erfüllt. Doch seine kriminalistische Intuition lässt ihn auch an seinem derzeitigen Arbeitsplatz ein Verbrechen wittern.Zwei spurlos verschwundene Personen beschäftigen ihn - und bald auch die Mordkommission in Passau. Schließlich gab es schon vor ein paar Jahren ein ähnlich gelagertes Szenario, das nie aufgeklärt werden konnte. Als eine junge Frau ermordet wird, die Hobelsberger etwas anvertrauen wollte, gerät sein beschauliches Leben gehörig ins Wanken.Und unversehens ist er wieder im Ermittlermodus...Gibt es einen Mörder in seinem neuen Arbeitsumfeld und welche Bedeutung hat eine zutiefst verstörende Geschichte, die sich Ende der 60er Jahre in dem kleinen Örtchen Fürsteneck zugetragen hat?Der vierte Fall, der genaugenommen gar nicht sein Fall ist, bringt nicht nur Hobelsberger, sondern auch das Kripo-Team an ganz persönliche Grenzen und weit darüber hinaus.
Die Studie untersucht erstmals umfassend die Bedeutung literarischer Mehrsprachigkeit in der deutschen Literatur des 20.¿21. Jahrhunderts. Behandelt werden u.a. Franz Kafka, Dada, Mascha Kaléko, Paul Celan, W.G. Sebald und Yoko Tawada. Gezeigt wird, dass mehrsprachiges Schreiben nicht nur die Normen Einsprachigkeit und Nationalliteratur unterläuft, sondern poetologisch Fragen von Bedeutungsgenerierung und sprachlicher Materialität reflektiert.

Ein kaputtes Handy, ein verkorkstes erstes Date und Hausarrest ¿ das ist die ernüchternde Bilanz eines Tages, der eigentlich mit einem Kuss von Ginas Crush enden sollte. Dass dieser Tag stattdessen zum Desaster wurde, verdankt sie einzig und allein ihrem neuen Englischlehrer Dominik Behrens, der die Mädchenherzen höher schlagen lässt. Für Gina hingegen ist er nichts weiter als ein unfähiger Referendar ¿ bis zu dem Tag, an dem er ihretwegen die Regeln bricht und sie sich in ihn verliebt.Gefangen zwischen verbotener Anziehung, tiefen Gefühlen und dem mahnenden Verstand entsteht eine Liebe, die nicht sein darf.Band 1 der Enemies-to-Lovers-Reihe

In the context of Turkey's accession to the EU, the issue of potential migration from Turkey and its impact upon European labor markets became one of the concerns of the EU, considering Turkey's growing population and young labor force. In 2011, half a century after the bi-lateral agreement between Turkey and Germany on labor recruitment in 1961, migration plays a key role in relations of Turkey with the EU and will even increase its significance - not necessarily for the next fifty years but certainly for the next decade. This book touches upon various aspects of the ongoing debate about the effects of Turkey's accession to the EU upon the migration flows and sheds light on various dimensions of current panorama, addresses policy implications as well as future challenges and opportunities.
Das Buch ""Das Unmoralische Der Todesstrafe"" wurde im Jahr 1841 von Michael Petocz ver������ffentlicht. Es handelt sich um eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit der Todesstrafe und ihrer moralischen Legitimit�����t. Der Autor argumentiert, dass die Todesstrafe als eine Form der Bestrafung nicht nur unmoralisch, sondern auch ineffektiv und ungerecht ist. Er setzt sich mit verschiedenen Argumenten f�����r und gegen die Todesstrafe auseinander und zeigt auf, dass es keine �����berzeugenden Gr�����nde gibt, die f�����r ihre Anwendung sprechen. Das Buch ist ein wichtiges Werk der Abolitionisten-Bewegung und hat dazu beigetragen, die ������ffentliche Debatte �����ber die Todesstrafe zu beeinflussen.This Book Is In German.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
