Fredsstudier og konfliktløsning

This book critically conceptualises positive security and explores multiple areas in global politics where positive security can be studied as an alternative to the existing understandings and practices of security.Structured through a framework on the practice and ethics of everyday security, the book defines positive security as a focal point of contextual and spatiotemporal moments that emerge through encounters with 'the other' in everyday politics. In these moments, an actor can show attentiveness and humility towards 'the other'. In this book, the authors present their own understandings of positive security, offering an in-depth discussion and analysis of the Global North and South divides, delving into many aspects such as human security, migration, gender, Indigenous issues and perceptions of security in the Arctic, and challenges and tensions for and within NATO. The book concludes by reflecting on the significance of positive security, looking at its application for other current issues, including how to understand and manage new (in)security challenges including hybrid threats and warfare.This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international relations, critical security, and peace studies.

""The United States of Europe: On the Eve of the Parliament of Peace"" is a book written by William Thomas Stead in 1899. In this book, Stead envisioned a united Europe, free of war and conflict, with a centralized government and a common currency. He argued that such a union would bring about economic prosperity and social harmony, and would be a bulwark against the aggression of other nations. Stead's vision was prescient, as it anticipated the formation of the European Union almost a century later. The book is a fascinating historical document, offering insight into the political and social climate of the late 19th century, and the hopes and dreams of those who sought to build a better world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

»Ukraine between Russia and the European Union«: For centuries the Ukrainians tried to make their way as an independent nation. It was not until August 24, 1991 that the Ukrainians were allowed to proclaim Ukraine's independence. With the Orange Revolution in 2004 and the Maidan Revolution in 2013, the Ukrainians showed that it was no longer the post-Soviet elites but the citizens themselves who should bring about change. The country was not allowed to develop in peace, however, as Russian forces annexed the Crimea and caused unrest in eastern Ukraine

Im gegenwärtigen Zeitenlauf gewinnt eine Paradoxie rasant an Bedeutung: Einerseits wächst die Welt in unvorstellbarer Weise zusammen. Andererseits wird die Welt kleinteiliger, weil Kollektive ihre Eigenarten betonen und nach Eigenstaatlichkeit streben. So ist die Gegenwart zunehmend durch Infragestellung und Zerfall von (über)staatlichen Bindungen bestimmt, die Individuen und Gemeinwesen bislang zusammengehalten haben. Tendenzen der Absonderung und Trennung brechen sich Bahn. Der vorliegende Sammelband verbindet Beiträge von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aus unterschiedlichen akademischen Disziplinen, um die Vielfalt von Sezessionsbestrebungen zu analysieren und die Dimensionen dieser Entwicklungen bewusst zu machen. Das Buch bietet somit eine interdisziplinäre Sichtweise auf eine der starken Prägekräfte des 21. Jahrhunderts.

In this handbook, a diverse range of leading scholars consider the social, cultural, economic, political, and developmental underpinnings of peace. This handbook is a much-needed response to the failures of contemporary peacebuilding missions and narrow disciplinary debates, both of which have outlined the need for more interdisciplinary work in International Relations and Peace and Conflict studies. Scholars, students, and policymakers are often disillusioned with universalist and northern-dominated approaches, and a better understanding of the variations of peace and its building blocks, across different regions, is required. Collectively, these chapters promote a more differentiated notion of peace, employing comparative analysis to explain how peace is debated and contested.

Die Beitrage des Bandes untersuchen in einem mediengeschichtlichen Zugriff die Anfangsphase der franzosischen Religionskriege. Sie rucken das Geschehen der Jahre vor der Bartholomausnacht (1572) ins Zentrum der Betrachtung und thematisieren die vielgestaltigen medialen Erscheinungsformen gesellschaftlicher Konfliktkommunikation. Eine von der Forschung bislang wenig beachtete Zeit der dramatischen Geschichte Frankreichs in der zweiten Halfte des 16. Jahrhunderts wird so mit einem bislang nicht systematisch erprobten methodischen Zugang bearbeitet.

Bertha von Suttners klassiker "Ned med våbnene" bygger i høj grad på hendes egne oplevelser som guvernante og de erfaringer, hun havde gjort sig gennem mændene i sin familie, der deltog i de tre krige mellem 1859-1871. I bogen såvel som i sit eget liv raser Bertha von Suttner imod krigen og hele dens væsen. Bogen indeholder både et gennemslagskraftigt budskab om pacifisme, der var med til at ændre samfundsstemningen over for krig, og al det personlige drama og lidenskab, som man kender fra den typiske guvernanteroman.Denne oversættelse er fra 1891Baronesse Bertha von Suttner (1843-1914) var en østrigsk forfatter, kvindesagsforkæmper, underviser og pacifist. Bertha von Suttner var gennem hele sit liv vidne til, at mændene i hendes familie deltog aktivt i det nittende århundredes mange krige, og det gjorde stort indtryk på hende. Hendes modvilje mod krig og kærlighed til freden var inspiration til romanen "Ned med våbnene", der blev en enorm succes både i hendes fædreland, Østrig-Ungarn, og uden for dets grænser. I 1905 modtog Bertha von Suttner Nobels Fredspris for sit store engagement inden for den pacifistiske bevægelse.
