Abstract

Nicht nur in den kolonialen Macht- und Handelszentren, auch in der Provinz prägte dieWahrnehmung des Kolonialen den Alltag. So hat die deutsche Kolonialzeit auch in Westfalen und Lippe Spuren hinterlassen: Denkmäler und Straßen ehren koloniale Akteure,ethnographische Objekte in Museen erzählen von "exotischen" Welten. Doch zwischenkolonialer und regionaler Geschichte gibt es noch viele weitere, bislang wenig beachtete Bezüge. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses mit zahlreichen Illustrationen versehenen Bandes stellen Aus- und Rückwirkungen des Kolonialismus auf das Leben in der westfälischen und lippischen Provinz vor: Die Verflechtungen westfälischer Städte mit dem kolonialen Handel, eine kritische Aufarbeitung von Biographien und Netzwerken kolonialer Akteure, die exotisierende und rassifizierende Zurschaustellung von Menschen sowie den Umgang mit Erinnerungsorten und Sammlungen.

Abstract

Die Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie (ANT) zählt zu den meistdiskutierten Theorie- und Methodenansätzen der Gegenwart. In historischen Fallstudien vom Mittelalter bis zum 20. Jahrhundert werden ihre Potentiale für die Geschichtswissenschaft ausgeleuchtet. Das über den Menschen hinaus erweiterte Akteurskonzept der ANT gilt vielen als epistemologische Provokation. Die Ansätze der ANT gehen jedoch weit darüber hinaus und lassen sich weder auf Geschichten vermeintlich zum Leben erweckter Objekte noch auf das Werk Bruno Latours reduzieren. Trotz der Analyse historischer Gegenstände durch einige Akteur-Netzwerk-Theoretiker bleibt die Historizität jedoch eine Art blinder Fleck des Ansatzes. Die Aufsätze des Bandes nehmen dies zum Anlass, um Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der ANT für die historiographische Praxis aufzuzeigen.

Abstract

Over the last eight years the Syrian conflict has developed into one of the worst humanitarian tragedies of modern times. More than half a million victims, 5 million refugees abroad and 6 million internally displaced: the figures only capture part of Syria's catastrophe. In addition, there is the less quantifiable damage to the country's social fabric. Against this dramatic backdrop, this ISPI Report aims to answer a few crucial questions: how can a country whose society has gone through such traumas and destruction reimagine itself and its future? What conditions would allow those Syrians who were forced to leave their homes to return? And what are the regional and international dynamics and interests that will shape Syria's future? The Report provides the reader with key tools to understand where Syria is headed and what can be done to avoid the worst scenarios.

Abstract

In the year we celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the PhD programme in International Politics and Conflict Resolution, this book gathers contributions from the first nine PhDs who successfully completed their studies. The chapters now published are a synthesis of the doctoral theses defended within the context of the PhD programme, noting the patrimony of reflection that has been built, and which since the very beginning has been widening and deepening in thematic and methodological terms. Through these nine studies, we share with the readers’ community a reading of the world that has at its core the building of a multidimensional peace and that expresses the paths taken by this laboratory of debate and reflection that is this PhD programme. Expressing the plurality of approaches that the PhD embraces, these chapters adopt diverse angles regarding approaches to this multidimensional and demanding peace in the contemporary international system.

Abstract

Im Spannungsverhältnis zwischen preußischem Dreiklassenwahlrecht und demokratischem Reichstagswahlrecht entwickelte sich ab 1867 eine Wahlkampfkultur, in der die Zeitungen als Massenmedium nicht nur über das Werben der Parteien berichteten, sondern selbst eine aktive Rolle im Kampf um die Stimmen der Wähler einnahmen. In der preußischen Provinz Schleswig-Holstein besaßen die Wahlkämpfe dabei durch den deutsch-dänischen Nationalitätenstreit eine ganz besondere Brisanz. Trotzdem gilt die schleswig-holsteinische Presse- und Wahlgeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts als bisher kaum erforscht. Die vorliegende Studie nimmt sich dieser Forschungslücke an und verknüpft erstmals beide Themenbereiche. Anhand der Wahlberichterstattung der auflagestärksten Zeitungen zeichnet sie ein lebendiges Bild der damaligen Presselandschaft und zeigt, wie die Zeitungsredaktionen aufs Engste mit den politischen Schaltzentralen verknüpft waren und mit ihren Berichten die Wahlkämpfe massiv beeinflussten.

Abstract

July 1st 1867 is celebrated as Canada's Confederation - the date that Canada became a country. But 1867 was only the beginning. As the country grew from a small dominion to a vast federation encompassing ten provinces, three territories, and hundreds of First Nations, its leaders repeatedly debated Canada's purpose, and the benefits and drawbacks of the choice to be Canadian. Reconsidering Confederation brings together Canada's leading historians to explore how the provinces, territories, and Treaty areas became the political frameworks we know today. In partnership with The Confederation Debates, an ongoing crowdsourced, non-partisan, and non-profit initiative to digitize all of Canada's founding colonial and federal records, this book breaks new ground by integrating the treaties between Indigenous peoples and the Crown into our understanding of Confederation. Rigorously researched and eminently readable, this book traces the unique paths that each province and territory took on their journey to Confederation. It shows the roots of regional and cultural grievances, as vital and controversial in early debates as they are today. Reconsidering Confederation tells the sometimes rocky, complex, and ongoing story of how Canada has become Canada.

Abstract

In 2011, political protests sprang up across the world. In the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, the United States unlikely people sparked or led massive protest campaigns from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. These protests were made up of educated and precariously employed young people who challenged the legitimacy of their political leaders, exposed a failure of representation, and expressed their dissatisfaction with their place in the aftermath of financial and economic crisis. This book interrogates what impacts—if any—this global protest cycle had on politics and policy and shows the sometimes unintended ways it continues to influence contemporary political dynamics throughout the world. Proposing a new framework of analysis that calls attention to the content and claims of protests, their global connections, and the responsiveness of political institutions to protest demands, this is one of the few books that not only asks how protest movements are formed but also provides an in-depth examination of what protest movements can accomplish. With contributions examining the political consequences of protest, the roles of social media and the internet in protest organization, left- and right-wing movements in the United States, Chile’s student movements, the Arab Uprisings, and much more this collection is essential reading for all those interested in the power of protest to shape our world.

Abstract

"Many efforts have been undertaken to address dysfunctional security sector governance in West Africa. However, security sector reform (SSR) has fallen short of radical – transformational – change to the fundamental structures of power and governance in the region. Looking more closely at specific examples of SSR in six West African countries, Learning from West African Experiences in Security Sector Governance explores both progress and reversals in efforts by national stakeholders and their international partners to positively influence security sector governance dynamics. Written by eminent national experts based on their personal experiences of these reform contexts, this study offers new insights and practical lessons that should inform processes to improve democratic security sector governance in West Africa and beyond. “This volume has markedly moved the ball forward in the continuous efforts to better understand SSR experiments, specifically in West Africa. Through what could be dubbed ‘street level analysis of SSR’ (their concept of “micro-dynamics of SSR”), the editors have introduced a perceptive and innovative vista through which to examine and take stock of SSR processes. A must read volume for academics and practitioners of SSR alike in order to integrate the lessons and add to their knowledge base the valuable insights contained in the various chapters.
