Southern Europe? - Italy, Spain, Portugal, And Greece From The 1950s Until The Present Day

41,99€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Gegenwärtig erlebt der Süden Europas in der öffentlichen Debatte eine neue Konjunktur. Mit Vorliebe wird dabei ein europäischer Nord-Süd-Gegensatz heraufbeschworen, ohne jedoch auf seine lange Geschichte zu blicken. Wirtschaftlich und politisch unterentwickelt, unterschieden sich Italien, Spanien, Portugal und Griechenland nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg von den sogenannten westeuropäischen Gesellschaften. Zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts schien diese Ungleichheit überwunden. Nun droht die Schuldenkrise den Kontinent erneut zu spalten. Die Beiträge hinterfragen gängige Annahmen und Bilder von "Südeuropa " und ergründen, inwiefern der "Süden" einen homogenen Raum mit strukturellen Gemeinsamkeiten darstellt.

 Wir leben in einer Übergangszeit: Die unipolare Weltordnung unter hegemonialer Durchsetzungskraft der USA weicht einer multipolaren Ordnung. Diese neue Ordnung verfügt weder über einen umfassenden gesellschaftspolitischen Konsens noch basiert sie auf gefestigten Institutionen. Sie ist weitestgehend durch partikulare Interessen bestimmt. Deshalb müssen wir annehmen, dass sie kaum in der Lage sein wird, territoriale Sicherheit und friedliche Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten zu gewährleisten. In diesem Prozess scheint die Europäische Union, aber - mit Einschränkungen - auch Russland, zwischen China und die USA zu geraten.

Fragile States In An Unequal World - The Role Of The G7+ In International Diplomacy And Development Cooperation

de Isabel Rocha De Siqueira

~~6,99€~~ 5,59€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This is a book about people. ‘Fragile States’ in an Unequal World: The Role of the g7+ in International Diplomacy and Development Cooperation introduces the members of the g7+, a group formed by 20 conflict-affected states: why they came to believe in politics and policy; how they feel about their work, their family and their communities; and what they want to leave behind for the next generations It is the story of their personal and collective values, their mistakes, and the challenges they faced, and it will resonate with anyone who has tried to organize and work with a group of very different people. This book is also a contribution for those seeking to influence international policy, especially from a disadvantageous position. It explores how to find your voice, use your survival skills, work with passion, decide how much to concede and act responsibly. Together, these lessons illuminate the paths that individual members have walked as they found their own voices, as well as how the g7+ fights to speak collectively. The book ends with a glimpse of the way forward, as Isabel Rocha de Siqueira encourages younger generations to engage with politics and policy generously, with hope for the future. Combining literature and hard facts – along with other elements such as illustrations, cartoon strips and photographs to tell the previously untold stories of public servants in poor, conflict-affected countries, the book offers an original (and very human) micro and macro perspective on the politics of development. It will be of interest to professionals in major development organisations, students and professors in development courses, policymakers, public servants, civil society, activists working for major international NGOs, and journalists who report on the development industry, as well as those with a general interest in international development cooperation, international diplomacy and other related fields.

We have resigned ourselves to this unending war as the only way forward. But we have tried this. We have tried war. The only war that is won is one that leads to peace. On paper Aziz and Maoz should not be friends. Aziz’s brother was killed by Israeli forces, and Maoz lost both his parents in the 7 October 2023 attacks. In The Future is Peace, these two lifelong peace activists take readers on a searing journey to understand this holy, bloodstained land and explore each other’s personal and national histories. Pairing unapologetic candour and inspirational prose, Abu Sarah and Inon are sending a message to humanity that the people have the power to make change. Peace is achievable, not just between Palestinians and Israelis, but throughout the world.

Ten Questions: American Misunderstandings About China

de China Institutes Of Contemporary International Relations Cicir

~~129,09€~~ 103,27€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The rise of China is perhaps the greatest historical event in the contemporary world. Therefore, to explore and understand the rise of China is the most important task of the times. In the discussion of China's rise, various theories of "China Threat," "China Collapse," and "China Responsibility" have emerged in the western world. Certain specious arguments have filled the US policy circle and the public. Some made simple grafts and bold "revisions" on history, producing the fallacy of "America rebuilding China." Some purposefully switched the concept, distorting the great historical process of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation into a well-planned "Hundred-Year Marathon" that aims to replace the US hegemony. While reluctant to judge the above interpretations as fabricated out of thin air, we would rather take them as misunderstanding or misreading due to the lack of in-depth knowledge on "complex China." This essay collection restores the facts as they are, or rather, presents opinions from the perspective of Chinese scholars. In doing so, we seek not to persuade or convince anyone, but to make Chinese voices heard in a truthful, objective, and rational way, and look forward to further discussions.

China'S Interest In Central Asia - Economic Cooperation, Energy Security, And The Impact Of The Belt And Road Initiative

de Jia Wenshan e Sahibzada Muhammad Usman

~~91,19€~~ 72,95€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The dissolution of the Soviet Union marked a transformative era for Central Asia, elevating its international prominence and shifting its role from a historically marginalized region to a key player in global geopolitics. Comprising Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, this region is now at the center of strategic discourse, particularly within the framework of Sir Halford Mackinder's "Heartland Theory," which underscores the supremacy of land power over maritime dominance. China's energy policies in Central Asia are deeply intertwined with its foreign policy objectives, regional security strategies, and economic ambitions. The "Western Development" strategy seeks to stabilize China's Northwestern region, particularly Xinjiang, by fostering economic prosperity in neighboring Central Asian nations. Furthermore, China's counterterrorism initiatives align with regional security concerns, facilitating bilateral and multilateral partnerships through organizations like the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). As the 21st century unfolds, Central Asia remains at the epicenter of global energy politics, regional security dynamics, and international economic competition. With China, Russia, and the United States each vying for strategic leverage, the region's future will be shaped by a complex interplay of cooperation, competition, and evolving geopolitical realities. This book, with a focus on China and its Belt & Road Initiative in Central Asia, provides an in-depth analysis of these dynamics, offering insights into the historical, economic, and strategic forces that continue to redefine Central Asias role in global affairs. "The evolving geopolitical landscape of Central Asia has underscored its strategic significance in global affairs. This scholarly work provides a comprehensive analysis of the regions transformation post-Soviet Union, offering valuable insights into the intricate balance of power involving China, Russia, and Western influences. By addressing critical themes such as energy security, regional stability, and economic integration, this study makes a significant contribution to understanding the complex interplay between geopolitics and geo-economics in Central Asia." - Muhammad Munir, Professor of Political Science and Dean of International Relations Department, Muslim Youth University
