European-Russian Energy Relations: from Dependence to Interdependence
Due to the exploitation of international reservoirs, natural energy sources have become rare, disputed among States and therefore strategic. The reliance on these resources is linked to energy security and dependence in both terms of energy imports or exports. Furthermore, the access and reallocation of energy flows entail an alteration of the balance of power among States as well as the raise of national energy security strategies and debates. The aim of this volume is to analyze the evolution of energy relations between the European Union and the Russian Federation from a state of pure Dependence to the establishment of a balanced Interdependence, underling also the challenges facing the EU in terms of dependence and diversifications in the framework or the EU-Russian energy cooperation.
Ethnic Domination in Deeply Divided Places
This volume examines the concept of ethnic domination and its manifestations in Israel (within the Green Line) and Estonia. Ethnic domination is a method of managing ethnic differences in multiethnic contexts through asymmetrical power relations, in accordance with an ethnonationalist ideology, whereby a group is subordinated to another holding the power, albeit not intent to directly eliminate the subaltern. The volume compares the predicament of Israeli Palestinian citizens and Estonian Russian-speakers in different dimensions (state-citizenship, government-parliament, parties). Also, the analysis explains the divergent trajectories of the cases: the tightening of the condition of Israeli Palestinian citizens and the democratization of ethnic politics in Estonia.

Military Cultures in Peace and Stability Operations
As of September 2017, the United Nations alone deployed 110,000 uniformed personnel from 122 countries in fifteen peacekeeping operations worldwide. Soldiers in these missions are important actors who not only have considerable responsibility for implementing peace and stability operations but also have a concomitant influence on their goals and impact. Yet we know surprisingly little about the factors that prompt soldiers' behavior. Despite being deployed on the same mission under similar conditions, various national contingents display significant, systematic differences in their actions on the ground. In Military Cultures in Peace and Stability Operations, Chiara Ruffa challenges the wide...
La traiettoria storica dell’Etiopia di Meles Zenawi
Il volume presenta un inquadramento storico dell’Etiopia contemporanea. Particolare attenzione è data alle dinamiche economico-politiche dal cambio di regime nel 1991 alla morte dello storico leader del TPLF Meles Zenawi nel 2012. Attraverso un’analisi nell’ottica braudeliana della lunga durata, si esamina l’Impero Etiopico sotto Haile Selassie, la Rivoluzione Etiopica del 1974, che portò al governo la giunta militare di stampo sovietico del Derg e la guerra civile che ne scaturì con il movimento guerrigliero maoista del TPLF. Inoltre, si delinea il regime del TPLF mediante un esame dei suoi tre concetti portanti – democrazia rivoluzionaria, federalismo etnico e stato sviluppista – e delle tre teorie che lo definiscono – neo-patrimonialismo, capitalismo avanguardista e mercato politico.
