The Journey from Intergroup Emnity to Peaceful Conflict Handling
Classical approaches to conflict resolution assume that inducing conflict parties to analyse conflict constellations precipitates that the disputants recognise mutually shared needs or interests. Partially in critical reaction towards this assumption, a more recently emerging approach envisages setting up a communicative framework within which the conflict parties are supposed to harmonise their conceptualisations of the conflict. This dissertation, in contrast, argues that work within the frameworks of these classes of approaches is impolitic as long as war-related hostilities stay intact, since conflict parties which see the existence of the adversary as the core of the problem are unlikel...

Western Media on Foreign Crisis
Inhaltsangabe:Der Studiengang International Media Studies wurde in Kooperation von der Deutschen Welle-Akademie, der Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg und der Universität Bonn eingeführt. Introduction: Motivation: As the Russia-Georgia war of 2008 started, I had just arrived in Germany. At the time, nobody ever really believed that military actions would ever take place between the two countries, though there was a lot of talk about the possibility. During the first days of the war, while in Germany, it was challenging to get information from the Georgian media. Later I learned of the hacker attacks on Georgian websites, and also that people in Georgia could not visit any Russian websites. I was ...
Peacebuilding Paradigms
Peacebuilding Paradigms focuses on how seven paradigms from the Comparative Politics, International Relations, and Policy Analysis subfields - Realism, Liberalism, Constructivism, Cosmopolitanism, Critical Theories, Locality, and Policy - analyze peacebuilding. The contributors explore the arguments of each paradigm, and then compare and contrast them. This book suggests that a hybrid approach that incorporates useful insights from each of these paradigms best explains how and why peacebuilding projects and policies succeed in some cases, fail in others, and provide lessons learned. Rather than merely using a theoretical approach, the authors use case studies to demonstrate why a focus on just one paradigm alone as an explanatory model is insufficient. This collection directly at how peacebuilding theory affects peacebuilding policies, and provides recommendations for best practices for future peacebuilding missions.
Handbuch Globale Kompetenz
Ziel des Handbuches ist es, den wissenschaftlichen Forschungsstand zum Thema ‚Globale Kompetenz‘ praxisorientiert darzustellen. Globale Kompetenz beschreibt die Fähigkeit einer Person, weltweit effektiv und positiv mit seinen Mitmenschen umgehen sowie Krisen und Herausforderungen bewältigen zu können. Global kompetente Personen sind offen gegenüber kulturellen Normen und akzeptieren hierdurch geprägte Erwartungen, zum Beispiel hinsichtlich der Sprache, Gestik, Verhaltens- und Umgangsformen, Höflichkeit und Werten. Die Themen orientieren sich an den drei Säulen der Globalen Kompetenz: Nachhaltigkeit, interkulturelle Kompetenz und soziale Verantwortung in einer multi- und interdisziplinären Perspektive aus Psychologie, Soziologie, Politikwissenschaft und den Wirtschaftswissenschaften.
The August War in Georgia: Foreign Media Coverage
Reporting on a foreign war or a crisis is a challenging activity, a true professional test for a journalist. Media is often criticized for promoting violence by its conflict reporting: either by staying detached or by being biased. Peace, or conflict-sensitive, journalism was created for improvement of conflict coverage: it emphasizes the active role of journalists in de-escalation of conflict and encourages them to report on peaceful solutions. This relatively novel approach might be met with skepticism, as it appears too idealistic and demanding to be followed by journalists. In order to verify the applicability of peace journalism, this book presents a comparative analysis of six US, UK a...
