Forsiden af Kuml 2022 prydes af en jernlænke, som arkæologer fra Museet Sønderskov udgravede i 2021 på en mark udenfor landsbyen Fæsted i Sønderjylland. Det usædvanlige fund var på Slots- og Kulturstyrelsens top-10-liste over årets vigtigste arkæologiske fund og er måske et bevis på, at Romerriget har hentet slaver i det såkaldte Barbaricum. I årbogen kan du læse resultaterne fra undersøgelserne af den mulige slavelænke sammen med fem andre spændende artikler om dansk og nordeuropæisk arkæologi. Kuml 2022 indeholder også anmeldelser af væsentlige arkæologiske udgivelser.

Gefjon – Arkæologiske studier og rapporter er et tidsskrift for arkæologiske emner. Vi publicerer bidrag fra hele Danmark, og som omhandler alt fra de ældste perioder til i dag. Bidragene kan være egentlige videnskabelige studier af arkæologiske problemstillinger såvel som rapporter, som i en mere foreløbig form behandler for eksempel enkeltstående lokaliteter, individuelle genstande, genstandsgrupper og projekter under udvikling. Både studier og rapporter bliver fagfællebedømt efter gældende praksis. Derudover modtager vi også gerne kommentarer og replikker uden for det fagfællebedømte felt. Artiklerne i dette sjette nummer handler om: • En vestsjællandsk middelalderbeby...
Der er forskellige meninger inden for NATO vedr. atomvåbenpolitikken: USA ønsker afskrækkelsespolitikken udvidet til Vest-Europa, nogle vestlige lande er enige heri, men bange for, at en atomkrig kan blive udkæmpet i Europa; og andre lande, herunder Storbritannien, søger en uafhængig atomslagstyrke, men uden at skulle stå alene over for Sovjetunionen.
The Viking Age was ignited by the art of building seaworthy sailing ships and the skills to sail them on the open sea. The growth in seafaring, trade, piracy, and exploration that began to gather momentum during the 8th century CE was not limited to Europe's northern seas, however. Ships, laden with cargo and with seafarers who met foreign cultures, created unexpected connections between people from the Arctic Circle to the oceans south of the equator. Travel accounts have handed down glimpses of these voyages to the present day. However, it is archaeological discoveries in particular which uncover the story of Viking-Age seafaring and voyages of exploration. The World in the Viking Age reveals a global history concerning ships, people and objects on the move. It is a story that challenges entrenched ideas about the past and present, and the skills and opportunities of previous generations.
This book provides an account of the development of European culture and society during the Bronze Age, the time span between c. 2000 and 700 BC. It was a period of remarkable innovation, seen for instance in the development and growth of metallurgy as a major industry, the spread of trading contacts, the origins of urbanism and the beginnings of social stratification. The study is divided chronologically into two, the earlier and later Bronze Age, giving a clear picture of the nature of the radical changes which occurred in the period as a whole. The geographical area covered, from the Atlantic shores across Europe into the Soviet Union and from northern Scandinavia to the Mediterranean, is...

Today, deliberative democracy is the most widely discussed theory of democracy. Its proponents argue that important decisions of law and policy should ideally turn not on the force of numbers but on the force of the better argument. However, it continues to strike some as little more than wishful thinking. In this new book, Ian O’Flynn examines how the concept has developed over recent decades, the family disagreements which have emerged, and the criticisms that have been levelled at it. Grappling with the familiar charge that ordinary people lack the motivation and capacity for meaningful deliberation, O’Flynn considers the example of deliberative polls and citizens’ assemblies and critically assesses how such forums can fit within a broader democratic system. He then considers the implications of deliberative democracy for multicultural and multi-ethnic societies before turning to the prospects for the most ambitious deliberative project of all: global deliberative democracy. This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of democratic theory, as well as anyone who is curious about the prospects for more rational decision-making in an age of populist passion.
An introduction to causal case study methods, complete with step-by-step guidelines and examples
Political and societal elites are increasingly confronted with complex environments in which they need to take collective decisions. Decision-makers are faced with policy issues situated at different intertwined levels which need to be negotiated with different actors. The negotiation and decision-making processes raise issues of legitimacy, leadership and communication. Modern societal systems are not only affected by horizontal specialization and diversity but also by a vertical expansion of governance layers. The national level is no longer the sole, or even the most important, level of governance. In these complex environments, cognitive abilities and personalities of political and socie...
