Negotiating Environmental Agreements in Europe
This book aims to further advance analysis on Negotiated Environmental Agreements (NEAs) in a multi-disciplinary and co-ordinated way. The authors advocate increased use of NEAs as policy instruments to deal with environmental problems. The book analyses, both theoretically and through the example of existing European agreements, the critical factors that can influence the performance of a negotiated environmental agreement. Negotiating Environmental Agreements in Europe contains 12 case studies analysing 12 different negotiated agreements in European countries. These are analysed comparatively in order to examine to what extent the different hypotheses postulated in the book are valid.
Kreuzfahrtstadt Hamburg
"Wohl keine andere Hafenstadt der Welt widmet Kreuzfahrtschiffen eine so hohe Aufmerksamkeit wie Hamburg. Die Stadt an der Elbe hat sich in der Vergangenheit zur Metropole des Kreuzfahrtgeschäftes entwickelt - in jedem Jahr kommen mehr Passagiere nach Hamburg. Auch taufen immer mehr Reedereien ihre neuen Schiffe in Hamburg, weil sie sicher sein können, dass zehntausende Besucher bei den oft aufwändigen Zeremonien zuschauen. Dieses Buch gewährt einen Blick hinter die Kulissen des boomenden Geschäftes, gibt Einblicke in unterschiedliche Schiffstypen, erklärt die Abläufe an den Terminals, beschreibt Unternehmen, die im Hintergrund tätig sind und führt auf, welch eine herausfordernde Arbeit es ist, Schiffspassagieren einen unbeschwerten Urlaub zu bereiten."

Total Lawfare
This book advocates for a novel doctrine of ‘total lawfare’ as part of a comprehensive approach to modern hybrid warfare. The book begins by introducing the military concept of ‘limited lawfare’ in the context of modern geopolitical conditions. It proceeds to set out a conceptual history of lawfare in the West, highlighting conceptual shortcomings and NATO’s limited capabilities in this branch of hybrid warfare. It then provides a comparative case study and strategic threat assessment of the Chinese concept of ‘unrestricted lawfare’. Against this, the book grounds an ethical doctrine of ‘total lawfare’ within the Western jurisprudential tradition and translates this into practice as a key pillar of modern defense strategy under the rule of law. The book concludes by advocating for a Thielian ‘New Defense’ industry centered upon ‘total lawfare’ as a legitimate and effective Western response to enemy aggression. The book will be of interest to academics, policy-makers, and students working in the fields of lawfare, jurisprudence, and military law.
Fluorinated Materials for Energy Conversion
Fluorinated Materials for Energy Conversion offers advanced information on the application of fluorine chemistry to energy conversion materials for lithium batteries, fuel cells, solar cells and so on. Fluorine compounds and fluorination techniques have recently gained important roles in improving the electrochemical characteristics of such energy production devices. The book therefore focuses on new batteries with high performance, the improvements of cell performance and the improvement of electrode and cell characteristics. The authors present new information on the effect of fluorine and how to make use of fluorination techniques and fluorine compounds. With emphasis on recent developments, this book is suitable for students, researchers and engineers working in chemistry, materials science and electrical engineering. Contains practical information, supported by examples Provides an update on recent developments in the field Written by specialists working in fluorine chemistry, electrochemistry, polymer and solid state chemistry
Rulership in France, 15th-17th Centuries
The common theme of these essays is the emergence of the modern state in late medieval and renaissance France. They examine, on the one hand, how the image of the king was enhanced in a variety of royal ceremonials as well as in the political writings of Jean Bodin and Cardin le Bret. The limits of the sovereign's authority, on the other hand, were forcefully enunciated in the works of François Hotman and Théodore de Bèze. The stability of the monarchy was maintained by the noblesse de robe, a new form of hereditary nobility that virtually owned the high judicial and administrative offices they held. The last two articles are devoted, first to the author's view of the concept of the French king's "two bodies" and second to the life of his mentor, Ernst H. Kantorowicz, who wrote the seminal work, The King's Two Bodies.
