Unpacking EU Policy-Making towards China
This book examines different intellectual frameworks for international relations, including the bureaucratic politics model, neorealism, and institutionalism as tools for understanding the European Union’s (EU) China policy. Based on a study of three political economy-related cases, it demonstrates what approaches not just apply, but apply best in various stages of the policy cycle, why some models apply to several policy stages, and why some seem to work better than others in certain policy stages. The three cases include the EU-China solar panel dispute (2012–2018), the EU investigation into Chinese mobile telecommunications networks (2012–2014), and the EU’s response to China’s rise in Africa via the European Commission initiated EU-China-Africa trilateral cooperation initiative in 2008. Those interested in EU-China affairs can apply this innovative analytical framework to these three cases and a wide range of other issues; scholars, journalists, diplomats, and businesspeople will find this book of value.

Die Außenpolitik der USA
Die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika nehmen in den internationalen Beziehungen schon seit Jahrzehnten eine herausragende Stellung ein. Das, was die USA von anderen Großmächten unterscheidet, ist die Kombination aus überragenden Fähigkeiten in vielen Bereichen: Sie verfügen über große militärische Projektionsmacht, wirtschaftliche Stärke und üben nicht zuletzt durch ihre kulturelle Anziehungskraft internationalen Einfluss aus. Die USA agieren global und umfassend. Was immer die amerikanische Regierung unternimmt oder auch unterlässt, es hat nachhaltige Wirkung auf das internationale System.In der wissenschaftlichen und praktischen Auseinandersetzung mit amerikanischer Außenpolitik ...
Politics of Religious Freedom
In a remarkably short period of time, the realization of religious freedom has achieved broad consensus as an indispensable condition for peace. Faced with widespread reports of religious persecution, public and private actors around the world have responded with laws and policies designed to promote freedom of religion. But what precisely is being promoted? What are the cultural and epistemological assumptions underlying this response, and what forms of politics are enabled in the process? The fruits of the three-year Politics of Religious Freedom research project, the contributions to this volume unsettle the assumption—ubiquitous in policy circles—that religious freedom is a singular ...
The Emancipation of Europe's Muslims
The Emancipation of Europe's Muslims traces how governments across Western Europe have responded to the growing presence of Muslim immigrants in their countries over the past fifty years. Drawing on hundreds of in-depth interviews with government officials and religious leaders in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Morocco, and Turkey, Jonathan Laurence challenges the widespread notion that Europe’s Muslim minorities represent a threat to liberal democracy. He documents how European governments in the 1970s and 1980s excluded Islam from domestic institutions, instead inviting foreign powers like Saudi Arabia, Algeria, and Turkey to oversee the practice of Islam am...
Church, nation and race
Church, nation and race compares the worldviews and factors that promoted or, indeed, opposed antisemitism amongst Catholics in Germany and England after the First World War. As a prequel to books on Hitler, fascism and genocide, the book turns towards ideas and attitudes that preceded and shaped the ideologies of the 1920s and 1940s. Apart from the long tradition of Catholic anti-Jewish prejudices, the book discusses new and old alternatives to European modernity offered by Catholics in Germany and England. This book is a political history of ideas that introduces Catholic views of modern society, race, nation and the ‘Jewish question’. It shows to what extent these views were able to inform political and social activity. Church, nation and race will interest academics and students of antisemitism, European history, German and British history.
The Cambridge History of Christianity: Volume 8, World Christianities C.1815-c.1914
This is the first scholarly treatment of nineteenth-century Christianity to discuss the subject in a global context. Part I analyses the responses of Catholic and Protestant Christianity to the intellectual and social challenges presented by European modernity. It gives attention to the explosion of new voluntary forms of Christianity and the expanding role of women in religious life. Part II surveys the diverse and complex relationships between the churches and nationalism, resulting in fundamental changes to the connections between church and state. Part III examines the varied fortunes of Christianity as it expanded its historic bases in Asia and Africa, established itself for the first time in Australasia, and responded to the challenges and opportunities of the European colonial era. Each chapter has a full bibliography providing guidance on further reading.
A History of Ireland, 1800–1922
The years of Ireland’s union with Great Britain are most often regarded as a period of great turbulence and conflict. And so they were. But there are other stories too, and these need to be integrated in any account of the period. Ireland’s progressive primary education system is examined here alongside the Famine; the growth of a happily middle-class Victorian suburbia is taken into account as well as the appalling Dublin slum statistics. In each case, neither story stands without the other. This study synthesises some of the main scholarly developments in Irish and British historiography and seeks to provide an updated and fuller understanding of the debates surrounding nineteenth- and early twentieth-century history.
BIM - Das digitale Miteinander
BIM verändert nicht nur Arbeitsmethoden, sondern auch das berufliche Miteinander. Ein entscheidender Faktor ist dabei die Kommunikation, da die verschiedenen Disziplinen stärker mit- statt nacheinander agieren. Dieses Buch versteht sich als Management-Handbuch, in dem die Autoren sehr anschaulich zeigen, wie BIM in Unternehmen und Projekten implementiert werden kann. Sie benennen Ansatzpunkte und gemeinsame Begrifflichkeiten, die das bisherige Miteinander von Planern, Bauherren, Ingenieuren und Fachplanern verändern. Der Inhalt des Buches wird durchgehend von Best Practice Beispielen begleitet. Sie verdeutlichen, wie zielführendes Arbeiten mit BIM möglich wird. Aus dem Inhalt: //BIM - Grundlagen und Begriffe //Fehler in der Kommunikation vermeiden //Miteinander interdisziplinär arbeiten //Prozesse, Richtlinien, Technologien //BIM-Implementierung //Change-Management //BIM-Manager //Qualifikation, Zertifizierung und Ausbildung.
