The Broken Promise of Global Advocacy addresses two key normative debates associated with the rise of transnational advocacy: whether global interest communities are biased in favor of wealthier countries; and whether the growth of global advocacy implies the emergence of a global civil society truly representative of global constituencies. The authors address these important debates using original data drawn from a large-scale project which maps all organized interests participating in two international venues: the World Trade Organizations Ministerial Conferences (1995–2017) and the United Nations Climate Summits (1997–2017). They leverage this unique dataset to carry out a systematic ...

»Acht Jahre nach meinem Umzug von New York City nach Berlin verfolgt mich immer noch ein Gefühl der Entfremdung. Nachts wandere ich allein mit der Kamera in der Hand durch die Straßen und versuche, meinen Platz in meinem neuen ›Zuhause‹ zu finden.« Denn was bedeutet »Heimat«, wenn man in einem anderen Land lebt und dort fremd ist, fragt sich hier der Künstler Romeo Alaeff. In der Fremde: Pictures from Home ist die Dokumentation davon ‒ ein eindringlicher, filmisch-anmutender Fotoband über Berlin, gesehen durch die Linse eines ewigen Außenseiters. Alaeffs komplexer familiärer Hintergrund, der sich vom Jemen über die ehemalige UdSSR, Polen, Israel und die Vereinigten Staaten erstreckt, trägt dazu bei, Bilder zu finden, die von einer tiefen Sehnsucht geprägt sind und dabei Themen wie Migration, Zugehörigkeit und Heimatsuche berühren. Geistreiche Essays von Yuval Noah Harari, Christian Rattemeyer, Charles Simic, Eva Hoffman, Rory MacLean, Joseph Kertes und Romeo Alaeff eröffnen dabei einen weiteren Horizont auf das Gesehene.
