Gleichsam als Paradies von überwältigender Schönheit bietet sich Neuseeland dar, das in die Mythologie als „Land der langen weißen Wolke“ (Aotearoa) eingegangen ist. Wohl kaum irgendwo sonst auf dem Erdenrund ist die Naturlandschaft auf relativ engem Raum vielgestaltiger und abwechslungsreicher als auf diesen beiden Inseln im Südpazifik. Hier, im Kampfraum zweier Kontinentalplatten, kann man das Werden einer Landschaft fühlbar miterleben. Hier bebt öfter mal die Erde, spritzen Geysire hoch in die Lüfte, blubbert heißer Schlamm aus Erdtrichtern und speit der eine oder andere Vulkan gelegentlich Feuer. In vergleichsweise geringer Entfernung von diesen „Hot Spots“ türmen sich die majestätischen Gipfel der Southern Alps auf. Imposante Fjorde und dereinst von Gletschern ausgehobelte Flußtäler geben Zeugnis davon, daß es auch auf der Südhalbkugel Eiszeiten gab. Hier immergrüner Urwald mit mehrere Meter hohen Farnen und Kauri-Baumriesen, dort wüstes Ödland, hier glitzernde Gletscher, schroffe Berggipfel und kristallklare Flüsse, dort weiße und goldfarbene Sandstrände am wohltemperierten, türkisblauen Meer, hier lichte Parklandschaften und sattgrüne Schafweiden, dort dichter Wirtschaftswald, gepflegte Weingärten und Obstplantagen. Diese Gegensätzlichkeit kann man nur in Neuseeland erleben. Die frühen polynesischen Einwanderer hatten sich schnell auf ihre neue Heimat im Land der langen weißen Wolke eingestellt und entwickelten bald eine eigenständige Kultur. Sie machten regen Gebrauch von den schier unerschöpflichen Ressourcen der üppigen Eilande. Aus dem Überfluß an Holz fertigten sie mächtige Kiegskanus und bauten imposanten Versammlungshäuser. Sie wußten die zahlreichen heißen Quellen ebenso für sich zu nutzen, wie Pounamu, die neuseeländische Jade aus der sie kunstfertig Waffen und Schmuck schnitzten. Als vor gut zwei Jahrhunderten die ersten Europäer neuseeländischen Boden betraten, folgte ein rücksichtsloser und ungleicher Kampf. Die Auseinandersetzung endete damit, daß in nur wenigen Dekaden jegliche kulturelle und architektonische Identität der Ureinwohner verdrängt und durch europäische Muster ersetzt war. Seitdem befindet sich das Land in einem neuerlichen Prozeß der Selbstfindung, der bis zum heutigen Tage anhält. [...]

This important new book deals with the changing nature of war in the post-Cold War era and the emergence of new forms of warfare in which warlords, mercenaries and terrorists play an increasingly important role. In the modern era, warfare came to play a crucial role in the formation of states, whereas the new wars emerging at the beginning of the 21st century have mostly gone together with the failure or collapse of states. The author draws out the key shifts involved in this process: from symmetrical conflicts between states to asymmetrical global relationships of force; from national armies to increasingly private or commercial bands of warlords, child soldiers and mercenaries; from pitched battles to protracted conflicts in which there is often little fighting and most of the violence is directed against civilians. Changes in weapons technology have combined with complex economic factors to make the prospect of endlessly simmering wars a real danger in the years to come. Against this background, the author outlines the rise of a novel form of international terrorism, conceived more as a political method of communication than as an element in a military strategy. The resulting challenges faced by Western governments, and the costs and benefits associated with any response, are taken up in a concluding section that contrasts the characteristic European and American approaches and examines the implications for the future of international law. This book will be of important to students of political science, international relations, war and peace studies, conflict studies and peace studies. It will also appeal to the general reader with an interest in this topical subject.

'Gorgeous and heightened and fully of glittering icy people' TIMES 'I loved this smart and subtle exploration of modern motherhood and womanhood' Daisy Buchanan 'How can anyone leave someone they love?' Martin Berg is falling into crisis. Decades ago, he was an aspiring writer, his girlfriend was the wildly intelligent Cecilia Wickner, and his best friend was the hellraising artist Gustav Becker. But Martin's manuscript is now languishing in a drawer, Gustav has stopped answering his calls, and Cecilia has vanished – leaving him to raise their children alone. Cecilia: an eccentric wife and absent mother, a woman who was perhaps only true to herself. When Rakel stumbles across a clue as to why her mother left, she sets out to fill the gaps in her family's story and discovers that some questions have no clear answers... __________ PRAISE FOR COLLECTED WORKS: 'Utterly gripping... a magnificent doorstop of a novel' Guardian 'An assured, bittersweet novel that, like youth, seems to have it all' Financial Times 'Blends the thrill of a mystery with the curiosity and depth of philosophical enquiry' New Yorker 'Eminently readable and engrossing' Spectator 'A real knickerbocker glory of a novel... manages to out-Franzen Jonathan Franzen and is addictive as any box-set' The Crack Magazine 'Thrilling, brilliant and immense in the best possible way' Francesca Reece 'The most convincing work of literary fiction I've read in years... vibrating with intelligence and style' Emily Temple

In a town as small as Ribbon Ridge and with a family as large as the Archers, even the best-kept secrets don't stay buried for long... Tori Archer is married…well, on paper anyway. She hasn't actually seen her husband since the disastrous morning after their impulsive Vegas wedding. The memories of their intense passion may still make her weak in the knees, but Tori knows their marriage was a mistake. After six months filming abroad, television producer Sean Hennessy wants nothing more than to track down his sexy, captivating wife and get her into bed…fast. So when his boss sends him to Oregon to persuade the famous Archer sextuplets—the former stars of a reality TV show—to do a reunion special, Sean sees the perfect chance to win Tori back. But Tori wants nothing to do with him and is determined to push him away. Yet their attraction is as hot as ever and Sean will do anything to prove their relationship was more than just a fling…because he knows that when real love happens, it changes everything.
