Die aktuellen Interventionen westlicher Mächte in Drittweltländern haben vieles gemeinsam mit den unzähligen Gewaltkonflikten an der Peripherie seit der Eroberung Amerikas im 16. Jahrhundert. Wie ihre Vorgänger sind die modernen Imperialkriege vor allem von den Gegebenheiten des Raums und der ausgeprägten Asymmetrie von Militärorganisation, Ressourcen, Kriegführungsstilen und Gewaltkulturen der Konfliktparteien geprägt. Sie sind im Kern lokale Bürgerkriege, in denen die westlichen Mächte nur ein dominanter Machtfaktor unter vielen sind. Sie haben keine klaren Fronten, keinen Anfang und kein Ende. Regeln zur Gewalteinhegung spielen nur eine geringe Rolle. Die westliche Militärmaschinerie erweist sich auch heute noch als unfähig, einen politischen Konflikt militärisch zu entscheiden, einen Gegner zur Schlacht zu stellen, der keinen Grund hat, sie anzunehmen, und sich auf Guerillakrieg und Terrorismus verlässt. Den Preis zahlt letztlich, früher wie heute, die Bevölkerung vor Ort. Dierk Walter unternimmt erstmals den Versuch, die Logik der Gewaltkonflikte im Rahmen der europäischen Expansion schlüssig zu erklären. Er untersucht Konfliktmuster, die Bedingungen der Gewaltentgrenzung und die Dynamik des Zusammenstoßes gegensätzlicher Gewaltkulturen. Dabei werden Parallelen zwischen verschiedenen Imperien und Kontinuitäten über die Epochengrenzen hinweg deutlich, die eines ganz klarmachen: Die jüngsten Militäreinsätze westlicher Streitkräfte in Drittweltländern wie Afghanistan, Irak oder Mali sind keine "neuen Kriege". Vielmehr stehen sie in einer 500‐jährigen Tradition transkultureller Gewaltkonflikte unter den spezifischen Bedingungen der "kolonialen Situation".

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.

Die im Band versammelten Aufsätze stellen Fallstudien zur Historisierung von Expertenwissen dar. Anhand der Interaktion von Experten auf Wissensmärkten sowie der Etablierung und Inszenierung von ökonomischen Experten untersuchen die Autorinnen und Autoren die Verbindung von Semantiken, Institutionen und Praktiken, um die spezifischen spätmittelalterlichen und frühneuzeitlichen Formen von Ökonomie in Figurationen von Caritas und Wucher, Moral und Markt, Wissen und Wirtschaft herauszuarbeiten. Ihr Anliegen ist es, Heuristiken einer vielfach eingeforderten kulturwissenschaftlichen Wirtschaftsgeschichte auszuloten, um Begriffe wie Wirtschaft und Markt zu historisieren und eine bessere Modellierung vormoderner Ökonomien zu erreichen. Durch die Perspektive der longue durée ermöglicht der Band Einblicke in die Genese wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Semantiken und ökonomischer Praktiken einer Umbruchszeit, in der wesentliche Weichen gestellt wurden für die Ausdifferenzierung von Wirtschaft als eigenständigem System, die für die moderne kapitalistische Wirtschaft als charakteristisch betrachtet wird.

In the wake of the Fischer Controversy on the origins of World War I there emerged in West Germany a younger generation of historians who took a critical 'revisionist' view of the Bismarckian Empire and began to analyze the political development of the Hohenzollern monarchy against the background of the country's social and economic power structures. Professor Wehler became one of the most prominent exponents of this approach and his structural analysis of the 'Kaiserreich' created a considerable stir when it was first published. It has since, with its incisive and rigorous analysis, become a classic in the field.

This book is a collection of selected accepted papers of Mendel conference that has been held in Brno, Czech Republic in June 2015. The book contents three chapters which represent recent advances in soft computing including intelligent image processing and bio-inspired robotics.: Chapter 1: Evolutionary Computing, and Swarm intelligence, Chapter 2: Neural Networks, Self-organization, and Machine Learning, and Chapter3: Intelligent Image Processing, and Bio-inspired Robotics. The Mendel conference was established in 1995, and it carries the name of the scientist and Augustinian priest Gregor J. Mendel who discovered the famous Laws of Heredity. In 2015 we are commemorating 150 years since Mendel's lectures, which he presented in Brno on February and March 1865. The main aim of the conference was to create a periodical possibility for students, academics and researchers to exchange their ideas and novel research methods.

Hopes for a new peaceful international order after the end of the Cold War have been dashed by sobering realities: Great powers are once again competing for honor and influence. The world remains “unipolar,” but international competition among the United States, Russia, China, Europe, Japan, India, and Iran raise new threats of regional conflict, and a new contest between western liberalism and the great eastern autocracies of Russia and China has reinjected ideology into geopolitics.For the past few years, the liberal world has been internally divided and distracted by issues both profound and petty. Now, in The Return of History and the End of Dreams, Robert Kagan masterfully poses the most important questions facing the liberal democratic countries, challenging them to choose whether they want to shape history or let others shape it for them.

This book demonstrates how rigorous mathematical thinking can be fostered through the development of students' cognitive tools and operations. This approach seems to be particularly effective with socially disadvantaged and culturally different students. The authors argue that children's cognitive functions cannot be viewed as following a natural maturational path: they should be actively constructed during the educational process. The Rigorous Mathematical Thinking (RMT) model is based on two major theoretical approaches – Vygotsky's theory of psychological tools and Feuerstein's concept of mediated learning experience. The book starts with general cognitive tools that are essential for all types of problem solving and then moves to mathematically specific cognitive tools and methods for utilizing these tools for mathematical conceptual formation. The application of the RMT model in various urban classrooms demonstrates how mathematics education standards can be reached even by the students with a history of educational failure who were considered hopeless underachievers.

Genocide is one of the most pressing issues that confronts us today. Its death toll is staggering: over one hundred million dead. Because of their intimate experience in the communities where genocide takes place, anthropologists are uniquely positioned to explain how and why this mass annihilation occurs and the types of devastation genocide causes. This ground breaking book, the first collection of original essays on genocide to be published in anthropology, explores a wide range of cases, including Nazi Germany, Cambodia, Guatemala, Rwanda, and Bosnia.

A philosophical investigation into the connections between trust and violence The limiting of violence through state powers is one of the central projects of the modern age. Why then have recent centuries been so bloody? In Trust and Violence, acclaimed German intellectual and public figure Jan Philipp Reemtsma demonstrates that the aim of decreasing and deterring violence has gone hand in hand with the misleading idea that violence is abnormal and beyond comprehension. We would be far better off, Reemtsma argues, if we acknowledged the disturbing fact that violence is normal. At the same time, Reemtsma contends that violence cannot be fully understood without delving into the concept of trust. Not in violence, but in trust, rests the foundation of true power. Reemtsma makes his case with a wide-ranging history of ideas about violence, from ancient philosophy through Shakespeare and Schiller to Michel Foucault, and by considering specific cases of extreme violence from medieval torture to the Holocaust and beyond. In the midst of this gloomy account of human tendencies, Reemtsma shrewdly observes that even dictators have to sleep at night and cannot rely on violence alone to ensure their safety. These authoritarian leaders must trust others while, by means other than violence, they must convince others to trust them. The history of violence is therefore a history of the peculiar relationship between violence and trust, and a recognition of trust's crucial place in humanity. A broad and insightful book that touches on philosophy, sociology, and political theory, Trust and Violence sheds new, and at times disquieting, light on two integral aspects of our society.
