Europe
Germany and Japan
Signifying the return of great power revisionism by all means, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has had a dramatic impact on the security and defense postures of Germany and Japan, two key US allies with strong anti-military foreign policy traditions based on peace constitutions. In analyzing the two countries’ far-reaching adjustments between 2022 and 2024, this article reflects on four major factors to explain the respective trajectories: threat pe…

Thirty Years After
Capitalism and socialism, opposed to each other in the Cold War, began to gradually exchange their features: in the West, capitalism started incorporating socialist institutions of welfare state, and the soft version of socialism became an ideology of intellectuals. At the same time, in the East, socialism could not resist consumer culture, while intellectuals had switched to either conservative or purely liberal positions, both being sharply cri…

The Coronavirus Pandemic and the Future of International Order

Die internationale Ordnung
Um die Entwicklung der internationalen Ordnung zu diagnostizieren, bedarf es zunächst einer präzisen Begrifflichkeit. Dieser Beitrag versteht die Weltordnung als spezifische Ausprägung politischer Ordnung, die eng verwoben mit nationalstaatlichen politischen Ordnungen funktioniert. „Die“ internationale Ordnung als umfassende Weltordnung ist ein relativ junges Phänomen, das dennoch bereits eine differenzierte historische Entwicklung aufweist.

The Rise and Decline of the Post-Cold War International Order
This books surveys the evolution of the international order in the quarter century since the end of the Cold War through the prism of developments in key regional and functional parts of this “liberal international order 2.0” (LIO 2.0) and the roles played by two key ordering powers, the United States and the People’s Republic of China. Among the partial orders analyzed in the individual chapters are the regions of Europe, the Middle East, and Ea…
The Middle Eastern Regional Order
The Middle East has long been dominated by conflict interactions, both among Arab states and with the non-Arab regional powers Israel and Iran. Yet despite much violence and wars the old order in the Middle East—established at the end of World War I—was remarkably stable until 2011, when it disintegrated as a result of the “Arab spring.” The principal cause for this has been the weakness of the Arab states. Outside powers have been invited into t…
Coping with Public Health Emergencies of International Concern
This chapter looks at the part of international order relating to surveillance and response to public health emergencies of international concern, which in turn forms part of the broader partial international order on global health. The main actor on international health emergencies control is the World Health Organization (WHO), with the International Health Regulations (IHR) being the applicable legally binding document. Based on much older san…
Reflective, Hegemonic, Geo-economic, Civilian … ? The Puzzle of German Power
Can German foreign policy still be understood as one approximating the foreign policy of an ideal type of civilian power? This article discusses recent efforts to offer alternative characterisations, such as 'reflective', 'shaping', or 'geo-economic' power and concludes that 'civilian power' may still offer the best fit to understand German foreign policy. Its problem may not consist so much in a shift towards a different trajectory and destinati…

The politics of the EU
The article looks at the politics of the European Union’s policies towards China, using the liberal theory of international politics of Andrew Moravcsik as a framework for analysis. It concludes that these policies are structurally fragmented, incoherent and inconsistent because of the way they are formulated and implemented. The preponderance of commercial preferences and the insistence on national sovereignty are crucial to understanding why th…

Germany and the use of force
Germany's military participation in the Kosovo War against Serbia represents an evolution but not a fundamental departure in its post-war security policy as a 'civilian power'. The decision to join the air strikes even in the absence of a mandate by the UN Security Council was motivated by considerations which have long been central to Germany's foreign-policy role concept. As a result of the Kosovo experience, Germany now is moving towards restr…
German foreign policy, Post‐Kosovo
In the Kosovo crisis, Germany for the first time since 1955 joined NATO military combat operations in a major way. While this has often been interpreted as a fundamental major departure ('normalisation') in Germany's post‐war foreign policy, this article argues that Germany's willingness to contemplate joining a NATO war even without a mandate by the UN Security Council represents an evolution, rather than a fundamental change in Germany's foreig…
Europe and the new balance of global order
The European Union has become an important shaping factor in international relations, but how and under what conditions it can exercise influence and contribute constructively to global order are still not well analysed. In fact, the EU's contribution may resemble more that of a force in physics than of a great power in the traditional sense of international relations (which the EU is not, and will not become in the near future), and its influenc…

Germany and the Art of Coalition Building
Due to its particular foreign policy role concept as a ‘civilian power’, Germany has frequently assumed the role of a ‘coalition‐builder’, both within the European Union and beyond. Looking at the two cases of Iraq in 2002/3 and Iran in 2002–2006, this article explores the concept of Germany as a coalition‐builder more closely and identifies conditions under which Germany was (a) successful and (b) effective as a coalition‐builder.

Embedding Korea's unification multilaterally
The traditional view that bi- and multilateral security arrangements are mutually exclusive is misleading. Since the Korean War the multilateral UN Armistice regime and strong bilateral alliances have kept peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula. In the 1990s, multilateral security institutions such as KEDO have become more important in supplementing bilateral security treaties. Reflecting upon a future Korean Unification, the article argues …
Reconciling China with international order
The debate about Western policies towards China ('containment’ versus ‘engagement') is intellectually and politically misleading. At issue is not so much the policy blueprint but the ability of Western countries to design and implement coherent and consistent policies towards China, and to coordinate those policies between themselves. This ability has been affected by a trend towards the ‘domestication’ of foreign policies — a trend which is part…

The Control of Oil
In 1970 members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (opec) produced about 1.16 billion tons of crude oil; 1.12 billion were exported, mainly to the industrialized countries. Opec export revenues in that year totalled about $7.8 billion. In 1979, opec members exported about 1.43 billion tons; their export revenues totalled $199 billion.1 In between, there were two revolutions in the world oil market and, as a result, oil is no lon…

Deformations and tensions in the world order, which have matured latently for years, if not decades, have come to light. The nature of changes in the modern world is yet to be comprehended. Not surprisingly, it is difficult to get rid of the Cold War inertial thinking and the temptation to find parallels …
