Reconsidering Categorization-Related Inferences from Multicultural and Colorblind Prejudice Reduction Interventions
A recurring social-psychological debate surrounds the role of social categorization in moderating prejudice. In the course of this debate, researchers have examined the effectiveness of prejudice reduction interventions, reducing or reinforcing social categorization (e.g., colorblind vs. multicultural interventions). Many of the conclusions drawn in this research domain have come from studies relying on operationalizations provided by Wolsko et a…
Mehr-Parteien-Koalitionen
Der spätestens seit der Wiedervereinigung einsetzende Parteisystemwandel hat zu einer Pluralisierung und Fragmentierung des Parteiensystems geführt. Es steht zu erwarten, dass sich diese Tendenz in Zukunft eher noch verstärken als abschwächen wird. War die Bundesrepublik über weite Strecken ihrer Geschichte durch ein wenig fragmentiertes und symmetrisches Parteiensystem gekennzeichnet, so erlebte sie in ihrer Frühphase durchaus turbulente Zeiten …

A case study of an insider movement among Buddhists in Thailand
While insider movements are common in the Muslim and Hindu world, they are rare in the Buddhist world. This case study summarizes the formation and development of an insider movement among Buddhists in Thailand. The key principles in the movement are presented and analyzed. Among them are the importance of reaching entire families, avoiding Christian practices that can become a stumbling block to others, promoting the priesthood of all believers,…
Explaining EU integration dynamics in the wake of Covid-19
This article explores the heterogeneous and uneven EU response to the COVID-19 pandemic across policy fields and examines how integration theories can contribute to explaining the presence (or absence) of new integration steps and their varying nature. To analyse European activities in three policy fields, namely fiscal policy, centralised European vaccine procurement, and border politics, we develop a ‘Domain of Application’ approach (DOA). Inst…

Externalising internal policies via conflict
This paper identifies an innovative mechanism of how the EU’s internal policies could lead to policy adaptations within international institutions. Having authority over the single market, the EU regulates important market actors whose behaviour is oftentimes crucial for the effectiveness of global cooperation projects. By intentionally or unintentionally creating a vertical regulatory conflict with an international institution, the EU might infl…
The unintended consequences of regulatory import
This article examines to what extent regulatory import (RI), a common, but understudied mode of governance in regime complexes, was a separate factor of the global financial crisis in 2008. RI describes a specific mode of governance that occurs when regulators explicitly incorporate functionally important governance from an external forum to their own regulations, thus making their own performance dependent on external agency. While RI is associa…

When public principals give up control over private agents
In 2016, the United States (US) government relinquished its long‐standing delegation contract with the Internet Corporation for Assignment of Names and Numbers (ICANN), a private organization that governs the technical infrastructure of the internet. This presents a puzzle as the US not only gave up a power resource, but also relinquished the possibility, as a public principal, to hold the private agent ICANN accountable. I argue that public prin…

Credible commitment without independent regulatory agent
Credible commitment problems arise whenever decisions made according to short‐term incentives undermine long‐term policy goals. While political actors can credibly commit themselves to their long‐term policy goals by delegating decisions to independent regulatory agencies, the member states of international institutions rarely sacrifice control over regulatory decisions. Against the backdrop of the United Nations Compensation Commission establish…

Ideologie und Verbrechen
Die totalitäre Praxis ist verbrecherisch. Ist das Verbrechen aber schon in der Theorie angelegt? Und wie hängen Kommunismus und Nationalsozialismus historisch und ideologisch zusammen? Den nationalsozialistischen Verbrechen liegt keine ernst zu nehmende Ideologie zugrunde, die kommunistischen Verbrechen haben nichts mit der marxistischen Theorie zu tun – so lauten zwei gängige Vorurteile. In beiden Fällen entlastet man das Denken von seinen mögli…
