Religious NGOs at the United Nations: Polarizers or Mediators
Examining the involvement of religious NGOs (RNGOs) at the UN, this book explores whether they polarize political debates at the UN or facilitate agreement on policy issues. Presenting original research on RNGOs and issues of global public policy, this volume will be relevant to both researchers and policy-makers in the fields of religion and international relations, the United Nations, and non-state actors and global governance. The number of RN…

Patterns of Legitimation in Hybrid Transnational Regimes: The Controversy Surrounding the Lex Sportiva
This article addresses concerns that the growth in global governance may be bringing with it a decline in the significance of democratic sources of political legitimacy. One approach in evaluating such concerns is to ask whether the respective patterns of legitimation for private and public authority differ or whether they refer to a similar set of normative standards. Private transnational governance regimes provide useful contexts in which to a…
The non-existence of private self-regulation in the transnational sphere and its implications for the responsibility to procure legitimacy: The case of the lex sportiva
This article is a critical examination of the claim that the emergence of private self-regulatory regimes in the transnational sphere signals a new trend of self-constitutionalization outside the limits of nation-state based or intergovernmental control. It deals with the question to what extent the diffusion of public authority in the sphere beyond the state affects the responsibility of the state(s) to procure the legitimacy of such private sel…

The Transnational Governance of Violence and Crime: Non-State Actors in Security
Building upon a range of case studies that range from civil war to maritime security and cyber crime, the contributors analyse how non-state actors can and should be involved in contributing to state
Promoting the Positive Development of Foster Children: Establishing Research in Germany
Research into foster care is less developed in Germany than in the UK or US and there are few national practice standards. In 2006, a research centre was established at the University of Siegen to improve the situation. Klaus Wolf describes the work undertaken so far and discusses the aims and philosophy underpinning the programme. He explains how research relevant to practice is combined with studies that have theoretical value in their own righ…
Corporate Security Responsibility?
Corporate Security Responsibility? focuses on the role of private business in zones of conflict. The book contributes to closing the gap between research on Global Governance and Peace and Conflict St
Der Widerspenstigen Selbst-Zähmung? Zur Professionalisierung der Internationalen Beziehungen in Deutschland
Foster Care Research in Germany: A Critical Review
Foster care research literature is dominated by studies from North America, the UK, Australia and Scandinavia. However, there is growing research activity in many other countries, the findings from which need to be incorporated into the international body of knowledge. In this article by Klaus Wolf, eight studies of foster care in Germany are discussed, looking at their aims, methods and conclusions. A model that aids the comparison of studies an…
Die judden sollen dis spiel in iren husen bliben! [The Jews should remain in their houses during this play]: The Ghettoisation of the Frankfurt Jews as Mirrored in Urban Plays
This article deals with the Jewish-Christian relationship in the late Middle Ages as reflected in medieval drama In fact, Frankfurt is one of the earliest centres for German liturgical plays. The ‘Frankfurter Dirigierrolle’ [Frankfurt Direction Scroll] dramatises the persistent conflict between Jewish and Christian burgher in the first half of the fourteenth century. This play's anti-Judaism is situated in a Frankfurt where Christians and Jews li…

Corporate Security Responsibility: Towards a Conceptual Framework for a Comparative Research Agenda
The political debate about the role of business in armed conflicts has increasingly raised expectations as to governance contributions by private corporations in the fields of conflict prevention, peace-keeping and post-conflict peace-building. This political agenda seems far ahead of the research agenda, in which the negative image of business in conflicts, seen as fuelling, prolonging and taking commercial advantage of violent conflicts, still …

Contextualizing Normative Standards for Legitimate Governance beyond the State
What kind of criteria should an appropriate model for the democratization of governance beyond the state fulfil? Can we identify elements of an ideal type for democratic governance beyond the state? Just like the attempt to identify and evaluate the supposed democratic deficit which is generally associated with the internationalization of governance, any discussion about its redemocratization requires a set of appropriate normative criteria which…

The New Raison d'État as a Problem for Democracy in World Society
What are the consequences of internationalization for the democratic legitimacy of governance? The argument developed in this article claims that de-democratization will take place as long as intergovernmental cooperation mechanisms offer national governments the opportunity to reassert state autonomy vis-a-vis increasingly assertive domestic and transnational societal pressures. Applied to the context of an emerging world society, the concept of…
Problemfelder und Situationsstrukturen in der Analyse internationaler Politik. Eine Brücke zwischen den Polen?
Zwischen den beiden traditionellen Analyseebenen des Studiums der internationalen Beziehungen — System und Akteur — sind die Versuche anzusiedeln, den Erklärungswert von Sachbeschaffenheitsmerkmalen der Problemfelder bzw. Konfliktgegenstände und spieltheoretisch bestimmten Situationsstrukturen für die internationale Politik zu ermitteln. In diesem Beitrag werden einige Beispiele solcher Erklärungsansätze vorgestellt und mit den Resultaten empiris…
