Keine Angst vor Komplexität

Nur wer über den Tellerrand blickt, kann globale Wirkungszusammenhänge verstehen

Wenn die Gesellschaft für Deutsche Sprache das „Postfaktische“ zum Wort des Jahres wählt und der Spiegel „to underpoll – Brexit underpolled, Trump underpolled“ als Verb des Jahres ausruft, haben sich die Dreh- und Angelpunkte unserer Gesellschaft verschoben – und das nicht nur in Deutschland. Daher braucht es weiterhin einen klaren Blick nach vorne.

Asia Pacific Contributions to International Cyber Stability

Both globally and regionally, major power rivalry, rising nationalism as well as challenges to the rule of law and international human rights obligations are making challenging to find common ground on state behaviour in cyberspace. Within the Asia region itself, states’ cultural and political values vary, including different conceptual understandings of world order and cybersecurity. In the absence of a global agreement for international cybersecurity, Caitríona Heinl examines the contribution of Asia Pacific states to a regime for international cyber stability, including implementation of norms of responsible state behaviour in cyberspace, CBMs and capacity building.

Besser als ihr Ruf

Die vorläufige Bilanz der EU-Flüchtlingspolitik

Die EU-Flüchtlingspolitik wird sehr kontrovers diskutiert. Trotz einiger offener Fragen hat die EU in vielen Bereichen Handlungsfähigkeit bewiesen und erste Erfolge erzielt.

Sistemas federales.

Una comparación internacional.

En su forma moderna, el federalismo nace con la constitución de Estados Unidos, en 1789. En otros procesos de construcción del Estado, su imagen despertaba, cuando menos, sentimientos encontrados, y ha experimentado altibajos a lo largo del tiempo. Si bien los tres Estados norteamericanos — México, Canadá y Estados Unidos— adoptaron constituciones federales, este modelo continuó siendo la excepción y no la norma en otras zonas del mundo. Aunque gran parte de la población mundial vive actualmente en estados federados, solo una pequeña parte de todos los Estados soberanos son federaciones. Y, pese a que el planteamiento federal parece haberse extendido en la segunda mitad del siglo XX, con su reaparición en muchos discursos contemporáneos sobre las reformas del Estado, la «federalización» real ha sido excepcional. A menudo, las nuevas federaciones se han tornado efímeras, y la mayor parte de los procesos continuos de este tipo se han estancado a medio camino en la transición hacia un Estado federado de pleno derecho.

Redefining Parity at work in India

In India, three trends in employment relations driven in part by technology adoption and digitisation can be observed: a rise in contractual labour, an increase in platform and on-demand workers, and a rise in freelancing work. Terri Chapman discusses the contours of disruption and work in India, focusing on trends in employment relations. She outlines the dimensions of inequality that must be considered in the context of observed and expected workforce change in India.

Lessons from the stress test

What the EU has learned – and still needs to learn – from the refugee crisis

Over the last 20 months, the EU has come under a great deal of criticism regardingits response to the refugee crisis. From outside of Europe, the EU has been accusedof a lack of political will and common purpose. However, the external criticism wasexceeded by far by the opposition from some of the Member States and its exaggerateddepiction as a policy of non-compliance by some of the media.Contact to the authors: Christina.Krause@kas.de; Olaf.Wientzek@kas.de

Christians in Syria

Current Situation and Future Outlook

Syria is said to be a secular country which guarantees religious freedom. While that has never been the case, the country’s Christians were able to live their faith without experiencing any serious problems up to 2010. Many church leaders hope that situation will return, as do many Christians. The civil war has already cost over 500,000 lives, 6.5 million Syrians are now internally displaced persons and there are almost 5 million refugees. The number of Christians has dropped by half. They have fled the war, the regime and the Islamists. Will they return to Syria once the conflict is over?
