Statistical analysis of large datasets shows that half of all conflicts remained without any interference from the hegemonial powers at all - both on global scale and in the subregion. In all other cases however, hegemons (especially super-powers in the role of patrons) tended more often to act as (power-) mediators when their client-state was engaged in conflict with a client of the opposing superpower in Oriens Islamicus than they did on global scale. They did this in their own interest in order to avoid direct involvement, i.e. possible danger of a nuclear escalation. In contrast to conventional mediation theory they were more effective in conflict de-escalation than other mediators, especially in conflicts between Israel and its Arab neighbours. The end of bipolarity in the international system also brought this mechanism of de-escalation to an end. It leaves the hegemon(s) as a potentially powerful third party on the one hand, but on the other their inclination to become involved in regional conflict remains rather diminished as long as the basic national interests in the area are not at stake.}, language = {de} } @misc{Hellmann2004, author = {Hellmann, Gunther}, title = {Wider die machtpolitische Resozialisierung der deutschen Außenpolitik}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-8027}, year = {2004}, abstract = {German foreign policy is in the midst of a far-reaching transformation. Contrary to disciplinary expectations, this process is neither properly captured by descriptions in the liberal tradition („Europeanisation", „Civilian Power") nor by Realist expectations that Germany is doomed to „remilitarise" and/or „renationalise". However, the key term of foreign policy discourse, „normalisation", is an unmistakable code, signalling a rediscovery of traditional Realpolitik practices which fit Germany's current environment. The paper argues that rather than merely playing the role of an obedient disciple of Realpolitik socialisers, Germany ought to rehabilitate the foreign policy tradition of the Bonn Republic in support of an active Idealpolitik transformation of its environment.

It is shown that Marcos uses three distinct frames of reference in his fictional account of the Zapatista guerrilla: an ethnic, a national and a post-national one. Contrary to other studies that emphasize the harmony between the three levels, it can be argued that there exists a fundamental tension between them. There is a tension between the ethnic discourse and the Mexican nationalist discourse which envisions a nation rather than a nation dominated by a single ethno-cultural group. Finally, it can be deduced from these tensions that the EZLN guerrilla is subject to divergent pressures.}, language = {de} } @misc{Neuneck2006, author = {Neuneck, G{\"o}tz}, title = {Von blinden, weißen und anderen Flecken : Geheimdienste und ABC-Waffen}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-22183}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Gastkommentar von Dr. G{\"o}tz Neuneck, Leiter des Arbeitsbereichs „Interdisziplin{\"a}re Forschungsgruppe f{\"u}r Abr{\"u}stung und R{\"u}stungskontrolle" (IFAR), Institut f{\"u}r Friedensforschung und Sicherheitspolitik, Universit{\"a}t Hamburg.}, language = {de} } @misc{BrachvonGumppenberg2009, author = {Brach von Gumppenberg, Markus}, title = {Der Kaukasus : Symptome einer Krisenregion}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-27827}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Am 8.
