In communities where jobs and industry are scarce, many feel the government is incapable of understanding their needs or addressing their problems. The resulting frustration has fueled the success of destabilizing demagogues. To reverse this pattern and restore responsible government, we need to reinvigorate democracy at the local level. But what does that mean? Drawing on examples of successful community building in cities large and small, from a shrinking village in rural Austria to a neglected section of San Diego, Reconstructing Democracy makes a powerful case for re-engaging citizens. It highlights innovative grassroots projects and shows how local activists can form alliances and discover their own power to solve problems.}, language = {en} } @book{Dieter2017, author = {Dieter, Heribert}, title = {Globalisierung {\`a} la carte}, series = {Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r Politische Bildung: Schriftenreihe ; Band 10146}, journal = {Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r Politische Bildung: Schriftenreihe ; Band 10146}, publisher = {Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r politische Bildung}, address = {Bonn}, isbn = {978-3-7425-0146-2}, pages = {263}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @book{OPUS4-50023, title = {Local Integration of Migrants Policy}, series = {Palgrave Studies in Sub-National Governance}, journal = {Palgrave Studies in Sub-National Governance}, editor = {Franzke, Jochen and de la Fuente, Jos{\´e} M.

Developing a novel committee governance concept and using examples drawn from sanctions imposed on Iraq, Al-Qaida, Congo, Sudan and Iran, this book shows that Council members tend to follow the will of the powerful, whereas sanctions committee members often decide according to the rules. This is surprising since both Council and committees are staffed by the same member states. Offering a fascinating account of Security Council micro-politics and decision-making processes on sanctions, this rigorous comparative and theory-driven analysis treats the Council and its sanctions committees as distinguishable entities that may differ in decision practice despite having the same members. Drawing extensively on primary documents, diplomatic cables, well-informed press coverage, reports by close observers and extensive interviews with committee members, Council diplomats and sanctions experts, it contrasts with the conventional wisdom on decision-making within these bodies, which suggests that the powerful permanent members would not accept rule-based decisions against their interests. This book will be of interest to policy practitioners and scholars working in the broad field of international organizations and international relations theory as well as those specializing in sanctions, international law, the Security Council and counter-terrorism.}, language = {en} } @book{Storl2009, author = {Storl, Kati}, title = {B{\"u}rgerbeteiligung in kommunalen Zusammenh{\"a}ngen : ausgew{\"a}hlte Instrumente und deren Wirkung im Land Brandenburg}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-016-8}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-35947}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {126}, year = {2009}, language = {de} } @book{OPUS4-56182, title = {Sustainability Politics and Limited Statehood}, editor = {Esguerra, Alejandro and Helmerich, Nicole and Risse, Thomas}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-39870-9}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-39871-6}, pages = {238}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @book{WeissVerlaanVasquezCarruthersetal.2022, author = {Weiß, Norman and Verlaan, Stephanie and Vasquez Carruthers, Juan Francisco and Mair, Theresa and Conner, Sean and Maaser, Lucas and R{\"o}thlisberger, Livia}, title = {Transitional Justice}, series = {Potsdamer Studien zu Staat, Recht und Politik}, journal = {Potsdamer Studien zu Staat, Recht und Politik}, number = {7}, editor = {Weiß, Norman}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-473-9}, issn = {1869-2443}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-43171}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-431711}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {194}, year = {2022}, abstract = {This publication deals with the topic of transitional justice.
