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} } @article{HickmannFuhrHoehneetal.2017, author = {Hickmann, Thomas and Fuhr, Harald and H{\"o}hne, Chris and Lederer, Markus and Stehle, Fee}, title = {Carbon Governance Arrangements and the Nation-State: The Reconfiguration of Public Authority in Developing Countries}, series = {Public administration and development}, volume = {37}, journal = {Public administration and development}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {0271-2075}, doi = {10.1002/pad.1814}, pages = {331 -- 343}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Several scholars concerned with global policy-making have recently pointed to a reconfiguration of authority in the area of climate politics. They have shown that various new carbon governance arrangements have emerged, which operate simultaneously at different governmental levels. However, despite the numerous descriptions and mapping exercises of these governance arrangements, we have little systematic knowledge on their workings within national jurisdictions, let alone about their impact on public-administrative systems in developing countries. Therefore, this article opens the black box of the nation-state and explores how and to what extent two different arrangements, that is, Transnational City Networks and Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation, generate changes in the distribution of public authority in nation-states and their administrations. Building upon conceptual assumptions that the former is likely to lead to more decentralized, and the latter to more centralized policy-making, we provide insights from case studies in Indonesia, South Africa, Brazil, and India. In a nutshell, our analysis underscores that Transnational City Networks strengthen climate-related actions taken by cities without ultimately decentralizing climate policy-making. On the other hand, Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation tends to reinforce the competencies of central governments, but apparently does not generate a recentralization of the forestry sector at large.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Kamprath2014, author = {Kamprath, Martin}, title = {A microfoundations perspectives on fresight and business models}, pages = {224}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @incollection{DoerflerHosli2013, author = {D{\"o}rfler, Thomas and Hosli, Madeleine O.}, title = {Reforming the United Nations Security Council}, series = {Routledge Handbook of International Organization}, booktitle = {Routledge Handbook of International Organization}, publisher = {Routledge}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-0-415-50143-9}, doi = {10.4324/9780203405345.ch28}, pages = {377 -- 390}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{Tanneberg2020, author = {Tanneberg, Dag}, title = {Introduction}, series = {The Politics of Repression Under Authoritarian Rule : How Steadfast is the Iron Throne?}, journal = {The Politics of Repression Under Authoritarian Rule : How Steadfast is the Iron Throne?}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-35477-0}, issn = {2198-7289}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-35477-0_1}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Does political repression work and if so, under what conditions?

As a consequence, strong convictions on political repression abound, but empirical investigations into the matter remain rare. This introduction sets the agenda for the chapters to come and outlines the answers given to the three motivating questions of this volume. First, what variants of political repression are there, and how do they interact? Second, what impact does the interaction of different forms of political repression have on the problem of authoritarian control? Finally, what difference does the complementary use of violence and restrictions make for the problem of authoritarian power-sharing?}, language = {en} } @book{Terhalle2015, author = {Terhalle, Maximilian}, title = {The transition of global order}, publisher = {Palgrave Macmillan}, address = {Basingstoke}, isbn = {978-1-137-38689-2}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {XI, 267}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @book{Angelow2015, author = {Angelow, J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Entsorgt und ausgeblendet}, publisher = {Welttrends}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-945878-04-0}, pages = {168}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Die Kluft zwischen Ost- und Westdeutschen ist in den vergangenen Jahren nicht schmaler geworden.
