Waarom slagen grootmachten er soms in om samen te werken terwijl ze op andere momenten in bloedige conflicten verwikkeld raken, zoals de oorlog die Rusland ontketende in Oekraïne? Welke rol spelen organisaties als de VN-Veiligheidsraad en de NAVO? Welke lessen kunnen we uit de geschiedenis trekken om de actualiteit te beoordelen, ondanks de belangrijke verschillen met het verleden? Conflict en samenwerking buigt zich over deze en andere vragen, die historici en politieke wetenschappers al decennia lang boeien. Het boek beschrijft de internationale betrekkingen vanaf het einde van de napoleontische oorlogen tot aan de meest recente evoluties zoals de opkomst van China en de oorlog in Oekraïne. Het accent ligt op de politiek van de grote mogendheden vanwege hun bepalende rol op het internationale spelbord. De auteurs zoeken een antwoord op de vraag waarom er in bepaalde periodes vrede en stabiliteit was, en beschrijven de opkomst en ondergang van grootmachten

Ovaj rad pokušava prikazivanjem međunarodnog sustava za sprječavanje financiranja terorizma odgovoriti na pitanje uspješnosti tog sustava. Terorizam je jedan od najsloženijih fenomena današnjeg svijeta te zasigurno najizazovnija pojava društva u kojem živimo i kao takav zahtijeva dubinsku analizu svih svojih aspekata u svrhu što učinkovitije borbe protiv istoga. U prvom djelu rada prikazan je način na koji se terorističke organizacije financiraju: izvori njihovih sredstava, načini prijenosa tih sredstava te je prikazano na što sve terorističke organizacije i teroristi troše ta sredstva. Drugi dio rada prikazuje međunarodni okvir za sprječavanje financiranja terorizma i to: UN-ove konvencije i rezolucije, FATF-ove Posebne preporuke i europsko zakonodavstvo o sprječavanju korištenja financijskog sustava za pranje novca i financiranje terorizma. Na kraju je prikazan zakonodavni i institucionalni okvir Republike Hrvatske za sprječavanje financiranja terorizma. Zaključuje se kako je međunarodna borba protiv financiranja terorizma i dalje daleko od potpunog uspjeha zbog činjenice da se terorističke organizacije bez većih problema konstantno prilagođavaju novonastalim uvjetima i novim oblicima financiranja. ; This paper attempts to show international system for prevention of the financing of terrorism and to answer the question of its efficiency.

In this article I will examine the powers and activities of NATO-led Kosovo forces (KFOR) and their impact on human rights protection in Kosovo. Through this examination, I seek to answer the following questions: which KFOR actions affected the human rights of Kosovars? Does KFOR carry out responsibilities and abide by the obligations normally imposed upon nation-states? And is there a solution available when the alleged violator is KFOR? KFOR is responsible for carrying out military tasks and for 'shouldering' UNMIK and local security forces in some civilian peace-building tasks. In the course of the exercise of its mandate, there were alleged complaints of human rights violations by KFOR. The legal implications of these alleged complaints against KFOR (in)actions will also be discussed. ; In this article I will examine the powers and activities of NATO-led Kosovo forces (KFOR) and their impact on human rights protection in Kosovo.
