Im Oktober 2019 fand an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main anlässlich der fünfjährigen deutsch-ukrainischen Zusammenarbeit in der griechischen Koloniestadt Olbia Pontike eine internationale Fachtagung statt, deren grundlegende Forschungsbeiträge mit diesem Band nun vorgelegt werden können. Im Fokus der einzelnen Studien stehen exemplarisch ausgewählte Themen zu antiken Migrationsprozessen in den beiden Hauptzielregionen der sogenannten Grossen Griechischen Kolonisation (Magna Graecia und Pontos Euxeinos). Methodische und methodologische Aspekte der Kolonisationsforschung finden dabei ebenso Berücksichtigung wie vertiefende Fragestellungen zu regionalen Entwicklungslinien sowie zu unterschiedlichen Phasen eines spezifischen Urbanisierungsprozesses ab der archaischen Zeit.0In diesen wissenschaftlichen Kontext eingebettet werden die umfangreichen Ergebnisse des deutsch-ukrainischen Kooperationsprojektes, die an den Ufern des Bug in archäologischen, numismatischen und naturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen erzielt wurden, ausführlich präsentiert und ihre Bedeutung für zukünftige Studien zur griechischen Schwarzmeerkolonisation im Detail dargelegt

The principle that treaty obligations must be fulfilled in good faith is one aspect of the fundamental rule that requires all subjects of international law to exercise in good faith their rights and duties under that law.In the sociopolitical sphere, this fundamental principle may be seen as manifesting the need perceived by states for an international legal system that can ensure international order and prevent arbitrary behavior and chaos. In the legal sphere, the principle is confirmation of the character of international law as law. Subjects of international law are legally bound under the principle to implement what the law prescribes.

The United States chose an approach to global warming that came to be viewed by much of the international community as a barrier to effective action. In explaining why, this article analyzes the interaction of the domestic political process and international negotiations. It argues that—while external pressures brought to bear through the negotiations leading up to UNCED pushed the domestic agenda on global warming—the nature of the political process, in combination with the nature of the global warming issue itself, set the general limits for U.S. participation in cooperative international arrangements to manage global warming. That is, given the broad set of interests activated by global warming concerns and the ready access those interests had to decision-making bodies through a pluralist policy process, consensus on an approach to global warming proved impossible. The U.S., unwilling to accept international commitments that obligated it to domestic actions, thwarted efforts to get an international treaty containing firm targets and timetables.

This manuscript reviews the literature on race and ethnicity in the political context. It discusses the most important scholarship on international migration, political mobilization, and the welfare state to date, to identify current gaps and emerging lines of inquiry. Future studies are needed to better understand the mobilization of immigrants by political parties, the role of local politics for a national electoral mobilization, and the relationship between local and national political areas for policy development.
