'Die große 'historische Meistererzählung' des 'Projektes Amerika' handelt von dem prinzipiell unabgeschlossenen Prozess, für alle Menschen ein hohes Maß an Freiheit erlangen zu wollen. Auch George W. Bush steht, wie seine republikanischen und demokratischen Vorgänger, in dieser zivilreligiösen Tradition. Sie wird auch nicht dadurch entzaubert, dass die USA ihre eigenen Ideale häufig mit Füssen traten. Dabei darf es nur nicht bleiben. Mit ihrem missionarischen Freiheitskonzept stoßen die Amerikaner in anderen Teilen der Welt auf Unverständnis - auch in Europa. Das Streben nach Sicherheit und Gleichheit unter dem Schutz eines starken Staates hat hierzulande einen höheren Stellenwert als die Risiken der Freiheit in Selbstverantwortung. Jüngste Debatten deuten allerdings auf ein Umdenken hin.' (Autorenreferat)

International law is a process that changes over the years with the international environment. Since the law is changed, certain principles have become soft, and some from year to year more and more strong and steadfast. Territorial integrity and self-determination are well-known principles of international law and are derived from the same documents of international law. Both principles are closely related to each other and cannot be disentangled. In addition, the meaning of these principles and relationship between them continue to form the subject of debate. Territorial integrity is the right of the states to protect their own territory, the right to self determination is the right of people to freedom. The purpose of this thesis is to analyse the relationship between the principle of self determination of the people and the principle of territorial integrity of states. Is there normative conflict between them? This thesis will be based on the use of both primary and secondary sources. Analysis of documents of international law is essential for the case. The Case of Kosovo and Case of Crimea are used as tools, to show that any matter relating to both principles must be examined individually. In case of Kosovo the right to self-determination may be used to justify Kosovo secession from Serbia, because of special circumstances. Consequently it will be concluded that Crimea cannot base its claim to statehood in a right to self determination. Keywords: International Law, Territorial Integrity, Self-Determination, Kosovo, Crimea ; ÖZ : Uluslararası hukuk, uluslararası çevre ile beraber yıllar boyunca değişen bir süreçtir. Zamanla hukuk kuralları değişmiş ve bunlardan bazıları yumuşamış bazıları ise güçlenerek yerleşik hale gelmiştir. Uluslararası hukukun en çok bilinen ve aynı sayfalarından türeyen iki ilkesi, bölgesel bütünlük ve özerklik ilkeleridir. Bu iki ilke birbirleriyle ilgili olup ayrı düşünülemezler. Bununla beraber aralarındaki ilişki yıllardır tartışılmakta olup tartışmalar da gelecekte devam edecektir. Bölgesel bütünlük ülkelerin kendi sınırlarını koruma hakları olarak tanımlanır iken özerklik ise o bölge içerisindeki insanların özgürlük haklarını ifade eden bir tanımdır. Bu tezin amacı, bölgesel bütünlük ve özerklik ilkeleri arasındaki ilişkinin analizi ve bu ilkeler arasında normatif bir çatışma olup olmadığının incelenmesidir. Bu tezin temellendirilmesinde uluslararası hukukun birincil ve ikincil kaynakları kullanılmıştır. Bu iki ilke arasındaki ilişki Kosova ve kırım olayları ele alınarak açıklanmaya çalışılacaktır. Kosova'nın Sırbistan'dan özerklik istemesi olayı uluslararası hukukun özerklik ilkesi, kırım olayı ise bölgesel bütünlük ilkesi içerisinde ele alınacaktır.

"The image of the pirate today haunts the imagination of statesmen, diplomats and international legal scholars as an unlikely global security threat endangering the regularity of oceanic trade networks and legitimizing an unprecedented naval coalition that includes all major international powers. The image of the pirate also casts its shadow over the internet, as cyber-activists, file-sharers and others are condemned for piracy even if that definition is also embraced by some according to the fantasy of a freedom beyond the rigid norms of the state and of the market. But what are the origins of the 'pirate myth' in the Western political imagination? Drawing on history, international law, literature and politics, this book offers an original genealogy of this myth. From the persecutio piratarum that inaugurates the Imperial phase of Roman history to the contemporary global mobilization against Somali pirates, its close reading of the ways in which different Empires have made use of the 'pirate myth' in order to legitimize their hegemonic violence sheds light on the logic of past and present Imperial formations. More specifically, this book shows that the history of piracy the ways in which pirates have been used, outlawed, criminalized, condemned and suppressed by European powers has been, and continues to be, a fundamental element in the formation of the world market.The Pirate Myth: Genealogies of an Imperial Concept will therefore be immense interest to those working and researching in law, politics, and history"--

Geopolitical conceptions also have an ?energy dimension?, just as energy
security can and must be considered in the context of geopolitics. The twenty-first
century remains a century of fossil fuel use. It should be expected that the share of coal
in the total energy balance will decline, but also that the share of natural gas use will
increase. Political decisions and international relations as a whole will be correlated
with the geographical distribution of oil and natural gas sources and routes of the
strategic pipelines. This paper discusses this issue in five chapters. The first is
introductory, explaining the definitions of energy security and geopolitics. The second
chapter is devoted to explaining the importance of energy issues for political relations,
and the third presents the geographical distribution of energy sources and reserves.
The geopolitics of energy security with some examples from contemporary international
relations is described in Chapter Four, while the last part of the paper deals with
concluding considerations.

The immense increase in the costs and risks of using military force to pursue political aims has once again focussed attention on the available ways of effecting changes in the international status quo by non-violent means. This is the subject of "peaceful change," which has for some years troubled the minds of those concerned to reduce the resort to violence in international affairs.The international status quo is embodied in several thousand treaties and understandings that mark out the current distribution of values and resources among nations. But this distribution is subject to constant pressure for revision as the needs and ambitions of nations change.

"This book focuses on security dynamics in the contemporary Gulf and Arabian Peninsula. It highlights the development of the Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula, the contemporary challenges and opportunities confronting the principal powers that are active in this important sub-region, and analyzes and evaluates their policy responses. The various perspectives of the chapters all suggest that the stability and security of the Gulf sub-region is now and will continue in the future to be of vital importance to the global community. The chapters that compose the volume are organized into three thematic sections. Part I, 'Security Challenges and Power Configurations in the Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula: The Historical Context', comprises three chapters. Part II, consisting of seven chapters, is entitled, 'Contemporary Security Challenges and Opportunities in the Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula.' Part III, 'Contemporary National Interests, Objectives, and Strategies of the Major Powers in the Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula', comprises five chapters. Finally, the volume ends with a concluding chapter. Unfortunately, however, the contemporary unstable, heterogeneous Gulf sub-region is fraught with extremely serious and often urgent challenges that threaten the sub-region's security. This volume helps to illuminate the nature of the sub-regional environment and the contemporary challenges and opportunities that confront the various powers that are active in the Gulf. It also contributes to a greater understanding of the interests, contemporary objectives, and strategies of those powers as they formulate and implement policies in response to the challenges and opportunities that they confront. This book will be of much interest to students of security studies, Middle Eastern politics and International Relations"--
