Die Internationalisierung von Hochschulen muss mit passenden Angeboten für internationale Studierende einhergehen. Ein systemisches und kultursensitives Peer-Coaching kann internationale Studierende unterstützen, sich zu orientieren, zu integrieren und berufliche Ziele zu verwirklichen. Gleichzeitig entwickeln die zu Peer-Coaches ausgebildeten Studierenden Sensibilität für Diversität. Insgesamt wird ein kultursensitives Miteinander an der Hochschule gefördert.

The concept of territoriality has been studied surprisingly little by students of international politics. Yet, territoriality most distinctively defines modernity in international politics, and changes in few other factors can so powerfully transform the modern world polity. This article seeks to frame the study of the possible transformation of modern territoriality by examining how that system of relations was instituted in the first place. The historical analysis suggests that "unbundled" territoriality is a useful terrain for exploring the condition of postmodernity in international politics and suggests some ways in which that exploration might proceed. The emergence of multiperspectival institutional forms is identified as a key dimension of the condition of postmodernity in international politics.

Introduction: …This paper first outlines how a global permit scheme would work in theory and identifies potential problems. An alternative system which could still be implemented consistently with the Kyoto Protocol (but importantly without the fixed emission targets) is then outlined. I should stress that the problems identified for a global permit trading scheme may or may not cripple the scheme in the near term or at all, but under some circumstances global permit trading schemes are vulnerable to collapse because of reasons outlined below. The economic crisis in Asia has clearly illustrated how poorly the future can be predicted with any certainty, even over relatively short time frames. In climate change research the horizon is many decades and the uncertainties compound quickly. The success of any international policy regime should not be contingent on a particular prediction of the future but should be robust to a range of possible outcomes. In fact you really want international agreements to hold together precisely in the cases of extreme pressure. Sustainability of an international agreement for environmental or any other policy, can only be achieved when the agreement provides clear incentives for all participants to adhere to the policy goals under a wide range of possible future scenarios. The main glue that currently binds the Kyoto Protocol together is political will which is fragile at best.
