"Bargains are a fact of political life. But if bargaining inevitably involves asymmetric power, can it ever be just? Drawing on an analogy to the private law of contracts and on case studies across arenas of civic life, Democratic Deals shows that, subject to proper limits, bargaining can secure political equality and protect fundamental interests."--

Seit der Covid-19-Pandemie lässt sich die Entstehung einer neuen, zahlenmäßig starken, radikal rechten Protestbewegung beobachten. Aus diesem bundesweiten Trend stach Sachsen als Hotspot der Mobilisierungen hinsichtlich Quantität und Radikalität heraus. Der vorliegende Sammelband versucht zum einen, Erklärungsansätze hierfür aufzuzeigen, und hat zum anderen das Ziel, der Erforschung der sächsischen Corona-Proteste und ihrem Hauptakteur, der regionalistisch ausgerichteten, radikal rechten Partei Freie Sachsen, eine Vielzahl weiterer Facetten hinzuzufügen. Die einzelnen Beiträge fokussieren dabei unterschiedliche Aspekte der Mobilisierungen und sollen zum Verständnis der sächsischen Spezifika innerhalb der Corona-Proteste beitragen. Dieser Band versammelt dabei diverse sozialwissenschaftliche Theorie- und Fachtraditionen, die jeweils aus einer spezifischen Perspektive das untersuchte Phänomen beleuchten, um in der Gesamtschau eine Vielzahl neuer Erkenntnisse zu gewinnen. Die Beiträge machen dabei deutlich, dass es sich bei den sächsischen Akteur:innen der Corona-Proteste allgemein und den Freien Sachsen besonders um ernstzunehmende Gegner:innen demokratischer Gesellschaftsordnungen handelt, die in konkreten raumzeitlichen Kontexten entstanden sind und nur aus diesen heraus zu verstehen sind. Damit leisten sie einen wichtigen Beitrag zur theoretisch und empirisch fundierten Analyse radikal rechter Akteur:innen in Sachsen.
"Against a backdrop of continually growing global Islamophobia, this handbook provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary overview of the key issues, theories, debates, and developments in gendered Islamophobia, unpacking how Western, Orientalist constructions of Muslim men and women affect the lived experiences of Muslim men and women; impact social, legal, and criminological policies, practices, and discourse; and give rise to resistance against gendered Islamophobia. Drawing on theories from philosophy, sociology, gender studies, psychology and criminology, sections examine the interdisciplinary theoretical dimensions of gendered Islamophobia; illustrate the dynamics of gendered Islamophobia through the use of case examples in the UK, Europe, North America, Australasia, the Middle East, and South Asia. This handbook will be valuable reading for scholars, researchers, and policymakers around the globe in Gender Studies, Sociology, Criminology, Politics, and Law, who focus on the intersections of gender and Islamopobia, and the impact on Muslim men and women respectively." --

Steven A. Cook charts the course of the United States' encounter with the Middle East from the mid-twentieth century through the present day. Looking back, Cook makes a bold claim: the U.S. was - despite setbacks and moral costs - spectacularly successful. That record of achievement began to unravel in the early 1990s when policymakers embarked upon a set of overly ambitious policies to remake the Middle East. Cook highlights that calls to withdraw from the region are rash given the important interests the U.S. maintains in the region. Yet, he also underscores how those interests are changing and explores alternatives to America's current approach to the Middle East against the backdrop of political uncertainty in the United States and a changing global order.
