Includes bibliographical references. ; In the post or neo-colonial era, the question of fair and equitable treatment of indigenous peoples remains a subject of international political and legal discourse. Efforts have been made to study ways of promoting and protecting indigenous rights and to develop international norms for the protection of these rights. These efforts have sprung forth a plethora of questions; these questions include 'who qualifies as indigenous peoples?' and 'what rights do they enjoy under international law.' This thesis takes a cursory look at the conceptual underpinnings of indigenous peoples and specifically evaluates their right to culture in the parlance of international law.

Das Arbeitspapier beschreibt zunächst kurz die historische Entwicklung in der Nutzung vorschulischer Einrichtungen in den USA und in Deutschland. Parallel dazu wird die Verschiebung der Zielsetzungen dieser Einrichtungen von "Bewahranstalten" hin zu "Bildungseinrichtungen" im Zeitverlauf skizziert. Dabei kann auch eine Wende bei der Diskussion um die Auswirkung des Besuchs vorschulischer Einrichtungen beobachtet werden. Der Hauptteil dieses Beitrags beschäftigt sich mit der Darstellung internationaler Studien zum Vorschulbesuch bzw. dem Besuch spezieller vorschulischer Programme.
Ausgewählte Studien werden in Bezug auf die kurz- und langfristigen Wirkungen vorschulischer institutioneller Betreuung auf verschiedene Leistungen, Schulerfolg und Sozialverhalten dargestellt. Dabei können mehrheitlich positive Einflüsse des Vorschulbesuchs auf die Entwicklung der Kinder festgestellt werden, die zum Teil auch langfristige Bildungserfolge bedeuten. Jedoch scheint diese Wirkung auch von der Qualität der vorschulischen Einrichtungen abhängig zu sein. Die dargestellten internationalen
Ergebnisse lassen sich aber nicht direkt auf die deutsche Situation übertragen, da das
deutsche Vorschulsystem beispielsweise im Vergleich zum amerikanischen System wesentlich homogener gestaltet ist. Systematische deutsche Studien zum Vorschulbereich und dessen Wirkung existieren bisher kaum, so dass hier nur einige wenige Befunde auf Grundlage von Sekundärdaten dargestellt werden können. In Bezug auf vorschulische Einrichtungen und deren Wirkung besteht in Deutschland weiterer Forschungsbedarf.

Tensions and occasional overt defiance of international courts suggest that compliance with international regimes is not a self-evident choice for domestic judges. I develop a formal theory of domestic judicial defiance in which domestic and supranational judges vie for jurisprudential authority in a non-hierarchical setting. The model emphasises the role of domestic non-compliance costs and power asymmetries in determining the conduct of domestic and international judges. I argue that the EU represents a special case of a particularly effective international regime. Weak domestic courts have little to gain from an escalated conflict with the European court of Justice. But even domestic judicial superpowers like the German Federal Constitutional Court have strong incentives to seek mutual accommodation with European judges. The analysis also yields new insights into concepts, such as "judicial dialogue" and "constitutional pluralism" that have featured prominently in the legal literature, and suggests new hypotheses for empirical research.

50 years after the publication of the first and influential article in international relations (IR) analyzing foreign aid motivations, A theory of foreign aid, by Hans Morgenthau, IR scholarship has not yet accomplished a consistent theoretical body explaining international development cooperation. Most of the empirical studies on foreign aid have been contributions from other disciplines, especially economics. Research from the field of international relations has been mostly descriptive or poorly connected with IR paradigms.This article proposes to analyze motivations of foreign aid allocations decisions of donors. These motivations will be examined from the theoretical perspective of the international relations scholarship. In this way, it is sought to contribute, from the discipline of IR, to the explanation of the process in which developed countries make transfers of resources to developing countries.CITE AS:Pauselli, G.

This book, first published in 1980, examines the extent to which warfare and other military activities contribute to environmental degradation. The military capability to damage the environment has escalated. The military use and abuse of each of the several major global habitats - temperate, tropical, desert, arctic, insular and oceanic - are evaluated separately in the light of the civil use and abuse of that habitat.

"This publication responds to the need for providing fresh insights into the new international order, into the Russian Federation's aggressive war against Ukraine, into the protection of people and borders, into armaments and, finally, into the threats caused by digitalisation, artificial intelligence and cyberspace. It is also a reflection of the achievements made in the field of security studies by the Faculty of Political Science and International Studies, University of Warsaw - Poland's leading academic centre. Three departments in the Faculty actively pursue this area of research: the Department of Internal Security, the Department of Strategic Studies and International Security, and the Department of Information Technologies"--
