In diesem Buch werden die komplexen Herausforderungen untersucht, mit denen das internationale humanitäre Recht im Angesicht moderner Kriege konfrontiert ist. Es analysiert, wie die historischen Prinzipien der Genfer Konventionen, ihrer Zusatzprotokolle und anderer Abkommen durch die sich ständig verändernden Dynamiken der Konflikte in Syrien, Gaza und der Ukraine herausgefordert werden. Asymmetrische Kriegsführung, Cyberkriege, Urbanisierung der Kriegsführung, Privatisierung von Kriegen, Umweltkriegsführung, Hybride Kriegsführung und Bündniskriege sind nur einige der modernen Phänomene, mit denen sich die altehrwürdigen Konventionen heute auseinandersetzen müssen. Von den Straßen Aleppos und den Trümmern von Gaza bis zu den umkämpften Gebieten der Ukraine bietet dieses Buch einen unverzichtbaren Einblick in die realen Auswirkungen der Kriegsführung im 21. Jahrhundert auf die Zivilbevölkerung. Durch eine sorgfältige Untersuchung dieser Konflikte wirft der Autor ein kritisches Licht auf die Lücken und Unzulänglichkeiten der aktuellen Regelungen und schlägt notwendige Reformen zur Anpassung an die moderne Kriegsführung vor. Dieses Buch ist für alle, die sich für internationales Recht, Menschenrechte und die Weiterentwicklung des humanitären Völkerrechts interessieren. Es bietet nicht nur eine detaillierte Analyse der aktuellen Konflikte, sondern auch einen visionären Blick auf die Zukunft des internationalen Rechts in einer immer komplexeren und vernetzten Welt

"Placing space and place at the center of its analysis enables Hate in the Homeland to focus on hate groups and far right extremism not only as static, organized movements but also as flows of youth who move in and out of the periphery and interstitial spaces of far right scenes, rather than only studying youth at the definable or fixed core of far right extremist movements. For many-perhaps even most-far right youth, Miller-Idriss argues that extremist engagement is characterized by a process of moving in and out of far right scenes throughout their adolescence and adulthood in ways that scholars and policymakers have yet to understand. Hate in the Homeland will make a critical intervention into the literature on extremism by showing how youth on the margins are mobilized through flexible engagements in mainstream-style physical and virtual spaces which the far right has actively targeted for this purpose. This approach to far right extremism and radicalization significantly broadens what we know about the far right, and how people engage with it"--

The state of Oaxaca has always held a distinct position in Mexico: Not only is it among the poorest, but its population is also considered to be particularly combative. It therefore does not seem surprising that the state harbors the most prominent and vocal union section of the teachers' union SNTE and the dissident teachers' movement CNTE. The power and influence of the Sección 22 reach beyond the limits of educational matters and the schools and into state politics, affecting the lives of many Oaxacans - also due to frequent street blockades and strikes that lead to educational deficits for children. The teachers' embeddedness in society and their narrative of protest sets their struggle in the context of the defense of the entire Mexican people's rights and in the idea of the state's cultural heritage. The result is an outstandingly strong social movement, apparently organizing in protest as a reflex against government policies, even when these aim at a long-necessary democratization
