Die Entwicklung der Southern African Development Community (SADC) als Building Block der panafrikanischen Einheit
Die Herausforderung der doppelten Integration und wichtige Einflussfaktoren
Schriften zur internationalen Politik
Die derzeitige Weltordnung ist ohne die Gegenwart regionaler Integrationsprozesse nicht mehr vorstellbar. Nicht nur in Europa, sondern auch in vielen anderen Regionen der Erde sind in den letzten Jahrzehnten Systeme regionaler Kooperation und Integration entstanden. Auch der afrikanische Kontinent ist von diesem Phänomen erfasst worden. Die dortigen Staats- und Regierungschefs haben 1991 mit dem Vertrag von Abuja allerdings die Weichen für eine besondere Art und Weise der […]

The Traditio-Historical Context of the Resurrection Hope and its Significance for the Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg
THEOS – Studienreihe Theologische Forschungsergebnisse
The book attempts to find the connection between Pannenberg’s theology and the tradition-historical context on which it is based.
Scripture bears witness to different ideas concerning life and death. These notions have been modified and undergone changes throughout history. Thus, the idea that the life is fulfilled on the earth in the fellowship with God changed into the hope for a life fulfilled beyond the boundaries of death, in the world to come. The […]

Americanisation or Europeanisation of Antitrust Laws and Their Extraterritorial Enforcement Under Recent Reform Initiatives
Studienreihe wirtschaftsrechtliche Forschungsergebnisse
The author analyses the systems of private antitrust damages actions in the United States of America, Germany and at the European Community level. Treble damages actions in the US have set the international standard for private antitrust damages claims. However, the re-evaluation of private antitrust enforcement by the American Modernization Commission and its consecutive proposals revived the debate for changing the interplay between public and private antitrust […]

The Contribution of Foundations to an Ecofriendly and Sustainable Development

However, there is a lack of research on the contribution of environmental foundation for an ecofriendly and sustainable development. This scientific desideratum occurs especially in Germany where no comprehensive database on foundations exists, and only estimations about their environmental […]

Place-Name Changes
Proceedings of the Symposion in Rome, 17–18 November 2014
Name & Place – Contributions to Toponymic Literature and Research
Languages are promoted by political powers and are dependent on them. In a historical dimension languages come and go depending on political support. Place names as elements of language are part of this historical fluctuation. Due to their symbolic role as markers of geographical features, territories and space-related identities, however, they are even more exposed to political change.
At any time the replacement of the dominant political or cultural force […]

The export of non-traditional export products in the agricultural sector is considered as one of the strategies to address poverty. However, concerns are been raised about the free trade policy, stating that free trade may not necessarily be benefiting all participants equally. In other words, other nations, […]

Confirmation of the Definitions
Proceedings of the 16th UNGEGN Working Group on Exonyms Meeting, Hermagor, 5–7 June 2014
Name & Place – Contributions to Toponymic Literature and Research

The United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN), whose main task is the international standardization of geographical […]

Die Bedeutung von IT-Funktionalitäten für den Erfolg virtueller Communities
INTERNET – Praxis und Zukunftsanwendungen des Internets
Durch die Entwicklung des Web 2.0 ist die Bedeutung von virtuellen Communities in den vergangenen Jahren stetig gewachsen. Die Popularität einiger weniger Communities, wie z. B. Facebook und StudiVZ, hat dazu geführt, dass die Anzahl entsprechender Angebote rasant zugenommen hat. Dennoch erscheinen nach der ersten Euphorie seit einiger Zeit immer wieder Pressemeldungen, die die Probleme virtueller Communities deutlich machen. Sie geraten aufgrund massiver Eingriffe in die […]
