The Transnational Governance of Violence and Crime - Non-State Actors in Security (Hardcover): A. Jakobi, K. Wolf The Transnational Governance of Violence and Crime - Non-State Actors in Security (Hardcover)
A. Jakobi, K. Wolf
R3,511 Discovery Miles 35 110 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The state monopoly of force has increasingly been challenged by non-state actors, seemingly resulting in a loss of control and resources needed to guarantee security. Yet, non-state actors are not only a cause of problems; they can also contribute to guarantee security. The contributors examine the role of non-state actors in the governance of violence and crime. Current research on non-state actors in security points to the fact that the state monopoly of force has increasingly been challenged, seemingly resulting in a loss of control and resources. In contrast, this volume shows how non-state actors are involved in supporting governmental aims, what they contribute and where the limits are or should be. It demonstrates that even in a core area of the state, transnational governance is possible through the activities of a diverse group of actors, including warlords, rebel groups, criminals, non-governmental organizations and businesses.

Humoristische Chemie - Geschichten aus dem Wissenschaftsalltag (Paperback): Ralf A. Jakobi, Henning Hopf Humoristische Chemie - Geschichten aus dem Wissenschaftsalltag (Paperback)

R1,043 Discovery Miles 10 430 Out of stock

Wissenschaft - so ein landl ufiges Vorurteil - sei eine objektive und infolgedessen h chst ernste Angelegenheit. Und das erst recht, wenn es um Naturwissenschaften geht. Dass Chemiker ihrem eigenen Metier eine heitere Seite abgewinnen k nnen, sogar zu lesenswerten Werken der humoristischen Literatur inspiriert werden, belegen eindeutig die von Henning Hopf und Ralf Andreas Jakobi gesammelten, sowie selbst verfassten Beitr ge dieses Werkes. Mit den T cken des wissenschaftlichen Alltags musste schon jeder Forscher k mpfen, gut hat es derjenige, der auch diesen Widrigkeiten etwas Spa iges abgewinnen kann und so sich seine Freude an der Wissenschaft nicht verderben l sst. Im vorliegenden Buch wird mit einem selbstironischen Augenzwinkern ein Grundkurs in "Wissenschafts-B rokratie" gegeben, ber den Sinn und Unsinn des wissenschaftlichen Publizierens philosophiert, die t glichen K mpfe mit der Datenverarbeitung beschrieben und viele andere - leider meist erst im Nachhinein - humorvolle Begebenheiten. Jeder Wissenschaftler wird die eine oder andere Situation sicherlich wieder erkennen und nach der Lekt re die Beschwernisse des Wissenschaftlerlebens viel beschwingter oder wenigstens mit einem Schmunzeln berstehen k nnen. ... und so kann dieses Buch sogar zu einer praktischen " berlebens"-Hilfe im Forschungsalltag werden. Dieses Buch ist f r jeden Wissenschaftler, f r alle, die Wissenschaftler kennen und ihnen keinen Humor zutrauen oder - ganz im Gegenteil - nicht genug von ihrem Humor bekommen k nnen.
