Abstract

Contemporary security development is characterized by growing interdependence of security phenomena at local, national, regional and global level (Kegley, Wittkopf 2006). Within the world regions regional security complexes with their regional security orders were established (Stewart-Ingersoll, Frazier: 2012). The so called “new definition”of the regional security complex is related to „a set of units whose major processes of securitization, desecuritization or both are so interlinked that their security problems cannot reasonably be analyzed or resolved apart from one another“ (Buzan, Waever, de Wilde 1997: 201)“.

Abstract

An urgently needed examination of the current cyber revolution that draws on case studies to develop conceptual frameworks for understanding its effects on international order The cyber revolution is the revolution of our time. The rapid expansion of cyberspace brings both promise and peril. It promotes new modes of political interaction, but it also disrupts interstate dealings and empowers non-state actors who may instigate diplomatic and military crises. Despite significant experience with cyber phenomena, the conceptual apparatus to analyze, understand, and address their effects on international order remains primitive. Here, Lucas Kello adapts and applies international relations theory to create new ways of thinking about cyber strategy. Kello draws on a broad range of case studies, including the Estonian crisis, the Olympic Games operation against Iran, and the cyber attack against Sony Pictures. Synthesizing qualitative data from government documents, forensic reports of major incidents and interviews with senior officials from around the globe, this important work establishes new conceptual benchmarks to help security experts adapt strategy and policy to the unprecedented challenges of our times.

Abstract

This book contains 20 papers drawn from presentations and discussions at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Complex Societal Dynamics: Security Challenges and Opportunities, held in Zagreb, Croatia in December 2009. The theory of complex systems views societies as complex configurations of actors engaged in overlapping and interlocking patterns of relationship. While the rapid development of computing capabilities has provided the tools to study complex systems in a controlled, repeatable and rigorous manner, these are rarely applied to the security domain, and security experts are not ade

Abstract

De bestrijding van overlast en criminaliteit is uitgegroeid tot het werkveld van allerlei organisaties. Hierdoor zijn netwerken ontstaan die niet altijd even overzichtelijk zijn. Scherp geformuleerd kan de lokale veiligheidszorg enigszins als een chaos worden bestempeld. Daarom staan autoriteiten voor een grote uitdaging: hoe kunnen gemeenten en politiekorpsen richting geven aan veiligheidsnetwerken? In Strategieën van lokale veiligheid: een achtergrondstudie en drie reflecties wordt geprobeerd antwoorden te formuleren op de geconstateerde complexiteit. Een aantal deskundige auteurs (Ronald va

Abstract

2017 wird der ukrainische Journalist Stanislav Aseyev im okkupierten Donezk verhaftet und wegen "Extremismus" sowie "Spionage" zu 15 Jahren Haft verurteilt - unter anderem, weil er in seinen Reportagen aus dem Kriegsgebiet das Wort "Donezker Volksrepublik" in Anführungszeichen gesetzt hatte. Zweieinhalb Jahre verbringt er in Haft, den Großteil in der so genannten "Isolation", einem Donezker Foltergefängnis mit der Adresse Heller Weg 3. Die dortige ehemalige Fabrik wurde 2014 in ein Konzentrationslager verwandelt und steht seither unter Moskauer Kontrolle. Hinter dem Gefängniszaun gelten keine Gesetze, das Leben ist bestimmt von Demütigung, Angst und Folter. Um in der Hölle des Lagers überleben zu können, schreibt Aseyev, wann immer er kann: auf Pappfetzen und Papierresten. Er lernt Textfragmente auswendig und sagt sie vor sich her. So kann er sie bewahren, obwohl ihm seine Aufzeichnungen später abgenommen werden. Offen, tiefgründig und emotional berichtet der Journalist von Leid, das im heutigen Europa unvorstellbar scheint. Seine Mission ist es zu überleben, um berichten zu können. Ende 2019 kommt Aseyev durch einen Gefangenenaustausch zwischen Russland und der Ukraine frei. Das Buch legt Zeugnis ab über ein heutiges Konzentrationslager, von dem nur wenige wissen, obwohl das UNO-Hochkommissariat für Menschenrechte dortige Folterungen dokumentiert hat. Diese Erzählung handelt davon, wie es gelingen kann, menschlich zu bleiben unter unmenschlichen Bedingungen; von Glauben,Vergebung, Hass - und dem Leben danach.
