Die Mordserie des NSU (2000-2006), der Terroranschlag von Anders Breivik (2011), das Attentat in München (2016), das Massaker von Christchurch (2019), der Mord an Walter Lübcke (2019), die Anschläge von Halle (2019) und Hanau (2020), zuletzt ein vereitelter Putschplan deutscher Reichsbürger (2022): Rechtsextreme Gewalt beschäftigt uns schon lange - und in den letzten Jahren besonders massiv.

Democratic Responses to Terrorism tackles how to protect democratic societies against terrorist violence while, at the same time, making sure that the steps democracies take to protect themselves do no fundamental harm to the rule of law and the rights of citizens. With a foreword by Fernando Henrique Cardoso, former president of Brazil, the essays here assess such elements as the role of the legal framework, human rights, democracy and civil society, as well as international cooperation.

The series explores one of the most pressing issues of our time: how to reconcile the...

Die Herkunft des Monadenbegriffs aus pythagoreischen, hermetischen und neuplatonischen Kontexten wird von der Renaissance bis in die Aufklarung immer wieder von Neuem und in diversen Debattenzusammenhangen reflektiert. Dabei erfahrt das Konzept vielfaltige Modifikationen und Umdeutungen. Um diese Zusammenhange und die diversen Implikationen - metaphysische, universalwissenschaftliche, theologische als auch mathematische, physikalische und lebenswissenschaftliche - geht es im vorliegenden Band.

Johann Arndt (1555-1621), ein zu seiner Zeit zwar beruhmter, aber nicht unumstrittener lutherischer Erbauungsschriftsteller, greift in seinem Werk auf verschiedene naturphilosophische und mystische Traditionen zuruck, um die Streittheologie seiner Zeit hin zu einer Reformation christlicher Lebenspraxis zu uberwinden.

Die naturphilosophischen Implikationen von Arndts Schriften haben in der bisherigen Forschung jedoch kaum Beachtung gefunden. Daher untersucht vorliegende Arbeit hauptsachlich den naturphilosophischen Hintergrund Johann Arndts. Dabei geben insbesondere die fruhen...

Radicalization has become one of the great buzzwords of our time. A Google search for the concept produces more than 1,500,000 hits less than terrorism but equal to political violence and extremism . This may seem surprising, given that the term entered the academic vocabulary just ten years ago. Previous generations of scholars had, of course, been interested in why and how people become extremists, but there was no separate field of inquiry which brought together the many political scientists, historians, area studies and terrorism experts, social-movement theorists, and psychologists...

This is the first book to set out a comprehensive framework by which to understand terrorism as strategy. It contends that even terrorism of the supposedly nihilist variety can be viewed as a bona fide method for distributing means to fulfil the ends of policy, that is, as a strategy.

The main purpose of the work is to describe the dynamics of terrorism and evaluate their effectiveness, as well as to theorize upon, and clarify the correlation between, political ends and terrorist means. The text explains the modus operandi of terrorism, and demonstrates how terrorism relies on...
