Radicalized
The attacks in Paris in January and November 2015 heralded the beginning of a new wave of terrorism - one rooted in the ongoing conflict in Syria and Iraq. As ISIS seeks to expand its reach in the Middle East, its territory serves as a base for training and operations for a new generation of jihadis. Thousands of young people from the West, primarily from Europe, have travelled to join ISIS, re-emerging as hardened fighters with military training and a network of international contacts. Many of these have now returned to their homelands, where it is feared they are planning a new series of brutal attacks. Peter R. Neumann here explains the phenomenon of the 'new jihadis', and shows why the threat of terrorism in the West is greater than ever before. Based on interviews and previously-unseen material, Neumann provides an essential introduction to one of the greatest crises of our time
World in Danger
A vision of a European future of peace and stability despite the present gloom The world appears to be at another major turning point. Tensions between the United States and China threaten a resumption of great power conflict. Global institutions are being tested as never before, and hard-edged nationalism has resurfaced as a major force in both democracies and authoritarian states. From the European perspective, the United States appears to be abdicating its global leadership role. Meanwhile, Moscow and Beijing eagerly exploit every opportunity to pit European partners against one another. But a pivot point also offers the continent an opportunity to grow stronger. In World in Danger, Wolfg...
Artificial Intelligence and International Conflict in Cyberspace
This edited volume explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming international conflict in cyberspace. Over the past three decades, cyberspace developed into a crucial frontier and issue of international conflict. However, scholarly work on the relationship between AI and conflict in cyberspace has been produced along somewhat rigid disciplinary boundaries and an even more rigid sociotechnical divide – wherein technical and social scholarship are seldomly brought into a conversation. This is the first volume to address these themes through a comprehensive and cross-disciplinary approach. With the intent of exploring the question ‘what is at stake with the use of automation in...
論混合戰之概念與實踐：戰略的視角
《論混合戰之概念與實踐：戰略的視角》討論的議題，無論就學術或實務而言，均是最重要與迫切需要的研究領域。過去，臺灣雖有一些小篇論文的出版，但要集結成書如《論混合戰之概念與實踐：戰略的視角》，讓讀者可深入了解混合戰的相關理論與實踐，是一項新穎的學術貢獻。歐洲國家受到俄羅斯威脅而偏好使用「混合戰」，在美國較為慣用的名詞是「灰色地帶衝突」，兩者均強調軍事與非軍事手段的結合，首要之務均是以不要跨越戰爭門檻，避免直接進行戰爭行為，達到屈服敵人抵抗的目標。本書值得推薦給對相關�...
Deutsche Interessen
Deutschland braucht eine neue außenpolitische Kultur! Hierfür plädierte eine junge Gruppe aus dem "Tönissteiner Kreis" 2010 in der Frühjahrsausgabe von WeltTrends und forderte eine klare Formulierung deutscher Interessen. Die angestoßene Debatte stieß auf große Resonanz und wurde von jungen Akademikern aufgenommen, die sich nicht scheuten, eigene Anregungen für die deutsche Außenpolitik zu formulieren und zentrale Thesen des Plädoyers in Frage zu stellen: Worin bestand das Neue, worin das Deutsche an der Forderung nach einer Interessendefinition? Das Papier gibt die lebhafte Debatte des außenpolitischen Nachwuchses wieder, die 2010 innerhalb wie außerhalb der Zeitschrift geführt wurde.
Lumea în pericol
Nicicând după încheierea Războiului Rece nu a fost situația mondială mai tensionată decât în prezent. Nu doar amenințarea atomică planează asupra lumii contemporane, ci și problemele de securitate cibernetică, terorismul și, nu în ultimul rând, schimbările climatice, pe care nimeni nu le mai poate ignora. Mai mult, spune Wolfgang Ischinger, deși ar trebui să fim mereu pregătiți pentru surprize, ne este din ce în ce mai greu să ne menținem în gardă. Față în față cu această situație, statele reacționează paradoxal: în loc să conlucreze, se adâncesc în politica internă și refuză dialogul. Dar soluții există întotdeauna. Wolfgang Ischinger este un om...
Die Politik Deutschlands gegenüber Zentralasien
Seit 1990 ist die vereinte, wieder souveräne Bundesrepublik Deutschland auf der Suche nach ihrer Rolle in der Welt. Auch die akademische Debatte um die Orientierung deutscher Außenpolitik und die ihr zugrundeliegenden Interessen hält seitdem an. In welchem Verhältnis stehen Normen und Werte einerseits und pragmatische, meist wirtschaftliche Interessen andererseits zueinander? Wie verhält sich die deutsche Außenpolitik zur europäischen? Beeinflusst oder dominiert die deutsche Position gar die europäische? Am Beispiel der deutschen Außenpolitik gegenüber den zentralasiatischen Staaten Kasachstan, Kirgisistan, Tadschikistan, Turkmenistan und Usbekistan werden diese Fragen diskutiert.
Kriegserfahrungen
Der Band fasst die innovativen Ergebnisse des Sonderforschungsbereichs 'Kriegserfahrungen - Krieg und Gesellschaft in der Neuzeit' (SFB 437) an der Universität Tübingen in einem großen Überblick zusammen. Themen des SFB und des Buches sind die Erfahrung, Wahrnehmung und Deutung von Kriegen der Neuzeit in Europa und Nordamerika, ist der 'Krieg in den Köpfen' vom Dreißigjährigen Krieg bis zum Krieg in Vietnam. Drei Felder stehen im Zentrum: der Zusammenhang von Nation, Nationsbildung und Krieg, die Interaktion zwischen Religion bzw. Konfession und Krieg sowie die Rolle der Medien und der Nachrichtenproduktion, die den 'Krieg in der Ferne' zum 'Krieg in der Nähe' schrumpfen ließ.
Programming in Haskell
Haskell is one of the leading languages for teaching functional programming, enabling students to write simpler and cleaner code, and to learn how to structure and reason about programs. This introduction is ideal for beginners: it requires no previous programming experience and all concepts are explained from first principles via carefully chosen examples. Each chapter includes exercises that range from the straightforward to extended projects, plus suggestions for further reading on more advanced topics. The author is a leading Haskell researcher and instructor, well-known for his teaching skills. The presentation is clear and simple, and benefits from having been refined and class-tested over several years. The result is a text that can be used with courses, or for self-learning. Features include freely accessible Powerpoint slides for each chapter, solutions to exercises and examination questions (with solutions) available to instructors, and a downloadable code that's fully compliant with the latest Haskell release.
