Danilo Di Mauro - Böcker

This book provides a comprehensive empirical analysis of the United Nations intervention in the Arab-Israeli conflict since 1947. In his structured and exhaustive analysis, the author presents a long term perspective on the UN intervention in the conflict and explains its evolution during the last sixty years. He draws on a wealth of quantitative data to provide a complete picture of resolutions addressed to the Arab-Israeli conflict by the General Assembly and the Security Council, the mediation activity, and the UN peace missions in the area. Through his analysis, Di Mauro addresses such questions as: Why did the United Nations have different involvement and efforts of interventions in the conflict?How did the role of the UN change during the dispute, and why did it change? Is there still a role for the UN in the Palestinian-Israeli peace process?Offering a contribution to both to the studies of UN intervention in conflict resolution and, more broadly, to the UN role in the international system, The UN and the Arab-Israeli Conflict will be of great interest to International Relation scholars and students, but also appreciable by historians, political scientists, methodologists and all the social scientists interested in the Palestine question and the United Nations.

This book explores the origins, characteristics, and impact of public support for the European Union (EU) on the process of EU integration.It examines core questions around the dynamics behind the (dis)integration processes, how multidimensional attitudes toward the EU are interrelated, the dimensions and cleavages of party competition, and the public-political elites link in EU policy-making. By simultaneously applying cleavage and post-functionalist theoretical perspectives, the book observes whether the era of multiple crises has changed support for the EU, creating a more polarized public whose attitudes can constrain, favor, or even stop integration and country membership.This book is of key interest to scholars and students of global governance, Euroscepticism, populism, public opinion, democracy, and more generally, European/EU studies and European politics.
