Until the late 1980s, Japan was the only country in Asia with notable political and economic relations. Since then, however, several Asian nations have perceived growing links with the Latin American region as a means of diversifying their political and particularly economic relations while many Latin American decision-makers have increasingly recognised the strategic importance of East Asia in their foreign policy and foreign economic policy designs. This book analyses the economic, political and socio-cultural relations between Asia and Latin America and examines their growing importance in international relations. In the first part of the book the contributors look at the policies, interests and strategies of individual Asian and Latin American states, while the second part delves into the analysis of multilateral institution-building in Asia-Latin America relations,. As such, Asia and Latin America will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate scholars of comparative politics, international relations, Asian politics and Latin American politics.

Ever since the Asia-Pacific transformed from an 'institutional desert' into one of the most networked areas in the world, questions of the region's future and the future of the global system have become closely intertwined. This volume explores the key issues of regional co-operation, economic and political integration, security relations and international affairs within and across the Asia-Pacific. The expert contributors shed critical light on how significant developments are impacting on the global system. In particular, they consider emerging forms of global governance, and how the Asia-Pacific as a region, individual countries such as China, Japan, South Korea and the US, and regional organizations and forums like APEC are shaping the world. Uniquely, the discussion is not limited to East Asia but also takes Latin America prominently into the equation. This timely book will prove to be a stimulating read for academics, students, researchers and policy makers with an interest in Asian studies, development and agriculture, economics, international studies. Contributors: R.P. Appelbaum, M. Chen, C.M. Dent, H. Dobson, J. Dosch, M. Falck Reyes, Q. Fang, D.S.G. Goodman, J. Henderson, Y. Hong, J.L. Leon-Manriquez, S.A. Oyen, C.H. Park, R. Parker, J.

Die Globalisierung, begleitet von der De- und Transnationalisierung von Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft, Politik und Kultur, schreitet weiter kontinuierlich voran. Der daraus resultierende Bedeutungsverlust des Nationalstaates wirft die Frage auf, welche Rolle grenzüberschreitende Kooperation spielen kann und soll. Das Buch analysiert und vergleicht Leistungen und Herausforderungen der wichtigsten regionalen Zusammenschlüsse in Asien: Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), Eurasische Wirtschaftsunion, Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) und Ansätze zur Schaffung einer ostasiatischen Gemeinschaft. Die Rolle der Europäischen Union in Asien findet ebenfalls Beachtung. Kennzeichen des asiatischen Regionalismus ist, dass er zwar von formalen Institutionalisierungsprozessen geleitet wird, informellen Regelsystemen jedoch eine ebenso bedeutsame Funktion zukommt. Hat dieser Ansatz zu einer fortschreitenden regionalen Integration geführt oder ist nach mehreren Jahrzehnten der Zusammenarbeit in Asien eine Stagnation der Initiativen zu beobachten?

Development cooperation has long been a subject of controversy. Which approaches produce lasting results? Where do persistent challenges remain? And when must we acknowledge outright failure? Such questions are plentiful, yet reliable answers remain scarce. This book delivers a rigorous and nuanced assessment of development cooperation’s effectiveness. Its analysis is grounded in a wide-ranging review of independent evaluation reports and several hundred expert interviews. Detailed examples from more than 50 donor and recipient countries on five continents, spanning over two decades, offer a uniquely broad evidence base. Special attention is given to European Union and German initiatives. The focus lies on the effectiveness of good governance - widely regarded as the cornerstone of global development in the 21st century. First published in German, this English edition was facilitated by artificial intelligence and subsequently revised, expanded, and updated by the authors for accuracy and relevance.
Die ökonomische Dynamik politischer Herrschaft
Das pazifische Asien und Lateinamerika

Wie die Neunzigerjahre gezeigt haben, vollzieht sich der Wandel zu Demokratie und Marktwirtschaft in den meisten Staaten Lateinamerikas und des pazifischen Asiens kaum ohne schmerzhafte Begleiterscheinungen. Vielmehr waren in vielen der dortigen ernerging markets ökonomische Krisen zu beobachten. Die oftmals vertretene These, dass solche Krisen maßgeblich durch internationale Rahmenbedingungen wie etwa der Veränderung des internationalen Finanzsystems verursacht worden seien, greift jedoch zu kurz. Vielmehr ist der Frage nachzugehen, warum ökonomische Reformen in vielen Ländern Lateinamerikas und des pazifischen Asiens dergestalt durchgefiihrt wurden, dass sie mittel- bis langfristig die ökonomische Verwundbarkeit gegenüber externen Einflüssen erhöhten. Die Beiträge in diesem Sammelband gehen hierbei von der Grundannahme aus, dass die konkrete Ausprägung wirtschaftlicher Reformen im Sinne einer "Konstruktion" von Märkten auch das Ergebnis von politischen und gesellschaftlichen Interessen ist. Es ist daher zu fragen, wie politische und gesellschaftliche Interessen mit nationalen und internationalen Rahmenbedingungen zusammenwirkten. Welche Inter essen und welche Koalitionen aus politischen und gesellschaftlichen Akteuren lagen den ökonomischen Reformen zu Grunde und welche formellen, aber auch informellen Regeln strukturierten die wirtschaftspolitischen Entscheid ungsprozesse in den untersuchten Staaten? Grundlage flir diesen Sammelband war eine im Mai 1999 von der Konrad Adenauer-Stiftung und dem Institut ftir Politikwissenschaft der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität veranstalteten Tagung in St. Martin/Pfalz, bei der sich die Autoren mit der Suche nach Antworten auf die skizzierten Problem stellung beschäftigten. Dem Bildungswerk Mainz der KonradAdenauer Stiftung sei hiermit fiir die Finanzierung der Tagung gedankt.
Subversive Semantics in Political and Cultural Discourse
The Production of Popular Knowledge

The large-scale use of semantic transfer and inversion as rhetorical tactics is particularly prevalent in right-wing discourses and populist »alternative knowledge« production. The contributors to this volume analyze processes of re-semanticizing received meanings, effectually re-coding those meanings. They investigate to what extent rhetorical maneuvers serve to establish new and powerful belief systems beyond rational and democratic control. In addition to the contemporary rightwing and conspiracy narratives, the contributions examine the discursive fields around conceptions of human nature and the deep past, population politics, gender conceptions, use of land, identity politics, nationhood, and cultural heritage.
