Content: This Is Not an Atlas gathers more than 40 counter-cartographies from all over the world. This collection shows how maps are created and transformed as a part of political struggle, for critical research or in art and education: from indigenous territories in the Amazon to the anti-eviction movement in San Francisco; from defending commons in Mexico to mapping refugee camps with balloons in Lebanon; from slums in Nairobi to squats in Berlin; from supporting communities in the Philippines to reporting sexual harassment in Cairo. This Is Not an Atlas seeks to inspire, to document the underrepresented, and to be a useful companion when becoming a counter-cartographer yourself

Content: »Dieser Atlas könnte auch wie eine multiperspektivische Weltkarte gelesen werden, mit der man sich global orientieren, oder in die man lokal eintauchen kann.« Antje Lehn, dérive, 76 (2019) »Wer über die Welt der Diercke-Atlanten und Fischer-Weltalmanachs hinausblicken will, sollte unbedingt diese Publikation zur Hand nehmen. Er wird viel Gewinn daraus ziehen, wenn er die eindrucksvollen Beispiele durchblättert.« Burkhard Luber, www.dasmili.eu, 15.04.2019 »Ein Aufruf zum genauen Hinsehen, zur Transparenz in der Kartographie und zum Hinterfragen der eigenen Position, aus der heraus kartographiert wird.« Elena von Ohlen, Südlink, 187 (2019) O-Ton: »Wer Karten erstellt, hat Deutungsmacht« - Paul Schweizer vom kollektiv orangotango bei Deutschlandfunk Kultur am 14.03.2019.

Content: »Auch wenn politische Kämpfe nicht auf dem Papier ausgetragen werden, wie Halder und Michel schreiben: Karten sind Weisen der Welterzeugung und somit Instrumente, sie zu ändern.« Mladen Gladic, der Freitag, 11 (2019) »Das anregende Werk lädt zum Stöbern ein und bietet gleichzeitig vielfältige und nützliche Ideen und Werkzeuge für ›angehende Nicht-Kartografierer‹.« Peter Streiff, Contraste, 414 (2019) »Gemeinsam ist allen Beiträgen, dass sie mit den Wassern der Semiotik, Diskursanalyse, Dekonstruktion und Postkolonialität gewaschen sind. Forschung und Aktivismus sind für sie zwei Seiten derselben Medaille.« Diba Shokri, Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, 27.01.2019 »Ein Projekt spannender als das andere.

Content: The collapse of the communist monopoly across Central and Southeastern Europe in 1989/1990 initiated a process of rapid political, economic, and cultural change. While Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, and Serbia went on to suffer three and a half years of war, all the states of the region have confronted challenges as they dismantled communist institutions and drafted new laws, in some cases ignoring their own laws. Indeed, in certain countries, local politicians have done their best to corrupt the media and the economy, with recent years seeing some states move in an illiberal direction. Throughout the region, however, there has been a strong interest in enjoying the benefits of membership of the European Union and NATO. In this updated second edition, regional specialists comprehensively analyze the post-communist trajectories of the states of Central and Southeastern Europe, encompassing democratization, privatization, corruption, and war. It will appeal to students and scholars, whether they have a specific interest in the region, or are studying European politics more generally

Series Statement: Internationale Beziehungen Volume 25

Content: Diese Studie erforscht die internationale Arbeit der deutschen politischen Stiftungen und verbindet sie mit den IB-Theorien zu transnationalen Akteuren und der Public-Diplomacy-Literatur. Ein Public-Diplomacy-Modell wird verwendet, um die transnationalen Interaktionsprozesse der Stiftungen systematisch zu untersuchen. Es integriert verschiedene Ansätze und geht davon aus, dass Public Diplomacy in einem Netzwerkumfeld stattfindet. Die Aktivitäten zur Demokratieförderung und zum Konfliktmanagement der Stiftungen werden als bestimmte Formen der Public Diplomacy untersucht. In zwei Fallstudien wird das Rule-of-Law-Programm der Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Südosteuropa sowie die Aktivitäten der Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung in Südthailand betrachtet. Dabei wird auf ihre Strategien zur Verbreitung von Ideen, ihre Netzwerkbildung sowie ihre Ressourcen der Soft Power eingegangen.

Content: This study researches the international activities of German political foundations and their position within international relations theory. It juxtaposes the rationalist and constructivist approaches to the state and non-state relationship and the possible impact of transnational actors. The author uses a model of public diplomacy to systematically study the foundations’ transnational interaction processes. She integrates different public diplomacy approaches and assumes that public diplomacy occurs in a network environment. The study explores the foundations’ approaches to promoting democracy and managing conflict as collaborative or catalytic forms of public diplomacy. It conducts two case studies, one on the rule of law programme of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Southeast Europe and another on the activities of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung in Southern Thailand, by investigating those foundations’ strategies of ideational diffusion processes and networking, their soft power resources and their approaches to forming social relationships.

Content: In 'The Inclusion Calculation', Melody E. Valdini examines women's representation in politics and offers insights into men's strategies for using women to advance their own political ambitions. While it is certainly valuable to encourage women to run for office, it is equally important to understand the motivations of male power-holders. To that end, this text examines how men strategically feminize their political parties or government to retain control, demonstrating that a woman's selection as a candidate often depends on a man's perception of her value.

Content: Hasan al-Turabi (1932–2016) was seen as one of the most influential figures in modern Sudanese history and politics. This book, based on extensive research and a thorough analysis of al-Turabi's own writings, provides a comprehensive study of the upbringing, ideas and political career of the Islamist intellectual and political leader. Balancing hostile and favourable accounts of al-Turabi, it challenges assumptions of the 'Marxist' or 'Fascist' dynamics underpinning Islamism, arguing that its colonial and post-colonial origins define the nature of Islamism's message. By encouraging readers to move away from generic models and limited readings of Islamism, Willow Berridge opens new and vital research for the understanding of Islamic politics across the Middle East and Africa. It makes for an ideal read for both undergraduate and postgraduate students focusing on the modern Sudanese state, and those challenging core debates on democracy, the Islamic State and Jihad

Content: Waiting periods and deadlines are so ubiquitous that we often take them for granted. Yet they form a critical part of any democratic architecture. When a precise moment or amount of time is given political importance, we ought to understand why this is so. The Political Value of Time explores the idea of time within democratic theory and practice. Elizabeth F. Cohen demonstrates how political procedures use quantities of time to confer and deny citizenship rights. Using specific dates and deadlines, states carve boundaries around a citizenry. As time is assigned a form of political value it comes to be used to transact over rights. Cohen concludes with a normative analysis of the ways in which the devaluation of some people's political time constitutes a widely overlooked form of injustice. This book shows readers how and why they need to think about time if they want to understand politics

Series Statement: The Latin America Readers

Content: From the first encounters between the Portuguese and indigenous peoples in 1500 to the current political turmoil, the history of Brazil is much more complex and dynamic than the usual representations of it as the home of Carnival, soccer, the Amazon, and samba would suggest. This extensively revised and expanded second edition of the best-selling Brazil Reader dives deep into the past and present of a country marked by its geographical vastness and cultural, ethnic, and environmental diversity. Containing over one hundred selections—many of which appear in English for the first time and which range from sermons by Jesuit missionaries and poetry to political speeches and biographical portraits of famous public figures, intellectuals, and artists—this collection presents the lived experience of Brazilians from all social and economic classes, racial backgrounds, genders, and political perspectives over the past half millennium. Whether outlining the legacy of slavery, the roles of women in Brazilian public life, or the importance of political and social movements, The Brazil Reader provides an unparalleled look at Brazil’s history, culture, and politics.

Content: This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complexities of change and continuity in West Asia, its society, religion and politics. An overview of the region's political, social and economic characteristics brought into sharper relief with the on-going turmoil in the region constitutes the introduction of the book. While the subsequent two chapters, along with the introductory text, constitute the thematic overview and orientation of the book, the different chapters dedicated to specific countries explore the recent transformative developments in the region. These chapters chart the emergence of Islamist and post Islamist politics in Iran and Lebanon, elaborate upon the prevailing civil war conditions in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Libya, examine the impact of the Arab uprisings that began in 2011 on Egypt, Jordan and the Arab Gulf countries, and explore the intricate interplay between Islam and democracy in the present-day politics of Turkey. While highlighting politics, the texts of the chapters also delve into history, religion and foreign policy. This book will be as useful for the students of West Asian affairs as it will be for policymakers and any interested reader.

Series Statement: Routledge global cooperation series

Content: Throughout history, maps have been a powerful tool in the constitutive imaginary of governments seeking to define or contest the limits of their political reach. Today, new digital technologies have become central to mapping as a way of formulating alternative political visions. Mapping can also help marginalised communities to construct speculative designs using participatory practices. Mapping and Politics in the Digital Age explores how the development of new digital technologies and mapping practices are transforming global politics, power, and cooperation. The book brings together authors from across political and social theory, geography, media studies and anthropology to explore mapping and politics across three sections. Contestations introduces the reader to contemporary developments within mapping and explores the politics of mapping as a form of knowledge and contestation. Governance analyses mapping as a set of institutional practices, providing key methodological frames for understanding global governance in the realms of urban politics, refugee control, health crises and humanitarian interventions and new techniques of biometric regulation and autonomic computation. Imaginaries provides examples of future-oriented analytical frameworks, highlighting the transformation of mapping in an age of digital technologies of control and regulation. In a world conceived as without borders and fixed relations, new forms of mapping stress the need to rethink assumptions of power and knowledge. This book provides a sophisticated and nuanced analysis of the role ofmapping in contemporary global governance, and will be of interest to students and researchers working within politics, geography, sociology, media, and digital culture and technology
