Herzlich willkommen

Herzlich willkommen auf den Seiten des Lehrstuhls für Internationale Beziehungen und Außenpolitik.

Der Lehrstuhl beschäftigt sich in der politikwissenschaftlichen Lehre und Forschung mit der Bedeutung und dem Zusammenhang von Ideen, Individuen und Institutionen der Weltpolitik. Konkret geht es dabei um fünf miteinander verbundene Schwerpunktbereiche: Außenpolitik und Diplomatie, Internationale Organisationen und Global Governance, Friedens- und Konfliktforschung, Politische Theorie und Philosophie der Internationalen Beziehungen sowie Politik und Regieren unter den Bedingungen der Globalisierung. Im Fokus stehen dabei der Strukturwandel internationaler Beziehungen, das Wirkpotential von unterschiedlichen Akteuren und Ideen sowie die Transformation politischer Steuerungsprozesse. Eine Auswahl laufender Aktivitäten sowie aktuelle Informationen finden Sie auf der rechten Seite dieser Homepage.

 

 

Welcome

Welcome to the webpages of the Chair of International Relations and Foreign Policy.

Research and teaching of the Chair concentrate on the meaning and interaction of ideas, individuals and institutions in world politics. This entails five inter-connected foci: Foreign Policy and Diplomacy, International Organizations and Global Governance, Peace and Conflict Research, Political Theory and Philosophy of International Relations as well as Politics in an Era of Globalization. All of these foci deal with structural changes in International Relations, the relevance and impact of different actors and ideas as well as the transformation of governance on various levels. You can find a selection of ongoing activities and information on the right side of the webpage.

Fröhlich, Manuel/Abiodun Williams (Hrsg.), The UN Secretary-General and The Security Council. A Dynamic Relationship, Oxford 2018.

The United Nations Secretary-General and the United Nations Security Council spend significant amounts of time on their relationship with each other. They rely on each other for such important activities as peacekeeping, international mediation, and the formulation and application of normative standards in defense of international peace and security - in other words the executive aspects of the UN's work. The UN Secretary-General and the Security Council fills an important lacuna in the scholarship on the UN system. Although there exists today an impressive body of literature on the development and significance of the Secretariat and the Security Council as separate organs, an important gap remains in our understanding of the interactions between them. Bringing together some of the most prominent authorities on the subject, this volume is the first book-length treatment of this topic. It studies the UN from an innovative angle, creating new insights on the (autonomous) policy-making of international organizations, and adds to our understanding of the dynamics of intra-organizational relationships. Within the book, the contributors examine how each Secretary-General interacted with the Security Council, touching upon such issues as the role of personality, the formal and informal infrastructure of the relationship, the selection and appointment processes, as well as the Secretary-General's threefold role as a crisis manager, administrative manager, and manager of ideas.
