Potenzielle Auswirkungen der EU-Antisubventionszölle auf den Import chinesischer Elektrofahrzeuge für den europäischen und chinesischen Automobilmarkt

Auf dem Punkt

Die Welt ist in Unordnung geraten, und China ist ein zentraler Faktor dieser Verschiebung: Der rasche Aufstieg der Volksrepublik zur zweitgrößten Wirtschaftsmacht zwingt die USA, Russland, die Europäische Union und den Globalen Süden, ihre Rolle in einer sich neu formierenden, womöglich multipolaren Welt neu zu bestimmen.
Die renommierte Sinologin Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik analysiert Chinas Weltmachtstrategie und ordnet sie in das Spannungsfeld der Rivalität mit den USA und Russland ein. Sie zeigt, welche Interessen China im asiatisch-pazifischen Raum verfolgt, warum die Taiwan-Frage und die Entwicklungen im Südchinesischen Meer zu zentralen geopolitischen Herausforderungen geworden sind, und welche Bedeutung neue multilaterale Bündnisse wie BRICS oder die Shanghai Cooperation Organization für die Neuordnung der Welt haben.
Im Zentrum steht dabei Europa. Denn der überraschende Befund dieses Buches lautet: Die Europäische Union ist im geopolitischen Machtspiel zwischen China, Russland und den USA kein Zuschauer, sondern ein Akteur, der am Ende entscheidend sein könnte. Ein kluges, hochaktuelles Buch, das hilft, China zu verstehen - und Europas Handlungsspielräume in einer Welt im Umbruch realistisch einzuordnen.

China und die Neuordnung der Welt

Das Positive: Putin und Trump zwingen uns zu Entscheidungen. Wollen wir unseren europäischen Weg gehen, die Ukraine unterstützen und unsere Zukunft nach eigenen Vorstellungen gestalten? Was sind wir bereit, dafür zu tun?
Oder geben wir uns, unsere Länder, unser Friedensprojekt EU, unser Leben in demokratischer Selbstbestimmtheit auf.
Der russisch-ukrainische Krieg ist der Lackmustest für uns und unsere Demokratien.

Ukraine: Warum es nur einen Weg zum Frieden gibt

Die Kinder des Sisyphos

Epic, shocking, and deeply reported, The Elements of Power tells the story of the war for the global supply of battery metals—essential for the decarbonization of our economies—and the terrible, bloody human cost of this badly misunderstood industry Congo is rich. Swaths of the war-torn African country lack basic infrastructure, and, after many decades of colonial occupation, its people are officially among the poorest in the world. But hidden beneath the soil are vast quantities of cobalt, lithium, copper, tin, tantalum, tungsten, and other treasures. Recently, this veritable periodic table of resources has become extremely valuable because these metals are essential for the global “energy transition”—the plan for wealthy nations to wean themselves off fossil fuels by shifting to sustainable forms of energy, such as solar and wind. The race to electrify the world’s economy has begun, and China has a considerable head start. From Indonesia to South America to Central Africa, Beijing has invested in mines and infrastructure for decades. But the U.S. has begun fighting back with massive investments of its own, as well as sanctions and disruptive tariffs. In this rush for green energy, the world has become utterly reliant on resources unearthed far away and willfully blind to the terrible political, environmental, and social consequences of their extraction. If the Democratic Republic of the Congo possesses such riches, why are its children routinely descending deep into treacherous mines to dig with the most rudimentary of tools, or in some cases their bare hands? Why are Indonesia’s seas and skies being polluted in a rush for battery metals? Why is the Western Sahara, a source for phosphates, still being treated like a colony? Who must pay the price for progress? With unparalleled, original reporting, Nicolas Niarchos reveals how the scramble to control these metals and their production is overturning the world order, just as the global race to drill for oil shaped the twentieth century. Exploring the advent of the lithium-ion battery and tracing the supply chain for its production, Niarchos tells the story both of the people driving these tectonic changes and those whose lives are being upended. He reveals the true, devastating consequences of our best intentions and helps us prepare for an uncertain future. If you have ever used a smartphone or driven an electric vehicle, you are implicated.

“A tale of rapacious colonialism, Cold War spy games, dazzling technical innovation, big business rivalry, big power geopolitics . . . Niarchos has produced an unflinching, landmark work on the nature of extractive capitalism.” —Patrick Radden Keefe, New York Times best-selling author of Empire of Pain and Say Nothing Epic, shocking, and deeply reported, The Elements of Power tells the story of the war for the global supply of battery metals—essential for the decarbonization of our economies—and the terrible, bloody human cost of this badly misunderstood industry Congo is rich.

A Story of War, Technology, and the Dirtiest Supply Chain on Earth

The Elements of Power

Studies in National Governance and Emerging Technologies

This book examines how artificial intelligence systems and their applications in security and defence are entangled with governance and policy processes in the EU. Combining concepts and insights from (critical) security studies and science and technology studies, it argues that behind the various AI-related policy initiatives in the EU are particular narratives on security and defence based on European fears of technological innovation and strategic gaps. In this respect, the book casts light on how such beliefs have become increasingly instrumentalized in the European governance dynamics, and subsequently embedded in successive policy initiatives and security and defence research programmes. It challenges conventional understandings of AI technologies as mere security and defence-enabling instruments, by providing a conceptually driven analysis of how certain visions of AI help govern and control one of the most dynamic emergent socio-technical fields. The book will appeal to all those interested in artificial intelligence, security studies, technology and European governance.&nbsp;

Bone Metal Soldier

A groundbreaking history of nuclear weapons across the world, from their invention to the end of the Cold War &nbsp; How should we deal with nuclear weapons? The discovery of nuclear fission fundamentally changed the world order. Its power was harnessed, nuclear bombs invented, and the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed. In recurring international crises and calls for arms control, the threat of nuclear war has hung over humanity ever since. &nbsp; David Holloway traces how these weapons shaped the last century, from the US-Soviet arms race to the rivalry between India and Pakistan. Deterrence and intimidation, alliances and war plans, international treaties and organizations have all played their role. At the centre were political leaders—among them Truman, Kennedy, and Reagan, as well as Stalin, Khrushchev, and Gorbachev—who all had their fingers on the nuclear button. &nbsp; This is a global history of these fearsome weapons and our attempts to deal with the consequences of their existence—a story at once fascinating and repellent, of a very dangerous period in our history.

The Langham Afternoon Tea Book

This book is structured in two major parts: the Modern Period and the Contemporary Period. The former (1840–1949) explores the interaction and integration of Chinese and Western educational ideas, with chapters dedicated to key trends. The latter (1949–2010) traces the evolution of educational thought through distinct historical stages. The overarching theme is China’s educational modernization as a contested, adaptive process—shaped by efforts to reconcile traditional values with global ideas, address national crises, and meet the needs of diverse populations. In the modern era, it focuses on how educators sought to "save the nation through education", debating whether reform or revolution was the path forward. In the contemporary era, it explores how education served socialist nation-building, navigated political upheavals, and evolved to support economic development and global integration. This volume is an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand China’s educational past and its implications for global education discourse. It is more than a history of Chinese education—it is a study of how a nation’s intellectual and educational journey reflects its quest for prosperity, equity, and cultural continuity. It invites readers to rethink assumptions about "modern" education and appreciate the complexity of educational reform in a rapidly changing society.

Russlands Krieg, Migration, Klimawandel, Inflation, Trump zum Zweiten? Es herrscht Endzeitstimmung, wieder einmal. Weltweit aktive Geheimdienste und hoch alimentierte Forschungseinrichtungen schaffen es nicht, Antworten auf dramatische Umbrüche des globalen Kräftespiels zu finden. Ja, die sie lenkenden Politikerinnen und Politiker liegen häufig vollkommen falsch. Man denke nur an die Einschätzungen der Entwicklung in Russland und China und innerhalb der EU in Ungarn und Polen. Seit Jahrzehnten beobachtet Paul Lendvai das Geschehen aus unmittelbarer Nähe. Er sieht sowohl die nachlassende Kraft liberaler Ideen als auch die verführerischen Angebote populistischer Autokraten. Konstant bleibt dabei nur eines: die Heuchelei.
