Christoph Lhotka | The Indo-Pacific region is arguably the new center of geopolitical and economic power. For this reason, established countries such as Germany are adapting their stances to regional realities. Stances towards China have been particularly fragile, which is why this inquiry aims to explain the negative public sentiment towards China in Germany.
Leon Mislej | Humanity seems to be good at fixing problems. With our ingenuity and ability to work together, we have overcome many challenges in the past and prospered. However, with climate change, we seem to be having much more difficulty. Despite major talks about solutions, we are still heading for a climate catastrophe.
João Jesus | In the South Caucasus, the unrecognized Republic of Artsakh has been disputed for decades both by Azerbaijan and Armenia. Nowadays, the enclave is known as Nagorno-Karabakh Region (NKR), and it is internationally recognized as part of the Azerbaijan Republic even though 99% of the population are ethnically Armenian.
Tatianne Iagallo Lélis | Nowadays, media-portrayed scripts and the sense of masculinity are closely connected, media images being key to transmitting the socialization of a dominant model in gender roles within society. This undeniably brings forth issues when considering the mental and physical health of men.
Karl Kilbo Edlund | Although nearly ubiquitous in the modern higher education sector, student evaluations of teaching, or course evaluations, have been frequently criticised in scientific literature. From a student’s vantage point, these feedback systems represent one of the most commendable ideals of modern pedagogy: the involvement of student voices in course design and development.
Miša Glišič | The European Union of today is the result of a process that began over half a century ago. I personally understand »union« as a word that includes and connects diverse cultural mindsets. The EU as a community should serve the people and their diversity since hybridity overall is essential in every aspect of life. What creates the framework of our existence?
Fiona De Cuyper | Climate change and the Covid-19 pandemic are the hallmark challenges of the 21st century, yet their intersection is not often discussed. Despite its devastating effects, this paper argues that the pandemic can be seen as an opportunity for a green recovery in Europe.
Manouk Driessens | For a long time since the end of the second World War, Japan was considered a pariah in international relations. In recent years, however, the question has been raised of whether Japan has returned to the international scene as a ‘normal power’.
Matthew McCarthy | If you take a closer look at the microeconomics curriculum taught at many European universities, you might find it worrisome, if not deeply problematic. It frames a discourse around ‘the consumer’, ‘profit seeking firms’ and ‘rationality’, and in doing so, locks our economic imagination into strict ideological borders.
Pau Álvarez Aragonès | Since the armistice of 1953, the fire between both Koreas stopped – yet the war has not officially ended, as there has not been any peace treaty to date. This paper handles the following research question: “Have the diplomatic summits in 2018 and 2019 been effective towards the development of an inter-Korean peace agreement?”. In order to answer the question, this paper has tried to measure the effectiveness of the Summits through the degree of compliance with the main points of the Summits using three categories as the main elements for a peace treaty: security provisions, economic cooperation and identity construction.
