Kyiv is getting new weapons from the West, and Russia has hundreds of thousands of freshly-trained mobilised reservists as well as a new commander. But will the stalemate end? Will Ukraine be able to push Russia back nearer to its borders, or will Russia regain the initiative and march on Kyiv once more? Will Ukraine's long night of horror and death come to an end anytime soon?

How do we make sense of Turkey's recent turn against the West – after decades of Turkish cooperation and desire to be integrated into the European and wider Western community in terms of foreign policy? Dr. Oya Dursun-Özkanca's new book Turkey-West Relations: The Politics of Intra-alliance Opposition (Cambridge UP, 2019) interrogates the dynamics of the relationship between Turkey and the West, particularly the EU, NATO, and the United States. The compelling book develops a framework of intra-alliance opposition to explain this shift from Turkey's engagement with the West as a desirable ally to Turkey's increasingly hostility to the West after 2010. Moving beyond the power and personality of Erdogan, Dursun-Özkanca develops an analytical framework of the politics of intra-alliance opposition and provides a comprehensive and nuanced account of how and why Turkish foreign policy has changed within the transatlantic alliance. She offers three categories of intra-alliance opposition behavior: boundary testing; boundary challenging; boundary breaking. She deploys these categories to differentiate between the motivations behind the use of each tool – providing an analysis of Turkey that can also be exported to other cases. This extensively researched book depends upon extensive fieldwork and more than 200 semi-structured elite interviews conducted with government officials, diplomats, academics, officials, and journalists in Turkey, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cyprus, the UK, Germany, and the U.S. The book provides 6 case studies (Turkey's pragmatic foreign policy in the Western Balkans, the Turkish vote over the EU-NATO security exchange, the EU-Turkey deal on the refugee crisis, Turkey's energy policies, Turkish rapprochement with Russia in security and defense and Turkish foreign policy on Syria and Iraqi) that demonstrate the 3 categories. The book concludes three possible alternative futures for Turkey's relations with the West and the podcast includes an analysis of what the change in U.S. leadership (Biden-Blinken) might mean for Turkish-Western relations. Dr. Dursun-Özkanca is the Endowed Chair of International Studies and Professor of Political Science at Elizabethtown College. She has edited two books – The European Union as an Actor in Security Sector Reform (Routledge, 2014) and External Interventions in Civil Wars (co-edited with Stefan Wolff, Routledge, 2014) – and has a forthcoming book entitled The Nexus Between Security Sector Reform/Governance and Sustainable Development Goal-16: An Examination of Conceptual Linkages and Policy Recommendations, forthcoming by Geneva Centre for Security Sector Governance (DCAF) (London: Ubiquity Press). Susan Liebell is an associate professor of political science at Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia. Why Diehard Originalists Aren't Really Originalists recently appeared in the Washington Post's Monkey Cage and “Retreat from the Rule of Law: Locke and the Perils of Stand Your Ground” was published in the Journal of Politics (July 2020).

How do we make sense of Turkey’s recent turn against the West – after decades of Turkish cooperation and desire to be integrated into the European and wider Western community in terms of foreign policy? Dr. Oya Dursun-Özkanca’s new book Turkey-West Relations: The Politics of Intra-alliance Opposition (Cambridge UP, 2019) interrogates the dynamics of the relationship between Turkey and the West, particularly the EU, NATO, and the United States. The compelling book develops a framework of intra-alliance opposition to explain this shift from Turkey’s engagement with the West as a desirable ally to Turkey’s increasingly hostility to the West after 2010. Moving beyond the power and personality of Erdogan, Dursun-Özkanca develops an analytical framework of the politics of intra-alliance opposition and provides a comprehensive and nuanced account of how and why Turkish foreign policy has changed within the transatlantic alliance. She offers three categories of intra-alliance opposition behavior: boundary testing; boundary challenging; boundary breaking. She deploys these categories to differentiate between the motivations behind the use of each tool – providing an analysis of Turkey that can also be exported to other cases.

In der Episode #023 sprechen wir mit Stefan Wolff über die Manngeburt, die Schwitzhütte und warum das eigentlich jeder Mann sehr gut gebrauchen könnte. Warum? Weil es bei der Manngeburt auch um die Frage geht, was willst du wirklich und was bist du? Genau solche tiefgründigen Fragen wird auf den Grund gegangen. Vielleicht fehlt dir auch etwas und du weisst aber nicht was? Du bist schon sehr lange auf der Suche danach. Dann kann dich Stefan vielleicht inspirieren. Wir sprechen auch über die Medizinwanderung. Um was es dort geht, darüber sprechen wir in unserem Podcast. Ein anderes sehr spannendes Thema ist die Schwitzhütte. Warum man mit anderen Männern in eine Sauna geht und was dort besprochen wird, dabei klärt uns Stefan auf. Das beste an der Manngeburt ist, es hilft dir nicht nur in dem Bereich, wo du denkst das du Hilfe benötigst. Es klärt und vereinfacht auch viele andere Bereiche in deinem Leben. Lass dich überraschen und sei offen für neues. Vorstellung Gast: Stefan Wolff (57 Jahre alt) ist Diplomierter-Sozialpädagoge und Initiatischer Therapeut. Er ist im Bereich Naturcoaching und Psychotherapie in eigener Praxis tätig. In Zusammenarbeit mit Kolleg/Innen und Schülern seiner Akademie hat er ein vielseitiges, nachhaltiges Beratungskonzept für Einzelpersonen, Paare und Firmen geschaffen. Sein Buch «Wie Phönix aus der Asche» beschreibt ausführlich seinen, von ihm entwickelten Männer-Initiationszyklus «Manngeburt». Momentan arbeitet Stefan an einem Buch zum Thema «Wie Partnerschaft gelingen kann» Gezielte, bestimmte Fragen könnte ich gar nicht nennen. Ich kann nur beschreiben, welche Themen sich immer wieder zeigen. Zum Beispiel kommen immer wieder Männer in meine Praxis, für die das Wahrnehmen der eigenen Bedürfnisse komplettes Neuland ist. Das äussert sich zum Einen darin, dass sie auch nicht in der Lage sind die Bedürfnisse der Frau wahrzunehmen und dadurch gehen sie über die Frau und ihre Bedürfnisse hinweg. Die andere Seite dieser Medaille sind Männer, die nur die Bedürfnisse der Frau im Blick haben. Die gehen dabei über sich selbst hinweg und sind ebenfalls kein echtes gegenüber und erleben sich selbst als schwach. Beide Erscheinungsformen sind äusserst hinderlich für eine erfüllte, gleichberechtigte Beziehung auf Augenhöhe. Generell haben sich viele Männer innerlich und emotional noch nicht von ihren Eltern gelöst. Dann ist es sehr schwer selbstverantwortlich und wirklich innerlich unabhängig auf eigenen Beinen zu stehen. Das ist allerdings die Bedingung für eine erfüllte, reife und verbindliche Beziehung. Letztlich lassen sich alle Beziehungsprobleme auf diesen wesentlichen und grundsätzlichen Umstand zurückführen. Denn die Problematik der nicht vollzogenen Ablösung von den Eltern gilt für viele Frauen genauso. Dazu eine kleine Metapher: Treffen sich zwei Nichtschwimmer auf hoher See. Ruft der Eine: „Rette mich!“ Antwortet die Andere: “Nein, rette Du mich!“ So klammern sich beide aneinander und ertrinken. Fazit: Um eine erfüllte Beziehung führen zu können sollte ich zuerst schwimmen gelernt haben.   Interview Gast Info:     Buchempfehlung: Das Gift an Amors Pfeil Wie Phönix aus der Asche - Kraftrituale für Männer  Kontaktdaten von Stefan Wolff: www.adventure-in-yourself.de https://www.facebook.com/stefan.wolff.73932   Auf ITunes freue ich mich natürlich über eine ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Sterne Bewertung. und ich danke Dir herzlich
