Akademie der Katastrophenforschungsstelle (AKFS) gGmbH c/o Katastrophenforschungsstelle Carl‐Heinrich‐Becker‐Weg 6‐10 12165 Berlin Academy of the Disaster Research Unit | AKFS Report | Nr. 10 | 2021 I Abstract In the year of 2020 and beyond, the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic both challenged and at times even overwhelmed health protection systems around the world. Choices by governments for containment and control strategies of the pandemic shaped political discourse and practices, public debates, as well as peoples’ daily lives. This report investigates the twofold manner in which societies and political systems address emergency situations, taking Armenia and Germany as two comparative examples. First, it presents the state of the art of research on democracy and disaster as well as pandemic management. This chapter closes with characteristics of democratic disaster management based on the literature review.

    2009-2010 Annual Report

    Themenbereich, Kapitel 1 One of the highlights, if not the highlight, of the “Year of Energy” is the exhibition “Dis- coveries 2010: Energy,” which is on display on Mainau Island on Lake Constance from May 20 to August 29, 2010. Known as the “Flower Island,” Mainau is not only popular with tourists and a favorite spot for day trips, but is also known as a historic site for the environmental movement. In 1961 Count Lennart Bernadotte, the owner of the island, formulated the “Mainau Green Charter” as a public manifesto for nature protection and environmental resource management, anticipating what has later been termed sustai- nability. Since then, Mainau has been developed by the Bernadotte family as a kind of ecological paradise, showcasing the beauty of nature. In 2009, the Bernadotte family, in collaboration with “The Nobel Laureate Meetings at Lindau,” was able to present a small exhibition on the overarching theme of water. This exhibition was primarily financed by the Federal Ministry of The Center aims to foster local, national, and international dialogue and analysis of the interaction between human agents and nature; it aims to in- crease the visibility of the humanities in the current discussions about the environment; and it will help establish environmental studies as a distinct field of research and provide it with an institutional home. While the Center’s home is in Munich, Germany, one of Theits main Rachel goals is the internationalization Carson of environmental Center studies. It brings together international academics working on the complex relationship of nature and culture ac- forross variousEnvironment disciplines.

Photos: Getty Images Editor: Mark Butler Produced by the IAAF Media & Public Relations Department 2 DAEGU 2011 ★ PRESIDENTʼS MESSAGE IAAF PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE MESSAGE DU PRESIDENT DE L’IAAF The last time the IAAF staged a World Championship in Korea was the occasion of the 1992 World Junior Championships in Seoul. We did not know it at the time, but the entry list was laden with superstars of the future, including Hicham El Guerrouj, Haile Gebrselassie, Koji Murofushi, Debbie Ferguson, Cathy Freeman and Paula Radcliffe. It is quite possible that some of these names might return to the Korean peninsula in 2011, but for sure we will see many more athletes of their calibre bidding for world medals. Now we are at the 13th edition of our World Championships. With each staging, a book such as this becomes more important. There are ever more results and associated statistics to cram into a book which must be handy for those to carry to and from Daegu Stadium for each day of action. It is sad that the 12 books which preceded this are not much use now, because even some of the things we would not have expected to change have had to be revised due to dop- ing revelations and fluctuation in the way certain names are spelt.
