Friendly relations between our countries are rooted in the spiritual and civilizational kinship between our peoples, as well as in our centuries-long shared history, including the heroic struggle during World War ii that led to our common Victory over nazism. Cherishing these precious traditions, moscow and belgrade are genuinely committed to fostering close bilateral cooperation in the political, economic, security, humanitarian and cultural areas, to the benefit of both nations and in the interests of strengthening peace and stability in the balkans and beyond. it is gratifying to note that academic communities in Russia and serbia recognize the significance of their analytical engagement for further comprehensive development of fruitful inter-state collaboration. Welcoming this new publication of the belgrade institute of international politics and economics, i hope that it will not only facilitate a constructive and insightful discussion between the researchers in Russia and serbia, but also kindle lively scholarly interest worldwide and, therefore, pave the way for a deeper exploration of the matters concerned. i would like to extend sincere appreciation to everyone who invested their efforts in the project and wish them every success in their future creative endeavors. ambassador of the Russian Federation to the Republic of serbia alexander botsan-Kharchenko 9 INTRODUCTION Relations between Russia and serbia viewed through the prism of the size of the territory and the economic, political, and military power, do not provide adequate insight into the depth of the connection between the two countries and peoples. Russia, as the largest country in the world, the largest exporter of gas, the second-largest exporter and the third-largest oil producer, historically a great power and nuclear superpower, plays a more significant role in the modern world compared to relatively small serbia. the historical influence that Russia had in the balkans and the allied relationship with serbia left a deep mark on the modern relations between the two countries, but also on Russian foreign policy, in which the “balkan vector” currently represents a significant segment. the processes of developing multipolarity in international relations take place in the economic and political spheres, while in the military field, multipolarity has never ceased to exist. in these processes, Russia has a leading role as a state whose foreign policy matrix includes the strengthening of international law, the abolition of arbitrariness, and the creation of alternative security and economic arrangements at the planetary level. Russia’s power has undoubtedly grown and spilled over beyond the sphere of the former territory of the soviet union, which is best evidenced by the activities in syria. serbia, as a declaratively neutral state and one of the few european countries outside nato, burdened by the problem posed by the self-proclaimed independence of one part of its territory, represents an arena of conflict of different worldviews in modern international relations. the key challenges relate to the relatively frequently asked questions of nato and the european union enlargement, views on Kosovo’s self-proclaimed independence, but also some new ones such as Chinese influence in the balkans, 5G technology, sanctioning Russia for incorporating Crimea, and many others. 11 the above-stated reasons indicate the need for a more profound analysis of Russian-serbian relations, Russia’s influence in the balkans, eurasian integration, and geopolitical tendencies viewed from different angles. primarily from the perspective of a great power that projects its strength on a global level, and then from the perception of serbia, a small european country that has no global pretensions, but its primary goals are the preservation of sovereignty, territorial integrity, and economic prosperity. the collection of papers “Russia and serbia in Contemporary World: bilateral relations, challenges and opportunities”, which was created as yet another indicator in a series of fruitful cooperation between the institute of international politics and economics and the embassy of the Russian Federation in serbia, is an expression of the need for deeper research. it is divided into three chapters in which the authors analyse different parts of the mosaic. the first and most extensive chapter deals with bilateral and multilateral frameworks of cooperation. Russian and serbian foreign ministers, sergei lavrov and ivica dacic open a discussion on one of the most significant regional issues, but also the axis of cooperation in finding a solution to the problem of Kosovo and metohija. miroslav mladenovic and elena ponomareva analyse the balkan vector of Russian foreign policy in the context of serbia. natasa stanojevic discusses the potentials of serbian exports to Russia and the impact on the course of eurasian economic integration. asya pentegova analyses political, economic, and cultural cooperation between belarus and the Western balkans from the angle of relations with serbia. in her work, yulia bulannikova deals with the impact of the problems of Kosovo and metohija on serbian-albanian relations in general. petar stanojevic and Zoran Jeftic address an important topic of cooperation between Russia and serbia in the oil and gas sector. the paper of dragan petrovic, who has been researching the relations between Russia and serbia since the time of the so-called “eastern Question” to this day, is the last in the chapter. the second chapter entitled “images and perceptions”, analyses the nonmaterial elements of the Russian-serbian relations and the strength of intangible factors in the balkans. the chapter begins with the paper of evgeny pashentsev, who researches the Russian information presence in the balkans. in his paper, ivan surma explains the expansion of that presence, while aleksandar mitic analyses the image of Russia in

Signed: June 2013 Statement of Length With a total count of 77.996 words, this dissertation does not exceed the word limit as set by the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages, University of Cambridge. Signed: June 2013 Summary of Arthur Schnitzler and Jakob Wassermann: A Struggle of German- Jewish Identities by Max Matthias Walter Haberich The purpose of this dissertation is to contrast the differing responses to early political anti- Semitism by Arthur Schnitzler and Jakob Wassermann. By drawing on Schnitzler’s primary material, it becomes clear that he identified with certain characters in Der Weg ins Freie and Professor Bernhardi. Having established this, it is possible to trace the development of Schnitzler’s stance on the so-called ‘Jewish Question’: a concept one may term enlightened apolitical individualism. Enlightened for Schnitzler’s rejection of Jewish orthodoxy, apolitical because he always remained strongly averse to politics in general, and individualism because Schnitzler felt there was no general solution to the Jewish problem, only one for every individual. For him, this was mainly an ethical, not a political issue; and he defends his individualist position in Professor Bernhardi.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science A Genealogy of the Balance of Power Morten Skumsrud Andersen A thesis submitted to the Department of International Relations of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, January 2016. Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent.

Statement of use of third party for editorial help I can confirm that my thesis was copy edited for conventions of language, spelling and grammar by Susan Høivik. Abstract The Balance of Power is one of the foundational concepts for the academic discipline of International Relations. Most treat it as a theoretical or analytical concept – a tool that scholars use to investigate the workings of world politics. However, there is a gap in the literature on the balance of power; it is also a concept used by political practitioners and diplomats in concrete debates and disputes throughout centuries.
