To be included, the articles had to be published in a major peer-reviewed political science journal between 1980 and 2011 and listed in the Web of Science, Social Science Citation Index and/or Google Scholar. For each article, we indicate its level of analysis (cross-national or subnational) and the type of conflict analyzed (interstate war, civil war and insurgency, terrorism, revolutions and protests). The list excludes disaggregated studies of conflict, which do not directly address the question of how violence spreads (e.g. Kalyvas 2006, Lyall 2009). Of the 90 articles, 77 are on the cross-national level and only indirectly address the dynamics of state responses to insurgency. -
Universitas Indonesia BAB II Konsep Etnonasionalisme Dan Terorisme II
BAB II Konsep Etnonasionalisme dan Terorisme II.1 Etnonasonalisme Nasionalisme di dunia, khususnya pada abad ke-20, merupakan suatu fenomena yang sangat kompleks dan merupakan gejala zaman modern. Hal ini dikarenakan banyaknya konotasi serta interpretasinya yang beragam sebagai hasil studi. Nasionalisme di setiap negara tidaklah sama, dikarenakan nasionalisme suatu negara berkembang menurut ide politik dan susunan masyarakat yang sesuai dengan apa yang telah berakar di negara tersebut. Oleh karena itu, perkembangan nasionalisme adalah sebuah proses sejarah yang dapat dilihat. Nasionalisme memegang peranan penting dalam sejarah dunia. Saat ini konsep negara-bangsa menjadi bentuk dominan organisasi pemerintahan, sehingga membuat para sejarawan menggunakan istilah nasionalisme untuk merujuk transisi sejarah dan munculnya serta keunggulan dari ideologi nasionalis. Istilah nasionalisme sendiri merujuk pada sebuah aksi kolektif yang dirancang untuk membuat batasan sebuah bangsa menjadi satu ruang (kongruen) dengan sebuah unit pemerintahan.30 Konsep nasionalisme sendiri terbentuk dari dua unsur, yakni bangsa dan unit pemerintahan31 (untuk lebih mudahnya, disebut negara). Beberapa teori nasionalisme menunjukkan identitas nasional menciptakan pergerakan nasional yang kemudian direspon oleh para unit politis, atau unit sosial itu sendiri yang mempromosikan sendiri identitas nasional mereka melalui kesadaran nasional tersebut. Menurut Gellner, sebuah bangsa tidak akan memunculkan nasionalisme tetapi nasionalisme-lah yang mengakibatkan lahirnya sebuah -

C Structure of Soviet National Daring As Well As Our Caution
Victor KOGAN-IASNYT c ~~ "I :~r·. 1,! ~! ' ,S - --_; s CHECHEN R 0 s s Essays Articles Documents Moscow THE RIGHT TO LIFE AND HUMAN DIGNITY 1995 I f IN LIEU OF A FOREWORD The essays and articles we venture to publish here were written on the heels of events at different times since the outbreak oflarge-scale military operations in Chechnya. Much of what you see is in the nature of a sketch and requires additional material of a factual nature which we plan to provide in subsequent issues. Much of this may appear excessively emotional or declarative. We are fully aware that this publication in a way presumptuous and somewhat clumsy.· But we hope that our readers will understand our gesture. modest as it may be. We did not seek a place in the relevant events, and did not want involvement, but, to be sure, neither did we evade it. We stayed away from danger, we often fell behind, and were often wrong. But we were never indifferent. *** During my latest visit to Chechnya I was treated to tea by very calm and reasonable people from among those who had in the short period of hostilities lost absolutely everything, their families and homes, They were not aggressive. They were not embittered. They were not even suspicious, though they did take all the requisite security measures. To put it simply, they were ready fbr anything. In any case, they were not sony for themselves. And since they were not sorry for themselves, they were not sorry for anyone else either. -

The Trade Routes and the Silk Trade Along the Western Coast of the Caspian Sea from the 15Th to the First Half of the 17Th Century
ACTA VIA SERICA Vol. 3, No. 2, December 2018: 23–48 doi:10.22679/avs.2018.3.2.002 The Trade Routes and the Silk Trade along the Western Coast of the Caspian Sea from the 15th to the First Half of the 17th Century SHAHIN MUSTAFAYEV The Silk Road usually implies a network of trade and communications that stretched from east to west and connected China and the countries of the Far East via Central Asia and the Middle East to the eastern Mediterranean, or through the northern coast of the Caspian Sea and the Volga basin to the Black Sea coast. However, at certain historical stages, a network of maritime and overland routes stretching from north to south, commonly called the Volga-Caspian trade route, also played a significant role in international trade and cultural contacts. The geopolitical realities of the early Middle Ages relating to the relationship of Byzantium, the Sassanid Empire, and the West Turkic Khaganate, the advance of the Arab Caliphate to the north, the spread of Islam in the Volga region, the glories and fall of the Khazar State, and the Scandinavian campaigns in the Caucasus, closely intertwined with the history of transport and communications connecting the north and south through the Volga-Caspian route. In a later era, the interests of the Mongolian Uluses, and then the political and economic aspirations of the Ottoman Empire, the Safavid State, and Russia, collided or combined on these routes. The article discusses trade contacts existing between the north and the south in the 15th and first half of the 17th century along the routes on the western coast of the Caspian Sea.
