More than 60 years ago our two nations marked a milestone of friendship with the inauguration of our joint Fulbright Program, now distinguished as one of the oldest Fulbright partnerships in the world. The late U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright had the far-sighted notion to bridge differences between nations through overseas study and people-to-people interaction; he was passionately committed to the idea that citizens need to better understand the world beyond their own culture and country. This vision led to the establishment of the program that now bears his name and has become a 6 centerpiece of U.S. engagement around the world. By continuing to implement the 7 Fulbright Program, the U.S. government helps provide unforgettable, life-changing experiences to hundreds of thousands of students and scholars internationally. HILLARY DIANE RODHAM Through the Fulbright Program, we work together to identify, educate, and CLINTON, født 26. oktober i Chicago i support the next generation of leaders in both our countries.

  • Majority and Minority Ethnic Voting in New Democracies
    Identity and Agency: Majority and Minority Ethnic Voting in New Democracies Benjamin P. McClelland Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Benjamin P. McClelland All Rights Reserved Abstract Identity and Agency: Majority and Minority Ethnic Voting in New Democracies Benjamin P. McClelland This dissertation examines how ethnic identities are politicized through elections in new democracies. Using the cases of post-communist Latvia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, I compare the electoral success of campaigns which appeal to voters on the basis of ethnicity to those do not. I argue that ethnic parties are most likely in groups for whom two conditions are met. First, ethnicity must meaningfully differentiate ethnic insiders from outsiders, in such a way that voters will believe policy benefits will likely result from political representation for the group. Second, electoral institutions must ensure that the political mobilization of the group will result in electoral victory. These two conditions create fundamentally different incentives for ethnic majority groups and ethnic minority groups simply because of differences in group size. In most democracies with a large minority population, ethnic voting will be more likely among the majority group than the minority group, unless institutions encourage minority group voting by lowering barriers to entry. The results demonstrate the qualitatively different ways groups use ethnic identities as a resource to achieve political objectives, with important implications for minority group representation, political participation, and democratic governance in diverse societies. Contents 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Why Study Ethnic Voting? .

Acknowledgements When I, as a student, was welcomed by the staff at Institutt for statsvitenskap (Department of political science, ISV) at the University of Oslo in 2003, I remember one the professors, Raino Malnes stressed – borrowing a quote from the famous English biologist Thomas Henry Huxley – that students in political science should ‘try to learn something about everything and everything about something’. Throughout my time as a student, I focused primarily on the first part of the advice. As a PhD student, however, I’ve tried to focus on the latter part by writing an in-depth analysis of the ideological and organizational development of one single party, namely Fremskrittspartiet (The Norwegian Progress Party, FrP). Whether or not I have succeeded is obviously up to the reader to decide. It wasn’t always supposed to be like this. For a long time I didn’t realize that writing (almost) everything about something was impossible without a very limited research question.

Dear Colleagues, I am delighted to be able to welcome you to the 5th ECPR General Conference here at the University of Potsdam on 10-12 September 2009. The University of Potsdam is the largest research institution in a city that prides itself on having the highest density of academic and scientific facilities in Germany. The campus site at Griebnitzsee, where the General Conference 2009 is held, has just been transformed by the addition of a new building, in which most of our events take place. The Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, which acts as our host, focuses on public policy and public management (broadly understood). It offers BA degrees in political science and public administration, sociology and economics as well as a range of postgraduate degrees, including a Master of Public Management, a Master of Global Public Policy, a Master of European Governance and Administration (offered in cooperation with ENA and Sorbonne in Paris and Humboldt-University in Berlin), and an Executive Master of Public Management with the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin. But beyond offering the comforts of a generously refurbished campus, the conference location at Potsdam also serves as a stark reminder of the turbulent history that is the backdrop of modern-day European politics: From the Edict of Potsdam in 1685 throughending religious discrimination and the reign of Frederick the Great whose summer residence Sanssouci became almost synonymous with European enlightenment, through dark moments of Germany’s history like the handshake between President Hindenburg and Chancellor Hitler on the ‘Day of Potsdam” in 1933, until the fall of the Berlin Wall that separated Potsdam from neighbouring (West) Berlin for 40 years, the city of Potsdam - UNESCO world heritage site since 1990 – has been in the centre European history, which you can witness at numerous sites in and around the city.

  • Baltic Social Science Research in Scandinavian Countries and Germany
    Baltic Social Science Research in Scandinavian countries and Germany State of the Art Jesper Manniche Per Åke Nilsson Mette Krogh Olsen Håken R. Nilson Research Centre of Bornholm July 1998 Preface For 50 years the countries around the Baltic Sea were divided in two blocks: The Eastern communist block and the countries belonging to the Western hemisphere. After 1989 this picture changed dramatically. Old connections between the countries in the Baltic Sea Region were renewed and new ties of friendship are being established. Another consequence is the development of research concerning the region. A great number of universities and research institutes in the West have put research about the Baltic Sea Region on the agenda. Obviously many questions needed urgent action, e.g. reducing the pollution of air and water, creating and implementing a new security policy, improving trade relations and assistance to overcome the transition from planned economy to market economy. However, the research activities carried out hitherto have to a large extent been uncoordinated in character - both within the Baltic Sea countries in particular and at an international level. Some issues have been intensely and comprehensively analysed, as for instance the economic and political transition processes from planned to market economy, while other questions are almost untouched. Additionally, and perhaps as a result of this, a full overview of the current research activities concerning the Baltic Sea Region does not seem to exist. The intention of this report is to contribute to the formation of a general view over the ongoing research activities dealing with the Baltic Sea Region - a state-of-the-art.

In order to do this, the foundation of the peace, its principles, will be abstracted from the ad hoc solutions to regional conflicts between Nordic countries. These solutions ultimately transformed a region of conflict or negative peace, to a zone of positive peace. The thesis will answer the following questions: 1) How have the solutions that underlie the Nordic Peace transcended causes for conflict? And 2) are there universal potentials in the Nordic solutions? This will be elucidated through an in depth analysis of three historical cases that would shape and transform the region after 1814, the year marking the onset of the Nordic Peace and its subsequent paradigm shift.

    Oceans Apart: Ideologies of Extraterritorial Foreign Policy in Northern Europe and the USA Hans Olav Stensli Dissertation for the Dr.polit.-degree, University of Bergen, Norway 2006 Oceans Apart: Ideologies of Extraterritorial Foreign Policy in Northern Europe and the USA Hans Olav Stensli Dissertation for the partial fulfilment of the Dr.polit.-degree, Department of comparative politics University of Bergen, Norway February 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express sincere gratitude to my supervisor Professor Frank Aarebrot at the department of comparative politics, University of Bergen. He has been a source of motivation throughout my studies of politics and in fact was a chief reason why I developed an interest in macro theory, in the first place. I am indebted to Pål Bakka and Terje Knutsen for reading a draft of the thesis in its entirety, and for their very valuable comments. Former colleagues at the department of defence studies at the Royal Norwegian Naval Academy were great commentators to drafts of individual chapters. Unfortunately, this department ceased to exist as a consequence of the reorganisation of the armed forces in the years 2004-2006. Especially, I enjoyed the seminars with Michael Prince, Hans J. Wiborg and Jan Tore Nilsen. Michael Prince in particular helped through suggestions to the prose in chapter 1. Bjørn Terjesen and Karl Rommetveit were also great colleagues and generously let me participate at the Norwegian forum for the study of naval history. A number of librarians were very supportive of the effort. In addition to Pål Bakka at the University of Bergen, I remain indebted to Ragnvald Høgh and Thomas Brevik at the Naval Academy, and Hans Christian Bjerg at the Danish Defence Archive.
