Who Brings Which Peace?
No full textThis study examines the effect of biased versus neutral mediation on the content of peace agreements. The author argues that neutral mediators, who are engaged primarily because of their interest to end the war, will have incentives to hasten the reaching of an agreement to the expense of its quality. By contrast, biased mediators, seeking to protect their protégés, will take care to ensure that there are stipulations in an agreement guaranteeing the interest of their side or use their particular access and leverage to make their side agree to costly concessions. Biased mediation processes are therefore more likely than neutral mediation processes to lead to elaborated institutional arrangements that are generally considered conducive to democracy and durable peace, such as power sharing, third-party security guarantees, and justice provisions. Empirical analysis, covering the 1989-2004 period and building on data from 124 peace agreements, supports these claims.</p
Messages of the prophets

Considering how this brochure can contribute to strengthening awareness of the religious and national ideals of our community, its reading is most warmly recommended to our citizens." These are words about the book and its author, spoken by the Chief Rabbi of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, Dr Isak Alkalaj

"You Cannot Keep Me": The Shakespearean Artist in Three of Isak Dinesen's Tales
No full textIsak Dinesen’s tale “Tempests” and her collection Winter’s Tales pluralize the titles of The
Tempest and The Winter’s Tale, respectively, but few critics have discussed the author’s
engagement with Shakespeare at length. Both of Dinesen’s source texts thematize the
relationship between art and life, and, in this paper, I consider how “Tempests,” “The Young Man
with the Carnation,” and “A Consolatory Tale” adapt Shakespeare’s dramatic presentation of this
topic into narrative form. “Tempests,” I argue, reintroduces the tension between artistic
production and personal relationships which artists perceive in The Tempest, yet Dinesen adds
her own insight that reflection on this tension can generate new art. I then track hints of both this
tension and Dinesen’s insight in her earlier tales “The Young Man with the Carnation” and “A
Consolatory Tale.” These tales add nuance to her presentation of art and life in “Tempests,” I
note, by depicting the unification of artistic production and personal relationships in a more
compelling way. Along the same lines, and drawing upon Shakespeare’s Winter’s Tale, these
works indicate that art has value because it can reflect its audience’s sense of their current
situation, transform familiar stories, and surprise us in a quasi-supernatural way. I conclude by
suggesting that “A Consolatory Tale” takes these points even further by presenting a related
source of art’s value that Shakespeare’s play does not make explicit: art’s ability to create
sympathy between author and reader

120 in the valuation of mineral reserves and its impact on the financial statements of PT Indo
Tambangraya Megah Tbk, a coal mining company in Indonesia since 1987. The company has
management permits for several mining areas that are divided into various stages:
development, production, and closure. The analysis was conducted on the financial

Someone Else’s Risk: Meta-analytical Evidence of a Self-Other Discrepancy in Climate Change-related Risk Perceptions
No full textDisrupting Eating Spaces in Isak Dinesen’s 'Babette’s Feast'
No full textUp until recently, the bilingual tales of Danish author Isak Dinesen have been critically appreciated and discussed mostly in relation to their narrative complexity and dramatic theatricality. Focusing on her well-known story “Babette’s Feast”, this essay draws on Jacques Derrida’s understanding of supplementarity, on feminist insights into embodiment and recent new materialist theories to address, instead, the place of enfleshed materiality in her revisionist articulations of gender and community. It calls attention to how food, as live matter, impacts through the organic process of eating, the subject’s movement in and perception of physical, social and gender spaces, contributing thus to recent scholarly engagement with the significance of corporeality and material agency for her fictions’ sexual and cultural politics. Implicit in her re-assertion of the material, as it is argued, is Dinesen’s sharp critique of the Protestant valorisation of spirit over matter and the masculinist assumptions built into this spatial configuration
