Ziel des Beitrages ist es, Normen und Mechanismen des Gerechtigkeits-Systems in Ostasien sowie ihre Interaktionen mit globalen Normen, sprich, Strafgerechtigkeit, Rechtsstaatlichkeit, Menschenrechte, und demokratischen Werte, zu identifizieren und zu beleuchten.

The past two decades have witnessed a gradually changing paradigm in academic and policy debates regarding the questions of the normative basis of world order and possibilities for tackling imminent threats to security and peace (i.e. intra-state armed conflicts, failed states, terrorism, poverty, and deepening inequality). The introduction of concepts such as “human security” and “the right to humanitarian intervention/responsibility to protect (R2P)” as well as critical examinations of peace-, nation-, and state-building missions (PNSB) have led to a relativist tendency of state sovereignty and a changing attitude regarding how to address the intersection of security, development, and human rights. Despite this shift, the policy ...

It aims to make explicit the cumulative effects of overlapping factors (the dominance of material law in the German legal system, national identity, instrumental calculations, traditional attitudes toward migrants, participation of migrant communities, support for European integration, British Elitism, war on terror and etc.) in shaping migration discourses, legislation, policy and practice. It will also show how specific political and economic preferences have dominated these processes and explain why some migrant groups remain disadvantaged.

Still, some reform efforts at the elite and local levels (for example, village committee elections) have begun to challenge the balance of power between the conservatives and proponents of political reform. In particular, in view of many paradoxes, conflicts, inequalities and anxieties resulting from economic growth-promoting policies, moderate Chinese elites have articulated different models of political reform ranging from a system of consultation backed by the rule of law, a power-sharing system, democratic institutional building, to incremental democracy. Is there a Chinese democratic model in the making? This paper uses new institutional and constructivist approaches to analyze the effects of some reform efforts and examines the applicability of different governance models in the Chinese context. It argues that a strategy of incremental institutional tactics may prove to be helpful to address urgent social inequality issues. A strong elite leadership is still highly expected that continues to obstruct the birth and development of a pluralist and power-sharing system.
