Sommario/riassunto

South Sudan is undergoing a process of internationally-supported state building of which decentralisation forms part. For the people, decentralisation is understood as a right to self-rule based on native–stranger dichotomies and as a means of appropriating and incorporating an abstract and distant state into the local context. The South Sudanese government, in contrast, sees decentralisation primarily as a tool for service delivery and development. Conversely, the international community, in its desire to guarantee international stability through the creation of Western-style states all over the world, sees decentralisation as one tool in the state-building toolbox. These different interpretations of decentralization may not only lead to misunderstandings, but different groups and different ways of understanding decentralisation have interacted throughout history, and attempts to impose a particular understanding on other actors continue. Annina Aeberli examines this hybridisation of state ‘decentralisation’ and argues that the international community and the government cannot and should not try to ignore people’s understandings and expectations: a state – in whatever form – always



depends on the acceptance of the people.

Sommario/riassunto

The collective term used by the authors, "stress spectrum disorder",



explains the major causal factors that determine and maintain symptoms of physical and psychological overload. Specific recommendations are given for those who suffer from symptoms or have already been diagnosed with a psychological disorder. Special attention is given to people in the public eye, such as managers or executives. The explanatory, conditional, disorder and maintenance model is based on phylogenetic patterns of people in general as well as individual biography-specific patterns. In addition to the explanation of the disorder models, concrete assistance is provided, be it phylogenetic-human or individual-biographical. The authors Dr. Markus J. Pausch is a specialist in psychosomatic medicine, psychiatry, and psychotherapy, serving as a senior physician at the Trauma Therapy Center of the kbo-Isar-Amper-Klinikum in the Munich region and as a lecturer, among others, in the kbo education network and at the Munich University of Applied Sciences. Sven J. Matten, MBA, has held executive positions in companies in the real estate investment, renewable energy and entertainment industries in the EU and Canada and, together with Dr. Markus J. Pausch, coaches personalities in international management as part of the "phocamento" platform at locations in Munich and Toronto. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence.

A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
