• Sommario/riassunto: Liberal Interventionism and Democracy Promotion, edited by Dursun Peksen, explores the extent to which various forms of foreign interventions and policy actors contribute to the spread of democracy. The contributors to this collection specifically evaluate the efficacy of four major tools-economic sanctions, foreign aid, external armed influences, and soft power-that are often used to advance political liberalization in authoritarian regimes. The book also assesses the performance of four major non-state actors-the International Monet

• Sommario/riassunto: Ein wertvolles historisches Zeugnis und literarisches Werk von Rang stellt diese Schrift des Eustathios von Thessalonike (ca. 1115–1195) dar, in der der Erzbischof und berühmte Gelehrte drastisch und detailreich mit seinen Mönchen ins Gericht geht; in seinen Augen bleiben sie weit hinter dem Ideal zurück, das sie bei ihrer Mönchsweihe gelobten, besonders durch Geschäftemacherei und Bildungsfeindlichkeit. Mit Prolegomena, Edition und Indices erschließt der Band der byzantinistischen Fachwelt das 1832 auf unzureichender handschriftlicher Grundlage edierte Werk neu, auch den Quellenwert für die Liturgiegeschichte. Doch sollte ein Werk von diesem Rang und Reiz nicht den Spezialisten vorbehalten sein; der Band stellt deshalb dem griechischen Text eine deutsche Übersetzung gegenüber. Als ; Ergänzung zu dieser Edition erscheint in der Reihe "Supplementa Byzantina" eine kommentierende Monographie. Beide Bände sind auch zu einem gemeinsamen Setpreis erhältlich.; In a detailed account, the archbishop and renowned scholar Eustathius of Thessalonica (probably 1115–1195) takes his monks severely to task, for in his eyes they fall far short of the ideals they professed in their monastic vows, particularly by engaging in business and being hostile to education and learning. With its Prolegomena, editorial work, and indexes, this new edition is a valuable source for Byzantinists. The volume also provides a German translation of the Greek text. In addition to this text, a commentary is published within the series "Supplementa Byzantina." Both volumes are available as a set .
