Beschreibung:

Raimo Väyrynen has made a significant contribution to the establishment of peace research and the promotion of research and teaching on  international relations  in Finland and internationally. He was a founder member of the Tampere Peace Research Institute (TAPRI) and the Secretary-General of the International Peace Research Association (IPRA).  Väyrynen has been the professor and dean at the University of Helsinki. For well over a decade he held professorial positions at U.S. universities, including the Regan Directorship of the Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame and visiting positions at Princeton University, Harvard University, and MIT. He has held key leadership positions at the Academy of Finland and the Finnish Institute of International Affairs.  He has made crucial contributions to science and technology policy worldwide.  These activities have included the UnitedNations University, the European Science Foundation, and the European University Institute.
This book provides a broad overview of Professor Raimo Väyrynen's academic work, his role in international research organizations, and his contributions to policy debates. It offers an interesting review of important political issues during the time span of half a century, from disarmament in Europe to the changing relationship between state sovereignty and transnational forces. Väyrynen has dealt with the changing agenda of peace and international relations, security and the arms race, and the world economy. This book provides comprehensive analyses of the regional and systemic structure of international relations, with the emphasis on conflicts and warfare between nations. It argues that while states, even smaller ones, still matter, transnational issues are increasingly important. Taking a historical perspective, the articles suggest that large-scale violence and arms races have been recurrent and cyclical phenomena in international relations. These events reflect the deep-seated inequalities in the political and economic systems which, moreover, vary considerably between regions.  The publication is important reading for any researcher as well as students, policy-makers and the science-oriented public at large.
