"Wo ist Deutschlands Raketenabwehr? Diese Frage rückte nach der völkerrechtswidrigen Annexion der Krim durch Russland 2014 in den Fokus der Presseberichterstattung. Für die Abwehr von ballistischen Raketen ist die Flugabwehrraketentruppe der Luftwaffe zuständig. Im Ost-West-Konflikt schützten rund 18.600 deutsche Soldaten im Rahmen der Integrierten NATO-Luftverteidigung die westliche Allianz vor Luftangriffen durch den Warschauer Pakt. Nach der Wiedervereinigung befand sich der Luftverteidigungsgürtel des Bündnisses nicht nur in einer geografisch wirkungslosen Position, sondern ihm fehlte auch die Daseinsberechtigung. Mit seiner Auflösung ging ein erheblicher Abbau von Personal und Material der Flugabwehrraketenverbände einher. Nach der Neuausrichtung der Bundeswehr 2012 blieb diesem Dienstbereich der Luftwaffe nur noch ein Geschwader mit rund 2.300 Dienstposten. Der alte Feind war weg -- und Deutschland nach 1989/90 umgeben von Freunden und Verbündeten. Warum also sollte die Regierung in eine Fähigkeit investieren, die Deutschland für sich selbst nicht brauchte?"-- Publisher's website
"Does Germany need missile defense? There is no other section of the German Armed Forces that has lost so much personnel and so much firepower since 1989/90 as the Luftwaffe's anti-aircraft missile force, whose tasks currently include defense against ballistic missiles. At the end of the Cold War, Germany was surrounded by friends and allies. Why should the government invest in a capability that it no longer requires?"-- Publisher's website

"Seit Aufstellung der Bundeswehr 1955 verloren über 3300 Soldatinnen und Soldaten ihr Leben im Dienst. Nur eine Minderheit von ihnen fiel in Kampfeinsätzen. Die weitaus Meisten kamen bei Unfällen ums Leben. Das stets wiederholte Versprechen, all diesen Toten ein öffentliches Andenken zu bewahren, verhallte. Erst mit Beginn des Afghanistan-Einsatzes 2002 setzte ein Umdenken ein, das in der Einweihung des Berliner Ehrenmales der Bundeswehr 2009 seinen vorläufigen Höhepunkt fand. Seitdem gedenkt die Bundeswehr offiziell und öffentlich ihrer toten Soldatinnen und Soldaten. Warum verweigerte die Bundeswehr so lange ein öffentlich sichtbares und dauerhaftes Gedenken? Julia Katharina Nordmann beleuchtet die komplexen Ursachen fur dieses Verhalten. Sie rekonstruiert zugleich den langen und muhsamen Prozess, der zur Ausbildung einer Gedenkkultur geführt hat, die heute in vielfältiger Wesise die Toten der Bundeswehr würdigt." -- Back cover

The latest volume in the World Yearbook of Education Series explores the relationship between education and the globally prevalent principle of nationalism. This book identifies the diverse ways in which educational policies, discourses, curricula and pedagogy embed and promote the concept of "the nation" both historically and in the age of globalization. By challenging accounts owed to the discourse of "globalization" which conceal the presence of national epistemologies and interests in education, this book offers important insights into the role of education in making nationalism one of the most enduring and yet easily obscured forces of our time. Organized into four sections, this book looks at the following main issues: Historical (re)production of the nation considers how countries consider and reproduce their national identity and how this is built on their history. Hegemonic aspirations and interventions examines how instruction technologies developed during the Cold War have been propagated and disseminated around the world, how the development of educational policy based on the human capital theory emerged, and analyzes the extent to which tech companies are intent on establishing an imperial order of learning. Imperial policies and resurgences of nationalisms explores how global or imperial policies have been indulged in different parts of the world and how new forms of nationalism have been emerging. Paradoxes, inconsistencies, and a self-reflection focuses on nations acting imperially as sites of domestic injustices, addresses unresolved paradoxes between the global and the national and includes a historically informed critical review of the World Yearbooks of Education. Bringing together the voices of researchers from around the globe, The World Yearbook of Education 2022 is ideal reading for anyone interested in learning how nationalism has affected the expansion of education systems and how its imperial aspirations are currently affecting education policy and practice.

A timely contribution to the debate on educational governance and equality, the World Yearbook of Education 2020 documents the significant changes that have occurred in the last 20 years reflecting a widespread shift from government to governance. Considering school context as well as specific school responses around the emergence of particular forms of governance, this book presents and contextualises a clear historical account of governance and accountability within schooling. Organised into three sections covering: Changing contexts of school governance; stakeholders and 'responsibilisation'; and radical governance, carefully chosen contributors provide global insights from around the world. They consider educational outcomes and closing the inequality gap and they document radical forms of governance, at local level, which have sought to create more equitable governance, intelligent accountability and greater involvement of key stakeholders such as students. Providing a series of provocations and reminders of the possibilities that remain open to us, the World Yearbook of Education 2020 will be of interest to academics, professionals and policymakers in education and school governance, and any scholars who engage in historical studies of education and debates about educational governance and equality.

Digital methodologies, new forms of data visualization and computer-based learning and assessment are creating new challenges as well as opportunities for scholars in educational research. The World Yearbook of Education 2019 explores this highly relevant topic, opening a new discussion about the various conceptual and methodological challenges and opportunities in contemporary educational research. This volume explores contemporary methods of inquiry, with chapters organized around four topics of enduring interest in this field: impacts, patterns, relations and contexts. The World Yearbook of Education 2019 comprises contributions from internationally renowned scholars exploring novel concepts and methodologies in grappling with contemporary empirical phenomena in educational research. Vital questions such as how we understand the technological developments that are creating new possibilities for and demands on education, and how we make sense of complex cases that cut across multiple nations, are discussed. This newest addition to the prestigious World Yearbook of Education series provides a fascinating read for scholars in the fields of education policy and comparative education. It is not only a useful resource for educational researchers and policy makers examining new trends and emerging issues, but would be of interest to graduate students exploring innovative methodologies, particularly in the study of education and education policy.
