The UN-EU partnership in military crisis management For the EU "effective multilateralism" in, with and within international organisations is the foundation of a system of global governance, so is laid down in the ESS. Therefore the term is used to label the EU's activities in the UN-family and to characterise the relations with the UN in the wider context of global governance. It is the political argument for the EU's commitment in military crisis management, side by side with UN peacekeepers. The UN in turn speaks of multilateralism to call for the EU's loyalty and partnership. Both organisations build their partnership on the common normative ground of multilateralism. The paper questions these rhetorical denominations critically. It goes beyond the political declarations to analyse the degree and quality of "effective multilateralism" in reality in and with international organisations, using the example of UN-EU-relations in military crisis management. The theoretical approach of multilateralism serves as the starting point of the analysis and theoretical basis of the paper (Chapter 1). The special EU-touch in "effective multilateralism" in comparison to the "UN-touch" is subject of Chapter 2. This analysis is necessary due to the meanwhile inflationary use of the term "effective multilateralism" in almost every CSFP context. Are the institutional steps to a partnership in crisis management as well as the operational collaboration in DR Congo (2003/2006/2009) and Chad/CAR (2008/2009) in line with "multilateralism"? is the question that is answered in the paper (Chapter 3). 2011 urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-65565 Institut für Politikwissenschaft und Soziologie OPUS4-10167 Konferenzveröffentlichung Förstner, Konrad; Hagedorn, Gregor; Koltzenburg, Claudia; Kubke, Fabiana; Mietchen, Daniel Collaborative platforms for streamlining workflows in Open Science Despite the internet's dynamic and collaborative nature, scientists continue to produce grant proposals, lab notebooks, data files, conclusions etc. that stay in static formats or are not published online and therefore not always easily accessible to the interested public. Because of limited adoption of tools that seamlessly integrate all aspects of a research project (conception, data generation, data evaluation, peerreviewing and publishing of conclusions), much effort is later spent on reproducing or reformatting individual entities before they can be repurposed independently or as parts of articles. We propose that workflows - performed both individually and collaboratively - could potentially become more efficient if all steps of the research cycle were coherently represented online and the underlying data were formatted, annotated and licensed for reuse. Such a system would accelerate the process of taking projects from conception to publication stages and allow for continuous updating of the data sets and their interpretation as well as their integration into other independent projects. A major advantage of such work ows is the increased transparency, both with respect to the scientific process as to the contribution of each participant. The latter point is important from a perspective of motivation, as it enables the allocation of reputation, which creates incentives for scientists to contribute to projects. Such work ow platforms offering possibilities to fine-tune the accessibility of their content could gradually pave the path from the current static mode of research presentation into a more coherent practice of open science. 2011 Proceedings of the 6th Open Knowledge Conference urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-101678 Institut für Molekulare Infektionsbiologie
