"The paper critically addresses some of the existing theoretical gaps within constructivist norm research and proposes an analytical framework for capturing and analysing non-linear variation in states’ normative positioning. The study then examines the various stances Russia has been selectively adopting in the process of its internalisation, contestation and revision of the international election observation norm throughout 2000-2012. The analysis reveals that until recently Russia had been primarily adopting a ‘reformist’ rather than ‘revolutionary’ stance, - only episodically questioning the norm’s legitimacy and avoiding open violations -, and stresses the importance of non-material constraints on normative revisionism."

"Dieses Arbeitspapier befasst sich zunächst mit theoretischen Lücken innerhalb der konstruktivistischen Normenforschung und entwirft einen analytischen Rahmen für die Erfassung und Untersuchung nicht-linearer Varianz in der normativen Positionierung von Staaten. Mithilfe dieses konzeptionellen Rahmens untersucht die Studie Russlands Positionierungen in dem Prozess der Internalisierung, Kontestation und Revision der internationalen Wahlbeobachtungsnorm in dem Zeitraum von 2000 bis 2012. Die Analyse zeigt, dass Russland bis in die jüngste Zeit eher 'reformistische' als 'revolutionäre' Positionen einnahm, weil es die Legitimität der Norm nur selten und situativ in Frage stellte und offene Normverletzungen vermied. Weiterhin unterstreicht sie den einhegenden Effekt nicht-materieller Faktoren auf normativen Revisionismus." (Autorenreferat)... view less
