Download or read book The Strongmen written by Hans Kribbe and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven decades after the liberation of Europe, the strongmen of global politics are back, dominating not only the headlines but international relations, the global economy, and the world's security. The strongman has a style and strategy of leadership that is anathema to the liberal democratic norms and practices of Europe. He (it is always he) challenges principles of consensus and collaboration, willingly tears up trade agreements, invades territory, and seeks to provoke and disrupt the status quo in order to achieve advantage. Such behaviour confounds and frustrates his counterparts abroad and yet, as this book shows, it can be anticipated, even understood, offering hope for dealing with and neutralizing it. Hans Kribbe draws on a range of political ideas to provide insight into the strongman's seemingly irrational and idiosyncratic behaviour and to better understand how he wields power and to what end. With the world's largest economies, including Europe's key ally, as well as strategic neighbouring states controlled by strongmen - Xi Jinping, Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Recep Tayyip Erdogan - Europe must learn to adapt and respond if it is to beat them at their own game.

Book excerpt: Living among other people, in their families and communities, children become aware from a very early age of questions related to justice, and they search for the meaning of the world. By fostering an understanding of human rights, shaping opinion and developing attitudes, human rights education strongly supports this natural interest and learning process. This is what human rights education is about and this is what ’Compasito manual on human rights education for children' is for.’Compasito' is a starting point for educators, teachers and trainers who are ready to deal with human rights education with children of 7-13 years. The book covers the key concepts of human rights and children's rights, and provides substantial theoretical background to 13 key human rights issues, such as democracy, citizenship, gender equality, environment, media, poverty, and violence.The 42 practical activities serve to engage and motivate children to recognise human rights issues in their own environment. They help children to develop critical thinking, responsibility and a sense of justice, and help them learn how to take action to contribute to the betterment of their school or community. The manual also gives practical tips on how it can be used in various formal and non-formal educational settings.
Book Synopsis Les élections européennes 40 ans après – The European Elections, 40 years later by : Tony Marguery
Download or read book Les élections européennes 40 ans après – The European Elections, 40 years later written by Tony Marguery and published by Bruylant. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 2019, 40 ans après la première élection des membres du Parlement européen au suffrage universel direct en 1979, les citoyens de l’Union étaient une neuvième fois appelés aux urnes. Entre ces deux dates, le Parlement européen a profondément changé, passant d’une simple assemblée consultative au colégislateur de droit commun d’une Union européenne en proie à de nombreuses crises. Les contributions au présent ouvrage, tirées des travaux d’un colloque international qui s’est tenu à l’Université de Bordeaux les 9 et 10 mai 2019, entendent dresser le bilan, les enjeux et les perspectives, tant des élections européennes de 2019 que de la démocratie représentative européenne de façon globale. In 2019, 40 years after the first election of members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage in 1979, the citizens of the Union were called to the polls for the ninth time. Between these two dates, the European Parliament changed dramatically, from a mere consultative assembly to the ordinary co-legislator of a European Union plagued by many crises. This book draws on an international conference held at the University of Bordeaux on May 9 and 10, 2019. The various contributions therein intend to take stock, examine the challenges and envisage the prospects, not only of the 2019 European elections but also of representative European democracy in general.
Book Synopsis The Foundations of Europe by : Thomas Hörber
Download or read book The Foundations of Europe written by Thomas Hörber and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hörber analyses the building process of European integration. He shows the parliamentary discourses of France, Germany and Britain to be representative of the national position of these states towards the developing concept of 'Europe'. He covers all key events and developments of the time which had an impact on the European integration process and provides an explanation for the convergence of national discourses towards a common Europe. This development was by no means a given and the analysis of parliamentary debates shows for the first time how vigorous the debates were on European integration in the 1950s, and how, despite setbacks (notably the failure of the European Defence Community), the discussion went in favour of integration.
Book Synopsis L'Europe de la démocratie et des droits de l'homme by : Jean Petaux
Download or read book L'Europe de la démocratie et des droits de l'homme written by Jean Petaux and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 800 million Europeans can individually obtain a ruling from a European court against their State if it has violated their human rights. There is an assembly in Strasbourg where members of the Icelandic, Russian, Portuguese, German, Georgian and other European parliaments all sit together. A Congress exists whose sessions are attended by representatives of 200 000 local and regional authorities of Europe. All these statements relate to the Council of Europe, the first of the European institutions to be founded. Now 47 member states strong, the Council - which is to celebrate its 60th anniversary this year - has become one of the main institutions of intergovernmental co-operation. This book looks at the political role of the Council of Europe, which is now not only a forum for democracy and a gage of stability, the home of human rights and the forum of cultural diversity, but also the crucible of Europe and the future for politics. The author examines all that is specific to the Council of Europe within the European architecture, particularly vis-á-vis the European Union. This book is essential reading for anyone wishing to study the Strasbourg-based Council of Europe, understand how it operates and find out about the contribution that it makes.

Book Synopsis Towards a Federal Europe by : Alexander H. Trechsel
Download or read book Towards a Federal Europe written by Alexander H. Trechsel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excellent new analysis of federalism and the EU that investigates their mutual impact. It shows how scholars of comparative politics increasingly include the EU among their cases when investigating the impact of federalism on key issues such as policy making. The last decade saw a new wave of scholarly publications hit the shores as research on federalism and on the EU came together. These emerging strands of research genuinely enrich our understanding of the EU and its politics. Despite this recent wave, the topic of federalism and the EU is still extremely fruitful. This volume contributes to the continuing debate at a moment in time when the EU is undergoing profound changes. It is structured around four interrelated dimensions: the constitutional/theoretical dimension the institutional vision the party/citizens dimension the policy dimension. This structure allows the reader to consecutively "funnel down" from the more theoretical and abstract levels to the more concrete policy oriented level.

Book Synopsis Council of Europe Law by : Florence Benoît-Rohmer
Download or read book Council of Europe Law written by Florence Benoît-Rohmer and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its foundation, the Council of Europe has established a common legal system for European states, based on democracy, the rule of law and human rights. Its standard-setting texts have helped its members meet the challenges of changing societies and now apply all over Europe given the organisation¿s unprecedented geographical enlargement since 1989. In this connection, the Council of Europe has played a key role in the accession of the new member states to the European Union. The first section of the book deals with the "constitutional" law of the Council of Europe, or its internal statutes in the broad sense. It covers the 1949 Statute, which, along with related texts, lays down the Council¿s aims and determines its membership and operating methods. The second section concerns the role played by the Council of Europe - which has always been very active in standard-setting - in the harmonisation of European states¿ domestic law. The third section situates Council of Europe law in the European context. For instance, it studies the extent to which Council of Europe conventions have been incorporated in domestic law and how Council of Europe law and European Union law co-exist.

Book Synopsis Situation de la démocratie, des droits de l'homme et de l'Etat de droit en Europe by : Conseil de l'Europe
Download or read book Situation de la démocratie, des droits de l'homme et de l'Etat de droit en Europe written by Conseil de l'Europe and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La sécurité démocratique est une idée ancienne, qui part du principe que les démocraties ne s’engagent que rarement, sinon jamais, dans des guerres les unes contre les autres. De même, les pratiques démocratiques protègent les États contre les querelles internes. La sécurité démocratique est une responsabilité partagée par toutes les nations. Ce deuxième rapport annuel sur la situation de la démocratie, des droits de l’homme et de l’État de droit en Europe examine la capacité des États membres à garantir et à renforcer la sécurité démocratique à l’intérieur de leurs frontières et, collectivement, sur l’ensemble du continent. Il évalue dans quelle mesure les 47 États membres du Conseil de l’Europe sont aptes à donner réalité aux cinq piliers de la sécurité démocratique : un système judiciaire efficace et indépendant, la liberté d’expression, la liberté de réunion et d’association, le fonctionnement des institutions démocratiques et, enfin, une société inclusive et une citoyenneté démocratique. Le rapport s’appuie sur la capacité du Conseil de l’Europe à suivre et à évaluer les résultats obtenus en matière de démocratie, de droits de l’homme et d’État de droit, à proposer des solutions pour remédier aux insuffisances et à aider à leur mise en oeuvre.

This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La démocratie est en détresse! La Secrétaire Générale du Conseil de l’Europe, Marija Pejčinović Burić, souligne «un recul clair et inquiétant de la démocratie» dans son rapport annuel sur la situation de la démocratie, des droits de l’homme et de l’État de droit dans les 47 États membres de l’Organisation. «Dans de nombreux cas, les problèmes que nous constatons sont antérieurs à la pandémie de coronavirus, mais il ne fait aucun doute que les mesures légitimes prises par les autorités nationales pour faire face à la covid-19 ont aggravé la situation. Le danger est que notre culture démocratique ne s’en remette jamais complètement», a déclaré la Secrétaire Générale. «Nos États membres doivent maintenant faire un choix. Ils peuvent continuer de permettre ou de faciliter le recul démocratique, ou ils peuvent œuvrer de concert à inverser cette tendance pour renforcer et renouveler la démocratie européenne, et créer les conditions dans lesquelles les droits de l’homme et l’État de droit puissent s’épanouir. «C’est le juste choix pour les 830 millions de personnes qui vivent dans l’espace du Conseil de l’Europe. Sur la base des conclusions de différents organes du Conseil de l’Europe, dont la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme, le rapport de la Secrétaire Générale examine l’évolution de la situation dans des domaines tels que les institutions politiques et l’indépendance de la justice, la liberté d’expression et d’association, la dignité humaine, la lutte contre la discrimination et la participation démocratique. Le rapport encourage les États membres à tirer parti des mécanismes existants et futurs du Conseil de l’Europe pour relever de nombreux défis mis en évidence, sur la base des principes clés suivants : - les autorités nationales devraient revenir aux principes démocratiques fondamentaux et réaffirmer leur adhésion aux normes juridiques du Conseil de l’Europe, y compris l’exécution des arrêts de la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme ; - les États membres devraient adhérer pleinement au multilatéralisme incarné par le Conseil de l’Europe depuis plus de 70 ans ; - les restrictions et mesures imposées en raison de la covid doivent être non seulement nécessaires et proportionnées, mais aussi limitées dans le temps ; -les autorités nationales devraient se rallier à la culture démocratique et reconnaître les cas dans lesquels leurs déclarations, leurs actes ou leurs lois ont porté atteinte à cette culture en réduisant l’espace civique, en dissuadant ou en empêchant des individus, des associations et des ONG d’exercer leur liberté d’expression ou de réunion, ou en excluant des personnes d’une participation pleine et entière à la société.

Book excerpt: Les droits de l’homme, la démocratie et l’Etat de droit dépendent des institutions qui leur donnent corps. Mais les populistes, qui invoquent la « volonté du peuple », voient souvent ces contre-pouvoirs institutionnels comme un obstacle à contourner. Voici le cinquième rapport annuel du Secrétaire Général du Conseil de l’Europe sur la situation de la démocratie, des droits de l’homme et de l’État de droit en Europe. Comme dans les précédentes éditions de ce document, les cinq chapitres sont consacrés à l’un des grands éléments constitutifs de la sécurité démocratique, à savoir des systèmes judiciaires efficaces, impartiaux et indépendants ; la liberté d’expression ; la liberté de réunion et la liberté d’association ; des institutions démocratiques et des sociétés inclusives.

Book excerpt: After the loss of his wife in a bizarre car accident from which her body was never recovered, Trayton Bennett has created a diminutive version of the world in which he used to exist. The inability to cope with his loss coupled with a pervasive reluctance to believe that his wife is truly dead, has led him to push away what's left that remains important to him. Four years after the tragedy, Trayton's life is again turned upside down when he uncovers evidence which suggests that his wife's accident was staged and her disappearance the result of foul play. Oblivious to the attempts that will be made to stop him, and underestimating the abhorrent nature of the secrets that he will unveil, his desperate hunt for the truth begins...

Download or read book Country Dark written by Chris Offutt and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A smart, rich country noir” from the acclaimed author Kentucky Straight and The Good Brother (Stewart O’Nan, bestselling author of Henry, Himself). Chris Offutt is an outstanding literary talent, whose work has been called “lean and brilliant” (The New York Times Book Review) and compared by reviewers to Tobias Wolff, Ernest Hemingway, and Raymond Carver. He’s been awarded the Whiting Writers Award for Fiction/Nonfiction and the American Academy of Arts and Letters Fiction Award, among numerous other honors. His first work of fiction in nearly two decades, Country Dark is a taut, compelling novel set in rural Kentucky from the Korean War to 1970. Tucker, a young veteran, returns from war to work for a bootlegger. He falls in love and starts a family, and while the Tuckers don’t have much, they have the love of their home and each other. But when his family is threatened, Tucker is pushed into violence, which changes everything. The story of people living off the land and by their wits in a backwoods Kentucky world of shine-runners and laborers whose social codes are every bit as nuanced as the British aristocracy, Country Dark is a novel that blends the best of Larry Brown and James M. Cain, with a noose tightening evermore around a man who just wants to protect those he loves. It reintroduces the vital and absolutely distinct voice of Chris Offutt, a voice we’ve been missing for years. “[A] fine homage to a pocket of the country that’s as beautiful as it is prone to tragedy.”—The Wall Street Journal “A pleasure all around.”—Daniel Woodrell, author of Winter’s Bone
