Anhang 2 Die Darstellung von Pegida in Die Zeit Eva Baijens 2. Einleitung Deutschland ist in Aufregung. Wer die Zeitungen liest, kann es sicher nicht verpasst haben: in Dresden wird seit Oktober 2014 wöchentlich gegen den Islam und die Islamisierung Deutschlands und Europa demonstriert. Diese Protestbewegung nennt sich “Patriotische Europäer gegen die Islamisierung des Abendlandes”, kurz Pegida. Vor einem Jahr war alles noch ruhig in Dresden. Die Teilnehmerzahl der Demonstrationen wuchs aber schnell. Anfangs war die Teilnehmeranzahl noch relativ gering. Am 3. November lag sie auf ca. 1000. Am 8. Dezember lag sie schon auf 10.000, am 12. Januar sogar auf 25.000.1 Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich damit, wie die deutsche Zeitung Die Zeit in dem Zeitraum von Dezember 2014 bis Ende April 2015 über Pegida geschrieben hat. Die Zeit ist eine deutsche Wochenzeitung, die sich selbst als liberal bezeichnet. -
Report on the Importance of the Local Level As a Venue and Political Base for the CEAS
Report on the importance of the local level as a venue and political base for the CEAS Vincenzo Gomes, Jeroen Doomernik and Djoeke Ardon Chemnitz, August 2019 CEASEVAL RESEARCH ON THE COMMON EUROPEAN ASYLUM SYSTEM; Nr. 39 CEASEVAL Research on the Common European Asylum System publishes results of empirical research conducted for the H2020 Project “CEASEVAL” (Evaluation of the Common European Asylum System). This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 770037. Herausgeberschaft: Prof. Birgit Glorius and Dr. Melanie Kintz Technische Universität Chemnitz Institut für Europäische Studien Humangeographie mit Schwerpunkt Europäische Migrationsforschung 09107 Chemnitz http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/phil/europastudien/geographie Alle Rechte vorbehalten, Chemnitz 2019 ISSN: 2627-339X Vincenzo Gomes, Jeroen Doomernik and Djoeke Ardon University of Amsterdam (UvA), Amsterdam [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Report on the importance of the local level as a venue and political base for the CEAS Abstract This report provides a comparative overview of the analysis of research results established in work packages 1 to 7 of the CEASEVAL project and formulates, which and how, alternative forms of asylum policies ensue. After presenting the theoretical basis for this report, which builds on an earlier project’s publication (Doomernik & Ardon 2018) and is enriched by the empirical findings of the CEASEVAL research that connects the relevance of a local perspective with an analysis and review of alternative forms of shaping the Common European Asylum System. To transform the CEAS into a sustainable and equitable common asylum and migration framework this report points towards three possible fundamental changes that might make the CEAS more sustainable and foster equity. -
Ostracized in the West, Elected in the East – the Successors of the SED
Volume 10. One Germany in Europe, 1989 – 2009 The Red Socks (June 24, 1994) The unexpected success of the successor party to the SED, the Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS), at the ballot box in East Germany put the established (Western) parties in a difficult situation: what response was called for, ostracism or integration? The essay analyzes the reasons behind the success of the PDS in the East and the changing party membership. The Party that Lights a Fire Ostracized in the West, voted for in the East – the successors to the SED are drawing surprising support. Discontent over reunification, GDR nostalgia, or a yearning for socialism – what makes the PDS attractive? Last Friday, around 12:30 pm, a familiar ritual began in the Bundestag. When representative Uwe-Jens Heuer of the PDS stepped to the lectern, the parliamentary group of the Union [CDU/CSU] transformed itself into a raging crowd. While Heuer spoke of his party’s SED past, heckling cries rained down on him: “nonsense,” “outrageous.” The PDS makes their competitors’ blood boil, more so than ever. Saxony-Anhalt votes for a new Landtag [state parliament] on Sunday, and the successor to the SED could get twenty percent of the vote. It did similarly well in the European elections in several East German states. In municipal elections, the PDS has often emerged as the strongest faction, for example, in Halle, Schwerin, Rostock, Neubrandenburg, and Hoyerswerda. A specter is haunting East Germany. Is socialism celebrating a comeback, this time in democratic guise? All of the Bonn party headquarters are in a tizzy. -
Closer Cooperation Between the Afd and the 'Pegida' Movement Could
Closer cooperation between the AfD and the ‘Pegida’ movement could reshape the German right blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2015/01/05/closer-cooperation-between-the-afd-and-the-pegida-movement-could-reshape-the-german-right/ 05/01/2015 A number of rallies calling for greater restrictions on immigration have been held in Germany by the ‘Pegida’ movement (Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the West). Julian M Hoerner writes on the link between the movement and the anti-euro Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, led by Bernd Lucke. He argues that with the AfD appearing to be broadly supportive of Pegida, an alliance between the two groups could reshape the right of the German party system. In post-War Germany, it was once taken for granted that there could be no party to the right of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) which respected the German constitution, the Grundgesetz. This perceived wisdom has recently been called into question with the electoral success of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD). The party has the appearance of being populist and anti-euro, but is led by respectable figures from the conservative German establishment, many of them academics. However, the recent rapprochement of the party to a new anti-Islam, anti-immigration movement called ‘Pegida’ (Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the West) calls the party’s liberal credentials into questions. The AfD and Pegida share the same regional strongholds and their supporters are united by unease with recent changes in German society. The ‘black box’ of the Pegida movement, with its diverse membership, might prove to be a link between the AfD and more radical and extremist elements, especially in Eastern Germany. -

SAINTS AND MADMEN THE LIMITS OF INTEGRITY Konzeption: Amber Carpenter York Susan Neiman Potsdam Rachael Wiseman Durham Internationale Tagung Mittwoch, 4. – Freitag, 6. Juni EINSTEIN FORUM Einstein Forum Am Neuen Markt 7 14467 Potsdam Tel. 0331-27178-0 www.einsteinforum.de [email protected] Speakers and Themes Jeremy Bendik-Keymer Rejecting Integrity, Choosing Humanity Integrity maintains the connotation of being untouched. Two of its prominent images – that of upholding norms or of being idealistic – reinforce that connotation through the concepts of rules and of forms. Incorruptibility is then found in being rigid or absolutely being. I believe there is an undemocratic politics and a stultifying view of moral education in this nest. I would prefer something humane: a trustworthy goodness comfortable in anarchy, disobedience, non-conformity and becoming, stuff of the comedy of life. What happens to what we want out of integrity when we begin with the assumption that the good part of life – and also the moral – involves being in touch with life and with people? Secondly, what happens to the good stuff of life – and the moral – when we avoid being normative or being ideal, that is, when we turn away the very concepts of norms and of ideals? Thirdly, what happens when good people aren’t seen as undeviating or absolute but are seen as in the process of becoming? What is incorruptibility when we reject integrity and prefer humanity? Educated at Yale and at the University of Chicago, Jeremy Bendik-Keymer is Elmer G. Beamer-Hubert H. Schneider Professor in Ethics and Associate Professor of Philosophy at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. -

The Innovation of Transition Regions Within the Regional Policy of the EU
130 POLITOLOGICKÝ ČASOPIS / CZECH JOURNAL OF POLITICAL SCIENCE 2/2014 ARTICLES 131 Creating European Policy from a Regional Perspective – the Innovation of Transition Regions within the Regional Policy of the EU. Evidence from Saxony-Anhalt ROMANA SĂLĂGEANU* Abstract Looking from a regional perspective at the interests of regions and what they can and would do to achieve their goals, this paper analyzes the contribution made by regional politics to European policymaking processes by examining the activities of the German Land Saxony-Anhalt in a discussion of transition regions and transitional aid within European cohesion policy. Timing and the successful use of resources and available channels are elements in Saxony-Anhalt’s strategy for early mobilization and addressing its interests at the supranational level (that of the European Commission and the Committee of the Regions), as well as within intrastate channels (Europamininsterkonferenz, Bundesrat). Keywords: regional mobilization; multilevel governance; cohesion policy; transition regions DOI: 10.5817/PC2014-2-131 1. Introduction The multilevel governance aspect of the functioning of the European Union has been devel- oped with special regard for the European Regional Policy and the role of subnational actors, particularly in implementation processes. Marks describes the multilevel governance of the EU as “a system of continuous negotiation among nested governments at several territorial tiers” (Marks 1993: 392). The implementation of European policies does not necessarily in- clude participation in negotiating the regulations. However, regions may become involved in European policymaking processes by availing themselves of their opportunities for interest representation or lobbying. The activity of regions at the European level has been examined by a number of scholars, with special attention devoted to their activity in representing their interests and their influence on European policies at the European level (Tatham, Rowe). -
