    Romanian Political Science Review Vol. XXI, No. 1 2021

    Romanian Political Science Review vol. XXI, no. 1 2021 The end of the Cold War, and the extinction of communism both as an ideology and a practice of government, not only have made possible an unparalleled experiment in building a democratic order in Central and Eastern Europe, but have opened up a most extraordinary intellectual opportunity: to understand, compare and eventually appraise what had previously been neither understandable nor comparable. Studia Politica. Romanian Political Science Review was established in the realization that the problems and concerns of both new and old democracies are beginning to converge. The journal fosters the work of the first generations of Romanian political scientists permeated by a sense of critical engagement with European and American intellectual and political traditions that inspired and explained the modern notions of democracy, pluralism, political liberty, individual freedom, and civil rights. Believing that ideas do matter, the Editors share a common commitment as intellectuals and scholars to try to shed light on the major political problems facing Romania, a country that has recently undergone unprecedented political and social changes. They think of Studia Politica. Romanian Political Science Review as a challenge and a mandate to be involved in scholarly issues of fundamental importance, related not only to the democratization of Romanian polity and politics, to the “great transformation” that is taking place in Central and Eastern Europe, but also to the make-over of the assumptions and prospects of their discipline. They hope to be joined in by those scholars in other countries who feel that the demise of communism calls for a new political science able to reassess the very foundations of democratic ideals and procedures.
  • Spotlight on Parliaments in Europe

    Spotlight on Parliaments in Europe

    Spotlight on Parliaments in Europe Issued by the EP Directorate for Relations with National Parliaments N° 13 - November 2016 Quality of legislation stemming from the EU On 19 September 2016, the Italian Senate submitted a request to the ECPRD network concerning the quality of legislation stemming from the EU. This request was an opportunity for National Parliaments to exchange best practices on how to ensure the quality of legislation with specific regard to transposition, implementation and enforcement of EU law. From the 21 answers provided by National Parliaments it is clear that transposition and implementation of EU Law is highly unlikely to require special attention. While almost all of them are using legislative guidelines and procedures for guaranteeing high standard of general law-making, only a few have felt the need to establish special mechanisms to ensure the quality of legislation stemming from the EU. The use of legislative guidelines and procedures; the main way to ensure the quality of legislation stemming from the EU. The use of legislative guidelines and procedures appears to be the most common way for National Parliaments to ensure the quality of legislation, also the legislation stemming from the EU. It allows for good linguistic coherence in the national languages while enhancing the standardization of the law. For example, in the case of Austria, the Federal Chancellery has published specific “Legistische Richtlinien”. In Spain, the instrument used is the Regulation Guidelines adopted in the Agreement of the Council of Ministers of 22 July 2005. Both Italian Chambers use Joint Guidelines on drafting of national legislation.

  • Serbia and Montenegro

    Serbia and Montenegro

    ATTACKS ON JUSTICE – SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO Highlights Serbia and Montenegro (the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia until February 2003) entered the process of democratic transition, the creation of a system based on the rule of law, much later than other former socialist countries. On 4 February 2003 the new state union of Serbia and Montenegro was proclaimed. Under the Constitutional Charter of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, there is only one instance of Serbia and Montenegro having a common judiciary – the Court of Serbia and Montenegro. Otherwise, each state – the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro – has its own internal courts system. A set of important judicial reforms came into force on 1 March 2002 in the Republic of Serbia and in July 2002 amendments to these laws were made that violate the principle of separation of powers and the independence and impartiality of the judiciary. In Montenegro, several laws relating to the judiciary were passed or amended during 2003. On 19 March 2003, the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia dismissed 35 judges from office, including seven Supreme Court judges, amid accusations that the judiciary had failed to take tougher measures in dealing with remnants of the former regime as well as in prosecuting organized crime. The legal system in Serbia and Montenegro is still characterized by a number of contradictory and inconsistent regulations, resulting in legal insecurity. BACKGROUND On March 2002 officials of the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro signed a procedural agreement for the restructuring of relations between both states in Belgrade, in the presence of the high representative of the EU,.

    March, 2013 NEWS FROM UKRAINE Rada to adopt EU-recommended bills on data protection, combating discrimination, says speaker The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine will approve the draft laws on amendments to the laws on personal data protection and countering discrimination that was recommended by the European Union, Verkhovna Rada Chairman Volodymyr Rybak has said. “There are several key issues that need to be addressed as soon as possible. In particular, these are the legal regulation of the fight against corruption, and the introduction of the EU-recommended amendments to Ukraine’s laws in the field of personal data protection and combating discrimination,” Mr. Rybak stated at a meeting of the Interparliamentary Assembly of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the Seimas of Lithuania, the Sejm and Senate of Poland in Warsaw on 26 March. Mr. Rybak said the Verkhovna Rada has already adopted most of the laws that are needed to implement the first stage of the action plan on the liberalization of the EU visa regime with Ukraine. In particular, the Parliament passed the laws dealing with the issues related to migration, a resolution to introduce biometric travel documents. Besides, a system of personal data protection was created in Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian Parliament’s Chair, Ukraine plans to submit to the European side soon its third report on the implementation of the first stage of the visa liberalization action plan, which would give the EU grounds to switch to the second stage.

    135th IPU ASSEMBLY AND RELATED MEETINGS Geneva, 23 – 27.10.2016 Governing Council CL/199/5(b)-R.1 Item 5 26 September 2016 Interim report by the Secretary General on the activities of the IPU since the 198th session of the Governing Council (b) International Day of Democracy 2016 In November 2007, the United Nations General Assembly designated 15 September as the International Day of Democracy. The ninth celebration of this Day was observed in 2016 by a large number of parliaments, governments, civil society organizations, international organizations and the IPU. Democracy 2030 was the theme chosen by the IPU for the 2016 edition of the International Day of Democracy. As at 23 September 2016, a total of 17 parliaments1 reported having taken some action to celebrate the International Day of Democracy. A summary of parliamentary activities is annexed to this report. The theme of Democracy 2030 was widely used and parliaments benefited from the theme’s significant flexibility. Descriptions of parliamentary events and all the materials produced by the IPU for the Day are available at www.ipu.org/idd. The United Nations followed the IPU’s lead and adopted Democracy and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development as its theme for the International Day. Key messages on Democracy 2030 were developed in the IPU press release for the Day, which was widely shared on social media. The theme questioned the ways in which parliaments will function in the future, how they will engage and involve youth, and the importance of democracy for the 2030 Agenda. The discussion on the future of democracy was highly relevant at a time when new technologies are enhancing the ability of parliaments to engage more directly with citizens.
