  • Mario Candeias, Understanding the Rise of the Radical Right
    Understanding the Rise of the Radical Right: Dimensions of a Generalized Culture of Insecurity Mario Candeias It is the time of monsters. The organic crisis of the old neoliberal project has also brought forth the rise of a new radical right. Yet these monsters are quite different from one another: we have strong men like Trump, Kurz and Macron— political entrepreneurs shaping a new authoritarianism from positions of govern- ance. Theresa May and Boris Johnson are acting quite similar, with less fortune, but unlike the others, they are established representatives of authoritarian elite right-wing conservatism. They all have an anti-establishment discourse in com- mon, although they have strong capital faction backing them. The authoritarian-nationalistic regimes in Poland and Hungary (or Turkey) are distinct, and are in turn different from the radical right like the Front National, Geert Wilders’s PVV or the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), the Austrian FPÖ and Italy’s Lega—both operating from a position of government. and very dif- ferent form that the Five-Star-Movement. So, how can we understand these formations’ differences and commonalities? This question must be addressed to identify specific tactics and counter-strategies in the concrete countries (see Wiegel 2018). Here, I will try to tease out a more fundamental question: how can we under- stand the reasons behind the rise of the radical right? Many different explana- tions exist, most of which are valuable in explaining certain aspects. But they exist in parallel at best, sometimes even in conflict with one another. So is there a specific relation which we could flesh out theoretically? Beyond empirical detail, only a few attempts at systematic and subject-orien- tated research have been undertaken.

Von Dänemark lernen – Keine Staatshilfen für Konzerne in Steueroasen oder Gewinnentnahmen wie Dividenden und Aktienrückkäufe Der Bundestag wolle beschließen: I. Der Deutsche Bundestag stellt fest: Die dänische Regierung hat angekündigt, Unternehmen mit Sitz in Steueroasen sowie Unternehmen, die Dividenden ausschütten oder Aktienrückkäufe tätigen, von ihren Hilfsprogrammen zur Bewältigung der Corona-Krise auszuschließen. Weitere EU- Staaten wie Frankreich, Österreich und Polen haben ähnliche Gesetzesvorhaben ange- kündigt. In Deutschland ist es weiter möglich, vor Inanspruchnahme staatlicher Hilfen, etwa aus dem Wirtschaftsstabilisierungsfonds, Dividenden auszuschütten. Aktienrückkäufe sind generell nicht untersagt. Bei KfW-Krediten sind lediglich Gewinnausschüttungen begrenzt. Dort, wo Hilfen haushaltswirksam werden, sollten schärfere Bedingungen gelten. Auch die Nutzung von Steueroasen ist für Empfänger staatlicher Hilfen bisher nicht sanktioniert. Dies gilt nicht einmal für die EU-Liste nicht kooperativer Länder und Gebiete, die weder EU-Staaten wie die Niederlande oder Luxemburg noch US-Juris- diktionen wie Delaware und andere Steueroasen gemäß Corporate Tax Haven Index (https://corporatetaxhavenindex.org/) enthält. II. Der Deutsche Bundestag fordert die Bundesregierung auf, Unterstützungsmaßnahmen für Unternehmen im Rahmen der Corona-Krise, die aus dem Bundeshaushalt besichert oder finanziert werden, für die Dauer der Programme mit folgenden Bedingungen zu unterlegen: 1.

MAIER BROADCASTING over the BBC in November 1945, A. J. P. Taylor assured his lis- teners, "Nobody in Europe believes in the American way of life-that is, in pri- vate enterprise; or rather those who believe in it are a defeated party and a party which seems to have no more future than the Jacobites in England after 1688. "I Taylor proved to be wrong, or at least premature, about the end of pri- vate enterprise. The question here is why, at least in Western Europe, there was less transformation than he envisaged. Posed in broader terms, how did Western Europe achieve political and social stability by the mid-twentieth century after two great, destructive wars and the intervening upheaval. Historians often treat stability as a passive coming to rest or a societal inertia that requires no explanation.

Nach 1945 eta- blierten sie sich als elementarer Bestandteil der poli- tischen und ökonomischen Institutionenordnung und als Teil der sozialen Lebenswelt der Beschäftigten. Im internationalen Vergleich zählen sie zu den erfolg- reichsten sozial- und demokratiepolitischen Akteuren der Industriegesellschaften. Ihr Erfolg beruhte auf einer breiten gesellschaftlichen Akzeptanz und in- stitutionellen Einbindung. Kurz: Sie sind sowohl essentieller Bestandteil des Deutschen Modells als Samuel Greef | Viktoria Kalass auch Referenzpunkt für die anderen europäischen Gewerkschaften. Wolfgang Schroeder (Hrsg.)

  • The Stagflation Crisis and the European Automotive Industry, 1973-85
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de la Universitat de Barcelona The stagflation crisis and the European automotive industry, 1973-85 Jordi Catalan (Universitat de Barcelona) The dissemination of Fordist techniques in Western Europe during the golden age of capitalism led to terrific rates of auto production growth and massive motorization. However, since the late 1960s this process showed signs of exhaustion because demand from the lowest segments began to stagnate. Moreover, during the seventies, the intensification of labour conflicts, the multiplication of oil prices and the strengthened competitiveness of Japanese rivals in the world market significantly squeezed profits of European car assemblers. Key companies from the main producer countries, such as British Leyland, FIAT, Renault and SEAT, recorded huge losses and were forced to restructure. The degree of success in coping with the stagflation crisis depended on two groups of factors. On the one hand, successful survival depended on strategies followed by the firms to promote economies of scale and scope, process and product innovation, related diversification, internationalization and, sometimes, changes of ownership. On the other hand, firms benefited from long-term path-dependent growth in their countries of origin’s industrial systems. Indeed, two of the main winners of the period, Toyota and Volkswagen, can rightly be seen as outstanding examples of Confucian and Rhine capitalism. Both types of coordinated capitalism contributed to the success of their main car assemblers during the stagflation slump. However, since then, global convergence with Anglo-Saxon capitalism may have eroded some of the institutional bases of their strength.
