  • Report on Illiberal Democracy Trends in Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary and Latvia
    Report on illiberal democracy trends in Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary and Latvia Report on illiberal democracy trends in Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary and Latvia Zagreb, Ljubljana, Budapest, Riga – February 2018 Editor: Gordan Bosanac Authors: Croatian Platform for International Citizen Solidarity (CROSOL) Latvian Platform for Development Cooperation (LAPAS) Slovenian Global Action (SLOGA) DemNet Publisher: Croatian Platform for International Citizen Solidarity (CROSOL) /Platforma za međunarodnu građansku solidarnost Hrvatske More Democracy for More Europe - project supported by EU - Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency. The European Commission support for the production of this publication does not constitute an endorsement of the contents which reflects the views only of the authors, and the Commission cannot be held responsi•ble for any use which may be made of the information contained therein. Introduction In recent years, we have seen the rise of the anti-liberal democracy politics in Eastern European EU member states. In the meantime, those trends are becoming visible in some Western European Countries but also USA. The situation in Poland and Hungary is maybe the best example of such politics where citizens are giving support to political parties whose political objectives are against the EU rule of law principles and against some fundamental human rights. Recent refugee crisis has also deepen those concerns. This is a clear sign that the citizens of Eastern European EU member states are willing to give up of some of the fundamental human rights values such as freedom of expression, freedom of assembly, free media, civil society or independent judiciary. Those trends are seriously harming EU rule of law principles but also are derogating human rights and democratic standards.

[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: CHen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 The Beginning of Zoran Milanović’s Presidency and Relationship with Andrej Plenković Summary After Zoran Milanović’s victory over Kolinda Grabar Kitarović in the second round of presidential elections in January this year, the media and public started discussing on his upcoming relationship with current Prime Minister and president of Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), Andrej Plenković. When looking into their resumes, we can notice a lot of similarities, especially with their education and diplomatic background. Today, they are often perceived as rivals and after Milanović had been elected on a presidential duty, Plenković called for a “strong” cohabitation. In this article, we will analyze that very term and provide with overview of Milanović’s first moves as a new president. Introduction With Zoran Milanović being elected as a new Croatian president in January this year, a lot of questions have been raised regarding his upcoming cooperation with the current Prime Minister, Andrej Plenković. Since his victory on the presidential election, Milanović has expressed quite a few times his willingness and, most of all, his obligation to follow the rules and procedures of presidential duty and he underlined several times that he will not interfere in the work of the other part of the executive branch, that being the Government.

Tradition, Family and Property: Analysis of a Transnational, Ultra-conservative, Catholic-inspired Influence Network Professional article DOI: 10.20901/PP.8.3.03 ISBN:978-2-931029-08-4 9782931029084 Modern-day Crusaders in Europe. Tradition, Family and Property: Analysis of a Transnational, Ultra-conservative, Catholic-inspired Influence Network Written by Neil Datta, Secretary of the European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights. Brussels, June, 2020 Copyright © EPF 2020 All Rights Reserved. The contents of this document cannot be reproduced without prior permission of the author. EPF is a network of members of parliaments from across Europe who are committed to protecting the sexual and reproductive health of the world’s most vulnerable people, both at home and overseas. We believe that women should always have the right to decide upon the number of children they wish to have, and should never be denied the education or other means to achieve this that they are entitled to.

Tradition, Family and Property: Analysis of a Transnational, Ultra-conservative, Catholic-inspired Influence Network Having withered away from Latin America, TFP is now an active European network with positions against sexual and reproductive rights (SRR) among its priorities. ABSTRACT Three recent events affecting human rights in sexuality and reproduction (a proposed ban on abortion in Poland, blocking support for She Decides in Croatia and halting a civil union law in Estonia) were spearheaded by organisations which appear to be the national antennae of the transnational, socially conservative network called Tradition, Family and Property (TFP).
