PES Report of Activities 2001-2004 (24 April 2004)
PES • PSE • SPE European Parliament rue Wiertz B 1047 Brussels PES report of activities 2001-2004 (24 April 2004) Introduction During the period between the 2001 Berlin Congress and 2004 Brussels Congress the Party of European Socialists has faced challenges both in political and organisational terms. After a period of extraordinary electoral success in the second half of the nineties, governmental participation of PES parties has gone down. Within the EU PES parties are in government in 6 out of 15 Member states, in the new Member States PES parties are in 5 out of 10 governments. There is however no reason to conclude that European Social Democracy is facing an electoral crisis. The vast majority of EU citizens from May 1 st onwards are governed at national level led by a PES party (Germany, United Kingdom, Sweden, Spain, Poland, Czech republic, Hungary and Lithuania) or by a government with PES party participation (Belgium, Finland and Slovenia.). Fact remains that during the period 2001-2004, President Robin Cook and the Presidency had to adapt the activities to the fact that less than before PES parties were governmental parties. The role of PES ministerial co-operation has decreased and more than before the PES has undertaken major policy co- ordination projects of its own. Two major policy co-ordination projects The co-ordination of the Social Democrat and Socialist members of the European Convention under the leadership of Giuliano Amato and later the globalisation project under the leadership of Poul Nyrup Rasmussen have been project of a magnitude and an impact the PES has never seen before.

The Mainstream Right, the Far Right, and Coalition Formation in Western Europe by Kimberly Ann Twist A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Jonah D. Levy, Chair Professor Jason Wittenberg Professor Jacob Citrin Professor Katerina Linos Spring 2015 The Mainstream Right, the Far Right, and Coalition Formation in Western Europe Copyright 2015 by Kimberly Ann Twist Abstract The Mainstream Right, the Far Right, and Coalition Formation in Western Europe by Kimberly Ann Twist Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Jonah D. Levy, Chair As long as far-right parties { known chiefly for their vehement opposition to immigration { have competed in contemporary Western Europe, scholars and observers have been concerned about these parties' implications for liberal democracy. Many originally believed that far- right parties would fade away due to a lack of voter support and their isolation by mainstream parties. Since 1994, however, far-right parties have been included in 17 governing coalitions across Western Europe. What explains the switch from exclusion to inclusion in Europe, and what drives mainstream-right parties' decisions to include or exclude the far right from coalitions today? My argument is centered on the cost of far-right exclusion, in terms of both office and policy goals for the mainstream right. I argue, first, that the major mainstream parties of Western Europe initially maintained the exclusion of the far right because it was relatively costless: They could govern and achieve policy goals without the far right.

Day by Day Summary of the Election Campaign
Day by Day Summary of the Election Campaign Friday, 26 August It was Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen’s plan to introduce a bonus to people purchasing a house. This bonus has been criticized for artificially inflating house prices and therefore for being a bad way to instigate growth. On Saturday 20 August the Social Democrats (S) somehow learned about the plan and decided to launch it themselves, despite Helle Thorning-Schmidt having said on Friday that she did not want to introduce measures to stimulate the housing market. This led to a chaotic Saturday where Løkke Rasmussen and the Liberal Party (V) tried to do damage control. Quickly the Danish People’s Party (DF) declared their opposition to the plan due to a lot of their voters not being house owners. Liberal Alliance (LA) is as a general rule opposed to state subsidies so they were opposed as well leaving V and the Conservative Party (K) alone with the plan on the blue wing. On the red wing the situation was similar. S and the Socialist People’s Party (SF) agreed on the idea while the Unity List (EL) represents the left wing and therefore does not believe in the state funding those with the means to buy a house – plus a lot of their voters rent their homes. The Social Liberal Party (R) is opposed with the argument that the plan is a shortsighted one which will probably not do much for the economy anyway. Thus S-SF and VK were alone and they did not want to cooperate to get a majority for the plan.

THE JUNCKER COMMISSION: an Early Assessment
THE JUNCKER COMMISSION: An Early Assessment John Peterson University of Edinburgh Paper prepared for the 14th Biennial Conference of the EU Studies Association, Boston, 5-7th February 2015 DRAFT: Not for citation without permission Comments welcome [email protected] Abstract This paper offers an early evaluation of the European Commission under the Presidency of Jean-Claude Juncker, following his contested appointment as the so-called Spitzencandidat of the centre-right after the 2014 European Parliament (EP) election. It confronts questions including: What will effect will the manner of Juncker’s appointment have on the perceived legitimacy of the Commission? Will Juncker claim that the strength his mandate gives him license to run a highly Presidential, centralised Commission along the lines of his predecessor, José Manuel Barroso? Will Juncker continue to seek a modest and supportive role for the Commission (as Barroso did), or will his Commission embrace more ambitious new projects or seek to re-energise old ones? What effect will British opposition to Juncker’s appointment have on the United Kingdom’s efforts to renegotiate its status in the EU? The paper draws on a round of interviews with senior Commission officials conducted in early 2015 to try to identify patterns of both continuity and change in the Commission. Its central aim is to assess the meaning of answers to the questions posed above both for the Commission and EU as a whole in the remainder of the decade. What follows is the proverbial ‘thought piece’: an analysis that seeks to provoke debate and pose the right questions about its subject, as opposed to one that offers many answers.

Kunsten at Lægge Historien Til Rette Anders Fogh Rasmussen Og Opgøret Med Den Danske Udenrigspolitiske Tradition
KUNSTEN AT LÆGGE HISTORIEN TIL RETTE ANDERS FOGH RASMUSSEN OG OPGØRET MED DEN DANSKE UDENRIGSPOLITISKE TRADITION ROSANNA FARBØL Hvis du tager det sidste århundredes udenrigspolitik, var den jo fyldt med dobbeltmoral og hykleri. Tiden var præget af en typisk småstatstankegang om at leve stille og ube- mærket, foregive at være neutral og ikke lægge sig ud med nogen. Den tankegang skal ændres.1 Således karakteriserede forhenværende statsminister Anders Fogh Rasmussen i 2006 den danske udenrigspolitiske tradition samt regeringens udenrigspolitiske mission. Det var et af Anders Fogh Rasmussens stærkest markerede ønsker, at hans regeringers udenrigspolitiske proil skulle bryde med dansk udenrigspoli- tisk tradition. Han karakteriserede denne tradition som ‘den passive tilpasnings- politik’, hvor Danmark alt for ofte opgav at kæmpe for værdier som demokrati og frihedsrettigheder, og i stedet ydmygende tilpassede sig stormagter i et naivt håb om neutralitet. Samarbejdspolitikken under Besættelsen og dansk koldkrigspoli- tik, særligt fodnotepolitikken, var omdrejningspunkterne i opgøret med for tiden. Disse to politikker repræsenterede i Anders Fogh Rasmussens tolkning højde- punkterne af tilpasning i den danske udenrigspolitiske tradition, og udgjorde et internationalt såvel som et nationalt svigt samt moralsk forræderi. Opgøret med fortiden var en central del af den værdidebat, i pressen hurtigt døbt ’kulturkampen’, Anders Fogh Rasmussen startede i begyndelsen af det nye årtusinde. Værdidebattens formål var at gennemføre en holdningsændring, der skulle danne baggrund for en ændring af det danske samfund i en mere liberal retning, hvor individet i højere grad tog ansvar for sig selv. Dette skulle også gøre sig gældende i udenrigspolitikken, hvor Danmark skulle tage medansvar i ver- den, og aktivt forsvare og udbrede den vestlige verdens værdier.2 I bredere for- 1 Ugebrevet Mandag Morgen: ”Fogh” 11.9.2006.

Shaping the Peace to Come Trying to Help
Trying to help, shaping the peace to come the scandinavian role in the middle east In spite of the diversity of national situations, there is undoubtedly a Scandinavian dimension in political culture, not only economic and environmental, but also in the field of foreign policy. This is particularly true insofar as the Middle East, and the Palestinian- Israeli conflict in particular, is concerned. Ilan Halevi is the Fatah representative in the Socialist International, a member of the plo, and a writer.1 4o with which those parties took their mem- bership in the Socialist International (si), made the latter a privileged instrument, or at least a positive echo-chamber, of Scandi- navian Middle East policies. Having per- sonally represented the plo and Fatah in the si for more than two decades, I have been a privileged witness to this process, the implications of which are still highly relevant to the present day impasses. Of course, this is a specific angle of vision and recollection, and may not constitute the whole picture: attempts to put an end to the conflict came from many quarters, includ- ing the us, but also the ussr, as well as Ceausescu’s Romania or Tito’s and post- Tito Yugoslavia. Recently, South Africa, for example, has also joined the group of states trying to contribute to the Middle East peace process.
