  • Percent Threshold Necessary for Parliamentary Representation, Eas Preelection Polls Had Predicted That It Would Fall Short
    [NTHE OCTOBER national election, the Social Democratic Party oi austria (SPO) narrowly defeated the ruling People's Party (OVP) by 35.34 percent (68 seats) to 34.33 percent (66 seats), and stoodready to assume power after more than six years in the opposition. Although it wasclear that Social Democratic leader Alfred Gusenbauer would bethe next chancellor, his options for forming a coalition were severely limited. The SPO had ruled out any cooperation with thetwo far-right parties, the Freedom Party (FPO), which received 11.04percent of the vote (21 seats), and the Alliance for the Future of Austria (BZO), whichgarnered 4.11 percent (7 seats). A coalition with the Green Party, whichcame in third with 11.05 percent (21 seats), would not provide theSocial De- mocrats with the necessary majority, and so the new government would likely take the form of a grand coalition between the SocialDemocrats and the People's Party. Several aspects of the election surprised observers. Although the Peo- s Party had been expected to lose ground, few had thought that it ild be defeated. Also, far-right leader Jörg Haider maintained histoe- 1 in national politics: his far-right BZO just managedto finish over -percent threshold necessary for parliamentary representation, eas preelection polls had predicted that it would fall short. The Free- arty, which Haider had led for two decades before quitting it after wer struggle in 2005, did well enough to ensure that it would play a ig opposition role. Lllimigration was a major campaign issue, as many Austrians feared the proposed entry of Turkey into the European Union would flood ountry with cheap labor.

Commemoration versus Vergangenheitsbewältigung: Contextualizing Austria’s Gedenkjahr 2005* Abstract This essay explores the politics of memory in post-1945 Austrian political culture, focusing on the shift between the fiftieth anniversary of the Anschluss and the sixtieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Postwar Austrian society experienced a particular tension associated with the Nazi past, manifested in communicative and cultural forms of memory. On the one hand, the support of many for the Third Reich—expressed through active or passive complicity—threatened to link Austria with the perpetrator status reserved for German society. On the other, the Allies’ Moscow Declaration (1943) created a myth of victimization by Germany that allowed Austrians to avoid confronting difficult questions concerning the Nazi era. Consequently, discussion of Austrian involvement in National Socialism became a taboo subject during the initial decades of the Second Republic. The 2005 commemoration is notable insofar as it marked a significant break with this taboo.

  • 2018 Ranking of Countermeasures by the EU28 to the Kremlin’S Subversion Operations
    Kremlin Watch Report 13.06.2018 2018 Ranking of countermeasures by the EU28 to the Kremlin’s subversion operations Kremlin Watch Team Kremlin Watch is a strategic program which aims to expose and confront instruments of Russian This report has been consulted with 16 governmental influence and disinformation operations focused and non-governmental experts from 12 European against Western democracies. countries. 2018 Ranking of countermeasures by the EU28 to the Kremlin’s subversion operations 1 2018 Ranking of countermeasures by the EU28 to the Kremlin’s subversion operations 1. Introduction This report is a follow-up to the Overview of countermeasures by the EU28 to the Kremlin's subversion operations conducted by the European Values Think-Tank and published in May 20171. It summarises the attitudes, policies, and strategic responses of the EU28 to Russia's disinformation campaigns and other hostile influence operations. The special focus in this updated issue is on the main developments and changes, positive or negative, which took place during the months after the original report was published. Specifically, the developments have been updated up to June 1st, 2018. The second half of 2017 and first half of 2018 have been far from uneventful. The Kremlin's hostile activities are becoming ever bolder each month. Europeans have witnessed more attempts to meddle in domestic affairs and elections, increased activity of automated bots and trolls on social media, and even a physical attack on their own soil in the case of the attempted murder of Sergei Skripal and his daughter in the United Kingdom. On the other hand, the public and political debate has also progressed.

  • For Congress
    CHABOT FOR CONGRESS November 17,2017 Federal Election Commission h Office of Complaints Examination and Legal Administration ATTN: Kathrj'n Ross, Paralegal § 999 E Street, NW i Washington, D.C. 20436 RE: MUR NO. 7272 Dear Commissioners: I am writing on behalf of Congressman Steve Chabot and Cliabot for Congress as its Treasurer (referred to collectively as "we") in response to MUR NO. 7272. We have the unenviable, if not impossible, task of proving not only a negative, but also proving a negative about which no actual information or evidence has been produced by the complainant, J. Whitfield Larrabee. Despite the lack of evidence provided in Mr. Larrabee's complaint (the "Complaint"), we have been able to uncover, contrary to Mr. Larrabee's allegations, that the contribution to Chabot for Congress in question was made at a time during which the contributor (Edward Kutler) did not represent Ukrainian interests. As detailed below, this evidence vitiates the entire Complaint as it relates to Congressman Steve Chabot and his campaign, Chabot for Congress. In MUR NO. 7272, Mr. Larrabee charges 24 different parties for their involvement in a vaguely-defined intemational conspiracy to "corrupt[] the 2014 primary and general elections, the deliberations of the United States Senate and the deliberations of the United States House of Representatives.'" As evidence of this conspiracy, Mr. Larrabee cites fees received by numerous registered lobbyists from several Ukrainian interests, including (as it pertains to this response) the European Centre For a Modem Ukraine ("ECFMU"). Mr. Larrabee did not name Congressman Chabot nor his campaign as a party to the Complaint, nor did he provide any evidence that either were a party to this alleged conspiracy.
