  • The Bucerius Summer School on Global Governance
    THE BUCERIUS SUMMER SCHOOL ON GLOBAL GOVERNANCE Globalization and Fragmentation: The Future International Landscape A two-week seminar of the ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius, Hamburg in cooperation with the Heinz Nixdorf Stiftung, Essen Dean and Moderator: Theo Sommer, Editor-at-Large, DIE ZEIT, Hamburg THE BUCERIUS SUMMER SCHOOL ON GLOBAL GOVERNANCE Globalization and Fragmentation: The Future International Landscape From August 2 to September 7, 2008, the ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius, in cooperation with the Heinz Nixdorf Stiftung, holds its eighth annual Bucerius Summer School on Global Governance. The original idea to create such an institution harked back to Henry Kissinger’s famous International Summer Seminar at Harvard University. In the 1960s, Kissinger brought together emerging leaders from all over the world for a summer course of debates and lectures. Many of the seminar’s alumni went on to become ministers, renowned academics, prominent journalists – leaders in their respective fields. Out of this year’s 27 candidates – nominated by government heads, company CEO’s, university presidents, media leaders and directors of international organizations – we have invited 60 pro- mising business representatives, politicians and academics from 28 different countries – young women and men between 28 and 35 years of age who have already acquired considerable profes- sional experience. The overall aim of the Bucerius Summer School is to foster leadership qualities in young professionals by involving them in an international dialogue on current political, economic, social and juridical questions. Participants are inspired by – and learn from – distinguished speakers, well-known public figures in poli- tics, business, academia and the NGO sphere.

  • Compassionate and Visionary Leadership. Key Lessons of Social Democratic Governance in Times of Covid-19
    PROGRESS IN EUROPE 31 Compassionate and visionary leadership Key lessons of Social Democratic governance in times of Covid-19 Ania Skrzypek The Covid-19 pandemic has triggered an unforeseen reaction from European citizens. People – the same people that until a year ago were very vocal in expressing their mistrust in politics and institutions – instinctively turned to their national government to receive care and cure in a moment of deep crisis. Furthermore, they found a feeling of mutual solidarity, particularly in the fi rst stages of the lockdown, and naturally longed for a more robust welfare state. These are not changes that one can consider permanent or long-term. Yet they have had signifi cant implications for politics and for political parties, and for the Social Democratic ones in particular, which are strongly committed to values such as solidarity, and have traditionally been cham- pions of the European welfare states. The new public mood has allowed for welfare policies to be recognised as essential, that during the 2008 fi nancial crisis were considered simply too costly. What is more, the crisis has offered the opportunity for the Social Democratic parties in government to set the direction rather than merely manage the crisis. Empathy and com- munication focused on safeguarding jobs have become fundamental tools for establishing a connection with the European people. At the end of 2020 social media were fl ooded by memes that would immortalise the passing year as a complete disaster. The depiction varied with some suggesting ‘all down the drain’ and others implicitly offering the hope that from the absolute low in which the world had found itself, there was no other way but upwards.

  • Finland' Political Structure NCEE
    2020-21 Legislative International Education Study Group OVERVIEW OF FINLAND’S POLITICAL STRUCTURE Political Structure:1,2 • Finland is a parliamentary representative republic with both a popularly elected president, whose role is mostly ceremonial, and a parliament with a cabinet and a prime minister. • Finland has a 200-member unicameral parliament (Eduskunta). Almost all members are directly elected in single- and multi-seat constituencies by proportional representation vote to four-year terms. The most recent parliamentary elections were held in April 2019 (see below). They will be held again in April 2023.3 • Finland’s president is directly elected by absolute majority popular vote for a six- year term and is eligible to serve a second term. The current president, Sauli Niinisto, was elected in 2012 and reelected in 2018. The next presidential election will be held in 2024.4 • Finland’s prime minister is appointed by the Eduskunta.5 The current prime minister, Sanna Marin, was appointed in December 2019 (see below).6 Political Context: Finland has a strong history of multi-party politics, with no one party having majority control for long. In 2015, the Center Party won the majority of parliamentary seats and formed a coalition with the National Coalition Party and the relatively new Finns Party. The Finns Party was formed in 1995 and is a nationalist, Euro-sceptic and anti-establishment party. The 2015 coalition was the first time the Finns Party had participated in government. However, in March 2019, just a month before parliamentary elections in April, the coalition government fell apart. The April 2019 national election was the first in Finland’s history in which no party came away with more than 20 percent of the vote.

    ISSN: 2560-1601 Vol. 27, No. 1 (GR) March 2020 Greece political briefing: The New Greek President George N. Tzogopoulos 1052 Budapest Petőfi Sándor utca 11. +36 1 5858 690 Kiadó: Kína-KKE Intézet Nonprofit Kft. [email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: CHen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 The New Greek President The first female President of Greece undertook its duties in a very difficult period for the Greek economy and society, in March 2020. Katerina Sakellaropoulou, the former President of the Council of State, was the personal choice of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis to succeed Prokopis Pavlopoulos. Pavlopoulos played a constructive role in the summer of 2015, when Greece’s stay in the Eurozone was jeopardized, but is considered a politician with close ties to SYRIZA by most New Democracy members, even the Kostas Karamanlis’ wing which largely supports him. Mitsotakis nominated a woman to become the President to make a symbolic gesture in line with European guidelines and send a message of unity to Greek citizens. Chinese President Xi Jinping immediately congratulated Sakellaropoulou after her election. The new President of Greece, Katerina Sakellaropoulou was sworn in on 13 March 2020. As in mid-March the government ordered a lockdown to fight against COVID-19, the ceremony was only attended by a small number of people. In particular, instead of 1000 people who would have been able to participate under normal circumstances, 150 people were present in the plenary. Political parties, for example, were represented by the heads of their parliamentary group.
