Report on conservative and right wing Europe 20th March, 2021 GERMANY 1. jungefreiheit.de (translated, original by jungefreiheit.de, 18.03.2021) "New German media makers" Migrant organization calls for more “diversity” among journalists media BERLIN. The migrant organization “New German Media Makers” (NdM) has reiterated its demand that editorial offices should become “more diverse”. To this end, the association presented a “Diversity Guide” on Wednesday under the title “How German Media Create More Diversity”. According to excerpts on the NdM website, it says, among other things: “German society has changed, it has become more colorful. That should be reflected in the reporting. ”The manual explains which terms journalists should and should not use in which context. 2 When reporting on criminal offenses, “the prejudice still prevails that refugees or people with an international history are more likely to commit criminal offenses than biographically Germans and that their origin is causally related to it”. Collect "diversity data" and introduce "soft quotas" Especially now, when the media are losing sales, there is a crisis of confidence and more competition, “diversity” is important. "More diversity brings new target groups, new customers and, above all, better, more successful journalism." The more “diverse” editorial offices are, the more it is possible “to take up issues of society without prejudice”, the published excerpts continue to say. “And just as we can no longer imagine a purely male editorial office today, we should also no longer be able to imagine white editorial offices. Precisely because of the special constitutional mandate of the media, the question of fair access and the representation of all population groups in journalism is also a question of democracy.

  • Why Is Klaus Iohannis Outsourcing Romania's Foreign Policy?
    6/7/2017 Why is Klaus Iohannis outsourcing Romania’s foreign policy? | LSEE Blog May 15 2015 Why is Klaus Iohannis outsourcing Romania’s foreign policy? Blog Team Klaus Iohannis’ election was seen by many to signal a shift from the ‘old’ corrupt ways of doing politics in Romania and a historical moment that would mark the start of deep processes of transformation in Romanian politics and society. He offered the promise of making politics more efficient and less driven by short term, narrow interests of corrupt politicians. What is left of these hopes after his first six months in office?, asks Dr Cristian Nitoiu. The people of Romania has chosen Iohannis as their new President. Photo: iohannispresedinte.ro Much of President Iohannis’attention has been focused on the fight against corruption, or assuring the independence and autonomy of the justice system. His approach has been based on the overwhelming support of the Romanian public opinion for strengthening the justice system and curbing corruption at the all levels of politics and society. In turn, practical results have been impressive. Almost every day new corrupt politicians or businessmen have been investigated or convicted. In this background foreign policy has become a marginal, if not the least important priority for Iohannis. This is very surprising: in Romania’s constitutional system the most important policymaking and agenda­setting powers of the President lie precisely in this area. In contrast to his firm stance on corruption, in external relations he has been almost absent, showing signs of a lack of strategy, vision and aspirations.

Governments have resoundingly answered first-generation internet law questions of who if anyone should regulate the internet—they all will. We now confront second generation questions—not whether, but how to regulate the internet. We argue that digital sovereignty is simultaneously a necessary incident of democratic governance and democracy’s dreaded antagonist. As international law scholar Louis Henkin taught us, sovereignty can insulate a government’s worst ills from foreign intrusion. Assertions of digital sovereignty, in particular, are often double-edged—useful both to protect citizens and to control them. Digital sovereignty can magnify the government’s powers by making legible behaviors that were previously invisible to the state. Thus, the same rule can be used to safeguard or repress--a feature that legislators across the Global North and South should anticipate by careful checks and balances.

The bill was rejected by the senate, however, the initiative caused a number of controversies on the political scene in Romania, including, above all, the statement of President Klaus Iohannis. The President’s statement was criticized by the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Romanian National Council for Combating Discrimination. The whole matter is more contentious because of the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Trianon Treaty, which was celebrated this year. June 4th, 1920, was marked differently in the history of these two countries: as the emergence of Greater Romania and as the end of Greater Hungary. In the region of Central Europe, history plays a special role, which was clearly demonstrated by the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Trianon. This uneasiness can be observed in the area of bilateral relations and it is particularly clear in the case of Hungary and Romania. (The anxieties in the region can be observed in the context of bilateral relations and they are particularly clear in the case of Hungary and Romania). The source of tension in the Hungarian-Romanian relations lies in Transylvania (Rumanian Transilvania or Ardeal, Hungarian Erdély).

  • A Multi-Speed Europe. a View from Romania
    Research Paper Multi-speed Europe. A view from Romania Ist edition Mihai SEBE December 2019, Bucharest, Romania A Multi-speed Europe. View from Romaniai By Mihai SEBE, PhD Bucharest, Romania Abstract: The idea of a multi-speed Europe has become a topic of debate at the European level since the early 1990’s as our continent faced the enormous pressures of change induced by the collapse of the communist system in Eastern and Central Europe followed by the continuous reform of the European Communities and later on of the European Union and its process of eastward enlargement. This debate steamed up after the Brexit Referendum of 2016 as the multi-speed Europe appeared to be one of the solutions of coming up from the crisis. Following the Sibiu Declaration of 2019 that spoke of one Europe and the European Parliament elections, the topic seems to have become dormant for the time being as the political energies are focused upon solving more immediate issues.

  • The Hungarian Card Came Is out of the Vest Pocket of Romanian President Klaus Werner Iohannis
    The Hungarian card came is out of the vest pocket of Romanian President Klaus Werner Iohannis Head of State Klaus Iohannis was reported to the National Anti-Discrimination Council by the Imre Mikó Legal Protection Service. The legal protection service asks the Council to investigate Klaus Iohannis' statement issued this morning, in which the Head of State of Romania seriously violates the right of the Hungarian community to dignity and speaks in an unworthy and discriminatory manner about the Hungarians in Romania. The President's discriminatory anti-Hungarian outburst was triggered by the tacit adoption of the Romanian House of Representatives of a bill regarding the autonomy of Szeklerland. "Jó napot kívánok PSD," (Have a good day!) said the President in Hungarian, who stated, that while the government was fighting the coronavirus, the PSD was working to give the Hungarians Transylvania. “It’s unbelievable what’s going on in the parliament. What did Viktor Orbán promise Ciolacu (President of the PSD) in return for this agreement?” While the head of state proudly declares towards the international fora that Romania is the Paradise for national minorities, today in his speech he promised the following: as long as he is the president of Romania, there will be no law that would guarantee autonomy for Szeklerland. Although the submitted draft text on autonomy does not in any way diminish the rights of Romanians, or even the Romanians of Szeklerland, however it would guarantee the use of the mother tongue and the Hungarian language becoming an official regional language in Szeklerland. The draft-bill states what all of us desire: to make our own decisions on issues that affect our own community.
