  • Case Study on the United Kingdom and Brexit Juliane Itta & Nicole Katsioulis the Female Face of Right-Wing Populism and Ex
    Triumph of The women? The Female Face of Right-wing Populism and Extremism 02 Case study on the United Kingdom and Brexit Juliane Itta & Nicole Katsioulis 01 Triumph of the women? The study series All over the world, right-wing populist parties continue to grow stronger, as has been the case for a number of years – a development that is male-dominated in most countries, with right-wing populists principally elected by men. However, a new generation of women is also active in right-wing populist parties and movements – forming the female face of right-wing populism, so to speak. At the same time, these parties are rapidly closing the gap when it comes to support from female voters – a new phenomenon, for it was long believed that women tend to be rather immune to right-wing political propositions. Which gender and family policies underpin this and which societal trends play a part? Is it possible that women are coming out triumphant here? That is a question that we already raised, admittedly playing devil’s advocate, in the first volume of the publication, published in 2018 by the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Triumph of the women? The Female Face of the Far Right in Europe. We are now continuing this first volume with a series of detailed studies published at irregular intervals. This is partly in response to the enormous interest that this collection of research has aroused to date in the general public and in professional circles. As a foundation with roots in social democracy, from the outset one of our crucial concerns has been to monitor anti-democratic tendencies and developments, while also providing information about these, with a view to strengthening an open and democratic society thanks to these insights.

  • Prison Reform Trust Response to Transforming Rehabilitation
    Prison Reform Trust response to Transforming Rehabilitation The Prison Reform Trust is an independent UK charity working to create a just, humane and effective penal system. We do this by inquiring into the workings of the system; informing prisoners, staff and the wider public; and by influencing Parliament, government and officials towards reform. The Prison Reform Trust's main objectives are: Reducing unnecessary imprisonment and promoting community solutions to crime Improving treatment and conditions for prisoners and their families Overview The Prison Reform Trust welcomes, with the caveats outlined in our response, the focus of the consultation on rehabilitation and extending support to short sentenced prisoners. The needs of this group have been neglected for too long. We welcome the acknowledgement of the importance of addressing common social factors behind their offending, including “broken homes, drug and alcohol misuse, generational worklessness, abusive relationships, childhoods spent in care, mental illness, and educational failure.” This presents a compelling case for government and local authority departments to work together to address the social factors that drive crime. This needs to be reflected in plans, and budgetary arrangements, for cross-departmental working at national and local levels. Our key points in response to the proposals are: Mentoring should be available to all prisoners serving less than 12 months on a voluntary basis Responsibility for the statutory supervision of all low, medium and high risk
