  • The Communication Imperative in an Era of Globalization: Beyond Conflict-Conditioned Communication
    GMJ: Mediterranean Edition 2(1) Spring 2007 63 The Communication Imperative in an Era of Globalization: Beyond Conflict-Conditioned Communication Harry Anastasiou Introduction The idea that a nation, an ethnic group, a class, or a society can protect itself or refrain from communicative interactions with other nations, ethnic groups, classes or societies is no longer tenable. The emerging complex conditions of globalization wrought by modern technology are rapidly affecting a global implosion by which historically distinctive people, cultures, values, religions, identities, civilizations and their respective socio-economic and political structures inadvertently come into increasing contact with each other (Ellul, 1980; Falk, 1999; Castells, 2000). Diverse people and cultures are rapidly confronted with the fact or the prospect that they will inevitably encounter, mix, overlap, and conflate at various levels with “the others”, despite their preferences or wishes. Under these conditions, communicating effectively and meaningfully across national, ethnic, religious, cultural, and class lines is no longer a matter of choice but an imperative of life in the emerging post-modern world. According to Bohm (2004), while the electronic mass media integrate the world’s mass communication networks, the world is confronted with a communication crisis. An essential component of this crisis is that the matrix of on-going international, inter-religious, inter-ethnic, and likely inter- civilization conflicts has effectively eroded the conditions for effective and meaningful communication. The simultaneous and instantaneous electronic transference of information does not suffice for meaningful communication, as communication breakdown occurs despite the high efficiency of the electronic media world. The particular manner in which conflict impacts inter-group communication thus warrants attention.

  • Overview of the Constitution
    CYPRUS PROBLEM: Constitution of the Republic of Cyprus file:///home/taygeti/Desktop/kupros/valmena/constitution... OVERVIEW OF THE CONSTITUTION The Republic of Cyprus was born in the early hours of 16 August 1960. On that date the Republic´s constitution was signed by the lst Governor of the Colony of Cyprus, Sir Hugh Foot, the Consul-General of Greece, George Christopoulos, his Turkish counterpart, Turel, and Archbishop Makarios and Dr. Fazil Kutchuk on behalf of the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities. The range of signatories reflected the fact that the constitution of Cyprus did not emanate from the free will of its people, who were not consulted either directly or through their ad hoc elected representatives, but from the Zurich Agreement between Greece and Turkey. The terms of that agreement, outlined in the last chapter, were included in the constitution as fundamental Articles, which could not be revised or amended. The constitution was drafted by the Joint Constitutional Commission created under Part VIII of the London Agreement of 19 February 1959. It comprised representatives of Greece, Turkey, the Greek Cypriot community and the Turkish Cypriot community. But the structure of the constitution again reflected the Zurich Agreement, with various provisions from the 1950 Greek constitution also incorporated along with the provisions of the European Convention of Human Rights in respect of fundamental rights and liberties. Two main principles underpinned the constitutional structure agreed at Zurich. The first recognised the existence of two communities on the island - the Greek and the Turkish - who, despite their numerical disparity, were given equal treatment.

HARRY ELMER BARNES The Barnes Review SOBIBÓR A JOURNAL OF NATIONALIST THOUGHT & HISTORY HOLOCAUSTPROPAGANDAANDREALITY VOLUME XVI NUMBER 4 JULY/AUGUST 2010 BARNESREVIEW.ORG A scholarly examination of the infamous Nazi “death camp” NEW FROM TBR: By Juergen Graf, Carlo Mattogno & Thomas Kues n May 2009, the 89-year-old Cleveland autoworker John Demjanjuk was deported from the United States to Germany, where he was arrested and charged with aiding and abetting murder in at least 27,900 cases. These mass murders were allegedly perpetrated at the Sobibór “death” Icamp in eastern Poland. According to mainstream historiography, 170,000 to 250,000 Jews were exterminated here in gas chambers between May 1942 and October 1943. The corpses were buried in mass graves and later incinerated on an open-air pyre. A DAGGER IN THE But do these claims really stand up to scrutiny? SOBIBOR In this book, the official version of what transpired at LEGEND Sobibór is put under the scanner. It is shown that the historiog- raphy of the camp is not based on solid evidence, but on the selec- tive use of eyewitness testimonies, which in turn are riddled with con- tradictions and outright absurdities. Could this book exonerate falsely accused John Demjanjuk? For more than half a century mainstream Holocaust historians made no real attempts to muster material Also in this issue: evidence for their claims about Sobibór. Finally, in the 21st century, professional historians carried out an archeological survey at the former camp site.

  • State of Populism in Europe
    2018 State of Populism in Europe The past few years have seen a surge in the public support of populist, Eurosceptical and radical parties throughout almost the entire European Union. In several countries, their popularity matches or even exceeds the level of public support of the centre-left. Even though the centre-left parties, think tanks and researchers are aware of this challenge, there is still more OF POPULISM IN EUROPE – 2018 STATE that could be done in this fi eld. There is occasional research on individual populist parties in some countries, but there is no regular overview – updated every year – how the popularity of populist parties changes in the EU Member States, where new parties appear and old ones disappear. That is the reason why FEPS and Policy Solutions have launched this series of yearbooks, entitled “State of Populism in Europe”. *** FEPS is the fi rst progressive political foundation established at the European level. Created in 2007 and co-fi nanced by the European Parliament, it aims at establishing an intellectual crossroad between social democracy and the European project. Policy Solutions is a progressive political research institute based in Budapest. Among the pre-eminent areas of its research are the investigation of how the quality of democracy evolves, the analysis of factors driving populism, and election research.

  • Ellada Ioannou Populism and the European Elections in Cyprus
    Spring 14 The Risks of growing Populism and the European elections: Populism and the European elections in Cyprus Author: Ellada Ioannou Populism and the European elections in Cyprus Ellada Ioannou1 The aim of this paper, is to examine the rise of Populism in Europe and its association with the increase in anti-European sentiments, using Cyprus as a case study. A questionnaire in the format of a survey, was completed by 1009 Cypriot participants. The findings, were that compared to other European Union member states, show that Populism and Euroscepticism in Cyprus seem, at present, not to be extensively prevalent. However, there seems to be a slight shift towards Euroscepticism and pre-conditions for the emergence and rise of radical right-wing Populism in Cyprus, are evident. Introduction While definitions of populism have varied over the years, making “populism” a rather vague and ill-defined concept, scholars and political analysts agree that its general ideology is that society is divided into two groups: the “pure people” and the “corrupt elitist” and that politics should be, above all, an expression of the general will of the people.2 With its positive connotation, it is argued, that populism can have a positive, corrective impact on democracy, by pointing out the need to integrate people’s ideas and interests into the political system and the political agenda.3 However, “populism” in general has acquired a negative connotation, as a potential threat to democracy, due to its historical association with authoritarian rule and due to some of its characteristics such as “illiberal democracy” and its exclusive nature.
