The essential significance of the articles published in this spring issue of BJES lies in a new perspective given to the key issues in the field of economic policy of the European Union, as well as of Estonia as a Member State. This volume offers challenging studies on perspectives of the EU economy by Alari Purju and Rünno Lumiste. Gabriel Hazak presents an article about the EU’s legal status, and Lehte Roots discusses aspects of citizenship. Several papers of the volume address legal ethnic and cultural identity aspects highlighted by case studies on Georgia, Latvia and Estonia. Last but not least, we incorporated into the current journal issue a special section to celebrate a significant milestone in the academic life of Estonian scientists— the 80th birthday of Dr Ülo Ennuste this spring. Professor Ülo Ennuste, DSc is one of the leading economic scientists in Estonia and has been successfully working at the Tallinn Institute of Economics of the Estonian Academy of Sciences and at the Tallinn Technical University. He has authored and co-authored 15 books and more than 160 research articles of wide acclaim. Professor Ennuste is an outstanding man whose personal contacts in the international arena and widespread cooperation have strongly contributed to the dissemination of economic science in Estonia. Dr Ennuste’s current article in BJES enriches the Estonian economic science with a discussion about resources on macroeconomic knowledge in order to facilitate the ‘European Semester’ processes. Its main message is that the quality of the agents’ knowledge structures may play the basic role and importance in reaching effective equilibrium. We hope that the readers of the journal’s spring issue will find it both informative and full of fresh ideas that are expected to have a positive impact on their way of thinking and cooperation in the European Union.

Library British Library of Political and Economic Science Abstract This study investigates the interplay of collective memories and national identity in Estonia, and uses life story interviews with members of the intellectual elite as the primary source. I view collective memory not as a monolithic homogenous unit, but as subdivided into various group memories that can be conflicting. The conflict line between ‘Estonian victims’ and ‘Russian perpetrators* figures prominently in the historical culture of post-Soviet Estonia. However, by setting an ethnic Estonian memory against a ‘Soviet Russian’ memory, the official historical narrative fails to account for the complexity of the various counter-histories and newly emerging identities activated in times of socio-political ‘transition’.

  • Report on the Estonian Theatre Festival, Tartu 2018: a 'Tale of The
    European Stages https://europeanstages.org Report on the Estonian Theatre Festival, Tartu 2018: A ‘Tale of the Century’ For states across Central and Eastern Europe, 2018 marks the centenary of their national independence, gained in the aftermath of WWI. In the case of the Baltic States, this independence was, of course, lost in the aftermath of WWII, when they became not simply a part of Comecon and the Warsaw Pact, but were directly incorporated into the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Baltic countries initially reverted to their pre-war constitutions, seeking to affirm political legitimacy in terms of a restoration of sovereignty, rather than simply an assertion of “post-Soviet” independence. If the principle of “small nations” foreign policy is the forging of alliances, then the accession to the EU and NATO during the 1990s was another momentous historical change, even as these alliances are now beset by new challenges. (Paradoxically, Brexit may even have a unifying effect for the EU 27, faced with the rise of European nationalist parties.) Other de-stabilizing effects come not only from Russian interference in European political processes, but from the seeming disregard for historical understanding within the Trump administration, whether regarding Europe, the Korean peninsula, or climate change. By contrast, learning not only about, but also from, history has always been a touchstone of liberal education, one medium for which is, of course, theatre – a practice that remains state-supported throughout Europe. In Estonia, the 1918-2018 centenary has been commemorated by a unique, year-long theatrical project – Tale of the Century – consisting of collaborations between big repertory theatres and small independent companies from all over the country (creating 13 productions, each focusing on a particular decade, with one also addressing the next 100 years).

I combine media studies with political science, EU studies and nationalism studies to scrutinize this period as an example of a ‘formative moment’. During this formative moment the EU became ‘the new official Other’ in relation to which a new temporary community, Estonia as a candidate country, was ‘imagined’ in the paper. The study is based on the assumption that national identity as a normative process of making a distinction between us and Others occurs in societal texts, such as the media.

  • A Governance Agreement Between the Estonian Reform Party and the Estonian Centre Party and a Cooperation Agreement of the Government Coalition for 2021–2023
    A governance agreement between the Estonian Reform Party and the Estonian Centre Party and a cooperation agreement of the government coalition for 2021–2023 The Estonian Reform Party and the Estonian Centre Party form a government that will continue to efficiently solve the COVID-19 crisis, maintain the progressive nature of Estonia, and develop the state in all fields and regions. Both parties understand that the current political and societal atmosphere in Estonia is tense and will do everything in their power to create a wider political trust and a desire for cooperation among all Estonian citizens to further progress the state. The coronavirus pandemic requires continuous decisive action in the immediate future to prevent the disease from spreading, vaccinate Estonian people, strengthen the healthcare system, manage the educational sphere, guarantee the income of all citizens, and support entrepreneurship. The coalition partners will follow the following principles in the government coalition. • We will stand for a progressive political culture that treats all societal groups as equally respectable, and for an honourable governance, drawing from the spirit of our constitution. • Estonia is a great small nation that supports all people, their will for self-fulfilment and their wish to contribute to the development of Estonia. • We will follow the best common interests of the Estonian nation and citizens, and the principles of justice and truth. Estonia is a country that follows the rule of law and all our societal decision-making processes are as transparent as possible. • We prioritise decreasing social, economic, and regional inequality, and developing the health and well-being of each citizen.

  • Energy Policies Beyond IEA Countries

The terms and conditions are available online at http://www.iea.org/ termsandconditionsuseandcopyright/ 2013 Energy Policies OECD/IEA, © Beyond IEA Countries Energy Policies Beyond IEA Countries Estonia 2013 One of the fastest-growing economies in the OECD, Estonia is actively seeking to reduce the intensity of its energy system. Many of these efforts are focused on oil shale, which the country has been using for almost a century and which meets 70% of its energy demand. While it provides a large degree of energy security, oil shale is highly carbon-intensive. The government is seeking to lessen the negative environmental impact by phasing out old power plants and developing new technologies to reduce significantly CO2 emissions. The efforts on oil shale complement Estonia’s solid track record of modernising its overall energy system. Since restoring its independence in 1991, Estonia has fully liberalised its electricity and gas markets and attained most national energy policy targets and commitments for 2020. It has also started preparing its energy strategy to 2030, with an outlook to 2050. Estonia is also promoting energy market integration with neighbouring EU member states. The strengthening of the Baltic electricity market and its timely integration with the Nordic market, as well as the establishment of a regional gas market, are therefore key priorities for Estonia. Following its accession to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 2010, Estonia applied for International Energy Agency (IEA) membership in 2011.
