This disruption has also been strongly felt by our young people. Young people may be less at-risk in terms of developing severe physical health symptoms linked to COVID-19, but the medium- and long-term consequences of the crisis hit our young generation particularly hard. Having to navigate the economic and social fallout from the crisis, reduced employment and career prospects, and the risk of exclusion and poverty right at the outset of one’s life, is not easy. While future prospects remain uncertain, young people have displayed great resilience. They have shown true commitment to solidarity, and have not only withstood the challenges of this crisis, but helped in many ways. The myriad projects supported under European programmes such as Erasmus+ or the European Solidarity Corps are living proof of this commitment, as are all the young people that are active in national volunteer services or youth organisations. Our younger generations have shown that they are deeply engaged in bringing relief to those that need it most. Yet, illustrative examples are not enough to craft the policies we need. For that, we need hard evidence and systematic analysis. The OECD report on Governance for Youth, Trust and Intergenerational Justice: Fit for all Generations? provides valuable insight into the experience of young people today – the challenges they face as well as what they need to thrive. Its broad evidence-base allows us to identify many good practices, but it also reveals that much remains to be done to empower our young. These practices teach us that we need to double down on our investment in social cohesion and solidarity. The evidence that backs them demonstrates that public governance is crucial in supporting young people’s transition towards independent life. We need young people to be engaged and represented if public institutions are to retain their legitimacy and have a significant impact. It calls for integrated governance to support our youth’s transition to an autonomous life, acknowledging that gains in educational attainment, technological advancements and health outcomes have not always translated into more opportunities for young people. Crucially, the report raises the issue of young citizens’ trust in government, their participation and representation. It illustrates how young people get involved both in institutionalised and non-institutionalised channels of political participation, prompting questions about legal frameworks, governance tools and capacities. The report also raises questions related to resources and inter-generational solidarity. Given that OECD nations enjoy increasingly good life conditions and their inhabitants tend to live longer, the relative weight of older generations will increase, and so will their demand for resources. There is a need, therefore, to explore the magnitude of existing inequalities across generations, and to look for solutions. This knowledge should reinforce our commitment to address the considerable challenges faced by many young people as part of our recovery plans. By joining forces in the analysis of the current problems, the Member States, the European Union, and the OECD reinforce our collective capacity to provide appropriate policy responses. The report clearly highlights the added value that a coherent, cross-sectoral and participatory youth strategy can provide in order to fulfil this task. It also shows, how new governance GOVERNANCE FOR YOUTH, TRUST AND INTERGENERATIONAL JUSTICE © OECD 2020 4 tools such as impact assessments can help to integrate the concerns of young people more systematically in policy-making and intergenerational dialogue. Investing in younger generations remains at the core of our action. We must work towards creating new opportunities – not just for them, but with them. As European Commissioner and Minister, we also deem it important to focus equally on the three core areas of the EU Youth Strategy Engage – Connect – Empower and to contribute continuously to each of them. Therefore, we are working to reinforce European Union programmes such as Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps, so that they will be more widely accessible and inclusive. Through thousands of projects every year, these programmes enable young people to shape their own channels for civic participation and community-building. We need to actively listen to our young people because there can be no justice without everyone’s voice being heard. Genuine dialogue between young people and decision makers and the achievement of the EU Youth Goals are our main objectives in taking the young people in Europe seriously. The OECD’s work on youth empowerment and intergenerational justice will help us support and sustain this endeavour. We must consider the well-being of both living and future generations, integrating intergenerational considerations more systematically in strategy design and programming, building up strategic foresight capacity to integrate a longer-term perspective in policy making, encouraging dialogue, and increasing transparency and accountability about our policy choices. Best regards, Dr. Franziska Giffey, Commissioner Mariya Gabriel, Federal Minister, Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth Youth (BMFSFJ) GOVERNANCE FOR YOUTH, TRUST AND INTERGENERATIONAL JUSTICE © OECD 2020 5 Foreword In the context of global challenges and the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on today’s young and future generations, this report provides the first comparative assessment of the policies, laws, institutional capacities and governance tools put in place by 34 OECD countries, the European Union and eight non-member countries to promote youth empowerment and intergenerational justice. It draws on the responses collected from the OECD Youth Governance Surveys by government entities in charge of youth affairs, ministries of education and selected line ministries as well as 81 OECD-based youth organisations between May 2019 and February 2020. Where relevant, it integrates insights from the OECD Policy Response (2020) Youth and COVID-19: Response, Recovery and Resilience“. This report helps policy makers deliver policies and services that leave no generation behind. It does so by providing comparative evidence, benchmarks, good practices and lessons learned in three core areas: Supporting youth’s transition to an autonomous life Enhancing youth participation and representation in public life as well as trust in government, and Delivering fair policy outcomes for all generations This report is part of the work of the OECD Public Governance Committee (PGC) to promote citizen- centred policy design to ensure inclusive growth. This work is directed by the PGC and benefits from the discussions by the Friends of Youth PLUS group, which brings together PGC delegates, youth policy makers and representatives from youth and elderly organisations. The report draws on the evidence gathered by the Public Governance Committee, the Regulatory Policy Committee,

We investigate entity framing of political figures through the use of names and titles in German online discourse, enhancing current research in entity framing through titling and naming that concentrates on English only. We collect tweets that mention prominent German politicians and annotate them for stance. We find that the formality of naming in these tweets correlates positively with their stance. This confirms sociolinguistic observations that naming and titling can have a status-indicating function and suggests that this function is dominant in German tweets mentioning political figures. We also find that this status-indicating function is much weaker in tweets from users that are politically left-leaning than in tweets by right-leaning users. This is in line with observations from moral psychology that left-leaning and right-leaning users assign different importance to maintaining social hierarchies. Keywords: framing, naming, Twitter, German, stance, sentiment, social media 1. Introduction An interesting language to contrast with English in terms of naming and titling is German.

  • Women and Men in Germany
    Women and Men in Germany Women and Men in Germany 4 Opening remarks Dear Reader, Our guiding principle in gender equality policy is that women can do anything – a straightforward statement of fact. After all, we have achieved a lot in terms of gender equality in Germany. In recent years, the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth (BMFSFJ) invested extensively in good childcare and greater reconciliation of family and work, set up the Violence against Women hotline for women affected by violence, established legal transparency meas- ures regarding remuneration, and, with the help of the binding quota, increased the proportion of women on supervisory boards. For the first time in its history, the Federal Government has adopted a gender equality strategy to which all ministries are committed. We can be proud of all these important steps. But there is still a lot to do. Ultimately, the statement “women can do anything” is also a call to action. The COVID-19 pandemic has illustrated even more clearly the areas we need to tackle: women are bearing the brunt of the crisis not only in caring professions, but also by taking on unpaid care work. The pay gap between women and men remains consistently high at 20 per cent. And one in three women in Germany experiences physical or sexualised violence in her life. This brochure shows you where we stand in terms of gender equality in Ger many. You will learn about what specific measures we are taking to com- bat existing inequalities from the expansion of day care facilities to the Stronger than Violence (Stärker als Gewalt) initiative.

  • Germany 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    GERMANY 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution prohibits religious discrimination and provides for freedom of faith and conscience and the practice of one’s religion. The country’s 16 states exercise considerable autonomy on registration of religious groups and other matters. Unrecognized religious groups are ineligible for tax benefits. Federal and some state offices of the domestic intelligence service continued to monitor the activities of certain Muslim groups and mosques. Authorities also monitored the Church of Scientology (COS), which reported continued government discrimination against its members. Certain states continued to ban or restrict the use of religious clothing or symbols, including headscarves, for some state employees. Senior government leaders continued to condemn anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim sentiment and acts. In September, Chancellor Angela Merkel described anti-Semitism as an attack on the dignity of individuals that “must be fought decisively” – ideally with education, but with the full strength of the criminal law system when necessary. Government officials responded to revelations of right-wing, anti-Semitic chat groups within police and the military by demanding investigations and dismissing those involved. Two additional state governments appointed anti-Semitism commissioners for the first time, bringing the total number of states with such commissioners to 15 (out of 16), in addition to the federal Jewish life and anti-Semitism commissioner. In October, the government announced it would increase social welfare funding for Holocaust survivors by 30.5 million euros ($37.4 million) in 2021 and provide an additional 564 million euros ($692 million) over the next two years to help Holocaust survivors cope with the burdens of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • PES Ministerial Declaration: Workers
    PES ministerial declaration: Workers’ participation, a key success factor for Europe’s recovery Adopted at the online PES meeting of Employment and Social Affairs Ministers, 13 October 2020 Fair and adequate wages, social protection, as well as stable and reliable contracts ensure the autonomy of workers the protection of their rights and contributes to their wellbeing and productivity. This autonomy and this protection enable workers of all genders to decide freely, build their future and shape their professional careers and life. This is why, as European socialists, we fight for quality jobs for all in Europe. For us, trade union membership, workers representation and participation, effective social dialogue and collective bargaining are the best ways and first choices to guarantee the protection of workers and ensure good working conditions, adequate wages and wage growth. Providing workers with the right to participate in company decision-making is a cornerstone of Social Europe. It is the trade unions’ fight and it is our fight. Covid-19 has severely hit the EU and its economies. Many companies have started restructuring processes, yet they will need a committed, innovative and creative workforce to get out of the crisis. Workers invest their time, motivation, skills and expertise for the development of a company and cannot be treated as a commodity. To the contrary, their involvement in corporate governance will help companies survive and further progress as we slowly recover from the sanitary crisis. The more extensive the involvement the higher the identification of workers and their active participation and contribution in challenging processes. Information, consultation and board-level representation of workers are part of the European social model and the social market economy, acknowledged in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the European Pillar of Social Rights.

    DHB Kapitel 6.8 Regierungsmitglieder ohne Bundestagsmandat 20.05.2021 6.8 Regierungsmitglieder ohne Bundestagsmandat Stand: 20.5.2021 In der Regel sind die Mitglieder der Bundesregierung zugleich auch Mitglieder des Deutschen Bundestages. Es gibt jedoch weder eine Bestimmung, die dieses vorschreibt, noch eine, die dieses einschränkt oder generell ausschließt (vgl. Kapitel 2.8: Inkompatibilitäten). In den bisherigen Fällen, in denen Mitglieder der Bundesregierung nicht gleichzeitig Bundestagsmitglieder waren, wird zwischen „typischen“ und „situationsbedingten“ Nichtmitgliedschaften im Bundestag unterschieden (Adalbert Hess)1. Typische Nichtmitgliedschaften finden sich z.B. bei Experten und ranghohen Beamten, die in ein Ministeramt gerufen werden, situationsbedingte Nichtmitgliedschaften oft bei Politikern, die kurzfristig wegen überraschender Minister- oder Regierungswechsel in das Bundeskabinett eintreten. Nicht selten werden letztere in der nachfolgenden Wahlperiode Mitglied des Bundestages. In der 1. bis 11. Wahlperiode waren 23 Regierungsmitglieder (einschließlich Bundeskanzler) ohne Bundestagsmandat. Die Namen der Regierungsmitglieder ohne Bundestagsmandat seit der 12.
