  • POLICE FORCES to the BORDER! HUNGARY COMES FULL CIRCLE on OPEN BORDERS by John R
    JUNE 2015 POLICE FORCES TO THE BORDER! HUNGARY COMES FULL CIRCLE ON OPEN BORDERS By John R. Haines John R. Haines is a Senior Fellow of the Foreign Policy Research Institute and Executive Director of FPRI's Princeton Committee. Much of his current research is focused on Russia and its near abroad, with a special interest in nationalist and separatist movements. As a private investor and entrepreneur, he is currently focused on the question of nuclear smuggling and terrorism, and the development of technologies to discover, detect, and characterize concealed fissile material. He is also a Trustee of FPRI. For other nations, their land has fixed boundaries. For Rome, its boundaries are the boundaries of the Roman world.1 So, too, it seems, for the nations of the European Community, and for the Community itself. And that is the basis of the immigration crisis now raging in Hungary. When the Berlin Wall fell on 9 November 1989—Der Mauerfall to Germans—it set the two Germanys on a course to reunification eleven months later. It was in Hungary, however, where “the first stone was knocked out of the wall,” declared Helmut Kohl. In June 1989 Hungarian foreign minister Gyula Horn and his Austrian counterpart, Alois Mock used wire cutters to cut a symbolic section of the barbed wire fence separating their two countries. The next month, a small group of Hungarian dissidents and Austrian politicians organized what they intended would be a symbolic border opening outside the Hungarian border village of Sopronpuszta. The opening became more than symbolic: within a few hours, some 600 East Germans passed through a simple wooden gate into Austria.

  • Secondary Victimization Policies & Practices
    EUROPEAN CRIME PREVENTION NETWORK EUCPN Toolbox Series No. 7 Preventing Secondary Victimization policies & practices In the framework of the project ‘‘The development of the observatory function of the European Centre of Expertise on Crime Prevention within the EUCPN’. EUCPN Secretariat, March 2016, Brussels With financial support from the Prevention of and Fight against Crime Programme of the European Union European Commission – Directorate-General Home Affairs Preventing Secondary Victimization Policies & practices Preface The seventh toolbox in the series published by the EUCPN Secretariat focuses on the topic chosen by the Latvian presidency, namely Secondary Victimization. In recent years the Latvian police has taking huge steps in making the police officers aware of the phenomena and providing them with a guideline in how to prevent Secondary Victimization. They wanted to share the knowledge of this experience with the other Member States of the network and see if there were other good practices that they could use. The toolbox is divided into three parts: policy and legislation, a guideline of good and promising practices and examples from practices. All 3 parts of the toolbox are important however the most emphasis is put on the second part. Within this part of the toolbox, the focus is on the different steps of the justice system a victim has to go through. The EUCPN Secretariat made a ‘matrix’ which shows the different steps of the justice system. For each step in the judicial system, we have tried to formulate the most pressing needs of the victims, the EU minimal standards provided through the legislations discussed in part 1 and we have also formulated good practices gathered in the Member States.
