  • Fighting Corruption with Con Tricks: Romania's Assault On
    FIGHTING CORRUPTION WITH CON TRICKS: ROMANIA’S ASSAULT ON THE RULE OF LAW David Clark FIGHTING CORRUPTION WITH CON TRICKS FIGHTING CORRUPTION WITH CON TRICKS: ROMANIA’S ASSAULT ON THE RULE OF LAW 2 FIGHTING CORRUPTION WITH CON TRICKS Executive Summary Democracy in Europe is facing its greatest challenge since the fall of the Berlin Wall. The threat comes not only from the rise of political movements that openly reject liberal democratic values, including the governing parties of Hungary and Poland, but also from the risk of creeping authoritarianism caused by a gradual decline in standards of governance and the weakening of important democratic underpinnings, such as the rule of law. Romania is a country of particular concern. Although it has earned international praise for its recent efforts to stamp out corruption, a detailed examination of Romania’s anti-corruption activities shows that they often provide convenient cover for acts of political score settling and serious human rights violations. The methods used show a considerable degree of continuity with the practices and attitudes of the communist era. The strong correlation between those targeted for prosecution and the interests of those in power is indicative of politicised justice. Cases have often been accompanied by campaigns of public vilification designed to maximise their political impact. Far from being above politics, Romania’s National Anti-corruption Directorate (DNA) is an active participant in its partisan struggles. Although the rule of law requires the justice system to work independently of government, there is clear evidence of collusion between prosecutors and the executive in Romania.

  • The Blitz and Its Legacy
    THE BLITZ AND ITS LEGACY 3 – 4 SEPTEMBER 2010 PORTLAND HALL, LITTLE TITCHFIELD STREET, LONDON W1W 7UW ABSTRACTS Conference organised by Dr Mark Clapson, University of Westminster Professor Peter Larkham, Birmingham City University (Re)planning the Metropolis: Process and Product in the Post-War London David Adams and Peter J Larkham Birmingham City University [email protected] [email protected] London, by far the UK’s largest city, was both its worst-damaged city during the Second World War and also was clearly suffering from significant pre-war social, economic and physical problems. As in many places, the wartime damage was seized upon as the opportunity to replan, sometimes radically, at all scales from the City core to the county and region. The hierarchy of plans thus produced, especially those by Abercrombie, is often celebrated as ‘models’, cited as being highly influential in shaping post-war planning thought and practice, and innovative. But much critical attention has also focused on the proposed physical product, especially the seductively-illustrated but flawed beaux-arts street layouts of the Royal Academy plans. Reconstruction-era replanning has been the focus of much attention over the past two decades, and it is appropriate now to re-consider the London experience in the light of our more detailed knowledge of processes and plans elsewhere in the UK. This paper therefore evaluates the London plan hierarchy in terms of process, using new biographical work on some of the authors together with archival research; product, examining exactly what was proposed, and the extent to which the different plans and different levels in the spatial planning hierarchy were integrated; and impact, particularly in terms of how concepts developed (or perhaps more accurately promoted) in the London plans influenced subsequent plans and planning in the UK.

  • 'Till Martyrdom Do Us Part': Gender and the ISIS Phenomenon
    ‘Till Martyrdom Do Us Part’ Gender and the ISIS Phenomenon erin marie saltman melanie smith About this paper This report represents the second publication in ISD’s Women and Extremism (WaE) programme, launched in January 2015 to fill a large blind spot in the evolution of the global extremist threat. This report also builds upon ICSR’s research into the foreign fighter phenomenonlxviii. Questions are now being posed as to how and why females are being recruited, what role they play within violent extremist organizations, and what tools will best work to counter this new threat. Yet very little work has been done to not only answer these questions but to build sustainable preventative measures. WaE serves to pioneer new research, develop global networks, seed local initiatives, and influence social media, in-line with work already being piloted by the ISD. About the authors Dr. Erin Marie Saltman is a Senior Researcher at ISD overseeing research and project development on Women and Extremism (WaE). WaE aims to fully analyse the radicalisation processes of women into violent extremist networks as well as increase the role women play in countering extremism. Erin’s background includes research and analysis work on both far-right and Islamist processes of radicalisation, political socialization and counter-extremism programmes. She regularly advises governments and security sectors across Europe and North America on issues related to online extremism and the role of the internet in radicalisation. Erin holds a PhD in political science from University College London. Melanie Smith is a Research Associate working on ISD’s WaE programme.

  • Rethinking the Role of Education in Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism
    Chapter 7 At the Crossroads: Rethinking the Role of Education in Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism Thomas K. Samuel This chapter looks at the issue of violent extremists and terrorists targeting the education sector, and subsequently recommends steps that the education sector can take to prevent and counter violent extremism (PCVE) amongst students. Educational institutions in general and students in particular have been targeted by violent extremists and terrorists. Paradoxically, they have sought to physically attack and destroy institutions of learning, while at times, they have actively sought to radicalize and subsequently recruit students to join their cause. Short case studies of attacks on educational institutions in different parts of the world, as well as instances of young people being radicalized in schools and universities, are presented and evaluated. Emphasis is then put on revisiting the idea of education and envisioning a greater role for it to play in PCVE among students. A case is presented for the education sector to take the lead in PCVE among the youth; given education’s strategic advantages in terms of coverage in reaching the youth, duration of contact with the youth, and access into the cognitive and emotional makeup of the youth. A “whole-of-education” approach is proposed, whereby the educational institutes will identify specific areas of the students’ cognitive and emotional spheres in which to build PCVE related “firewalls” in a systematic and comprehensive manner. In this proposed PCVE approach, teachers will take a redesigned role that would focus more on mentoring and guiding, preparing a “safe space” to initiate discussions, and building trust and credibility to maximize their ability to impart the contents to the students.

  • Radu Cristian RĂILEANU*1 Religion-Based User Generated
    Revista_comunicare_38:Revista_comunicare_38.qxd 26.07.2016 11:20 Page 55 Romanian Journal of Communication and Public Relations vol. 18, no 2 (38)/ July 2016, 55-65 ISSN: 1454-8100/ E-ISSN: 2344-5440 Radu Cristian RÃILEANU*1 Religion-Based User Generated Content in Online Newspapers Covering the Colectiv Nightclub Fire Abstract The high degree of interactivity of the Internet, combined with the almost ubiquitous presence of forums on online media publications, has offered everybody the possibility to express their opinions and beliefs on websites. This paper uses content analysis to examine the religion-based comments that were posted on 8 Romanian mainstream news websites in reply to articles regarding a fire that broke out during a rock con- cert in Bucharest, killing over 50 people and injuring more than 100. The analysis also included the answers to these comments. Among the findings, we have discovered that the highest percentage of religion-based comments made some type of reference to Satanism and that very few of them expressed compassion to- wards the victims. On the other hand, counter-speech strategies managed to halt hate speech in almost half of the cases where they were employed. However, personal attacks against religion-based commentators were the most commonly used form of counter-speech, contributing to an unfriendly climate on the forums. Keywords: hate speech; user-generated content; religion; counter speech; content analysis. Introduction: Hate Speech as a Form of Expression on the Internet The fact that the Internet is a place where people can easily express their beliefs anony- mously in an environment with a high degree of interactivity has transformed it into one of the most important tools for spreading out positive messages, but also hateful ones (Erjavec & Kovacic, 2012).
