  • The European and Russian Far Right As Political Actors: Comparative Approach
    Journal of Politics and Law; Vol. 12, No. 2; 2019 ISSN 1913-9047 E-ISSN 1913-9055 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education The European and Russian Far Right as Political Actors: Comparative Approach Ivanova Ekaterina1, Kinyakin Andrey1 & Stepanov Sergey1 1 RUDN University, Russia Correspondence: Stepanov Sergey, RUDN University, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 5, 2019 Accepted: April 25, 2019 Online Published: May 30, 2019 doi:10.5539/jpl.v12n2p86 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v12n2p86 The article is prepared within the framework of Erasmus+ Jean Monnet Module "Transformation of Social and Political Values: the EU Practice" (575361-EPP-1-2016-1-RU-EPPJMO-MODULE, Erasmus+ Jean Monnet Actions) (2016-2019) Abstract The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of the far right (nationalist) as political actors in Russia and in Europe. Whereas the European far-right movements over the last years managed to achieve significant success turning into influential political forces as a result of surging popular support, in Russia the far-right organizations failed to become the fully-fledged political actors. This looks particularly surprising, given the historically deep-rooted nationalist tradition, which stems from the times Russian Empire. Before the 1917 revolution, the so-called «Black Hundred» was one of the major far-right organizations, exploiting nationalistic and anti-Semitic rhetoric, which had representation in the Russian parliament – The State Duma. During the most Soviet period all the far-right movements in Russia were suppressed, re-emerging in the late 1980s as rather vocal political force. But currently the majority of them are marginal groups, partly due to the harsh party regulation, partly due to the fact, that despite state-sponsored nationalism the position of Russian far right does not stand in-line with the position of Russian authorities, trying to suppress the Russian nationalists.

  • Hon. Stephen Lecce, Minister of Education August 24, 2020 Dear Minister Lecce
    Hon. Stephen Lecce, Minister of Education August 24, 2020 Dear Minister Lecce, As the Ministry and Boards of Education, educators, parents, and students all prepare for the return to school in the coming weeks, it is important that all stakeholders consider the implications and impacts of COVID-19 plans on students covered under PPM 161. With that in mind, Epilepsy Ontario and the province’s Community Epilepsy Agencies want to advise you of certain concerns that have been raised regarding how to ensure students with seizures receive proper support, with the expectation that the Ministry will proactively work with Boards of Education to address these concerns. Schools and Boards must work with parents and students to ensure that effective seizure response and accommodation plans are in place for students with epilepsy, whether attending class in-person or using remote learning options. This plan should include considerations such as: • ensuring staff have a basic knowledge of epilepsy and how to support any students in their school living with seizures, by connecting with local Community Epilepsy Agencies or using Epilepsy Ontario’s online educator training course. • discussing with parents and students the level of disclosure they are comfortable with in the classroom, either in-person or remote, such as informing classmates about a student’s seizures, with the goal of de-stigmatizing epilepsy and creating ‘buddy’ supports for issues such as washroom trips, or lessons missed due to seizures. • working with parents to understand and address individual seizure triggers or psychosocial needs a student might have (such as exhaustion, flashing lights, anxiety about COVID-19, stress about mask wearing) and recognizing that triggers vary from person-to-person with epilepsy.

  • The Attitudes of Native Swedes Toward Refugees
    Bachelor Thesis The Attitudes of Native Swedes Toward Refugees - A Case Study on the Role of Social Identity Author: Eric Sonesson Supervisor: Christopher High Examiner: Heiko Fritz Term: VT21 Subject: Peace & Development Level: Undergraduate Course code: 2FU33E Abstract Refugee-host community relations is a topic of increasing relevance, and so is the need to understand what shapes such relations. Sweden, having a historically liberal refugee and immigrant policy, accepted the biggest number of refugees in its recent history during the 2015 refugee crisis - the amount of which was the biggest per capita ever recorded in an OECD country. The attitudes of native Swedes toward refugees can be tied to whether they socially identify themselves as pluralists or nationalists, two opposing social identities which, especially in the years surrounding the refugee crisis, are observed harboring hostile attitudes toward each other. Pluralists are inclined to have positive attitudes toward refugees; nationalists are prone to have negative attitudes. While these two groups can be observed, it remains ambiguous to what extent the Swedish population identifies with them. The political popularity of openly pluralist and nationalist political parties gives some notion; however, the inherent complexity of Swedish politics makes this method of deduction overly simplistic. Seemingly contradictory, while support for multiculturalism and refugee acceptance is decreasing, the percentage harboring very negative attitudes toward migrants is historically and presently quite low, and a growing number of Swedes are observed having increasingly positive attitudes toward refugees and immigrants in their everyday interactions. As future events unfold, it will be interesting to see what identity “the silent majority” of the native Swedish population will sympathize with, as this will no doubt affect their attitudes toward refugees and change refugee-host community relations in Sweden.

  • Olena Semenyaka, the “First Lady” of Ukrainian Nationalism
    Olena Semenyaka, The “First Lady” of Ukrainian Nationalism Adrien Nonjon Illiberalism Studies Program Working Papers, September 2020 For years, Ukrainian nationalist movements such as Svoboda or Pravyi Sektor were promoting an introverted, state-centered nationalism inherited from the early 1930s’ Ukrainian Nationalist Organization (Orhanizatsiia Ukrayins'kykh Natsionalistiv) and largely dominated by Western Ukrainian and Galician nationalist worldviews. The EuroMaidan revolution, Crimea’s annexation by Russia, and the war in Donbas changed the paradigm of Ukrainian nationalism, giving birth to the Azov movement. The Azov National Corps (Natsional’nyj korpus), led by Andriy Biletsky, was created on October 16, 2014, on the basis of the Azov regiment, now integrated into the Ukrainian National Guard. The Azov National Corps is now a nationalist party claiming around 10,000 members and deployed in Ukrainian society through various initiatives, such as patriotic training camps for children (Azovets) and militia groups (Natsional’ny druzhiny). Azov can be described as a neo- nationalism, in tune with current European far-right transformations: it refuses to be locked into old- fashioned myths obsessed with a colonial relationship to Russia, and it sees itself as outward-looking in that its intellectual framework goes beyond Ukraine’s territory, deliberately engaging pan- European strategies. Olena Semenyaka (b. 1987) is the female figurehead of the Azov movement: she has been the international secretary of the National Corps since 2018 (and de facto leader since the party’s very foundation in 2016) while leading the publishing house and metapolitical club Plomin (Flame). Gaining in visibility as the Azov regiment transformed into a multifaceted movement, Semenyaka has become a major nationalist theorist in Ukraine.
