Introduction This Report summarises the attitudes, policies, and strategic responses of the EU28 to Russia’s disinformation campaign and other hostile influence operations. It is now a robustly documented fact that, since the eruption of the Ukrainian conflict in 2013, the Kremlin has pursued increasingly aggressive efforts to destabilise Western alliances, undermine their democratic processes, and sow civil discord. The purpose of this Report is to describe and assess the specific strategies and countermeasures (or lack thereof) adopted across the EU28 in response to the Kremlin’s malign influence operations. The findings of the Report are based on a qualitative analysis of national strategy documents, reports, and official statements from all 28 member states that reveal the priorities of their individual foreign, security, and defence policies. Demand is growing for a coordinated international response to Russian aggression, with many EU heads of state, other European politicians,1 and security experts2 voicing alarm about the threat. As of May 2017, several Western countries have experienced Russian interference in their elections, while the number of cyberattacks across Europe continues to rise.3 Specifically, this Report aims to summarise how individual EU member states are reacting to this growing threat in three separate domains: 1) the government and political establishment, 2) the counterintelligence community,4 and 3) the non-governmental (civic) sector. The Report thus provides a comprehensive comparative overview of the current state of play in Europe, identifying common strengths and weaknesses between countries and, most importantly, providing concrete policy recommendations for security and defence enhancement based on specific regional and group trends. Of course, it is important to keep in mind that typological studies are inherently reductive and thus cannot fully account for the particularities and complexity of individual cases (in this instance, the EU28 country profiles). Nonetheless, the identification of regional and group patterns, common challenges, and proven best practices is a valuable exercise for gaining a deeper understanding of both the threat in

  • D66 Morrelt Aan Vrijheid, Democratie En Burgerrechten
    D66 morrelt aan vrijheid, democratie en burgerrechten Door Coen de Jong - 7 maart 2020 Geplaatst in D66 - Democratie D66 werpt zichzelf graag op als de hoeder van de rechtsstaat, de vrijheid en de democratie tegenover het oprukkende populisme. Vicepremier en minister van Binnenlandse Zaken Kajsa Ollongren sprak in 2018 in een lezing: ‘Het populisme wil sommige Nederlanders anders behandelen dan andere. En daarmee bedreigt het kernwaarden van Nederland’. Woorden gericht aan het adres van oppositiepartij Forum voor Democratie. D66 wilde bij oprichting een alternatief zijn voor het vermolmde Nederlandse partijstelsel. D66 stond voor bestuurlijke vernieuwing, inspraak van de burger in plaats van handjeklap tussen verzuilde elites en voor het kiezen van burgemeesters. Directe democratie, zoals via referenda, stond ook hoog aangeschreven. En D66 zag zichzelf als vanaf het begin in 1966 pragmatisch en later tevens als ‘redelijk alternatief’. Het hoogtepunt van D66 waren de ‘paarse’ coalities in de jaren negentig waarbij D66 het CDA uit de regering wist te houden. Maar in 2006 wist lijsttrekker Alexander Pechtold – geen succes als minister van Bestuurlijke Vernieuwing – met moeite drie Kamerzetels te halen. Maar de redding was nabij. Pechtold positioneerde D66 tegenover de PVV en Geert Wilders, wat hem populair maakte bij journalisten én progressieve kiezers. Deelname in 2017 aan Rutte-3 betekende voor D66 de terugkeer in het centrum van de macht. Alleen: van de oorspronkelijke principes en van bestuurlijke vernieuwing hoorden we niets meer. Integendeel, het raadgevend referendum sneuvelde uitgerekend met Kajsa Ollongren op Binnenlandse Zaken. De website van D66 beschrijft de uitgangspunten van de partij in vijf vage ‘richtingwijzers’ over Wynia's week: D66 morrelt aan vrijheid, democratie en burgerrechten | 1 D66 morrelt aan vrijheid, democratie en burgerrechten duurzaamheid, harmonie en vertrouwen.

Gabrielli All rights reserved 2014 iii ABSTRACT SOLIDARITY MEDIATION IN THE FRENCH STREAM OF MYSTICAL BODY OF CHRIST THEOLOGY Name: Gabrielli, Timothy R. University of Dayton Advisor: William L. Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

Der Kalender erscheint nur einmal im Jahr. Ihr erwartet daher vom Kalendermann etwas ande­ res als vom Reporter einer Tageszeitung. Unser Kalender ist noch weltanschaulich einheitlich, d. h. in unserem Falle katholisch, während die Tageszeitungen nicht mehr eine, sondern ver­ schiedene religiöse und politische Anschauungen bedienen wollen. Unser Kalender kann auch nicht für alle Probleme des kommenden Jahres und darüber hinaus Lösungen anbieten. Er kann auch nicht über die tausend Geschehnisse der jüngsten Vergangenheit berichten. Der Kalender­ mann wird auf einige grundsätzliche Fragen hinweisen, die in christlichem Geist gelöst werden sollen. Ich nehme mir da ein Beispiel an einem berühmten Kalendermann, nämlich Alban Stolz; der war auch Priester wie ich, lebte auch in Freiburg, aber nicht im Üchtland, sondern im Breisgau. In einem ganz vergilbten Kalender fand ich sein Geleitwort für den Jahrgang 1881. Ich drucke es ab und schreibe daneben mein Geleitwort für 1981. Der Kalendermann F. N.

This active phase ot sturzo's career has been well documented and his name assured a permanent and honored place in the long history of his native country. But the fundamental character and depth of the social theory that also marks the achievement that was his life has not been adequately explored. It is the thesia of this work that the scope or Sturzo's theory embraced nothing less than an integral, concrete and coherent view or, being ~uman.
