Showing results for "Europes" in United States

In this disturbing exposé, journalist Paul L. Williams describes a secret alliance forged at the close of World War II by the CIA, the Sicilian and US mafias, and the Vatican to thwart the possibility of a Communist invasion of Europe. Williams presents evidence suggesting the existence, in many European countries, of "stay-behind" units consisting of 5,000 to 15,000 military operatives.

"I dag går Venstre og Dansk Folkeparti hånd i hånd i kynisk spekulation i at bekræfte fordomme og bygge modsætninger op. Os mod de andre. Som i andre lande udnyttes angsten for at tabe identitet. Det er trist at overvære, hvordan nogle af Venstres topfolk bruger gammelt grundtvigiansk tankegods som en slags åndelig legitimitet. Det er både uliberalt og usolidarisk. Og jeg ville ønske, at jeg også kunne kalde det udansk. I hvert fald er det ueuropæisk. For vi europæere findes i mange udgaver. Og bor hulter til bulter.

At the end of the 20th century, many believed the story of European political development had come to an end. Modern democracy began in Europe, but for hundreds of years it competed with various forms of dictatorship. Now, though, the entire continent was in the democratic camp for the first time in history. But within a decade, this story had already begun to unravel. Some of the continent's newer democracies slid back towards dictatorship, while citizens in many of its older democracies began questioning democracy's functioning and even its legitimacy.

Europa var engang verdens ubestridte centrum, i dag er det et kontinent præget af politisk splittelse, voksende social ulighed og svære økonomiske udfordringer. Dertil kommer en lederskabskrise i EU, nationalistiske partier med vind i sejlene, Brexit, store flygtningestrømme og et stadig mere aggressivt og uforudsigeligt Rusland. I "Endestation Europa" taler historiker og journalist Adam Holm med en række fremtrædende europæiske intellektuelle om, hvor vi er på vej hen - venter afgrunden forude eller er der håb?

Daher fragt dieses Lesebuch zu "Grundlagen der Sozialen Demokratie" danach, was Soziale Demokratie im 21. Jahrhundert bedeutet...

A criticare la costruzione europea, dall'euro alla BCE, dal fiscal compact all'unione bancaria, sono spesso gli stessi che hanno firmato gli accordi a Bruxelles e li hanno poi ratificati nei rispettivi paesi. Fare dell'Europa il capro espiatorio di tutti i mali è però una strategia autolesionista che non solo alimenta i vari populismi, ma espone le forze politiche e i governi che l'adottano all'accusa di essere incapaci di battere i pugni sul tavolo a Bruxelles, di sapere cosa andava fatto e di non averlo fatto.

Nonostante l'Europa sia da tempo "unita" sotto l'egida di una comunità e di una moneta condivisa tra molti dei suoi membri, diverse realtà interne non sono contente della loro condizione, geograficamente incastrate in qualche Stato a cui non sentono di appartenere o così distanti per cultura, tradizioni e lingua da quelle del governo centrale da non volerne la sudditanza.

Europe’s political climate is more hostile to Jews now than at any time in recent memory. Rising anti-Semitism among Europe’s Muslims, especially in the wake of the war in Gaza, is one reason for this change. But to claim that the rise of Muslim anti-Semitism is the main culprit - as the German journalist Jochen Bittner did this week in The New York Times - is to overlook the role played by the European majority.

"Jo Cox and Britain's Place in Europe" is from the June 21, 2016, Opinion section of The New York Times. It was written by Roger Cohen and narrated by Fleet Cooper.

Dopo un lungo periodo in cui l'Europa era principalmente un continente di emigrazione, negli ultimi decenni la tendenza si è invertita e sono sempre di più i cittadini di altri continenti che cercano di raggiungere l'Europa per i motivi più diversi. La migrazione per motivi di lavoro è per i Paesi in via di sviluppo una valvola di sfogo contro la forte crescita demografica, la disoccupazione e la sottoccupazione interna.

In 2020, after three and a half years of bitter negotiations, Britain left the European Union. For some it was a day of freedom, for others a tragedy which would leave Britain isolated and poorer. Vote Brexit, the Remain campaign warned us, and it would be an act of self-harm. The economy would collapse, sending prices and unemployment soaring. Meanwhile, in contrast to xenophobic, inward-looking Britain, the EU would soar ahead without us.

Zunehmend geeint worden ist es über zwei Drittel eines Jahrhunderts hinweg und dabei kontinuierlich gewachsen. In letzter Zeit aber kommt es gehäuft zum Auftreten von Schwachstellen, die kaum noch aus dem Weg zu räumen sind. Sobald ein Loch auch nur annähernd gestopft ist, reißt ein anderes auf. Man kann befürchten, dass Europa mittlerweile zu groß geworden sein mag und sein Zusammenhalt eher von außen verordnet als von innen gewachsen ist.

"Leaving Europe for a Lie" is from the June 27, 2016 Opinion section of The New York Times. It was written by Roger Cohen and narrated by Kristi Burns.

Britain's Brexit voters are right. They have been shamefully neglected. But the answer is to change Britain, not to leave Europe. This book sets out how we can radically improve the lives of people and communities shut out from prosperity. The EU, despite its frailties and strains, is a success story. The advantages of leaving are illusory: no gains in trade from deals with protectionist China, and the United States can compensate for what is being lost in Europe.

Lange ist es her, dass aus der EWG die EG wurde und aus dieser dann die Europäische Union. Wie setzt sie sich zusammen, wie funktioniert das Monstrum eigentlich? Demokratisch natürlich: Abgeordnete werden gewählt und stimmen ab, nachdem sie ausreichend diskutieren konnten. Worüber sie abstimmen, das steht auf der Tagesordnung, und deren jeweiliges Zustandekommen ist nicht durch das betont taktische Agieren von Lobbyisten bestimmt.
