Government officials, elected and unelected, increasingly see democracy as an inconvenience, even an obstacle. How far down the current path does Europe have to go before the Italian example from a century ago becomes a case of retroactive clairvoyance?
How are human communities to avoid being integrated into the international division of labor defined by the fourth industrial revolution, with its reliance on A.I.?
By refusing to put on the costume of their job, the far-Left deputies are only embodying the most mediocre individualism, which triumphs everywhere else and against which they claim to fight.
Just as British conservatives have given up on being conservative, the right-wing press has surrendered any attempt to be right-wing. Given that their popularity is in freefall, and Meloni’s is approaching escape velocity, they would do well to consider their unthinking assaults.
The reform implemented by Ad charisma tuendum is part of a larger trend to hamper institutions and practices that could be classified as rooted in tradition.
It is not their judgement of the film that is in question; it is their methods and the reasons why they were permitted to behave with impunity in a society where free speech predominates.
The U.S. administration should not have begun an ambassador’s new relationship with a foreign ally using the sort of condemnation and condescension reserved for recently vanquished mortal enemies.
Germany’s excessive energy dependence on Russia is not the outcome of a natural process, but rather the consequence of policies that have been irresponsibly made and artificially imposed.
What Putin has seen is this collapse of courage in the West, an inability to protect itself from external existential threats and a peculiar, weak slavishness to liberal culture, whilst it erodes the values of traditional societies.
For the last seventy years, agricultural policy in Europe and elsewhere has been driving efficiency and increased production, much to the detriment of societal and environmental health. But not all the blame rests on the shoulders of the technocrats. They weren’t the ones who started the revolution that made Spanish farmer Artero cry.
Truss was ridiculed for wearing furs in Moscow during a thaw. It’s an apt metaphor for her—no matter the weather, she’ll wear furs to Moscow because Thatcher did, and no matter the economic forecast, she’ll cut taxes because Thatcher did.
The Swedish government is aiming to put a blanket ban in place where there will be no new schools of any faith. This restriction is reminiscent of the educational oppression that Christians face in Cuba, Libya, North Korea, and Saudi Arabia.
Liz Truss should be able to build up enough support from MPs to carry her, beyond Mordaunt, into second place.
At every turn the British people vote for parties and provisions which purport to stand in their interests. But no referenda or election halts the displacement and radical deconstruction of our culture.
Trailing Rishi Sunak at the moment are Penny Mordaunt (82 votes), Liz Truss (71), and Kemi Badenoch (58).
As lovely as it is to see far-flung hamlets of stone houses reinhabited, it is also sometimes difficult to find in their tenuous revival a genuine re-founding of the traditional Europe of which they were originally a part.
Let us call a spade a spade: ending the tax treaty with Hungary is an act of punishment by Washington. If a country refuses to play by their rules, the U.S. administration will exclude, sanction, banish, and publicly flog the incalcitrant nation.
We are alarmed by the interference into the domestic politics of our democratic ally, as well as the anti-democratic excesses of EU politicians who continue to divide our society and question fundamental rights and freedoms.
Remember, you are not trying to establish an environment of tolerance and mutual-understanding. Like Isabella and Ferdinand, you are trying to recover the territory. Treat the new Left like people who hate you, because they do.
Mental confusion reigns in the minds of Anglican clergy. Language precautions and a deep-seated concern about crossing the boundaries of political correctness clearly distort common sense.
By sacking one of his best generals and replacing him with a ‘woke chic’ scholar when the country is already suffering from racial tensions, Macron gives the unsettling impression that France’s decadence is a settled issue.
Political theory has been reduced to a Manichean choice: either universalist human rights liberalism, shorn of any particular attachments (except during the Olympics) or expansionary, genocidal, blood and soil nationalism.
There are three reasons why stagflation is happening. The most compelling evidence is in some unique data that economists often ignore.
With Russia and China increasingly adopting Western ideological talking points and using them against us, it is time for us to question our commitment to a rhetoric that emulates the effectiveness of socialist countries.
We conservatives often identify ourselves by a set of principles and values: we honor family, faith, country, and tradition. The
In Andalusia, VOX was not really working to expand its electorate. It simply reinforced its existing messaging, retained its basic brand, and preserved its core voter base. In this way, it hoped to secure a coalition with the PP and avoid “stealing” too many votes, which might have divided the Right in parliament.
Three rampages by mentally ill people over the course of 48 hours shocked Germany last month, but the lax treatment of even the clinically psychotic may be symptomatic of a deeper societal crisis.
The EU wants to reduce its dependence on imported semiconductors and has announced a new major spending programme: the so-called “Chips Act.”
Strong U.S.-Moroccan relations make it difficult for Spain to gain clear assurances from NATO concerning the security of its north African territories. Insofar as these continue to be treated as a bargaining chip, subject to Morocco’s discretion, Spanish political elites are likely to offer concessions in other areas.
While big-drama issues proceeding from the Supreme Court make their way through the news cycle, an even bigger news story is quietly gaining speed. It is about President Biden and his weakening health.
