Wandel in Italien: Rechtspopulisten gewinnen Parlamentswahlen

Die rechtspopulistische Allianz um die Postfaschistin Giorgia Meloni hat sich bei den Parlamentswahlen in Italien durchgesetzt. Auf die neue Regierung kommen enorme wirtschaftliche Herausforderungen zu – und auf die EU und Deutschland ein schwieriger und komplizierter Kooperationspartner, meint Paweł Tokarski.

Projects

The British-German Outlook Group is a yearly exchange organised by SWP together with our partner Chatham House and kindly funded by the German Foreign Office. The Outlook Group brings together officials and leading expert of both countries for an exchange on the future of Europe, British-German relations and joint foreign policy interests.
Removing CO2 from the atmosphere (Carbon Dioxide Removal, CDR) is essential to achieving greenhouse gas neutrality in Germany, Europe and globally. A wide range of terrestrial, geological, material-based and marine CDR approaches have been proposed, and the scientific understanding of each method varies greatly.
The Daimler U.S. European Forum on Global Issues is hosted by the Brookings Institution (Washington), the Centre for European Reform (London) and the SWP, with the support of Daimler AG. Its objective is to conduct a regular, confidential dialogue on international politics involving leaders and think tanks from the United States and the European Union.
The European Policy Institutes Network participates in the debate about Europe’s future by publishing expert analyses, and works to improve mutual understanding through discussion of national discourses. Its members are think tanks and policy institutes from almost all the EU member-states and accession candidates.
Researchers from SWP and the Osrodek Studiów Wschodnich (Centre for Eastern Studies) in Warsaw conduct a German-Polish think-tank dialogue on political, social and economic developments in the post-Soviet states.
The German-Spanish Dialogue is conducted by SWP and its partner, the Barcelona Centre for International Affairs (CIDOB), with support from the Friedrich Ebert Foundation. Currently interest centres on the challenges of European integration and the European and foreign policies of Spain and Germany.
The objective of the project is to systematically record cyber incidents so as to make them easier to compare politically, technically and legally. To facilitate the classification of such incidents, EuRepoC will build an open-source databank that members of the public can use free of charge for either short or more sophisticated analyses. Project contributors are Heidelberg University, Innsbruck University and the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP).
