Institute (IMK).
We are embarking on the frequently invoked ‘decade of modernisation’, which will be accompanied by massive investment and expenditure needs. However, in the wake of the pandemic, public debt in Germany and Europe has grown to record levels. The question of war and peace in Europe has also returned in full force. The economic and social consequences will be immense. The European and global economy is facing new uncertainties.
After two years of pandemic, the Africa Day, the largest event on Africa and international cooperation in the Netherlands, came back!
This year, the event – hosted by Foundation Max van der Stoel and FEPS – focused on theimportance of African voicesin civic discussions and policy at the national and international levels.

Although many volumes have already discussed several Covid-related socio-economic phenomena, relatively less attention has been paid to a substantive research question: what has Covid meant for political processes?
The research project is a 100 page-long collection of policy briefs analysing Covid impact on electoral laws and pre-campaign strategies; electoral campaigns in the pandemic, as well as post-electoral processes and governments’ formations experiences.
“Voting during pandemics – making democracy resilient in turbulent times” is a project by FEPS in partnership with the Institute forSocial Integration (ISI), Centrum Im. Ignacego Daszyńskiego, the Masarykova demokratická akademie, the Foundation for a Democratic Left and Drustvo Progresiva. Read More
A pervasive sense of disenfranchisement haunts rural areas all over the European Union: many people in remote places feel they are not being heard, their voices are not considered, and their specific issues never make it into the political agenda. And oftentimes, as voters, they are tempted by radical populists who promise to make their grievances heard.
Even though the pandemic seems
to have increased the attraction of the countryside for disabused city people in search of a more ‘down-to-earth’ lifestyle, politically, the specific problems of these areas remain acute – among them, the rarefication of state services, be it for health, education, transport, or many others. Women who need to travel more than 120 kilometres to give birth in a maternity ward that meets today’s standards are just one stark example. Read More
Even before the Covid pandemic has subsided, Europe is now facing another major shock in the form of the Ukraine war. It is threatening economic growth and jobs, and the accompanying soaring inflation is hitting low-income households especially hard. In all this, it is unclear how long the war will last and how drastic the restrictions on energy supply will be. Read More
The war in Ukraine can become the one where the two great global digitisation trends and social platforms measure their strength: techno-authoritarianism vs Silicon Valley. With an unprecedented number of online actors taking part in the confrontation, the
strategy of sowing a (dis)information chaos in the war in Ukraine is better equipped than ever. Read More
