Democratic Citizenship: A Continuous Approach to Proportionality in Political ParticipationIntroduction 
Democratic citizenship is a fundamental concept that underpins the functioning of democratic societies. It encompasses the rights, responsibilities, and active participation of individuals in political and civic life. One of the critical aspects of democratic citizenship is ensuring proportionality in political participation, which means that all segments of society have an equal opportunity to engage in the political process. This continuous approach to proportionality is essential for maintaining a healthy, inclusive, and representative democracy.The Importance of Proportionality in Political Participation 
Proportionality in political participation ensures that diverse voices and perspectives are heard and represented in the decision-making process. This inclusivity is vital for several reasons:Legitimacy and Trust:When political participation is proportional, the decisions made by elected officials are more likely to reflect the will of the people. This enhances the legitimacy of the government and fosters trust among citizens.Social Cohesion:Proportional political participation helps to bridge social divides by giving marginalized and minority groups a platform to express their concerns and contribute to policy-making. This can lead to greater social cohesion and reduced conflict.Innovation and Problem-Solving:Diverse participation brings a range of perspectives and ideas to the table, which can lead to more innovative solutions to societal problems.Challenges to Proportional Political Participation

The Rise of Fragmentation - A...

Alessandro Gili, Filippo Fasulo

Multiple crises have shaken the foundations of the global economy, and the resulting instability has yet to recover. Instead, it has led to increasing fragmentation along political and ideological lines. The current geoeconomic order is increasingly defined by the use of advanced trade defense and economic security tools, such as tariffs, trade barriers, sanctions, and export restrictions, which have become more sophisticated. Major economies are adapting to this new reality by shaping their own definitions of economic security, particularly to safeguard critical and high-tech sectors. The EU, the US, and China are each calibrating their economic security strategies, seeking a balance between openness and protection that maximizes their respective advantages. However, in this shifting international landscape, new actors are emerging with the potential to influence the global balance of power.
What type of "new globalization" is emerging? Could economic security tools become the new normal in the global economy? What are the key economic security strategies adopted by the world's leading economies?

Proposed Roads to Freedom

Bertrand Russell

In this work, Russell presents his views on the problems of modern society and offers his proposals for a better future. He critiques both capitalism and socialism as inadequate solutions, and instead advocates for a system based on guild socialism, where workers control the means of production and are organized into functional groups. Russell argues that the ultimate goal of society should be the development of the individual, and proposes a society that is organized around individual freedom and fulfillment rather than material wealth. He advocates for the abolition of the wage system and the establishment of a system of economic cooperation and communal ownership. He also discusses the role of education in a free society, arguing that it should be aimed at cultivating creativity, critical thinking, and individuality. Read in English, unabridged.
