What I think would clear up a lot would be that the duopoly of the two parties would be finally broken. But Americans simply believe in the impossibil...
And my questions are: 1) How are these stakeholder groups decided? 2) Once decided, can these stakeholder groups be changed? And when, in what time? W...
The EU is a de facto confederation of independent states, which desperately tries to be an union. Perhaps something similar to the US by some visionar...
You hardly wan't to answer my questions, I guess. Well, I could have given the example of the whole Brexit thing...and not silly walks. But what's not...
As this is a philosophy forum, let's think about this from the beginnings and from the theoretical approach, not so much as from the legal approach. F...
Yes, manufactured by Ukrainian volunteers at the start of the war when Russian forces were still racing for their initial objectives. Nothing instills...
Yes, it's a proposal. But just how rigid the stakeholders are is in my view a relevant question. The actual upper house of the UK Parliament, the hous...
Nations that have called themselves socialist and democratic have been typically dictatorships. Isn't that exactly what existing democracies are about...
Tomorrow the French ambassador should be expelled from Niger. The junta gave yesterday the French ambassador 48 hours to leave. https://news.nbs24.org...
Somehow I have the feeling that Russians are quite used to this. During the Soviet Union a Russian would talk and behave quite differently when in his...
That's your personal view. How about cooperatives, public companies? So I guess you are then the dictator that decides just who get a "stakeholder pos...
Enlightenment has still a road to go, that's for sure. I think one of the worst things is when politicians use the superstitions of the people to back...
Isn't everything collapsing? EU was collapsing...at least so said many American commentators. UK was collapsing...again Scotland is thinking about ind...
Ummm....Romania is part of the EU. It and Bulgaria have been EU members since 2007. What Romania isn't is part of the Schengen treaty and in the Euro-...
Modern legal systems don't actually have any problem with this: If a witch-doctor is cruel to animals, hurts other people or somehow creates huge anno...
Isn't that group forming, which is even encouraged, basically the function of political parties? And just what means "on an issue to issue basis"? Som...
Tax laws just like laws in general don't have same results in different societies. Hence it's not just to change the laws if you have severe problems,...
(a late response) It is interesting to see how the Baltic States and other Eastern European countries will change through time. Because now those who ...
I think the most important thing to really understand is that Russia is an Empire. The whole idea of Russia is that it is an Empire. Russian's cannot ...
That genuinely doesn't come at all to the reasons why Finland became and industrialized country from being a poor hinterland of Europe. But it suits p...
What's wrong with money? Are you going to centrally plan what people want and what manufacturers produced or what? Hows that going to work? And how ar...
Well, my country (Finland) never had colonies, it basically was a colony of Russia and earlier part of Sweden. South Korea was under Japanese rule for...
Because it's a good marker when the country is really, really poor. Famines happen in societies which are fragile, for example there are many subsiste...
For Ukraine, the situation is like the US when facing Saddam's Iraq in Kuwait, but without any or little air power and far less troops and ground equi...
Right, what should be happening globally. Well let's start with that. At first a question for you: do you think that historical examples of how now mo...
The rigid birth control was introduced in the late 1970's, so that was later. Yes, central planning and the "Great Leap" are culprits, but then again ...
Really, is it a pathetic improvement that there hasn't been a famine in China in the last 50 years, but before that there indeed were? (Those who don'...
Post-WWII history in China was a bit different to Western history. And you seem to look at the West, which in fact doesn't have the poorest people. Bu...
In Niger it's still not over and the bickering between France and Niger has continued: 1. Niger's military junta wants the French ambassador to talk w...
When you widen the viewpoint to let's say 50 years (1970's to 2020's) or more, the changes have been dramatic. Earlier there were widespread famine in...
Why not? It has happened. That it has happened in India and in China are really game changers, because we are talking about a huge segment of World po...
Afghanistan was a real tragedy. First, perhaps it would have been too much to ask from any US administration (Dem or GOP) simply not to attack Afghani...
A German documentary on the occupation / de-occupation of the city of Kupyansk. Kupyansk is close the Luhansk. Hence this is more "Russian" parts of U...
Stop right there. It's about limitations in mathematics. To talk about "certain classes of consistent system" can mislead someone to thinking Gödel is...
Ah, you mean like Trump wasn't fumbling in his Presidency with his administration just waiting for the next thing he would say, but it all was just 4D...
Anyhow, the whole Wagner mutiny was an epic disaster and a loss of face for Putin. It's not a show of strength that Putin kills now the Wagner leaders...
Well, once there's sound and agreed upon evidence of a conspiracy, it actually becomes a fact. And then the much hated "mainstream media" takes it as ...
Actually, it has been the Department of State, not the CIA, which at the present has been most successful. And of course there really are NGOs, or sim...
Or if Ukraine is in NATO, that would be a guarantee that Russia doesn't the war after rebuilding it's offensive capacity. As you write, the whole war ...
How so? With Crimea, Russia can easily block (as it does) sea routes Ukraine is quite dependent, as we have seen. You see, the route from Odessa and o...
That's actually from Putin's firm ally, Belarus. And people there not being happy about their leader. But now I guess everything is fine. If Ukrainian...
There are no and never have been any grass roots opposition movements in Russia and it's near abroad. None. Everything is CIA/Western backed covert op...
If either France or the US will say by a high ranking diplomat or official that Wagner and Russia has been involved, that surely would show that they ...
Especially post-WW2 Cold War got world politics to look to be two sided. Now it's really getting back to being multipolar. Also in the way that so-cal...
