Barely a decade ago, the far-right Dansk Folkeparti (“Danish People’s Party”) was polling as high as 25 percent nationwide, but today Denmark’s far-right parties are largely excluded from direct parliamentary influence. The right’s policies on migration and integration have been largely adopted by the Social Democratic-led government, however, bringing far-right politics into the Danish political mainstream while the far-right itself is caught in a long and messy process of splintering, regroupment, and ...

The aggressiveness of the United States in a context of intertwining economies
Since his return to power in January 2025, Donald Trump and his government have triggered multiple instances of outrage and coercive measures on an international scale and in particular vis-à-vis countries or regional organisations previously considered as allies: Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and of course the European Union (EU). Apart from the words and the abandonment of the rhetoric of human rights – which the West has held dear for ...

Die Europäische Union (EU) versucht, sich gegenüber den USA und China als imperialistische Macht zu positionieren, während Russland zwar militärisch stark, aber wirtschaftlich weniger einflussreich ist.
Die hässliche Fratze des Imperialismus tritt offen zutage: Nicht nur politische und wirtschaftliche Macht, sondern zunehmend auch militärische Stärke entscheidet über den Zugang zu Märkten und Rohstoffen. Technologische und industrielle Entwicklungen beschleunigen diesen Wettstreit und sind selbst zu einem Schlachtfeld im weltweiten Wirtschaftskampf geworden – genauso wie der ...

A new study comparing Germany to Estonia, Spain, and Finland
Germany’s education policy has faced scrutiny ever since the results of the very first PISA survey were released in 2000. The report revealed that academic success in Germany fell below the OECD average and was more strongly contingent upon a student’s socio-economic and family background than was the case in any other participating country.

Per Clausen, Member of the European Parliament for Danish left-wing party Enhedslisten looks at the programme of Denmark’s EU-Presidency, which begins on July 1. What are the prospects, priorities and problems of the upcoming Presidency, and what does it mean for progressive policies in Europe and the interests of the working class? At first glance, the prospects are grim: a deliberate lack of leadership; an accommodation to the centre (and far) right; and a prioritisation of business interests over social justice and the environment....
