Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Yao, Alexandra Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022-09-20 Description An account of the resource In 2003 Yukos, the largest private oil company in Russia at the time, was in the middle of merger talks with ChevronTexaco and ExxonMobil, an unprecedented deal which would have created the largest oil company in the world. The other shoe dropped when later that year, Yukos CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky was arrested on charges of tax fraud. Yukos was sold for parts in court-mandated auctions and through a series of manoeuvres, eventually acquired by state oil company Rosneft. Since Yukos was auctioned off at staggeringly low prices, Yukos shareholders suffered a tremendous loss of capital and have since appealed to the international courts. For nearly two decades, the shareholders and the Russian government have continued to overturn and reinstate compensation rulings of a $50 billion payout in international courts. My research question is: what are the implications of the recent constitutional changes on authoritarian constitutionalism in Russia and judicial pragmatism between the RCC and the state? This paper is threefold: In Part I, I trace the authoritarian constitutionalism balancing act in Russia since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. In Part II, I trace key developments of the Yukos trials and the immediate responsive constitutional changes in Russia to argue that the Yukos trials were the elephant in the room in major Russian Constitutional Court (RCC) decisions. In Part III, I illustrate the severity of the recent constitutional changes in Russia for judicial independence. I argue that the constitutional changes accelerated by the Yukos trials have offset the RCC’s balancing act of judicial pragmatism with the state by formally erasing the separation of powers between the executive and the judiciary.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Havel, Sean Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022-12-23 Description An account of the resource The increasing number and severity of security crises around the European periphery have called into question the preparedness and capability of European states. Civil wars, mass migration, unstable institutions, and direct kinetic conflict are features of a degrading security order in which European states must provide a strategic response. One such response has seen the European Union (EU) become increasingly involved in security issues, namely the defence industry. Programs such as the Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO) are now enabling Member States to organize civil-military responses to crises and coordinate the defence-planning cycles of 25 European countries through the EU. This article examines why Member States have begun to use the EU to develop military capabilities and assets at scale. Furthermore, it investigates the role of differentiation in enabling these developments and how both individual geopolitical and economic factors contribute to this collective institutional development.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ghosh, Debanjali Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022-09-20 Description An account of the resource Ever since the start of the Syrian Civil War in 2011, Europe has experienced a huge influx of refugees, which has led to demographic and social changes and created fears about the erosion of the European civilisation and Christian values. The Continent has also experienced several Islamic terrorist attacks- like those in Paris, London, Brussels and Berlin. This, coupled with the rise of the right-wing in Europe, has led to increasing xeno-racism, particularly of an Islamophobic variety that has resulted in the creation of an environment of intolerance and exclusion. At times this has manifested itself as outright hostility towards the Muslim community through hate crimes which take the form of physical and verbal attacks on visibly identifiable and more tangible symbols of Islam like hijabs, headscarves, burkhas and mosques. Yet, most of these hate crimes remain unreported and unaddressed. The European Union (EU) is a one of a kind post-modern entity professing values of equality, democracy and human rights. Given this commitment, this paper attempts to take stock of the EU’s response to rising xeno-racism with particular attention to Islamophobia and the Member States’ attempts to grapple with the same.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Macdonald, Douglas Bidordinova, Asya Khachatryan, Avet Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021-04-27 Description An account of the resource Policy makers in federated countries and the EU seeking to reduce total greenhouse gas emissions face a challenge when emissions are rising in some subnational jurisdictions. The magnitude of that challenge is influenced by the portion of total emissions represented by those jurisdictions, the rate of change in that portion, and the political power of those jurisdictions. This phenomenon is examined by a comparison of the role of rising-emission jurisdictions in the EU and Canada. We define a “rising-emission jurisdiction” as one in which emissions were higher in 2018 than in 1990, regardless of how its emissions may have risen or fallen between those dates. Those findings show that the role of rising-emission jurisdictions must be added to the factors identified in the literature explaining why between 1990 and 2018 EU emissions have declined by 25% while Canadian emissions have increased by 21%. To better understand this phenomenon and to help policy makers cope with it, more research is needed on its influence in other federated countries.   Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ojs.library.carleton.ca/index.php/CJERS/article/view/2770 10.22215/cjers.v14i2.2770 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Centre for European Studies, Carleton University Relation A related resource https://ojs.library.carleton.ca/index.php/CJERS/article/view/2770/2891 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2021 Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2020): Carbon Politics in Canada and Europe: Coping with Jurisdictional and Interest Diversity; 79-101 2562-8429 10.22215/cjers.v14i2 Subject The topic of the resource Canada Euopean Union subnational member state rising greenhouse gas emissions Central Governments in Multi-level Governance Systems Facing the Challenge of Jurisdictions with Rising Emissions Title A name given to the resource Central Governments in Multi-level Governance Systems Facing the Challenge of Jurisdictions with Rising Emissions Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed Article Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Schott, Stephan Schreurs, Miranda Alice Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021-04-27 Description An account of the resource Canada and Germany are both pursuing major energy transitions and far-reaching climate programs but differ in terms of policies towards some energy sources and their preferred policy instruments. Both countries have committed to large scale emission reductions despite the challenge of regional divestment from fossil fuels: hard coal in North Rhine Westphalia and the Saarland; lignite in the Rhineland, on the German-Polish border in the Lusatsia (Lausitz) region, and in central Germany; coal in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia; and oil in Western Canada. We contrast the current Pan Canadian framework (PCF) on Clean Growth and Climate Change to the German Climate Law and the European Green Deal setting targets to become climate neutral by 2050.  Germany has plans for a dual phase out of nuclear energy by 2022 and coal by 2038. In contrast, Canada differs by province in terms of policies on fossil fuels and nuclear energy.  Both are leaders in renewable energies, but differ in the type of renewable energy which dominates. We further examine the international action components of the PCF and its implications for collaboration with Germany and the EU.  We discuss potential partnerships and strategic alliances between Canada and Germany in the context of their mutual interest to enable an energy transition and to lead to the implementation of the Paris agreement for climate change action.  We identify political challenges within each federation, and especially the approach to impacted coal regions in Germany and Poland as well as the Canadian oil sands.  Barriers to progress for meeting identified targets and timelines are considered. We conclude with insights on the possibility and likelihood of linking policies and regulatory measures across the Atlantic, and the political threats of advancing towards decarbonization and an energy transition away from fossil fuels in each jurisdiction.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021-04-27 Description An account of the resource ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IN RECENT BRITISH AND CANADIAN ELECTIONS               The 2019 elections in Britain and Canada illustrate the difficulties in communication between a concerned public and prospective office-holders on the most critical set of issues of our times.  An increased level of public awareness and concern about the state of the environment has been expressed in public opinion polls, social movement activity has increased, and Green parties have expanded their appeal.  Despite these developments in recent years, environmental issues have not been able to exert a major impact on individual voting behaviour in elections, or on overall election outcomes.  Issues related to the environment are usually treated, by both politicians and the public, in valence terms.  Valence issues are ones upon which there is broad consensus about the goals of public policy, and political debate focuses not on "what to accomplish" but rather on "how to do it" and "who is best able."  Regarding the environment, general formulations like global warming and climate change prompt politicians to offer concerned rhetoric and engage in virtue signaling, but specific policy proposals are often absent.                 This paper examines four reasons why environmental/climate change issues did not have a major impact on the 2019 Canadian and British elections. First, environmental concern in society at large was imperfectly translated into election issues.  Second, the major political parties produced inadequate and unconvincing environmental manifestos.  Third, environmental issues were not central to most voting decisions. Fourth, environmental issues had limited impacts on election outcomes.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lederer, Markus Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021-04-20 Description An account of the resource The idea of a green deal transforming industrialized societies’ climate policies in a sustainable manner has become highly popular in various countries. The study takes up this notion focusing on climate policy initiatives in Canada and the EU, raising three interrelated issues: (i) on a descriptive level, the study asks where we stand and what has so far been achieved regarding climate policy; (ii) analytically, the study provides a theoretical explanation of why progress has been slow in the EU and hardly visible in Canada, making use of the concept of carbon democracy; (iii) on a prescriptive level, the study explores what will be needed to make a green deal successful, arguing that one has to accept that a green deal is a deeply political project that will create winners and losers and that not all losers can be compensated under the label of a “just transition”. The argument advanced is that the EU and Canada represent a form of carbon democracy in which the extensive use of carbon laid the foundation for establishing democratic institutions and strongly shaped them. The paper shows that the extensive influence of carbon-related activities not only empowers specific non-state agents but is rather deeply enmeshed in the societal and political genome of both regions’ polities. The claim that follows is that climate politics in Canada and the EU will have to be deeply transformative and therefore disruptive in order to be successful.   Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ojs.library.carleton.ca/index.php/CJERS/article/view/2763 10.22215/cjers.v14i2.2763 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Centre for European Studies, Carleton University Relation A related resource https://ojs.library.carleton.ca/index.php/CJERS/article/view/2763/2884 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2021 Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2020): Carbon Politics in Canada and Europe: Coping with Jurisdictional and Interest Diversity; 9-28 2562-8429 10.22215/cjers.v14i2 Subject The topic of the resource Green Deal Carbon democracy Canada EU Climate Change Title A name given to the resource Climate Change Politics in Canada and the EU—from Carbon Democracy to a Green Deal?

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Benz, Arthur Broschek, Jörg Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021-04-27 Description An account of the resource Transforming the energy system towards an increasing share of renewables requires a significant change of a policy to redirect the path-dependent evolution of a highly complex technical system. Moreover, a new path of development towards energy provision from renewables has to be stabilized to assure sustainability. The federal systems in Canada and Germany diverge in the institutional conditions relevant for policy change and stability. Canadian federalism separates powers in energy policy and allows the federal and provincial governments to change policies on their own. In contrast, German federalism requires co-operation between federal and Länder governments which favors policy stability but renders significant change unlikely. However, energy transformation started in the 1990s in Germany under conditions that allowed the federal government to avoid the usual mode of joint decision-making. In Canada, provincial governments took the lead in energy transformation, when the conservative federal government showed no interest in intergovernmental coordination. The article explains these shifts in power within the institutional framework. It also discusses the consequences, considering the stability of transformative energy policy. In Germany, policy change from the center undermined the stabilizing structures of intergovernmental coordination, in Canada, institutional conditions favoring continuity never existed. Hence in both countries, governments changed policies but failed to reform institutions of governance.
