Democracy in... is a podcast that explores what democracy looks and feels like in different countries. Guess who represented Italy? Yours truly! Thanks to host Mary Leighton for making me feel comfortable speaking about something rather obscure to me, and thank you to fellow guest Piero Q P Carlucci for knowing everything I don't! Here's part 1 of the episode, part 2 follows: https://lnkd.in/eZeUzrri In part one we talk about how everyday voters navigate elections, given Italy's infamously complicated system of coalition politics and proportional representation. And we get a fresh perspective on an question this podcast has never quite been able to answer: what makes a ceremonial President any different from a Monarch? In Part Two Piero describes how Italy has fought back against the corrupting influence of organized crime on politics. And computer scientist Federica adds her expertise to the electronic vs. paper voting debate. We also hear about traditional forms of cooperative and democratic organization in Italian society that continue despite the breakdown in trust in national-level politics.

🇺🇸🚨The U.S. migratory policy focus should no longer be on ineffective policies of deterrence and enforcement. 🗳️As we approach a 2024 election year with #migration becoming a higher priority for voters in the United States, we must remember that “it’s a long-term game that certainly doesn’t fit on a bumper sticker for political campaigns,” as explained by WOLA's Vice President for Programs Maureen Meyer in our latest #podcast. 🎧Listen: https://lnkd.in/emsnHyCR

On this week's episode of Next Round podcast, David W. Higgins and I chat about how the UK general election campaign has been unfolding; national service is the big Tory policy offering to the young electorate. The UK Labour Party picks up significant business support. We look at how this compared to Sinn Féin in Ireland, which has traditionally lacked such support. Ireland’s far-right is a real movement, but the local elections might reveal it to be a movement absent from the doorsteps. We discuss this and the European elections which show increased support for right-of-government candidates. Finally, how can we all participate in stock markets? Ireland has a low participation rate relative to other countries (especially the US). Even in the US, stock ownership is tilted towards the top 1%.

On Sunday, July 28th, Venezuela's democracy faced another blow as fraudulent elections declared Nicolás Maduro president once again. The devastating consequences of this loss of democracy are evident as Venezuelan citizens continue to endure rampant violence, poverty, corruption, and a relentless erosion of basic human rights. This situation has become a significant international crisis, with over 7 million refugees and migrants fleeing Venezuela, marking the largest exodus in Latin America and one of the largest globally. Today, I write this post to help raise awareness about the critical situation in my country. Now more than ever, international support is crucial to protect the rights and lives of Venezuela's citizens.

The link below will take you to a very important episode of Intelligence Matters. In it, I talk with my good friend and Latin America expert Pedro Burelli about the current crisis in Venezuela -- a crisis borne of the largest election fraud I've seen in my 45 years of watching the world. Pedro explains why the resolution of the crisis matters to the United States and how the right resolution will require western leadership, including from Washington. I think this is a must listen episode -- if nothing else than to learn how Venezuela is run by a cartel that just happens to also be running a government. An amazing situation that needs to come to an end.
🚨 🎙 New Episode Alert: Host Michael Morell sits down with Latin America and Venezuela expert Pedro M. Burelli, Founder and Managing Director of B&V Holdings. Pedro provides his analysis of Venezuela’s recent presidential election, where President Nicolas Maduro claimed victory despite opposition tallies showing Edmundo González as the winner. Pedro provides historical context on Venezuela’s transition from a stable democracy to a “mafia state” under the Chávez and Maduro regimes. He also explains why stability and security in Venezuela are important to U.S. interests and the world. "They stole this election absolutely unabashedly. They realized they couldn't win it. There were disagreements within the regime of how to stop the election and the consequences of stopping the election. And, when they realized that the people would go out in mass voting, and it was very likely the result was going to match what all the polls were saying, they just simply went ahead and stole the election." - Pedro Burelli on the Maduro Regime #IntelligenceMatters #Podcast #LatinAmerica #Venezuela #ForeignPolicy Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/eksVsQRV
