Day-to -day racism / Jorg Dobereiner  

Public ISBD Titre : Day-to -day racism Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Jorg Dobereiner, Auteur Editeur : Bonn [Germany] : Engagement Global Année de publication : sept-oct 2021 Collection : D+C development and cooperation Importance : 51 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Politique sociale Tags : Racisme  Politique sociale Résumé : Racism is offensive and discriminating. Racists disregard human dignity, denying the fundamental principle that all people are of equal value, enjoy equal rights and deserve equal opportunities. Although this principle should be general consensus, racism persists in all world regions. It has many harmful impacts – not only on individual victims, but on entire societies. Systemic racism means that members of certain communities – for example, those with darker skin colours – stay poorer than those of other communities and do not get the same opportunities in the education system, employment or the housing market. Often, the legal system puts them at a disadvantage too. In particularly bad cases, deadly violence is perpetrated by the police, whose official duty is to „serve and protect“.

Fiscal space in polycrisis / Jorg Dobereiner  

Public ISBD Titre : Fiscal space in polycrisis Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Jorg Dobereiner, Auteur ; Marva Khan, Auteur ; Roselyn Davina Vusia, Auteur Editeur : Bonn [Germany] : Engagement Global Année de publication : jan-fév 2023 Collection : D+C development and cooperation num. 50 Importance : 43 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Fiscalité Tags : Fiscalité  Migration  Mouvement sociaux Résumé : Our era is one of unprecedented market failure. Global heating and the erosion of ecosystems result from buyers and sellers not bearing the costs that the external impacts of their self-serving transactions cost. The consequences are endangering our species’ future. Governments must thus regulate markets, invest in eco-friendly infrastructure and, where possible, repair damages. Some still believe that markets always deliver the best results, so government interventions must be limited to the bare minimum. This distorted worldview has been very powerful since the early 1980s. Back then, Britain’s Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was a protagonist of the paradigm shift towards the “small” state. Now the short tenure of Liz Truss in the same office may prove to be another turning point. In Thatcher’s tradition, Truss wanted to impress financial markets by cutting taxes. To provide essential services, she planned to increase sovereign debt. She hoped that policy would attract investors to Britain. Instead, the markets she wanted to please rejected her reckless approach.

How to end hunger / Jorg Dobereiner  

Public ISBD Titre : How to end hunger Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Jorg Dobereiner, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef ; Francisco Mari, Auteur Editeur : Bonn [Germany] : Engagement Global Année de publication : novembre/décembre 2022 Collection : D+C development and cooperation num. 49 Importance : 43 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Développement  Tiers monde  Faim  Agriculture Index. décimale : 06.01 Développement - Généralités Résumé : All countries, rich and poor, are currently groaning under the weight of high food prices. Not only are households forced to turn to cheaper, less healthy food; the poorest in society face a truly existential threat: the number of people starving in the world started to rise again in 2020. Some high prices are only indirectly due to food shortages; the major drivers are food speculation and high fossil fuel prices. Solutions are needed for this. After around two years of coronavirus pandemic, the monthly food price index published by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) showed a year-on-year surge of more than 30% at the end of 2021. This came after nearly ten years of relatively stable prices. The FAO index is based on the international prices of meat, dairy, cereals, sugar and vegetable oils. While rice and sugar prices showed only a moderate rise, the price of vegetable oils doubled.
