New Intel revealed on the Wuhan lab responsibility for the spread of Covid-19

Written by Democracia Participativa on 04 June 2021. Posted in Toma nota.../Take note....

British intelligence services are now reportedly reassessing their position on the theory that COVID-19 leaked from a lab in China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology. A Sunday report from the Sunday Times of London quotes British spies who initially dismissed the lab leak theory, but now say it is "feasible. 

There might be pockets of evidence that take us one way, and evidence that takes us another way," the paper quoted a source as saying. "The Chinese will lie either way." Previous theories suggesting that the coronavirus jumped into people from bats via an intermediary animal have been debunked.»

The Chinese Virus scandal – New Developments

U.S. State Department warning: Don’t ‘Open a Can of Worms’ on the COVID-19 Origin.

Lab-Leak Bombshells Drop: Death Threats, ‘Cover-Up’ ...  and More. 

June 3.– Vanity Fair found evidence that some figures within the U.S. State Department did not want a complete investigation into the virus’s origins in early 2020; it appears to have found one of the smoking guns of this entire abominable story of the COVID-19 pandemic, suggesting that in early 2020, some corners of the federal government explicitly discouraged a full investigation into how the pandemic started:

A months long Vanity Fair investigation, interviews with more than 40 people, and a review of hundreds of pages of U.S. government documents, including internal memos, meeting minutes, and email correspondence, found that conflicts of interest, stemming in part from large government grants supporting controversial virology research led by Dr. Fauci, hampered the U.S. investigation into COVID-19’s origin at every step.

Principios generales de la Escuela Austríaca

Written by Democracia Participativa on 03 June 2021. Posted in Toma nota.../Take note....

Resumen de Eugenia Aldana de la charla impartida por Gabriel Zanotti [Video de la charla al final].

Escuela Austriaca de EconomíaGabriel Zanotti plantea la importancia de conocer la historia y principios de la Escuela Austriaca de Economía, así como a sus autores, quienes han dado valiosos aportes a través de cuantiosas publicaciones.

Menciona Gabriel que entre los grandes exponentes que dieron el primer paso de dicha Escuela está Carl Menger quien con base en elementos de conceptos filosóficos de autores alemanes, elaboró una teoría general del valor subjetivo.

Quería demostrar a los profesores alemanes que se podía hacer una síntesis de las corrientes alemanas e inglesas”.

La propuesta de Menger no fue bien aceptada, sin embargo, tuvo a dos importantes seguidores que fueron Friedrich von Wieser y Eugen Böhm von Bawerk quienes de alguna manera desarrollaron de manera más técnica la ley de utilidad marginal decreciente y productividad, que en Menger tenía otro enfoque más histórico y filosófico.

US National Debt Projected to Hit $41 Trillion by 2030

Written by Democracia Participativa on 31 May 2021. Posted in Toma nota.../Take note....

The wasteful policy that is traditional when the Democratic Party heads the government has been exacerbated beyond any reasonable limits in the first months of the current Administration, regardless of the tragic consequences of the economic collapse that will be inevitable sometime this decade if the accelerated public debt growth is not stopped in time before it becomes unpayable and causes the country's bankruptcy. According to the Manhattan Institute, the national debt will reach $41 trillion before 2030; while projections from Statista reach $40 trillion by 2031. So far, the national debt amount to nearly 70,000 US dollars per person in the United States."

Biden releases $6T budget that foresees decade of trillion-dollar deficits 

Washington DC, May 28.– President Biden on Friday proposed a budget that would entrench deficits in excess of $1 trillion for the next decade, pushing the nation’s debt burden to record highs.

The blueprint released by the White House ties together three major spending proposals already announced by Biden: the $2.3 trillion American Jobs Plan, the $1.8 trillion American Families Plan and $1.5 trillion in discretionary spending for fiscal 2022.

Council of Europe: On the way towards participatory democracy

Written by Council of Europe on 22 May 2021. Posted in Toma nota.../Take note....

The President of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities meets the President of the Conference of INGOs

Gerhard ErmischerAddress of Mr Gerhard Ermischer, President of the Conference of INGOs at the 131st Session of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe 

Strasbourg, May 22.– Congress President Leendert Verbeek, met with the newly elected President of the Conference of International non-governmental organizations (INGOs), Gerhard Ermischer, on 20 May 2021 to enhance co-operation between the Congress and the voluntary sector to promote active citizenship in political decision-making at local and regional level building on the Code of Good Practice on Civil Participation, a set of guidelines for NGO participation in decision-making processes.

Both Presidents stressed that, in this period of health crisis and mistrust of democratic institutions cooperation of INGOs and the Congress is more relevant than ever, as local authorities and civil society organisations are at the forefront of promoting democracy and restoring citizens' trust in politics, as they help to bridge the gap between politics and citizens. Building democratic societies is one of the main Congress priorities for 2021-2026, President Verbeek underlined."

The Congress of Regional and Local Authorities had previously adopted its priorities for 2021-2026 at its 40th session held online 23 to 24 March 2021.

Targeting Democratic Participation in the Arab World

Written by Arab Reform Initiative on 21 May 2021. Posted in Toma nota.../Take note....

The Arab Reform Initiative is an independent Arab think tank working with expert partners in the Middle East and North Africa and beyond to articulate a home-grown agenda for democratic change and social justice. It has no ties to any specific country and its work agenda and strategic orientations are decided by a Plenary composed of the directors of its 15 institutional members."

The Role of Petitions in Strengthening Citizens’ Participation in Morocco

Morocco’s 2011 Constitution introduced the right to petition public authorities as a tool to encourage and enhance citizens’ participation in the political process. This paper assesses the Moroccan experience by analysing the petitioning process, its constraints, and the opportunities it offers for advancing public interest. It also suggests recommendations to ensure petitions become a more effective role in entrenching participatory democracy in Morocco. Protester with a petition and a megaphone in Rabat

Rabat, May 19.– The 2011 Constitution paved the way for a new take on citizens’ participation in Morocco, carrying it to new heights by establishing new mechanisms that support citizens in their oversight of public policies, such as legislative petitions, which were anticipated to improve public action and bridge the gap between the citizen and the state. However, the practical legal and regulatory implementation of constitutional requirements, as well as the nature of the dominant political and administrative culture, have somehow constrained the acquisition of these tools and weakened their impact on dismantling the traditional course of action in public intervention.
