The electoral system in the United States needs a redesign, says political reformer Andrew Yang. Exposing the flaws of a system built on poor incentives, he proposes a cost-effective overhaul inspired by primary elections already working in places like Alaska and advocates for ranked-choice voting, where voters can choose candidates in order of preference regardless of party, stemming the influence of extreme ideologies.

The filibuster started as an accident. Today it lets the losers rule Congress.

The US Senate is supposed to pass laws. But today, it’s broken. And it’s broken because of something called the filibuster, which has been part of Senate tradition for over 200 years. But the filibuster came into being by accident. And today, some politicians are suggesting we should get rid of it entirely.

Journalist and commentator Brad Polumbo has expressed disappointment at American politics descending into “kindergarten” after both sides called out the presidential candidates as “weird”.

Mr Polumbo said it is “laughable” the most powerful people in America are going back and forth like children.

“It’s name-calling, juvenile insults, and it doesn’t even make sense because, let’s be honest, there are a lot of weird people in politics,” he told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio.

Earlier this week, while speaking at a gathering of Black journalists, former President Donald Trump questioned Vice President Kamala Harris’ racial identity. Laura Barrón-López speaks with Peniel Joseph, founding director of UT Austin’s Center for the Study of Race and Democracy, about the history of Black identity, race and racism in American politics.

Trump Speech Today | Trump Speech Live | Trump News | Trump Speech Today Live | Trump Live | N18G

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump questioned whether his Democratic rival Kamala Harris is "Black" during a contentious appearance at the country's largest annual gathering of Black journalists on Wednesday (July 31).

"Is she Indian or is she Black?" Trump said of his opponent in the presidential race, drawing a smattering of jeers from an audience of about 1,000 people. "She was Indian all the way, and all of a sudden she made a turn and became a Black person."

Harris, whose mother was Indian and whose father is Black, is the first Black and the first Asian American U.S. vice president.

Far right and conservative accounts on social media have spread misinformation questioning Harris' racial identity.

Harris has long self-identified as both Black and South Asian American.

Since launching her White House campaign earlier this month, Harris has faced a barrage of sexist and racist attacks online, while Republican Party leaders have urged lawmakers to refrain from personal attacks and focus on her policy positions.

The panel interview started on a tense note, when ABC News reporter Rachel Scott asked Trump to explain why Black voters should support him despite a history of racist comments.

Trump's remarks have sparked discussions among political analysts and commentators.

Professor Ian Shapiro introduces the class “Power and Politics in Today’s World.”
This course provides an examination of political dynamics and institutions over this past tumultuous quarter century, and the implications of these changes for what comes next. Among the topics covered are the decline of trade unions and enlarged role of business as political forces, changing attitudes towards parties and other political institutions amidst the growth of inequality and middle-class insecurity, the emergence of new forms of authoritarianism, and the character and durability of the unipolar international order that replaced the Cold War.

Populist and far-right parties may gain more influence in European policymaking over the next five years, as early results from the EU election on Sunday indicate a shift in the parliamentary landscape.

Voters across Europe cast their ballots on June 9, the final day of voting, in an election for the European Parliament. In a shift from issues such as the cost of living, farm policies, climate change, and so on, that have traditionally dominated the electoral discourse in the 27 member states of the bloc, the polls this year saw the Israel-Hamas war and the larger Palestine issue take centre stage. The war has divided the more than 300 million voters between the right and the left amid polarised politics and increased nationalism. While politicians from left-wing parties have been vocal about Palestine in election campaigns, EU lawmakers from right-leaning political groups including the union’s chief Ursula von der Leyen have taken either a cautious stance or refrained from commenting on the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

Margot Wallström describes the changing role of women in the EU.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margot Wallström:

Margot Wallström was born on 28 September 1954 in Sweden. She entered politics shortly after graduating from high school in 1973. She worked as an Ombudsman for the Swedish Social Democratic Youth League. Then, in 1979, she was elected as a Member of the Swedish Parliament where she served for six years.

Her ministerial career began in 1988 when she was appointed as Minister of Civil Affairs – Consumer Affairs, Women and Youth (1988-1991). She later served as Minister of Culture (1994-1996) and Social Affairs (1996-1998).

In 1998, she retired from Swedish politics to become Executive Vice-President of Worldview Global Media – an NGO based in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

The following year she was appointed as Member of the European Commission, under President Romano Prodi, and given responsibility for EU environmental policy.

In 2004, when the Barroso Commission took office, she became Commission Vice- President with responsibility for Inter-institutional Relations and Communication.

Margot Wallström has received honorary doctorates from Chalmers University, Sweden (2001), Mälardalen University, Sweden (2004) and the University of Massachusetts, Lowell (2005).

Other distinctions include being voted "Commissioner of the Year" by the European Voice newspaper in 2002.

In 2004, together with Göran Färm, Member of the European Parliament, she published the book “The People’s Europe or Why is it so hard to love the EU?” (“Folkens Europa eller Varför är det så svårt att älska EU?”).

In 2010, she was appointed U.N. Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSCRIPT:

Question: What role do women play in EU politics?

Margot Wallström: Well actually we managed to increase the women representation in the parliament. So it went up with 4%. So at least that was a positive sign. But, you know, women make up 52% of the population of Europe, but they are only represented to 30% as members of the European parliament. That is too low! And even if it went up to 34% this is still so bad.

That’s why you often can see it in these so-called family photos from the Summit Meetings and saw black suits and ties. Sometimes of course you see Angela Merkel or Tarja Halonen, the Finnish president, but it is really something that I don’t think will make women very motivated or interested. Maybe anger which could be a good thing if they mobilize that sort of anger to say, “Well we really have to get into politics or we have to change this situation.” It means also that the issues that women care for and the problems that women have including pure discrimination when it comes to the big wage gap still existing, or violence against women, or a number of other issues—they are not addressed properly. So we cannot trust that the majority of men will put this on the agenda. So I think it is so important to change. I was engaged in a debate called 50/50 Democracy EU, which was a way to help to mobilize interests in changing women’s representation.

During the European Politics and External Relations Master's programme you will analyse politics, governance and power in Europe. The programme focuses on the European challenges as part of an increasingly globalized world. Both internal and external dimensions on EU policies will be addressed such as the economic crisis, security challenges, environmental issues, the refugee crisis, the rise of populism and trade.
