The U.S. elections in Chinese media: The fragmented ‘American dream’ ‎and China’s rise

President Trump’s attempts to compromise the election results and the unprecedented assault on the Capitol gave China once again a chance to highlight the supposed superiority of its own political system and point out the inherent failures of democracy. News about electoral scandals along with the U.S. fiasco in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic thus largely… Continue reading The U.S. elections in Chinese media: The fragmented ‘American dream’ ‎and China’s rise

Bezmoc liberálnej demokracie?

Preniknutie výtržníkov do amerického kongresu a neschopnosť Západu poradiť si s pandémiou sú darom z nebies pre propagandu autoritárskych režimov. „Milujeme vás, ste špeciálni,“ dušoval sa v krátkom príhovore k výtržníkom, ktorí prenikli do washingtonského Kapitolu, odchádzajúci prezident USA Donald Trump. Udalosť, keď pre agresívny dav vzbúrencov muselo dôjsť k prerušeniu osvedčovania výsledkov amerických volieb, je jedným z najvýraznejších offline symptómov pretrvávajúcej… Continue reading Bezmoc liberálnej demokracie?

Šinzó Abe končí vo funkcii japonského premiéra. Dôvodom sú zdravotné problémy, o ktorých sa špekulovalo už od júla, keď údajne vracal krv. Úrad vlády však vtedy tieto informácie dementoval a Abeho zdravotný stav označil za „absolútne bezproblémový“. Špekulácie však po opakovaných lekárskych vyšetreniach pokračovali a v piatok japonské verejnoprávne médium NHK prinieslo informáciu o tom, že Abe odstupuje. Premiér to neskôr potvrdil… Continue reading Abe končí ako japonský premiér. Ostanú po ňom dôležité dohody aj nenaplnené sľuby
