This is a report issued by the Independent Commission for Sustainable Equality, European Parliament, S&D Group on 27/10/2021 Among its most game-changing recommendations are: • A fundamental reform of public policy at national and European levels in the economic, social and ecological spheres by anchoring policy-making and public budgeting to essential well-being goals, instead of GDP. • A change of gear at European level in defining legally binding sustainable goals, rules and norms to change the basic terms on which our economic system operates, including a European Responsible Capitalism Act, an EU-wide Anti-Poverty Law, and a Biodiversity Law. • A change of gear at global level with regard to multinational companies through a legally binding United Nations Convention on Social Responsibility • A reform of national social welfare systems into a new generation of social-ecological welfare systems, in order to protect citizens from future climate change consequences in material and health terms.
This volume examines whether the Arab Uprisings introduce a replica of the European Enlightenment or rather stimulate an Arab/Islamic Awakening with its own cultural specificity and political philosophy. By placing Immanuel Kant in Tahrir Square, Cairo, this book adopts a comparative analysis of two enlightenment projects: one Arab, still under construction, with possible progression toward modernity or regression toward neo-authoritarianism, and one European, shaped by the past two centuries.
