Der im Februar 2022 begonnene russische Angriff auf die Ukraine und die daraufhin von der EU erlassenen Sanktionen stellen die Unionsgerichte erstmals vor die Notwendigkeit, über die Zulässigkeit von restriktiven Maßnahmen gegen Medienangebote zu entscheiden: Denn die EU hat in diesem Rahmen auch die Verbreitung des Programms von russischen Staatssendern verboten, die in jüngerer Zeit offensiv ihre Verankerung in der Medienlandschaft der EU-Mitgliedstaaten betrieben haben. Das Gericht sieht diese Maßnahmen der Union im Ergebnis zu Recht als zulässig an; die Grundrechtsfähigkeit solcher Staatssender wird dabei allerdings zu Unrecht als unproblematisch vorausgesetzt.

This article reinforces the criticisms I cast on civil resistance literature in my study "Debunking the Myths Behind Nonviolent Civil Resistance" through addressing issues on how scholars code violence, unarmed violence, and nonviolence. It justifies studying unarmed violence as a sole category and explicates the pathways through which unarmed violence can lead oppositional campaigns toward success. In responding to Onken, Shemia-Goeke, and Martin, the article demonstrates that the dichotomization of nonviolence and violence is not premised on analytical equivalency and should be avoided if the study of resistance strategies is to progress onward and step away from the literature's intrinsic ideological bias. There is nothing idealistic about seeking to improve how we operationalize concepts to study resistance strategies, but if scholars in the civil resistance literature fail to move away from universalistic assumptions about nonviolence and social change, they will continue to misinterpret historical processes and produce policy suggestions that are neo-colonial in nature.

O ensaio busca analisar o romance O pai da menina morta (2018), de Tiago Ferro, considerando o modo como a pandemia de Covid‑19 modificou o livro, trazendo à tona as relações entre natureza, tragédia e capitalismo.

Modernity and education have always been a double-edged sword for Māori. On the one hand Māori have embraced and co-opted new knowledge since encountering and engaging with missionaries, traders, officials and school teachers, but this pursuit has also entailed engagement with institutions that have imperilled their reo, mana, and tikanga. One could argue that this is as true now within what is termed the "mainstream" education system as it was in its earlier missionary and colonial antecedents. Hēnare Wiremu Taratoa was a product of the missionary education system. This essay explores a number of his late-1850s writings on the schooling he experienced, and his ideas on the value of education and modernity.

The present study is based on the relationship between philosophy and literature with Nietzsche and Kafka as the main authors studied. The central question of this study is how to comprehend some of Nietzsche's philosophy in Kafka's literary pieces? In this way, the goal is to analyze a potential reading of the concepts will of power and nihilism. The text's proposal develops in two moments: characterizing Nietzsche's philosophy with the will of power and nihilism concepts as main points of the books considered as "mature" written by this author and presenting Kafka's piece Carta ao pai as an alternative to overcome nihilism with the main starting point being the relationship between will of power and art characterized by a determined period in Nietzsche's philosophy as active nihilism. Thus, the text primes at developing not just a descriptive analysis through bibliographic research focusing on the cited manuscripts, but also searching fundaments to arguments made by some commentators of both authors in specific points.

O artigo, construído em formato de carta, se inspira na realidade de muitas mulheres de nosso país. Aborda a experiência de abandono paterno de uma filha que, a partir do seu contato com teorias feministas, percebe e questiona as consequências da falta de paternagem ao longo de sua vida. Em busca da construção e da ampliação de uma consciência feminista, a carta apresenta um conjunto de reflexões direcionadas ao pai, morto recentemente vítima da COVID-19, e a outros homens. A reflexão perpassa às diferenças de classe, raça e gênero de forma interseccionada, aborda o cotidiano da reprodução da vida e ressalta a importância dos feminismos, enquanto posicionamento político, para a construção de relações mais igualitárias e justas. Conclui-se ressaltando, entre outros aspectos, a urgência de que homens assumam e compartilhem as responsabilidades no que se refere ao cuidado das crianças e do lar. Palavras-chave: paternagem, reprodução da vida; patriarcado; consciência feminista.

Este é um estudo de caso qualitativo, realizado em 2018 numa cidade do interior mineiro, num Centro de Atenção Psicossocial para adultos, com o objetivo de analisar os papéis ocupacionais de um familiar, cuidador principal de um filho com esquizofrenia. Utilizou-se a Lista de Identificação de Papéis Ocupacionais e entrevista semiestruturada para coleta de dados e aplicada a análise de conteúdo temática. Observou-se impacto nos papéis ocupacionais do pai ao tornar-se cuidador, em razão da sobrecarga emocional, social e financeira vivenciada durante o processo de cuidado e pela burocracia da administração pública. Os papeis de cuidador, membro de família e passatempo se apresentaram como presentes e possíveis de seguirem no futuro. Ser cuidador de uma pessoa com transtorno mental mostrou acarretar a perda de vários papéis ocupacionais.

On April 8, 2021, the Grand Chamber of European Court of Human Rights delivered an eagerly awaited judgment in the case of Vavřička and Others v. The Czech Republic. It addressed the question of mandatory vaccination in the light of the right to respect for private life under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).

On June 13, 2021, the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) delivered a judgment in Fedotova and Others v. Russia. The ECtHR found that Russia was in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) for not allowing same-sex couples to have their partnerships legally recognized. The decision reflects the ECtHR's firm position: the formal recognition of partnership shall not depend on the partners' sex, and the complete exclusion of same-sex couples cannot be justified with opposing public sentiments or the need to protect traditional families. While the Fedotova ruling is the first judgment that challenged the discriminatory legislative framework in a country belonging to the Eastern Bloc of the Council of Europe, it is not unprecedented. In its judgment, the ECtHR applied the standards entrenched in the case law on the rights of same-sex partners and, although it did not address the issue of marriage equality under Article 12 of the ECHR, it did conclude that the applicants' rights under Article 8 had been violated.

In February 2021, the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) ruled in favor of Germany in the case Hanan v. Germany, concerning a 2009 NATO airstrike in Kunduz (Afghanistan) resulting in the deaths of many civilians.
