In this episode of Policy Voices, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with Alberto Alemanno, Jean Monnet Professor in EU Law at HEC Paris, Founder of The Good Lobby, Trustee of Friends of Europe and 2014 European Young Leader (EYL40), about the “horse trading” that delivered Europe its new Commission. This conversation was recorded before the Parliament finally confirmed the last seven commissioners-designate putting and end to the deadlock. It is the end of an era. As the new European Commission is all set to take office on 1 December, prepare to say goodbye to the majority that has been governing Europe for decades. As Alemanno puts it, the European People's Party (EPP) wants to have its cake and eat it: it is being supported by the historical alliance of the Socialists, Liberals, and even the Greens, while slowly but steadily shifting to the far-right. The new team of commissioners features as an Executive Vice President Raffaele Fitto who hails from the far-right European Conservatives and Reformists and the EPP has already voted with the far-right block in setbacks to the green agenda.

Adrian Weckler, Technology Editor with the Irish Independent, discusses the EU Digital Commissioner sending a letter to Elon Musk to remind the X boss of his obligations under EU Law.
Prof. Tobias Lock gives a detailed examination of the constitutional and legal processes behind German reunification to highlight the substantial legal challenges that Irish unification would entail. Similar to German reunification, achieving Irish unity would necessitate negotiations at multiple levels: domestic, bilateral, and international, including with the EU. This process would involve integrating two distinct legal systems, addressing issues ranging from the routine to the contentious. Although the specific issues will differ between Germany and Ireland, Prof. Tobias Lock argues that the legal techniques used in Germany, such as frontloading, transition periods, and conflict rules could also be effectively applied to Irish unification. About the Speaker: Tobias Lock is a Professor of Law at Maynooth University and the founding director of the Maynooth Centre for European Law. From 2020-2023, he held the Jean Monnet Chair in EU Law and Fundamental Rights. Originally from Germany, Prof. Lock previously taught at the University of Edinburgh. His research focuses on EU constitutional and fundamental rights law, comparative constitutional law, and the relationship between EU law, domestic law, and international law. He is an EU law adviser to the Scottish Parliament and a member of the Royal Irish Academy's ARINS project.
It wasn't as bad as every poll predicted but, nonetheless, ¼ of the next European Parliament will be made up of, to put it mildly, “parties that are difficult to qualify under one label”. As Alberto Alemanno, Jean Monnet Professor in EU Law at HEC Paris and Founder of the Good Lobby, says, in this episode of Policy Voices hosted by Catarina Vila Nova, “far-right does not do justice to all of them”. Some are “nationalist”, others “sovereigntist”, and others yet are “rebellious vis-à-vis the European process”. Clearly not the ideal composition for a European Parliament. The good news? “They tend to be disunited but they're not going to be able to form a majority or come together as a group. This weakens their ability to influence as much as they could”, predicts Alemanno. If you want to comment on this episode you can send us an e-mail: press@friendsofeurope.org
The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haksins, and Chris Talgo present episode 453 of the In The Tank Podcast. The European Union recently passed a law that would essentially mandate many of the guidelines and metrics of the ESG scheme we have talked much about on this show. You might ask, "Who cares about Europe?" Unfortunately, the way this Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive is written, it has the potential to fundamentally transform the way businesses around the world operate. It is imperative we get this message out to the public and to lawmakers to protect America from this dangerous law.PRIMARY TOPIC - RADICAL NEW EU LAW WILL FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM AMERICA Fox News - Europe is hell bent on forcing US companies to go woke and it has a new law to do just thathttps://www.foxnews.com/opinion/europe-hell-bent-forcing-us-companies-woke-has-new-law-just Western Journal - Europe Just Approved the Worst Communist Law Ever - How It Affects Youhttps://www.westernjournal.com/europe-just-approved-worst-communist-law-ever-affects/ SECONDARY TOPIC - EU ELECTIONS SHIFT TO RIGHT WSJ - Europe's Ascendant Right-Wing Parties Want to Remake the EU.

The Agents Angle - The World's Premier Football (Soccer) Agent Show
A shocking admission on 'The Agents Angle' this week, which acknowledges the possibility of 'some' logic and 'method in the madness' of FIFA with the FFAR and the cap on agent commissions. Could the increasing US influence on the world of football also be reflected in a changing mindset & approach from FIFA, not least the move of FIFA's agent and legal division to Miami which has led to numerous resignations and departures from FIFA? We also revisit the 'Relevent' case in the USA, and the huge ramifications which that could have for FIFA and agents around the world. Also, how some 'agents are now viewed as more important than football directors', and a sporting director recruiting a whole team without calling a single agent.

How can the E.U. respond to the growing clamor for more citizen participation in its institutions? In a wide-ranging podcast, the Jean Monnet Professor in EU Law, Alberto Alemanno, proposes a permanent European Citizens Assembly to bring E.U. voters and their representatives closer together. The HEC professor also explores how lobbies can become a force for promoting social change. He also points out structural problems within the E.U. which are stymying the continent's youth.

In this ClimateGenn episode I am speaking with Jojo Mehta, Executive Director of Stop Ecocide International about the positive news that the European Parliament is proposing to include Ecocide in EU Law, an important development in the course to have this vital legislation enshrined in international law. [Support this channel and access episodes early by joining up on Patreon or Youtube] For those that are not familiar with Ecocide it has this simple definition: Ecocide means unlawful or wanton acts, committed with knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of severe and either widespread or longterm damage to the environment, being caused by those acts. A law of Ecocide was first proposed by the late Polly Higgins and it is fantastic to see the progress the organisation is making in fulfilling its objectives. Outlawing environmental destruction is a critical part of how we as a species, reassess our relationship with nature, in the face of climate and ecological breakdown. In the next episode I am speaking with David Spratt, Research Director, Breakthrough National Centre for Climate Restoration, in Australia about his new article on reclaiming the Climate Emergency. Thanks for listening.

In today's episode, we interview Jenny Orlando-Salling. Jenny is a PhD Fellow in Law at the University of Copenhagen. Originally from Malta, Jenny has lived, studied and worked in a number of countries eventually settling down in Copenhagen, Denmark where she raises her children. Prior to her PhD, Jenny served as a diplomat in Brussels (at the EU) and Egypt. She holds degrees in Law and Political Science from UCL and the LSE. We talk about her career path, and how she returned to academia after a number of years in the foreign service. We also zoom in to her PhD program, which is combined with an LLM, and the structure of this program, as well as its requirements with regard to courses, teaching, international fellowship, and other milestones in the program.Jenny's research focuses on colonialism in EU Law. We learn about how her experience as a diplomat shaped her research interests, as well as how the experience of always being on-call as a diplomat influenced how she set boundaries around work when she returned to academia. Jenny is currently pregnant with her third child and has two daughters (a four year old and a 10 month old). She is married. We learn about her experience as an academic parent, and the differences in support she experienced as a new parent in the foreign service and as a parent pursuing a PhD at a university in Denmark.To round off, we learn her best advice for PhD students, how Jenny sets boundaries to her work, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on her research and PhD, and what a day in the life looks like for her.ReferencesJenny's TwitterReimagining a European ConstitutionUnderstanding Identity and the Legacy of Empire in European Constitutionalism: The Case of Hungary

On Oct. 17, the Council of the EU approved a law to improve gender balance on corporate boards. The development comes 10 years after the European Commission first proposed the rules, and occurs at a time when many companies face pressure to increase diversity on their boards and management teams. In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we look at what the new law means for companies, investors and women. "If we want to be sure that women have equal rights, but also if we want to ensure that companies have the best potential leads in their executive committee and their boards, you really need to tap into all talent," Hedwige Nuyens, Chair of European Women on Boards, a lobby group, tells us. In the episode we also talk to Miriam Marra, Associate Professor of Finance at Henley Business School in the U.K., who explains the role of gender quotas in improving gender balance on corporate boards. And we speak to Martin Winner, Professor for Business Law at the Vienna University of Economics and Business, who tells us how the new law could encourage EU countries lagging on board diversity to take action. We'd love to hear from you.

Dr. Antoine Duval sheds light on the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and how much restructuring is needed for athletes to have better representation in the world of international sport. In this episode, we talk about… An overview of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and its general mission How athletes competing at the international level provide a strongly influenced consent to arbitration The issues of transparency and independence at CAS and why it needs to be fundamentally reshaped How the appeals process works in CAS and examples of high profile cases Case disputes between an Olympic host city and the International Olympic Committee The burden of proof athletes bear to get a favorable decision from CAS and reverse anti-doping bans What a better structure for CAS might look like in the future Memorable Quotes: “...it became quite clear to sports governing bodies at the international level, that trying to insulate themselves as much as possible from national courts, and European courts, was a necessity to protect their regulatory monopoly…” "We have no idea how much money is coming in, how much money is coming out, where it's going, we don't even know how many people are employed. We don't even know, on a yearly basis, how many cases are decided...we know very little about the institution.” “I'm just saying that we should be sure that the people that are taking those decisions are dependent and have accountability towards those that are affected by the system...the process...needs to be transparent, needs to be visible to all it needs to lead to a global discussion about this issue.” Guest Bio: Antoine Duval coordinates the research strand on advancing public interests in international and European law. He is a Senior Researcher at the Asser Instituut since February 2014 and defended his PhD at the European University Institute in Florence in September 2015. His thesis dealt with the legal interaction between the Lex Sportiva (the private regulations governing international sports) and EU Law. He is the founder and editor-in-chief of the ASSER International Sports Law Blog, founder and editor of the Yearbook of International Sports Arbitration, and a member of the editorial board of the International Sports Law Journal and International Sports Law book Series of Asser Press. His research focuses on the role of private actors in transnational law, using the lex sportiva as his main case study.
