The Arctic region is warming much faster than other parts of the world. Nordic countries—Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden—have a reputation for being at the forefront of efforts to combat climate change. But does their track record also extend to helping people who have been displaced by environmental impacts, internally and internationally? In this episode, we discuss the impacts and responses in the Nordic region. Our guests are the researchers Miriam Cullen and Matthew Scott, who are among the leaders of the Nordic Network on Climate Related Displacement and Mobility.

Jamie McGoldrick speaks with Dr. Francis Deng. He has served in the United Nations as South Sudan's first independent ambassador and spent time as Special Adviser for the Prevention of Genocide. He's also served as Ambassador of Sudan to Nordic Countries, Canada, and the United States and Minister of State for Foreign Affairs. Francis has written and edited dozens of books, including “War of Visions: Conflict of Identities in the Sudan.” Jamie and Dr. Deng discuss conflict and crises in Sudan and South Sudan. Dr. Deng explains issues in South Sudan and offers what he believes are solutions to improve the lives of people in the country. Jamie asks him about the civil war in Sudan. Dr. Deng says there are flaws in how the international community approaches the conflict in the country, and he argues for a more nuanced approach to finding a resolution. Dr. Deng also offers criticism of UN peacekeepers and the role they've played in the region.

It is 25 years since the euro was first introduced. Finland has used it from the start, and Denmark has pegged its krone to it. But Norway and Sweden have had floating currencies since the early 1990s. In this Nordea On Your Mind podcast, Johan Trocmé and Viktor Sonebäck review how the different Nordic economies have been affected by currency. Are they happy with the outcome? What currency will they use in the future, and why?

Giovanni Marbese, or Gio, as I know him, is an Italian food anthropologist and owns Tone Bread Lab, an experimental bakery in Milan. It's a funny story how I know this guy. I was staying in Milan, close to the bakery, a year ago and a friend recommended I go there for breakfast. I went in and ordered a coffee and a pastry and there was one table open to sit and I sat down and the Slippurinn book I co-authored just happened to be sitting there. Aside of it being me that sat there, this is an Icelandic cookbook on the table of a bakery in Milan. Think about that. Then, I was in Iceland this past July and I went to Slippurinn, the restaurant from the book, and Gio was there and I got to know him better. He has done a lot of work with food in the Nordic region, so it wasn't that odd that he was there, but, another strange coincidence. Anyway, Gio has worked with Slow Food within the Ark of Taste project for years. It's an online catalogue of endangered food around the world, and he was also co-coordinator of the Nordic Countries communities of Slow Food. He has come up with all sorts of creative ideas about safeguarding cuisines and disappearing ingredients and foods that are disappearing. Tone is an offshoot of that. He regularly uses endangered ingredients and inside the bakery he has this traditional Georgian bread oven, called Tone. We discuss everything he has going on at the bread lab, as well as everything else he has going on, like the Milano Food Project, Phantom Bread and Food Emotions.Read more at New Worlder.

Es ist einer der Megatrends des 21. Jahrhunderts: der demografische Wandel. Wir schauen uns zunächst globalgalaktisch an, warum auch Länder wie Bangladesch unter 2 Kindern pro Frau liegen und wieso die Weltbevölkerung ab 2080 schrumpfen wird. Außerdem müssen wir mit ein paar Mythen aufräumen: zum Beispiel mit dem sogenannten Pillenknick und oder den Babyboomern, die zwar viele waren, aber deren Eltern nicht besonders viele Kinder hatten. Im zweiten Teil der Folge zoomen wir in die eine Seite der Medaille des demografischen Wandels. Die niedrige Geburtenrate. Welche politischen Maßnahmen sorgen dafür, dass Frauen mehr Kinder bekommen wollen? Elterngeld? Kinderbetreuung? Rollenbilder? Und selbst wenn wir die Frauen überzeugen: was ist eigentlich mit den Männern? Im Funfact wird aus der demografischen Frage eine demokratische: was macht das mit unserem System, wenn in den 2030ern in einigen Bundesländern mehr Menschen mit Pflegestufe leben als unter 30? +++ Zusatzteil: Das Buch zum Podcast erscheint Ende Juli als kostenloses E-Book und Anfang August als Print im wbv-Verlag überall im Buchhandel. Ich erzähle euch, was euch erwartet und wie ihr mich unterstützten könnt, ohne Geld in die Hand zu nehmen: fragt doch mal bei euren Büchereien und Bibliotheken nach, ob die nicht ein Printexemplar kaufen wollen :-) Zum Buch mit dem Titel "Die kalendarische Altersgrenze im Rentensystem: Gleichheit oder Willkür" geht es hier +++ Ausgewählte Quellen in der Folge: Schulz, Stefan (2022): Die Altenrepublik.

The blasphemous conference "Jesus loves LGBTQ," that was held recently at a large Church in Stockholm, challenges us all to do something about the creeping development of moral decay that has taken place even among Christians over the past 50 years. We need to help each other set a new standard, to create a new trend of sexual purity and holiness by the standard of heaven, that can hasten the coming of Messiah. This will require a change of lifestyle in obedience to God's Word, to not conform to the world (Romans 12:2) and "fleeing sexual immorality" (1 Corinthians 6:18)! *** PRAYER TOPICS 1. Pray for a longing among Christians to set a new trend and become examples of purity and holiness! ”Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God” (2 Pet 3:11-12). 2. Pray that Christians no longer conform to the world! ”Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect” (Rom 12.2). 3. Pray that Christians flee from everything associated with sexual immorality! “Flee from sexual immorality” (1 Cor 6:18)! 4. Pray for the mobilization of ten thousand prayer warriors for revival in the Nordic Countries! ”Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, commanded you, ‘Go, gather your men at Mount Tabor, taking 10,000 from the people of Naphtali and the people of Zebulun. … Zebulun is a people who risked their lives to the death; Naphtali, too, on the heights of the field” Jdg 4.6; 5.18. *** LARS' WEBSITE: http://larsenarson.com *** SUPPORT THE MINISTRY: http://thewatchman.org/donate *** JOIN the Nordic prayer movement https://Norden714.com *** SUBSCRIBE YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/LarsEnarson... *** iTunes PODCAST: https://itunes.apple.com/se/podcast/l... *** ODYSEE VIDEO: https://odysee.com/@LarsEnarson #Prayer #Preaching #BibleTeaching #prophecy #revival #EndTimes #Israel #Jerusalem #LarsEnarson #watchman #Sweden #Scandinavia #norden714 #Jesus #Christ #Yeshua #Bible #bibleproject #prayeralert #schoolofprayer

Steve Killelea, an Australian national, is the Founder and Executive Chairman of the Charitable Foundation and the Institute for Economics and Peace. He had a successful career as an IT innovator and global philanthropist.  In the pursuit of peace, he launched the Institute for Economics and Peace and the Global Terrorism Index. He has worked closely with Rotary International and the United Nations, two of the premier organizations striving for a more prosperous, equitable and peaceful world.  He maintains that peace is a hard-to-describe transformational concept that can be defined simply as an absence of violence and fear of violence. The economic cost of violence to GDPs around the world is estimated to be in the tens of trillions of dollars.Examples of the most peaceful countries would include Iceland, some of the Nordic countries and New Zealand. The USA and China are ranked in the mid-range, whereas some of the most violent are Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.

A new Justice Visions miniseries on historical truth-seeking initiatives in the (post-)colonial state, will look into formal and informal truth initiatives in European countries dealing with settler and overseas colonial legacies. In this miniseries co-hosted by Dr. Cira Pallí-Asperó, we pick up on some of these debates to explore how different actors are engaging in truth-seeking initiatives and what this means for the domain of transitional justice. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Malin Arvidsson, a commissioner at the Swedish Truth and Reconciliation Commission for Tornedalians, Kvens and Lantalaiset, about a number of state-sanctioned historical truth-seeking initiatives that have taken place in the Scandinavian context. The goal of these commissions was to examine the impact that assimilation policies of the Scandinavian welfare states had on indigenous peoples in those countries. The colonial past is a corrosive component in the relations between the former colonizing powers and their colonial subjects, particularly over issues of historical responsibility of recognition and redress of colonial injustices. Although the demands to redress historical injustices linked to colonialism are not new; since the Black Lives Matters movement took over the streets in 2020, they have taken a renewed spotlight in the public and political debate. Within this framework, the transitional justice paradigm is increasingly being used to think about historical injustices, as historical truth-seeking initiatives within the post-colonial context (both formal and informal) are increasingly using the logic and rhetoric of transitional justice; for instance, by systematically referring to its core objectives in their mandates (i.e., truth, accountability, reparation, non-recurrence). But how are these transferred to the post-colonial context? and what are the implications thereof? As Malin points out, this raises key questions: “(…) if you talk about historical injustices in this long-time perspective, what are even the actors that we are looking at, because for example, the state and the Church of Sweden has an intertwined history.” Awaiting the results of this ongoing process, one of the main contributions foreseen is building a strong archive that is essential for follow up by policy makers, civil society: “what will remain is an archive of interviews, research reports (…) that have been commissioned by the commission that can serve as a basis for further advocacy and claims-making.”

En lytter har bedt meg kikke på en ny nordisk studie som har sett på risikoen for ulike blodsykdommer etter AstraZeneca-vaksinen og de to mRNA-vaksinene. Jeg tar også for meg en ny studiet som har forsøkt å estimere hvor mange liv covid-vaksiner har reddet globalt. En annen lytter (?) har også sendt meg en mail hvor han mener vi må ta folk som identifiserer seg som katt like mye på alvor som de som identifiserer seg som et annet kjønn enn det de ble tildelt ved fødsel. Men er de to situasjonene egentlig sammenlignbare?

Australia's housing affordability crisis results from over- reliance on just two options – private home ownership and private renting. To tackle it, a wider repertoire of policies is required. Nordic nations' widespread provision of public housing and housing co-operatives, priority for homes to live in rather than invest in, and effective reduction of homelessness, show how this can happen.This was recorded on 3rd May 2022 and things may have changed since recording.The Australia Institute // @theausinstituteHost: Ebony Bennett, Deputy Director, Australia Institute // @ebony_bennettGuest:Andrew Scott, Convenor, Nordic Policy Centre at the Australia Institute // @ascottnlightsProducer: Jennifer Macey // @jennifermaceyEdited by: Holly ForrestTheme Music: Pulse and Thrum; additional music by Blue Dot Sessions

Diane Ravitch är professor i utbildningsvetenskapen och en av världens mest kända skoldebattörer. Efter att ha varit vice utbildningsminister för både George H. W. Bush och Bill Clinton gjorde Diane en tvärvändning och började rikta skarp kritik mot testning och konkurrens som medel för kvalitetshöjning i skolan. Hon driver nu en mycket framgångsrik blogg där hon skriver om det privata friskolealternativet som ett hot mot det offentliga skolsystemet och demokratin. Läs hennes blogg här: https://dianeravitch.net/ Vad finns det för maktdimensioner i skolsystemet? Vilka konsekvenser får det ”fria” skolvalet för dem med sämst förutsättningar?

The only thing that matters is that parents are making a choice and it doesn’t matter if it as good choice or a bad choice”  ”The big problem [with privatization] is that it is very inegalitarian… Privatization benefits some and harms many others… The privatization is a rejection of democracy” ”Very wealthy people have always chosen to send their children to private schools, but at their own expense… What is new today is that public should pay for all these separated kind of education” ”I always thought that Sweden, like Switzerland and like the Nordic Countries, is being very social conscious and very aware of the state’s obligations to its citizens”  ”The free market actually promotes inequality and today in the United States we have the most income inequality and wealth inequality probably in our history” ”We have to look out for the least of us, we have to look out for the people who have nothing, who have no choices and make sure they are well served” ”I think choice is a delusion and choice is selfish” 

May-Len Skilbrei er professor i kriminologi ved Universitetet i Oslo. Tidligere har hun jobbet i mange år i instituttsektoren, både i FAFO Institutt for arbeidslivs- og velferdsforskning og i det som i dag heter velferdsforskningsinstituttet Nova. May-Lens første forskningsinteresse var prostitusjonsforskningen. Siden 1990-tallet har hun studert kvinners erfaringer med prostitusjon og med kontroll- og hjelpeapparatet som er knyttet til prostitusjonen. Ettersom prostitusjonsmarkedet endret seg, førte denne interessen henne over i forskning på menneskehandel, som igjen førte henne videre over i forskning på migrasjon og innvandringspolitikk. For tiden handler forskningen hennes mest om temaet seksuell vold som politisk felt og rettsområde. Det får du vite mer om i denne episoden.

The Nordic countries, and especially Scandinavia – Norway, Sweden, and Denmark – are often viewed as relatively similar, with robust welfare states, high standards of living, gender equality, and of course beautiful nature. But the coronavirus pandemic has revealed how different they really are. Therese Sefton from PRIO and Amy Clotworthy from the Center for Healthy Aging at the University of Copenhagen have started to analyze what has happened over the last year, and share some of their impressions of how and why the countries' approaches have differed.

An ageing population, immigration, tax evasion and incoming foreign workers are frequently cited as threats to the Nordic Model. The universal welfare state is built upon citizens and the state fulfilling their particular roles: the state providing childcare, healthcare and benefits in return for people working and paying their taxes ('the social contract'). But don't these roles require a lot of national regulation? And what happens to them when globalising forces (such as the arrival of workers from overseas, Europeanisation or international financial markets) hit?In this podcast, we get to hear about some specific challenges which exemplify the overall context of how big and small crises have affected regulation in the Nordics. The podcast was recorded in October 2020 at the annual conference of the  Danish European Community Studies Association.

This week I had the absolute privilege of speaking to Thomas Bjorkman, entrepreneur, businessman, author and also the founder of the Oak Island retreat in Sweden.Tomas explains how Oak Island is modelled on the original retreats that were state funded across the Nordic Countries at the turn of the last century - also captured in his book ‘The Nordic Secret’. It was these retreats that helped instil the human capabilities within the population to face adversity and uncertainty at that time, and which saw those Nordic countries turn around and flourish socially and economically.Tomas then introduces the 5 clusters of human capabilities that are key to facing the unknown, complex and volatile world we’re faced with – Openness, Perceptive Taking, Sense Making, Inner Compass and Compassion.In this conversation, we go on to explore the depths of the shifts that we're experiencing right now to our collective imaginary in an interconnected world and how this can only be facilitated, it cannot be managedThe focus of this conversation will be challenging to your own sense making and aspects of how you construct reality for yourself. Yet despite this Tomas points to a way forward that is beautifully grounded and human.

After successfully building businesses over the last twenty-plus years, Marcia Moran thought she had life by the tail. Little did she know what was in store. Marcia has written over fifty business plans, and helped entrepreneurs strategize over how to differentiate their companies in changing environments. After helping other entrepreneurs start their companies, she decided to found her own business consulting practice, Performance Architect, in 2012 and co-founded Positive Business DC that same year. She suffered a major stroke in 2014. Marcia applied her skills in planning and strategy as she strived to become whole. She never gave up. Over time she learned to walk again, but Marcia struggled with aphasia, a language disorder. She joined Toastmasters International® hoping to regain her speaking abilities. It helped some, but in August 2017 she discovered a technological breakthrough that minimized her speaking disability. She then pushed beyond her comfort zone to become a Toastmasters International Club Officer in 2017, then Area Director in 2019. Marcia created Stroke FORWARD because she felt there is a need to share hope to stroke survivors and their caretakers. Learning to become her own health advocate one step a time and exploring holistic methods for healing are keys to her recovery. Marcia speaks and shares her message of hope, inspiration, healing, and a way forward as she goes across the country. She welcomes new opportunities to help individuals affected by major health crises move ahead. Marcia lives with her husband Jim, two very loud cats, and two birds near Washington, DC. Jim played a role of caretaker and advocate. His observations and experiences are also captured in Stroke FORWARD. On weekends, Marcia, Jim, and the cats go to Deep Creek, Maryland where Marcia paints watercolors. In the evening Marcia and Jim sit out on the deck and watch fireflies flit by. Marcia holds a B.S. in Political Science with a magna cum laude from the University of North Dakota and a Master’s in Business Administration, from Chapman University, in California. A woman of many talents, she attended school in Sandefjord, Norway to study art. She also earned a certificate in Well-being Foundations of Personal Transformation from the Personal Transformation and Courage Institute in Virginia.

Many have highlighted the need for equity and justice in the field of foreign aid and humanitarian assistance. Local civil society organizations (CSOs) or non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are the frontline workers, risking their lives to access areas that well-funded international NGOs or even UN agencies cannot access. However, critics of the current system claim that the local NGO is often the sub-contractor and not a real partner that is allowed to contribute to the design of the project. If something goes wrong in the process, that local NGO is blacklisted, not the UN agency or the international NGO that received the funding. There are also other concerns. For example, the local NGO rarely receives a decent overhead rate or adequate funds to cover operational expenses. Local NGO staff are also often poached by multilateral institutions and international NGOs. All of this, some claim, results in a serious and systematic erosion of capacity in the Global South. And local knowledge and organizational capacity are often undervalued.Degan Ali has for long spoken out against systematic racism – the systemic structure of power, money, and decision-making that goes into the design of the international humanitarian and aid architectures. She has campaigned for a more just and dignified aid system that allows recipient countries to take back power. In a recent op-ed, she argued that “Talking about racism is not enough” and that “We can’t afford another 50 years of apathy in the international system.”Degan Ali is the Executive Director of Adeso, an organization that has been a leader globally and in Somalia for its work on cash transfers and environmental justice. She has been a passionate advocate at the global level on the mainstreaming of cash as the primary response mechanism to humanitarian crisesResources"'We are demanding change': the Somali woman taking on international NGOs", The Guardian, March 2016"Is it finally time for the localization agenda to take off?", Devex, June 2020"Opinion: 'Accelerate your commitments' during COVID-19— an open letter to donors", Devex, April 2020YOUTUBE VIDEO: Imagining and creating a decolonized world with racial and economic justice at its core, webinar hosted by Intersectional Feminist Foreign Policy(IFFP) and AdesoNetwork for Empowered Aid Response (NEAR)Degan Ali on TwitterDan Banik on TwitterIn Pursuit of Development podcast on TwitterQuestions, comments and suggestions: InPursuitOfDevelopment@gmail.com 

At the start of the 20th century, the Nordic Countries were some of the poorest in Europe, with the lowest quality of life. By the end of the century they were some of the wealthiest and best places to live in the world.   Why and how? According to philosopher and social entrepreneur Tomas Björkman, the reason is that they paid attention to inner development, more than outer growth, in a huge cultural project of personal growth.   He argues that the pace of change that we are going through now requires a similar focus on the techniques of development.   You can also become a Rebel Wisdom member, for many benefits including our regular Q&As with the interviewees from our films, check out: https://www.rebelwisdom.co.uk/plans

As the US approaches the half-million mark of # of people infected with covid-19, Chris shares his personal regimen for keeping his immune system elevated. This is NOT personal medical advice, though Chris shares the research results supportive of his regimen. Meanwhile, the damage to the global economy continues to amplify. In China, half a million companies have closed already. In the US, over 16 million people have filed for unemployment. And the response from US central authorities is staggering in scope. $Trillions and $trillions in stimulus is now flooding onto the stage. Will it rescue the companies and households that are suffering? Time will tell. Though it's an easy bet to predict that the larger and more powerful parties will fare much better than the average joe. Chris points out how the decision-makers within Congress and the Fed don't fathom (or more accurately, can't fathom) the magnitude of the steps they're taking. The sums are just too big. What ripple effects will this drastic action have for our currency's purchasing power? To the already terrible wealth gap in this country? Again, time will tell.

Årets utdelning av Guide Michlinstjärnor bjöd på en hel del spännande nyheter. Jag pratar med Gwendal Poullennec, internationell direktör, Rebecca Burr, chefredaktör på Michelin Nordic Guide, Jonas Lagerström och Danny Falkenman på restaurang Etoile samt matskribent Mattias Kroon, som reflekterar över Guide Michelin i allmänhet och den nordiska guiden i synnerhet.

We are happy to present the first episode in English and we start with Anna Maria Orrù who is an architect and researcher within the biomimicry field. She is one of the initiators for this discipline in the Nordic counties, and after talking to her we want to tag along. Cause if you think about it, it would be absolutely stupid to not look for solutions to today’s problems in nature. Even the most successful R&D-departments are actual rookies if you compare to natures 3.8 billion years in progress. Anna Maria Orrù Website Report, Biomimicry in the Nordic Countries  

In the first Episode of Series 2 of our podcast looking at research emerging from the Equal Lives project, we talk to Marika Jalovaara from the University of Türku in Finland and Anette Fasang from Humboldt University in Berlin about their research, Family Life Courses, Gender and Mid-Life earnings. The research explores whether the reputation of Nordic countries for having family friendly policies  that create a fairer and more equal society is deserved. Using register data from Finland, the researchers look at the earnings of adults based on their family lifecourse and reveal 2 groups of young adults who should be a focus for policy makers and researchers going forward.   

As the 33rd edition of the International Book Fair of Bogotá, Colombia, quickly approaches, Sandra Pulido Urrea, director of the book fair, visited the Nordic Countries, countries guest of honor in the upcoming fair, and shared with us the developments of this great upcoming feast of books and knowledge.  With themes on the table such as culture for a sustainable future, a new educational forum, a wide array of Nordic authors and Colombian publishers investing in Nordic translations and translations, the book fair will take place from the 21st of April to the 5th of May.

Leslie Palti-Guzman exchanges with Carolyn Kissane, the Academic Director of the graduate program in Global Affairs at New York University and a professor of geopolitics of energy and environment. Carolyn and her students are just back from a research trip in Norway and Denmark where they examined the Nordic countries' model of energy transition. Carolyn and Leslie discuss electrification, role of governments and private sector, financing, transportation and power sectors, and environmental opposition to transmission lines. The chat on personal trajectories include playing a role model for women students and an inspiring segment on being true to your own style and personality (e.g. natural curly hairs rather than blow dry).

In this episode, the Edifice of Trust host, Victor Bolles, discusses if social democracy is the right political system for America. An analysis of why social democracy has been so successful in the Nordic Countries and an investigation if this success could be recreated in the United States.

SHOW #268 The Year of the Pig, the TRUTH about Socialism in Nordic countries and AOC

A recent opinion poll shows that more than 90% of Estonians consider the cooperation with the Nordic countries important or very important. But are the Nordic countries still role models? Should the cooperation be modernized, and if so, then how? What could Estonia offer for future cooperation? Could this region get its voice better heard internationally if the cooperation with the Nordic countries would be even closer than it is today?

Í hlaðvarpi vikunnar ræðir Sigrún við David Reimer, professor í menntunarfélagsfræði við háskólann í Árósum. David hefur stundað rannsóknir tengdar menntun um árabil og beint sjónum að ójöfnuði í menntun, og þá sérstaklega hvernig hann getur skapast þegar nemendur færast frá einu menntastigi yfir á annað. Þau Sigrún ræða um menntakerfið á Norðurlöndum, hvað við vitum um ójöfnuð í menntun bæði á Norðurlöndunum og utan þeirra, og hvernig ólík skólakerfi búa til ólíka möguleika fyrir nemendur, til dæmis út frá því hversu lengi nemendur geta valið ólíkar námsleiðir. Þessi umræða á sérlega mikið erindi við íslenskt samfélag í augnablikinu þar sem mikið er rætt um skólamál almennt og aðbúnað kennara og nemenda. In this week's podcast, Sigrun discusses with David Reimer professor of sociology of education at Aarhus University. David has done research on education for years and focused on educational inequalities, and especially how it is created when students move from one educational stage to the next one. The two of them discuss the Nordic educational system, what we know about educational inequalities both in the Nordic countries and outside of them, and how different school systems create different opportunities for students, for example regarding how long students can select different courses of study. These debates are especially relevant for Icelandic society at the moment as discussions about schools in general, and the conditions of the educational environment are heavily debated.

This book, edited by Dr. Gerstenfeld analyzes the attitude of Nordic countries toward Israel and the Jews. In the past decades, many pioneering efforts to demonize Israel have come from elites of the Nordic countries. The motifs of this anti-Israelism are similar to those of classic anti-Semitism, of which it is a new mutation. Such highly discriminatory prejudices are in particular expressed in Norway and Sweden by leading socialist and extreme-leftist politicians as well as journalists, clergy and so-called humanitarians. Behind the Nordic countries' appearance and oft-proclaimed concern for human rights lurk darker attitudes. This book deals mainly with lifting the humanitarian mask as far as Israel and Jews are concerned. This disguise hides many ugly characteristics such as false morality, a pretense of superiority, as well as profound humanitarian racism.
