📰 New Open Access Article by Ana Lopez Garcia: "Migrant Money and Political Unrest: Remittances and Support for Protest in Latin America and the Caribbean" 🌍💸 Can money from abroad fuel political unrest in migrant-sending democracies? 🤔 Ana Lopez Garcia's research shows that remittance recipients are as likely as non-recipients to support peaceful and lawful protests. However, they are more approving of citizens resorting to unlawful and violent protest behaviour. Statistical analysis reveals that support for violent protest among recipients is linked to their dissatisfaction with political parties and politicians. Discover how migrant resources shape political participation in developing democracies. 💭 Read the full article here! https://lnkd.in/eN8Zc_PB #PoliticalScience #Remittances #LatinAmerica #Caribbean #SocialUnrest #OpenAccessResearch

This is the effect of massive government, happening in every country of the world, and the United States leads in its desecration of limited government by usurpation of the United States Constitution. Elected and unelected bureaucrats are responsible for this devastation of liberty. Government is not a series of buildings, it is individual people making decisions to destroy liberty under the guise of ‘what’s good for them (you).’ Do not blame private enterprise for the failure of politicians to hold to the oath they take. The elected bureaucrats have created a 271+ unconstitutional federal agencies fifedom, to offer their patronage, rent seeking and favoritism. (Hence massive lobbying). Your local governments are no better as they tax and regulate you into poverty. Read: How Do I Tax Thee? by Kristin Tate and wake up!

What happened a decade ago had boosted the rise of the far-right party, AfD – the German-backed EU bailouts for Southern Euro-countries and the 2015 refugee crisis, with Germany taking in one million migrants. Today members of the AfD hold ethno-nationalist beliefs that see anyone with a migrant background as not "properly German" - even if they hold German citizenship. This prompts the allegation that the AfD wants to create a two-tier society, in which ethnic Germans would have more rights than naturalised citizens. The party will appeal against today's ruling. But the Federal Administrative Court in Leipzig will only focus on possible violations of any legal procedure, not the legal content of the ruling itself. It remains to be seen whether the ruling would translate into electoral gains for the AfD ahead of the June European Parliament elections. A number of scandals over a plan to deport non-native Germans, and clandestine activities like alleged spying for China and suspected links to Russia have rocked the country.
Far-right German party may threaten democracy, can be spied on, court rules
