Yle: “The end of democracy does not require civil war” – expert explains why German intelligence wants to classify AfD as far-right
CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans Jakob-Schindler quoted: “The constitution includes measures to intervene in the activities of radical parties, because Germany has dark memories of the Nazi era, when the far-right rose to power in democratic elections. In Germany, it is known that the end of democracy does not require civil war. Democracy can be weakened, and it can also be driven down by democracy's own tools, says Schindler.”

Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
