Its specific features are: an unprecedentedly strong influence, an obvious trend towards the moderate line, horizontal collaboration to expand its reach, and a very adept use of social media networks. The refugee crisis has given the far right an historical opportunity. The rise has also had a profound effect on European politics; it has deepened the political divide inside EU member states, and shaken up the traditional political values and the foundation of the union.The rise of the far right will likely not change Europe's political landscape, but problems of EU governance over its handling of the refugee crisis cannot be ignored.展开更多

Crocker Range Park is the largest state park in Sabah state, Malaysia. Since there is a village community living within the boundary of the nature reserve, the state government and the villagers have had a conflict over the land rights. Until the government and the village delegation reached an agreement on the park's management plan in 2015, three actors intervened in the conflict: PACOS Trust, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), and Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (JOCV). In this study, these interventions by different actors were analyzed with the Tripartite Conflict Management (TCM} model. The results indicate that JOCV was the sole actor that was able to communicate with both the state government and the villagers. To support the result, a preliminary research was conducted, and the villagers' perception was investigated through a questionnaire survey. This paper concludes that JOCV was perceived as an actor that can be trusted more than JICA and the state government. This conclusion supports the result of the analysis of TCM model.展开更多
