SUMMARY:State Leadership On Affordable Housing And Sustainable Urban Development
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]While global challenges are addressed by national governments\, increasingly subnational actors such as states\, communities\, and cities have to take action when traditional nation-states have been unable to make progress due to political polarization and partisan gridlocks. This trend has also characterized transatlantic relations and the German-American partnership. The German-American State Legislator Dialogue focuses on the role of state representatives from both countries in addressing common transatlantic challenges at the state and local level. \nIn recent years\, many cities in Germany and the United States have experienced dramatic increases in real estate values such that affordable housing is no longer available for both lower-income and many middle-class residents. The rise in prices is caused by a range of issues including housing shortages or high demand in regions with strong job markets. Coupled with rising energy prices\, affordable housing and sustainable urban development have become critical issues for communities in both countries. To ensure that urban areas remain vibrant and diverse\, policymakers need to explore new policy tools that address zoning\, taxes and subsidies\, and smart growth\, among other issues. How are U.S. states and German Länder helping their urban communities confront these challenges? \nJoin the American Council on Germany and the Aspen Institute Germany for our next State-to-State: German-American State Legislator Dialogue for a discussion with German and American state legislators including Dr. Anke Frieling (CDU)\, Hamburg Parliament; Mathias Schulz (SPD)\, Berlin House of Representatives; and Marvin E. Holmes\, Jr. (D)\, Maryland House of Delegates.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fmeeting%2Fregister%2FtZEuceuurDstGdQqfoSBi2Yrp4LxmPRKBuDm” css=”.vc_custom_1664910549665{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Anke Frieling has been a member of the Hamburg Parliament since 2020 and is deputy chair of the CDU parliamentary group in Hamburg. As the spokesperson for urban development and science\, she is committed to ensuring that living\, working\, research\, and education remain attractive for Hamburg’s citizens today and in the future. Dr. Frieling studied business administration at Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich and earned her doctorate at Freie Universität Berlin. She has held leadership positions with various companies in Berlin\, Frankfurt\, and Hamburg. \nMarvin E. Holmes\, Jr. has been a member of the Maryland House of Delegates for almost 20 years and currently serves as Chair of the Housing and Real Property Subcommittee\, Chair of the Affordable Housing Committee within the Maryland Legislative Black Caucus\, and is a member of the Land Use & Ethics Subcommittee. Before his election to the General Assembly\, Delegate Holmes served on the Board of Directors\, Economic Development Corporation. He is a proud graduate of Tuskegee University with a degree in Engineering and Construction Management and an accomplished realtor and President & CEO of ME Holmes\, LLC where he enjoys helping people find the perfect home especially when affordability is an issue across the nation. \nMathias Schulz has been a member of the Berlin House of Representatives since 2021 and is the spokesman for the SPD parliamentary group for urban development\, for queer policy\, for federal affairs and for Brandenburg.

SUMMARY:Germany\, Russia\, and Ukraine: How does this Conflict End?
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The West has shown unity and commitment to Ukraine that would not have been forecast a year ago. The post-Cold War institutions are proving resilient and Putin’s desire to divide the democratic Allies has paradoxically bolstered the unity and resolve within NATO\, the European Union\, and the international community writ large. But\, as temperatures drop and heating (and electricity) prices rise\, will this unity hold? The government in Berlin may come under renewed pressure following the decision by the Kremlin to halt natural gas exports. \nOn the battlefield\, Ukraine’s army is gaining momentum but much of the land it has recaptured in the east and the south of the country has been raised and abandoned. The Russian Defense Ministry says it has 200\,000 new recruits\, but they have yet to be seen. And\, the U.S. commitment to provide more military aid to Ukraine has heightened tensions between Washington and Moscow – with Russia’s Ambassador to the United States calling this an “immediate threat” to Moscow. \nThe American Council on Germany and the Tennessee World Affairs Council are continuing their series of virtual events titled In Focus: Russia’s War in Ukraine to provide continued updates on and insights into the unprovoked Russian invasion of Ukraine that has rocked the world order. Join us on Monday\, October 10 for a discussion with security experts Dr. Liana Fix and Lieutenant General Ben Hodges about the war in Ukraine.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F7116649967547%2FWN_OmeKd4qQReG9UwnyoAkZlw” css=”.vc_custom_1664996787453{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Liana Fix is a CFR Fellow for Europe\, based in Washington\, DC. Previously\, she served in the International Affairs Department of the Körber Foundation in Berlin. She is a political scientist and historian\, and her work focuses on Russia and Eastern Europe\, European security\, arms control\, and German foreign policy. She will be focusing on transatlantic policy toward Russia while at GMF. Dr. Fix has published widely in academia\, think tanks\, and national and international media. She holds a doctorate degree from the Justus Liebig University Giessen and a master’s degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science. \nLieutenant General Ben Hodges served as Commanding General\, United States Army Europe from 2014 to 2017 before his retirement from the Army in early 2018. General Hodges has also served in a variety of Joint and Army Staff positions including Tactics Instructor; Chief of Plans\, 2nd Infantry Division in Korea; Aide-de-Camp to the Supreme Allied Commander Europe; Chief of Staff\, XVIII Airborne Corps; Director of the Pakistan Afghanistan Coordination Cell on the Joint Staff; Chief of Legislative Liaison for the United States Army; and Commander\, NATO Allied Land Command (İzmir\, Turkey).\n​\nAfter his first assignment as an Infantry Lieutenant in Garlstedt\, Germany\, he commanded Infantry units at the Company\, Battalion\, and Brigade levels in the 101st Airborne Division\, including Command of the First Brigade Combat Team “Bastogne” of the 101st Airborne Division in Operation IRAQI FREEDOM (2003-2004).

SUMMARY:The ‘Democratic Fallout’ of the War in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]With a forced referendum in Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine and the proclaimed annexation of these four territories by Russia\, democracy and sovereignty of a former Soviet state are once again undercut by hegemonial aspirations and big power competition. At the same time\, Russians are fleeing their homeland in large numbers after the announced that he would draft 300\,000 reservists. These developments as well as the challenges posed to democratic institutions and practices in Central and Eastern Europe – and beyond – raise questions concerning the broader implications of the war in Ukraine. \nJoin ACG and 1014 for another discussion as part of their virtual series Democracies und Pressure: Challenges for the Global Liberal Order. We will be joined by Dr. Alexander Cooley\, Claire Tow Professor of Political Science and Vice Provost for Academic Centers and Libraries at Barnard College and Academy Adjunct Faculty at Chatham House\, and Prof. Dr. Gwendolyn Sasse\, Director of the Centre for East European and International Studies (ZOiS) and Einstein Professor for the Comparative Study of Democracy and Authoritarianism at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F3716650800253%2FWN_-npB6fl4TICcOjy006Q6Xw” css=”.vc_custom_1665080055550{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Alexander Cooley is the Claire Tow Professor of Political Science at Barnard College.

SUMMARY:Niedersaschen at the Polls: What do the Results Mean?
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Over the weekend\, voters in Niedersachsen took to the polls. Initial results give the Social Democrats under the leadership of Minister President Stephan Weil a win\, even though they dropped nearly four percentage points since 2017. The Greens and the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) saw an upswing in support since the last state election. The Christian Democrats lost traction and the Free Democrats may not even clear the five percent hurdle. Given the results\, the Social Democrats may break with the Christian Democrats and form a government with the Greens. \nConsidered a litmus test for the national mood\, this state election sends mixed messages for Ampelkoalition at the federal level. Join the ACG for a discussion with journalist Claudia Wohlsperger about the election results – and what they mean for the State of Lower Saxony and at the federal level.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Claudia Wohlsperger is a journalist and reporter with Norddeutscher Rundfunk\, where she focuses on regional politics and economic issues. She has been with NDR for over eight years. She has also worked as a journalist and editor at ARD. \nShe holds a BA from Maastricht University and a MA in Journalism\, Media\, and Globalization from the University of Hamburg. She also studied at Aarhus University and in Budapest.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Red Wave or Blue Triumph? German Views of the United States before the Midterms
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]With less than a month until the mid-terms\, there are no clear indications which way the election will go. The Democrats are fighting to hold their narrow majority in Washington and the Republicans are hoping to win majorities in the House and Senate.
