2…………> Fight Nazism: Re-Print Mein Kampf

.
French publisher Fayard is to release a new translation of Mein Kampf  after years of delay due to the controversy over publishing Adolf Hitler’s racist, anti-Semitic screed, but historians behind the project say it will perform a valuable service in elucidating – and thereby disarming – the Nazis’ ideology for French readers.

Fayard were so keen to emphasize the edition’s scholarly nature that Hitler’s name does not even appear on the tome’s bare, white cover. Nor is it titled Mein Kampf: The book is instead called Historiciser le mal, une edition critique de Mein Kampf (“Putting Evil in Context: A Critical Edition of Mein Kampf”)

This is especially apt because most of the text is in fact historians’ commentary on Hitler’s writing, explained Hélène Miard-Delacroix, a professor of German history at the Sorbonne University in Paris: “It’s the fruit of a decade of historical research, these notes and critical annotations make up two-thirds of the book, so it would be inaccurate to describe it as just a new translation,” she said.

3…………> Biden’s Global Tax Plan

.
The European Union could end up with an extra €50 billion ($61 billion) in its pockets if Joe Biden’s plan for a 15 percent global corporate tax rate gets the green light from other nations, according to the newly-established EU Tax Observatory group. In a new report, the group analyzed how much money the EU would generate from imposing a minimum tax rate on its multinational giants, since Biden’s administration has initially proposed to impose a 21 percent rate on global multinationals, but this was downgraded to “at least” 15 percent as a “floor” target.

4…………> Asia COVID19 Mutations: A Threat To The World?

.
If the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread worldwide, vaccines could become ineffective and strains could escape immunity, hence the right vaccines need to go to the places where they are needed. Research into genome databases, like nextstrain.org, indicates that there are now more than 1,000 known variants of the SARS CoV-2 virus, hence global health authorities until now, the “variants of concern” have been named after the places where they were first discovered. But the World Health Organization has now introduced a new naming system based on the letters of the Greek alphabet  given the letters Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta respectively, yet the labels will not replace their more complex scientific names, and ever lurking danger for a new spread.
