erklär mir bitte einmal folgendes weshalb müssen bei privaten anlässen die einladung nach demokratischen prinzipien verschickt werden?![]()
Da das ganze aber eben eigentlich eine private Veranstaltung ist, können auch keine bindenden Entschlüsse gefasst werden, die die ganze Welt beeinflussen, zumindest keine, die nicht auch sonst in ähnlich informellem Rahmen gefasst werden könnten.176-671 hat geschrieben:es muss nicht grundsätzlich jede private veranstaltung auf demokratischen prinzipien basieren, sonst müsste ja jede geburtstagsparty demokratisch seinaber eine veranstaltung, die über die weltwirtschaft diskutiert und doch einige entschlüsse fasst, die die ganze welt betreffen, muss meiner meinung nach demokratisch aufgebaut sein, um das gewicht zu erhalten, dass die teilnehmer haben wollen!

DAVOS, Switzerland -- Security was tight around the mountain town of Davos, Switzerland, as global political and business leaders attended the opening of the annual World Economic Forum.
Preparing for any terrorist threat, organizers told The Associated Press that air force planes are ready to shoot down any unauthorized aircraft that stray too close to the 2,250 participants.
Police set up checkpoints on main roads and uniformed officers dotted the streets around the main site of the gathering, AP reported.
Delegates from 96 countries are in Davos for the annual event in which business leaders -- along with more than 20 heads of state or government, 70 cabinet ministers, 50 heads of nongovernmental organizations, as well as cultural, religious and union leaders -- are to discuss global challenges.
According to the forum's Web site, their goal is to "take responsibility for tough choices," which is the theme of the event.
French President Jacques Chirac was due to send an inaugural "special message" to the five-day meeting Wednesday afternoon.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair is scheduled to deliver the keynote address in the evening expected to focus on global warming and helping Africa. He is taking part in a plenary session with U2 singer Bono, Bill Gates and presidents Thabo Mbeki of South Africa and Olusegun Obasanjo of Nigeria on Thursday.
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder will speak Friday, and Jose Manuel Barroso -- the new president of the European Commission -- will get his first chance to address the world's business leaders Saturday, organizers said.
Newly inaugurated Ukraine President Viktor Yuschenko is scheduled to speak on Friday.
The annual forum has grown in importance in the 1990s as more than just a chance to talk business, compare notes and devise corporate strategy.
Increasingly the high level of participants and wide TV coverage has led to environmental and humanitarian issues being raised.
Celebrities are booked to attend with, in addition to Bono, Angelina Jolie, Richard Gere attempting to focus minds on how the world's eight richest countries, the Group of Eight industrial countries, can do more to reduce poverty and fight AIDS.
The forum is organized into a tightly packed choice of 220 sessions from breakfast time until midnight.
Planned discussions range from heavy discussions on the world economy or individual country's problems and prospects to more self-centered themes like "knowing your own mind."
Launching the event at a news conference at the World Economic Forum's headquarters in Geneva, founder and Executive Chairman Professor Klaus Schwab said 2005 was a crucial time for the world and its leaders.
"There are a number of new beginnings, from the new presidency of the European Commission, to the election of a new president for the Palestinian Authority, to the coming elections in Iraq, to the new leadership in Ukraine.
"Leaders from all sectors of society will come to Davos this year to work on ways to consolidate and build on these new beginnings to improve the state of the world. What is needed is 'pragmatic optimism', the resolve to work with the world we have, to make a world as it should be."
A "cultural leaders dinner" Friday gives participants a chance to meet with Gere, who has campaigned for Tibetan rights, and Jolie, a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, who has witnessed the problems of people fleeing persecution. The other scheduled guests include Sharon Stone and Carole Bouquet.
Bono, Clinton and Gates will meet with Blair, South African President Thabo Mbeki and Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo to discuss "The G8 and Africa -- Rhetoric or Action?"
Key U.S. leaders absent
The forum has been a favorite of top U.S. administration officials in recent years, including Vice President Dick Cheney and former President Bill Clinton, but this year's event will be dominated by top European leaders as key U.S. officials stay away because of personnel changes in the Bush administration, organizers said. Labor Secretary Elaine Chao is scheduled to attend, the only member of Bush's cabinet.
The U.S. Senate is assuring an American presence, however, with a delegation of 10 members headed by Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., and Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.
Ahead of the start of the forum, a survey released by PricewaterhouseCoopers found that 41 percent of corporate leaders said they were "very confident" of boosting revenue in the coming year, up from 31 percent a year ago, according to AP.
The survey of 1,300 chief executives worldwide also found that oscillating oil prices and fears of losing good talent were evident, but worries about terrorism appeared to wane compared with 2004.
CEOs in the United States, Asia and South America were "considerably more optimistic" about the potential for revenue growth than their counterparts in Europe, added Samuel DiPiazza, CEO of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., presenting the survey.
The Davos Economic Forum began in 1970 as a meeting of European CEOs brought together by Klaus Schwab.
A year later, the meeting became known as the "Davos Symposium" with the patronage of the Commission of the European Communities, as well as the encouragement of Europe's industry associations.
Anscheinend war's doch 1970?Die erste Tagung in Davos war 1971, e basta...
