With the mission of bringing forward analyses of the key political developments of the year, the Progressive Yearbook focuses on transversal European issues that have left a mark on 2022, and brings future-looking insights for the coming year.

This fourth edition was published in a year of war and mostly looks at the conflict itself, the actors involved and the implications for Europe. It also includes two national cases which consider the state of democracy in Sweden and Greece, and a global perspective on the shifting world order.

It counts on renowned authors’ contributions, including academics, politicians, and analysts.
26 January – FEPS HQ, Brussels

On the occasion of the launch of the new Progressive Yearbook 2023, our Secretary General, László Andor, revealed and awarded FEPS Progressive Person of the Year: Grzegorz Pietruczuk, Mayor of Bielany, Poland.

Every year FEPS chooses a Progressive Person of the Year to focus the limelight on a hardworking progressive who can show the way for others. This year we awarded Grzegorz Pietruczuk, Mayor of Bielany (Poland).

Grzegorz is a champion of local political leadership and humanitarian assistance. He has been at the forefront of supporting refugees from Ukraine, ensuring that those who arrive feel the solidarity of fellow Europeans and keep their faith in the possibility of a better life, in the community of European nations. Congratulations Grzegorz Pietruczuk! Read more.
By László Andor

The Russian aggression against Ukraine, with its manifold consequences, determined politics and life in Europe in 2022, and it will continue to do so in 2023. From the point of view of country size, Europe’s largest country invaded the second largest. The effects have been not only European but global. It is primarily the population of Ukraine that suffers incredibly from Vladimir Putin’s war, but the indirect effects have been felt worldwide in the forms of sky-rocketing food and energy prices, deepening financial crises as well as heightened geopolitical tensions. Read more.

This article is based on a longer contribution by László Andor to the FEPS Progressive Yearbook.
