A Current Three Center Experience in Europe
Get PDFImmigration into Europe has reached an all-time high. Provision of coordinated healthcare, especially to refugee women that are at increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes, is a challenge for receiving health care systems. Methods: We assessed pregnancy rates and associated primary healthcare needs in three refugee cohorts in Northern Germany during the current crisis. Results: Out of n = 2911 refugees, 18.0% were women of reproductive age, and 9.1% of these were pregnant. Pregnancy was associated with a significant, 3.7-fold increase in primary health care utilization. Language barrier and cultural customs impeded healthcare to some refugee pregnant women. The most common complaints were demand for pregnancy checkup without specific symptoms (48.6%), followed by abdominal pain or urinary tract infections (in 11.4% of cases each). In 4.2% of pregnancies, severe complications such as syphilis or suicide attempts occurred. Discussion: We present data on pregnancy rates and pregnancy associated medical need in three current refugee cohorts upon arrival in Germany. Healthcare providers should be particularly aware of the requirements of pregnant migrants and should adapt primary caretaking strategies accordingly
Formlosigkeit, Post-Minimalismus und (queer-feministische) Kunstkritik vor, um und nach 1968
No full textFollowing the observation that 1968is a myth gathering together all sorts of interpretations and, in retrospect, even distorting them in part historically, the article attempts to describe the changes in the (queer) feminist reception of the sculptural objects of Louise Bourgeois and Lynda Benglis since the 1960s. A special critical focus is on the art-historical concept of so-called Post-Minimalism, which was coined in 1971 by Robert Pincus-Witten, and its connection with the formless.Post-Minimalism is commonly dated in art history to the late 1960s, although many earlier examples can be cited. In addition, the notions of a new kind of haptic sensibility, re-evaluated by curator Lucy Lippard with her 1966 exhibition Eccentric Abstractionand the prominently discussed idea of sexual liberation by Marcuse and its significance for the reception of the works of Bourgeois and Benglis, will be highlighted. It's obvious that 1968 is not as 68, Post-Minimalism not as postas it may seem

No full text‚Demenzfreundliche Kommunen‘ zwischen sozialstaatlichem Sparmodell und Emanzipationsgewinn
No full textDer von Bund, Kommunen und Selbsthilfeorganisationen ausgerufene „demenzfreundliche“ Umbau der Gesellschaft wird einer kritischen Analyse unterzogen. Hierfür werden die polit-ökonomischen und wohlfahrtstaatlichen Rahmenbedingungen des sozialpolitischen Konzepts der „sorgenden Gemeinschaft“ rekonstruiert, welches die Zivilgesellschaft zu einer wesentlichen Akteurin „demenzsensibler“ Kommunen erklärt. Unter den gegebenen Bedingungen läuft diese Entwicklung Gefahr, den mangelnden Ausbau sozialstaatlicher Transfer- und Dienstleistungen in der Altensorge abzufedern. Am Beispiel des Konzepts der „demenzfreundlichen Kommune“ wird gezeigt, dass bürgerschaftliche Sorgepraktiken Menschen mit Demenz zugleich Emanzipationsgewinne in Form von steigender sozialer Partizipation und Selbstbestimmung ermöglichen. Ausgehend von diesem Spannungsverhältnis wird ein Vorschlag unterbreitet, wie gemeinwesenorientierte Care-Arrangements jenseits der Dichotomie von sozialstaatlichem Sparmodell und idealistisch verklärter Sorgegemeinschaft zu fassen wären

An Impunity Experiment
No full textIn impunity games proposers, like allocators in dictator games, can take what they want; however, responders can refuse offers deemed unsatisfactory at own cost. We modify the impunity game via allowing offers to condition of another participant’s counterfactual generosity intention. For a given pair of proposer candidates each states, via the strategy vector method, an intended and two adjusted offers: one (possibly) upward adjusted in case the intended offer of the other candidate is higher and one (possibly) downward adjusted in case it is lower. Additionally, each candidate determines an acceptance threshold for the responder role. Only one candidate in each pair is randomly selected and endowed as the actual proposer whose offer is either possibly upward or downward adjusted depending on the counterfactual offer of the other proposer candidate. The endowed proposer of one pair is matched with the non-endowed candidate of another pair in the responder role. The data confirm that counterfactual intentions of others often affect own generosity via substantial and significant average adjustments to the weakest social influence. Overall, offers seem correlated with acceptance thresholds. Furthermore, we find significant gender differences: female participants state lower intended and adjusted offers as well as acceptance thresholds and therefore appear to be less sensitive to social influence
Education for Sustainable Development through International Collaboration. A Case Study on Concepts and Conceptual Change of School-Students from India and Austria on Gender Equality and Sustainable Growth
No full textDealing with the great challenges of the 21st century requires far reaching changes in the lifestyle and perceptions of humans to ensure an appropriate quality of life for all, now and in the future. To provide people with the necessary competencies, the UN initiated the Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) program. The two-year research-education, cooperative project ‘AustrIndia-4QOL’ aims to contribute to the goals of ESD. It is based on a collaboration between students from schools in Austria and India on the topics of quality of life, sustainability and global justice. The purpose of this particular case study is to explore the effects of a weeklong face-to-face collaboration in the final part of the AustrIndia-4QOL project. Therefore, it is examined whether or not Austrian and Indian students’ concepts regarding the Sustainable Development Goals ‘Gender Equality’ and ‘Decent Work and Economic Growth’ change as a consequence of encountering differing perspectives. Short texts written by the students at the beginning and at the end of this collaboration, according to guiding questions, form the basis for a qualitative content analysis. The findings illustrate that the students’ awareness increased and their evaluation of topics related to the discussed sustainable development goals changed
