Identities in civil conflict : how ethnicity, religion and ideology jointly affect rebellion
No full textEva Bernauer predicts civil conflicts based upon the political exclusion of identity groups and their transnational links to external governments. The innovation lies in a simultaneous consideration of three identities – ethnicity, religion, and class-based ideology – thus extending previous studies with merely an ethnic focus. Most importantly, such a perspective implies a shift towards a society’s unique three-dimensional identity setup, upon which the excluded population and their transnational links can be determined. The author presents original data on the three-dimensional identity setup for 57 countries and introduces a formal model where rebel leaders strategically use identities to garner the support of the population. Key quantities of interest, such as the largest excluded subgroup or the number of identity links to external governments, are tested in several quantitative analyses as predictors for the onset of civil conflicts. The author shows that there is an added value of extending the mere ethnic perspective to also encompass religion and class-based ideology

Eva Urban. 'Lessing’s Nathan the Wise: from the Enlightenment to the Berliner Ensemble.'
No full textLessing's Nathan the Wise (1779), exemplary for its enlightenment and humanist ideals, assembles Jews, Christians, and Muslims in dialogue during the medieval crusades in Jerusalem. Their encounters allow them to transcend conflict, to recognize their common humanity, and to resolve their differences through dialectical discourse and group arguments. In this article Eva Urban looks closely at the representation of enlightenment in this play and examines the potential role of plays and theatre practice in developing autonomous citizenship and intercultural understanding. Particular reference is made to the 2013 Berliner Ensemble production of Nathan the Wise in relation to aesthetic debates about modern political drama. Eva Urban is a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Faculty of English, University of Cambridge, and an Associate of Clare Hall, Cambridge. She is the author of Community Politics and the Peace Process in Contemporary Northern Irish Drama (Peter Lang, 2010) and has published a number of articles on political drama and Irish studies
Same but Different? Comparing the Epidemiology, Treatments and Outcomes of COVID-19 and Non-COVID-19 ARDS Cases in Germany Using a Sample of Claims Data from 2021 and 2019
No full textBackground: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe lung condition that can be caused by a variety of underlying illnesses. Due to SARS-CoV-2, the number of cases with ARDS has increased worldwide, making it essential to compare this form of acute respiratory failure with classical causes of ARDS. While there have been several studies investigating the differences between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS in early stages of the pandemic, little is known about the differences in later phases, especially in Germany. Aim: The aim of this study is to characterize and compare the comorbidities, treatments, adverse events, and outcomes of COVID-19-associated ARDS and non-COVID-19 ARDS using a representative sample of German health claims data from the years 2019 and 2021. Methods: We compare percentages and median values of the quantities of interest from the COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS group, with p-values calculated after conducting Pearson’s chi-squared test or the Wilcoxon rank sum test. We also run logistic regressions to access the effect of comorbidities on mortality for COVID-19 ARDS and non-COVID-19 ARDS. Results: Despite many similarities, we find that that there are some remarkable differences between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS cases in Germany. Most importantly, COVID-19 ARDS cases display fewer comorbidities and adverse events, and are more often treated with non-invasive ventilation and nasal high-flow therapy. Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of comprehending the contrasting epidemiological features and clinical outcomes of COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS. This understanding can aid in clinical decision making and guide future research initiatives aimed at enhancing the management of patients afflicted with this severe condition.
