Abstract:
Questions regarding bilingual education are examined through the lens of Canada’s experience in the Province of Quebec, with particular emphasis on the social group (majority, minority) of the children and the schooling context. Several distinct approaches to bilingual education are identified and discussed, varying from an assimilation approach to a multicultural one. Early immersion in a second language is seen to have positive effects on school achievement as well as on mastery of the language. Canada’s experience may have important implications for other bilingual and multilingual-multicul

SUMMARYTaenia saginatacysticercosis causes financial losses to the beef industry and farmers, and represents a significant source for human infection in many countries. A case-control study was conducted to identify risk factors for bovine cysticercosis on farms in Switzerland. The case group (n=119) consisted of farms with infected cattle identified at slaughter in 2005 and 2006. Infections were confirmed by morphological or molecular diagnosis. The control group (n=66) comprised randomly selected farms with cattle slaughtered in the same period but with no evidence or history of infection. I

Studies of national identity and nationalism have experienced a high conjuncture during the last decade, and recently Switzerland (after a typical delay) is taking its place among them. In this rich but somewhat sprawling study, Oliver Zimmer traces the shifting contours of national sentiment in Switzerland—a project that always gave historical arguments a central place in the origins of Swissness—and seeks to show how a national identity could be constrained by embedded traditions and take shape out of the very debates over meaning of “the nation.”

Abstract:
In 1991, Switzerland encountered a lively debate on its identity as a nation, which should also have led to a redefining of its history. This article outlines the point of view of some Swiss historians who argued against a political instrumentalisation. Further, the article illustrates their counterproposals for a ‘new’ history of Switzerland from an explicit leftist perspective. It demonstrates how -blurred the border between strictly scientific objectivity on the one side, and political interests on the other side is, especially in the light of national history.

Such data would contribute to the production of a coherent family medicine teaching programme encompassing its specificities as well as future challenges facing medicine in general.

Abstract:
In the current century the extreme or ‘ultra’ position on the university campus has been to argue for its dissolution or abolition. University leaders and campus planners in Australia have mostly been unmoved by that position and ploughed on with expansive capital works campaigns and ambitious reformulations of existing campuses. The pandemic, however, provided ideal conditions for an unplanned but thoroughgoing experiment in operating universities without the need for a campus. Consequently, the extreme prospect of universities after the era of the modern campus now seems more likely than eve

Abstract:
The article examines the ideological and political implications of the stories from the hagiographical anthology included in the first book on the ethnohistory of Pashtuns “Khanjahan’s History and Afghan Treasury” (1613). Several stories of this anthology indirectly proclaim the legitimacy of the political leadership of the Pashtun tribal group of Betan. The Pashtun Lodi (1451–1526) and Suri (1540–1555) dynasties, which ruled in the Delhi Sultanate before the formation of the Mughal empire, were of Betan origin. The political subtext of the anthology’s narratives accompanied its main objective

Throughout the history of their presence in Iraq, the Yazidis have experienced harassment, persecution, killing and displacement.

Abstract:
Ours is an age of pervasive political turbulence, and the scale of the challenge requires new thinking on politics as well as public ethics for our world. In Western countries, the specter of Islamophobia, alt-right populism, along with racialized violence has shaken public confidence in long-secure assumptions rooted in democracy, diversity, and citizenship. The tragic denouement of so many of the Arab uprisings together with the ascendance of apocalyptic extremists like Daesh and Boko Haram have caused an even greater sense of alarm in large parts of the Muslim-majority world.
