Abstract:
Contemporary secular Switzerland has been polarised by more than two decades of anti-Muslim sentiments, conveyed through misrepresentative narratives by some politicians and media, ‘otherising’ Islam and Muslim-related issues. This polarised environment may have triggered ambivalent impacts on the personal development of Swiss-born Muslims Consequently, I suggest that they live in an ambivalent position, where their status as Muslim is not fully acknowledged and their belonging to Switzerland still questioned. Indeed, this article will explore the following research question: How do some young

Abstract:
Switzerland's neutrality during the Cold War allowed it, without joining any of the opposing blocs, to take an active part in international politics. This, in particular, was reflected in the so-called good offices and a series of protective mandates of Switzerland in Iran. The article presents a brief historical digression into the process of development of diplomatic relations between Switzerland and Iran. The purpose of the article is to determine the role of Swiss diplomacy in negotiations on the release of American hostages in Iran (1979-1981). The study was carried out on the basis of de

Abstract The article offers the first comprehensive account of relations between Germany and Switzerland in the years 1919 to 1931 based on archival sources from both countries.

During the inflationist period of 1919‒1923, as well as in the crisis of 1929‒1931, Switzerland, like the Netherlands, welcomed a huge amount of wealth from Germany while at the same time becoming an important creditor of the Reich.

Abstract During the Second World War, more than 10,000 Polish soldiers were interned in Switzerland. Among them were prominent architects, including Marek Leykam and Bohdan Garliński, who upon returning to Poland, left their mark on postwar modernism. Leykam was later marginalized for his buildings that were allegedly too International in style. Garliński became one of the key ideologists of Socialist Realism in the First General Exhibition of Architecture of the People’s Republic of Poland.

We estimate asymmetries in innovations to Solow residuals for 11 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries using stochastic frontier analysis. Likelihood ratio statistics and variance ratios imply that all countries with net energy imports have significant negative asymmetries, whereas other countries do not. We construct a simple theoretical model in which the measured Solow residual combines effects from technology, factor utilization, and the terms of trade. For oil importers, the model implies an asymmetric response of measured total factor productivity to oil

While the crime novel is generally considered trivial entertainment for mass audiences within the realm of German literature, the case is somewhat different in Switzerland, a country with a small state mentality.

The Reformation in French-speaking Switzerland outside of Geneva has received relatively little attention from historians. Unlike the movement in Geneva, the Reformation in its neighboring lands progressed in a completely different manner and was ultimately imposed on the people by the magistrates of Bern. Before 1536, Protestant reformers such as Guillaume Farel and Pierre Viret hardly touched most areas of the Pays de Vaud, which was governed by the Catholic duke of Savoy. Instead, they concentrated their efforts on areas within the jurisdiction of or allied to Protestant Bern, where they me

AbstractLocal governments play an important role in Switzerland. Despite their small size and their high number, municipalities are quite autonomous and fulfil key functions in the provision of tasks and services. What is especially noticeable is their fiscal and financial autonomy. Municipalities are regulated through cantonal constitutions and laws, which, from a federalist perspective, leads to remarkable diversity among the cantons. At the same time, the growing complexity of the policy landscape necessitates cooperation between municipalities and between different levels of government. Mu

AbstractThis chapter explores the political influence of Switzerland as a non-EU country in European electricity governance.

The empirical analysis assesses these variables qualitatively based on interview and other primary data. First, it shows that Switzerland has relatively high access to important European governance bodies. Second, it reve

Abstract:
Around 40 percent of the energy consumed in Switzerland can be attributed to the construction and running of the country’s building stock. Buildings and settlements will thus play a prominent role in the transformation of our energy system. Numerous steps for the future have already been initiated – but there still remains a great deal to do.

Abstract:
The aim of this report is to analyse the role of base-load energy for the Swiss energy system and to discuss possible implications of the transformation to a largely CO2-free energy system with regard to base-load energy and the need for flexibility measures. In Switzerland today, some electricity consumption is already shifted from high to low tariff times (demand-side management (DSM)), although the amount of this load shifting is not recorded centrally and is therefore difficult to quantify. However, it can be assumed that the DSM potential utilised today represents only a (smaller) fractio

Abstract:
Swiss families between tradition and transformation Since 1950, birth rates in industrialised countries have been falling sharply worldwide. The same applies in Switzerland: 50 years ago, women were still having 2.1 children, but nowadays the statistics show they only have 1.4 children. Does this mean the family is becoming less significant as a key social institution? Could it soon be eradicated? What functions does the family perform today? Our study indicates that it will not. However, it is changing. In a representative survey of the Swiss population and in interviews with experts from var

Abstract:
The 11 th International Workshop on Long-Term Changes and Trends in the Atmosphere will be held between 30 May and 3 June, 2022, at the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Helsinki, Finland. The workshop is organised by the Finnish Meteorological Institute. The workshop gathers together more than 50 scientists from the EU, USA, India, Canada, Argentina, Norway, China, Switzerland, and UK. This report is the official abstract book of the workshop. The scientific topics include: ● Stratospheric and mesospheric observations ● Simulations and predictions of the stratosphere and mesosphere ● Change

Abstract:
Researching and addressing “radicalization” within smaller European countries is particularly challenging. Not only is it incumbent that research and approaches take into account analyses, findings, strategies, and measures from other contexts, they must also work to craft their own national understanding of the extent and nature of the phenomena and approaches to address it. This chapter discusses the author’s reflections on experiences conducting two studies on violent jihadist radicalization in Switzerland at a time of heightened concern over potential jihadist violent extremist threats.

Abstract:
The Conference on Disarmament (CD) has played a significant role in the negotiation of several major multilateral agreements that continue to contribute to global peace and security. More recently, however, negotiation in the CD has reached an impasse, leaving it unable to make progress on its agenda at a point of growing geopolitical tension. To address this issue, the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), with the support of France and Germany, organized a high-level retreat in Montreux, Switzerland, on 22–23 June 2023 to discuss ideas to revitalize the work of the CD a

Abstract:
Near-to-surface geothermal energy with heat pumps is state of the art and is already widespread in Switzerland. In the future energy system, medium-deep to deep geothermal energy (1 to 6 kilometres) will, in addition, play an important role. To the forefront is the supply of heat for buildings and industrial processes. This form of geothermal energy utilisation requires a highly permeable underground area that allows a fluid – usually water – to absorb the naturally existing rock heat and then transport it to the surface. Sedimentary rocks are usually permeable by nature, whereas for granites
