Einsatz künstlicher Intelligenz zur Suizidprävention im Justizvollzug
Ob beim autonomen Fahren oder bei der menschlichen Spracherkennung: Der Einfluss künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) auf die Gesellschaft wächst. Die damit einhergehenden technischen Neuerungen bieten nicht nur großes Veränderungspotential für die Privatwirtschaft. Auch staatliche Einrichtungen können sich die technischen Möglichkeiten der KI zunutze machen. Vor diesem Hintergrund untersucht der Beitrag Einsatzgebiete künstlicher Intelligenz zur Prävent…

Die (neue) Materialität des Spirituellen” held at the Johannes a Lasco Bibliothek, Emden in April 2016. Continuity and change in church interiors were key concepts addressed at the conference. The studies presented here analyse the impact of confessional change on church interiors and intentionally move away from the cathedrals and parish ch…
Contested Space in a Contested Border Area
This article investigates contemporary perceptions of church space in the border town of ‘s Hertogenbosch in the aftermath of the Peace of Westphalia. Through a close reading of two chorographies, the study sheds light on ways in which historians can try to grasp contemporary views on what mattered in a church interior in the contested border areas of the Generality Lands, regions in the Dutch Republic, where the Calvinist political elite remaine…

Implementation of Judgments of the ECtHR in the Area of Criminal Law and Criminal Procedure Law from a German Perspective
The jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has become more and more important – especially in criminal matters. In order to illustrate the implementation of the ECtHR’s jurisprudence in the area of German criminal and criminal procedure law, the present article aims to shed a light on recent judgments and developments. \nThe first example concerns the provocation of unlawful acts by public authorities which raises serious iss…

Ofter gheen water op en hadde gheweest’ – Narratives of Resilience on the Dutch Coast in the Seventeenth Century
Inundations and floods were part of the everyday experiences of early modern coastal societies. While much scholarly research has focused on the immediate reactions to the seemingly extraordinary inundations, this article argues, that an investigation of the long-term perspective of flood accounts, beyond the much studied discourses of ministers, magistrates and engineers might reveal a different, but perhaps more typical response to these disast…

The Politics of Memory
The Eighty Years’ War and the establishment of two states in the Low Countries inaugurated the publication of numerous texts to support a distinct Northern and Southern identity. This study analyses urban and regional chorographies written both in the North and in the South in the seventeenth century. It examines different strategies that chorographers developed to make sense of the recent and more remote past. It also looks at the development of…
The Politics of Memory
The Eighty Years’ War and the partition of the Low Countries led to the publication of numerous chorographical works on towns and regions in the Northern and Southern Netherlands. This book offers a comparison of these histories reflecting political change and promoting new identities

Politische Redekultur in der Vormoderne. Die Oratorik europäischer Parlamente in Spätmittelalter und Früher Neuzeit
‘They obey all magistrates and all good lawes … and we thinke our cittie happie to enjoye them’
The article looks at urban stability and crime control in cities with large immigrant communities in sixteenth-century England. It outlines the strategies of shared authority between urban magistrates and leaders of refugee communities to tackle conflict and crime. It argues that the Strangers were able to present themselves as useful and welcome members of their host community, which profited from their arrival. At the same time they managed to …
Introduction
One of the most widespread stereotypes about modern urban life claims that it is more dangerous and crime-ridden than life in the country. Journalists use the evidence of delinquency-rates in big cities to argue for the presence of contemporary crime waves. The police apply new methods of crime prevention such as the so-called ‘zero tolerance’ strategy first in large metropolises. The tabloid press detects ‘murder capitals’. The film industry lov…
Language no obstacle
German war brides are an essential part in the cultural memory of post-war West Germany. This study sheds some light on the representation of war brides in German newspapers and magazines published in the American and British zones between 1945/46 and 1949. It argues that German- American marriages were utilised to demonstrate and to enhance the good relations between the former enemies and contributed to the popularisation of the ‘American Dream…
Political Change and Urban Memory
The Dutch Golden Age inaugurated the publication of numerous texts in search of the establishment of a Dutch national identity. Research into the ‘new patriotic scripture’ (Schama) has so far been focused on the productions in the region of Leiden. Less interest has been paid to the town histories, which were the most popular genres at the time. The article looks at three prominent histories of Amsterdam: Johannes Isacius Pontanus' seventeenth Ce…
News across the channel ‐ contact and communication between the Dutch and Walloon refugees in Norwich and their families in flanders, 1565–1640
This article examines the contacts kept between Dutch and Walloon refugees, who fled the Low Countries in the second half of the sixteenth century and their relatives and friends back home. The Norwich exile communities are taken as a case study to discuss how and how long family ties were maintained across the Channel. By looking at letters, port‐books and wills it will be analysed how long a particular Dutch and Walloon identity, which was cent…
