Im Unterschied zu den meisten Nationalkulturen Europas entstand die moderne jiddische Kultur in geografisch auseinanderliegenden Landschaften und ohne den Rückhalt eines Nationalstaates. Sie bewahrte bei aller Unterschiedlichkeit ihren Zusammenhalt quer durch die verschiedenen Mehrheitskulturen und jenseits aller nationalstaatlichen Grenzen. Der geographisch fragmentierte Kulturraum und die Vorstellungen hinter dem Begriff „Jiddischland“, die sprachliche und weltanschauliche Verbundenheit dieser transnationalen Gemeinschaft, werden bei der Tagung umrissen.

Derek Wall. Elinor Ostrom’s Rules for Radicals: Cooperative Alternatives Beyond Markets and States (London: Pluto Press, 2017).
I’ve known Derek Wall for some time as a friend on Twitter, a fellow admirer of Elinor Ostrom, an Ostrom scholar, and an official in the Green Party of England and Wales. This is not my first introduction to him as a scholar; I read his The Sustainable Economics of Elinor Ostrom (2014), which he was kind enough to share with me in proof.

Europe's new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) goes into force today, after two years of preparation. Meanwhile, in the US, a remarkable number of people are suggesting we should adopt something like the GDPR. What does that actually mean, and what policy trade-offs does it entail?

Ziel der nationalen Kampagne „Saubere Hände“ ist die Verbesserung des Händehygieneverhaltens von Personal, Patientinnen und Patienten und Besuchern im Gesundheitswesen. Schon seit 2009 nimmt das UKD daran teil.

"La producción pública de servicios de salud dejó de ser una trinchera protegida y ha ido quedando expuesta a los vaivenes del mercado, en este caso, del mercado del trabajo. Hoy el sector público con sus estatutos inflexibles representa el lado más frágil de la ecuación, en particular cuando los recursos escasean, como es el caso de los especialistas médicos", señala en la siguiente columna el Dr.

Today, the EU General Data Protection Regulation – or GDPR – comes into effect amid a great deal of anticipation and build-up. For the past few years, companies and policy makers around the world have been preparing for this legislation to come into force. It introduces higher and stricter privacy requirements and heavy fines for noncompliance. The interesting, yet challenging, part of the GDPR is that it applies to all organizations processing the personal data of subjects within the European Union, regardless of their location.

The current rhetoric around the blockchain hints at problems with the techno-utopian ideologies that surround digital activism.

 Agriculture 3.0 describes the increasing implementation and promotion of digital technologies in agricultural production.

跨境电商蓬勃发展，然而纠纷也日益增多。遇到问题，消费者该怎么维权？北京师范大学法学院教授薛虹，在2018中国电子商务创新发展峰会上接受记者专访时说，跨境电商平台应建立健全争议解决机制，同时大力开展网上调解、网上仲裁等非讼争议解决制度。

“发生产品方面的纠纷去国外法院起诉，既耗时又费钱，不太可行。”同时，薛虹也认为中国消费者依照中国法律在中国法院起诉外国商家，再把法院裁决通过外交途径递送到当地执法机构的主张，也很“乌托邦”。
