Die Abschöpfung des Planungsmehrwerts als Repolitisierung der Planung? Eine neue Perspektive auf die aktuelle Wohnungsfrage

Wohnungspolitik ist in Deutschland erneut brisant und sozial aktuell. In Zeiten des neuen Städtewachstums sind innovative planerische wie auch politische Antworten auf den Mangel an bezahlbarem Wohnraum in Agglomerationsräumen gefragt. Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, das raumplanerische Instrument einer Abschöpfung des Planungsmehrwerts in seinen planerischen Voraussetzungen und politischen Implikationen zu untersuchen. Wir zeigen, dass die Abschöpfung des Planungsmehrwerts für eine sozial orientierte, demokratische Stadtpolitik Potenziale wie auch Gefahren birgt und verfolgen dabei eine ebenso politische wie theoretisch-konzeptionelle Zielsetzung

German Migrants in Post-war Britain

Weber-Newth and Steinert consider German migration to Britain after World War II, using written sources and interviews

Proceedings of the First International Multidisciplinary Conference at the Imperial War Museum, London, 29-31 January 2003

CD with 70 articles (825 pages in print); Accompanying book (100 pages). All articles in English. Follow the additional link to the publisher's homepage, then click on the link to 'Internationale Bezeihungen'to find details of this item and how to purchase it.In recent years the volume of international research on survivors of Nazi persecution has continually increased. At the same time there is a growing public interest in how survivors coped with their experiences and how they were treated by post-war societies. Researched topics are varied, as are the academic disciplines involved – often without taking much notice of each other. It is time to take stock of current research and to open up new perspectives for future work. This book and CD contain 70 selected contributions to the international multidisciplinary conference on Beyond Camps and Forced Labour. Current International Research on Survivors of Nazi Persecution which took place on 29 – 31 January 2003 at the Imperial War Museum, London (The 2nd conference took place in 2006). Edited CD-ROM and Booklet, includes Steinert & Weber Newth 'Beyond Camps and Forced Labour: Current International Research on Survivors of Nazi Persecution', pp. 1-27; Steinert 'British NGOs in Belsen Concentration Camp: Emergency Relief and the Perception of Survivors', pp. 44-57

Home, Colonial and Foreign: Europe, Empire and the History of Migration in 20th-century Britain

This essay reviews the increasingly rich recent literature on 20th-century transnational movements from empire and Europe to Britain and in the opposite directions, particularly on migration. It suggests that this work offers a way of thinking about British-empire and British-European relations – themes that have been comparatively neglected in 20th-century social and cultural history, especially in the period of decolonisation. While much of the literature on migration treats empire and Europe separately, as well as immigration and emigration, the essay makes connections between them, looking at changing British perceptions of Europe and the world beyond Europe: of home, colonial and foreign. It argues that the second half of the century saw an increasing erosion of distinctions between ‘colonial’ and ‘foreign’ and a reorientation of British world views towards Europe that owed little to its membership of the EU

The incidence of postoperative respiratory complications : A retrospective analysis of cuffed vs uncuffed tracheal tubes in children 0-7 years of age

Background: The use of cuffed vs uncuffed endotracheal tubes in pediatric anesthesia is widely debated. This study aimed to investigate whether the use of cuffed vs uncuffed tubes is associated with an increased incidence of acute postoperative respiratory complications. Methods: We retrospectively studied all children aged 0-7 years in which the trachea was intubated between September 28, 2006 and August 26, 2016 in a pediatric university hospital. Logistic regression analysis was performed to estimate the association between tube design (cuffed vs uncuffed) and the incidence of acute postoperative respiratory complications (stridor, wheezing, or dyspnea; desaturations ≤90%) in need of intervention (epinephrine, dexamethasone, nebulizers, supplementary oxygen, or reintubation), adjusting for potential confounders. Results: In 5247 of 6796 cases (77%), a cuffed tube was used. Acute postoperative respiratory complications in need of intervention occurred in 334 cases (4.9%) and were less common after cuffed than after uncuffed tubes (N = 236, 4.5% vs N = 98, 6.3%, respectively, odds ratio 0.70; 95%CI 0.55-0.89). Desaturation occurred less often after cuffed tubes (cuffed: N = 1365, 26.0%; uncuffed: N = 512, 33.1%; OR: 0.71 (0.61-0.84)). After adjusting for confounders, there was no difference in acute postoperative respiratory complications between cuffed tubes and uncuffed tubes (OR 0.74; 95%CI 0.55-1.01). Subgroup analyses in various age groups did not show significant differences between the use of cuffed or uncuffed tubes. Conclusion: After adjustment for multiple confounders, the use of cuffed tubes was not associated with an increased incidence of acute respiratory complications in postanesthesia care unit
