Angaben zum Inhalt: „This study explores whether the corona crisis had an impact on the perception of job insecurity, operationalised as occupational insecurity. At the same time, we examine the association between occupational insecurity and two societal attitudes: political powerlessness and beliefs in a corona conspiracy. Finally, the literature on conspiracies suggests that the association between occupational insecurity and beliefs in a conspiracy are an attempt to give meaning to a crisis situation, like the corona pandemic. This hypothesis is tested by analysing whether political powerlessness mediates the association between occupational insecurity and the belief in a corona conspiracy. Data were gathered in December 2020 via an online survey among 1324 respondents in Flanders (Belgium). All hypotheses were corroborated by the analyses. The results suggest that the corona crisis did not only affect our health and health care system, but also might have ‘infected’ work related and societal and political attitudes.“

Abstract: „Op zoek naar het antwoord op de vraag: wat kunnen we leren van het behandelen van klachten tijdens een pandemie, onderzocht de Rotterdamse ombudsman 127 klachten die hij ontving in de eerste zes maanden van de coronacrisis. Het onderzoek en de leerpunten worden beschreven in het rapport Klachtbehandeling in tijden van een pandemie.1 In dit artikel leest u de belangrijkste bevindingen.“

Abstract: „Het ‘grootste criminologische experiment in de geschiedenis’, zo noemden twee Amerikaanse criminologen de pandemie (Stickle & Felson 2020). En terecht. De sociale onthouding die overheden in vele landen hebben opgelegd als reactie op de coronapandemie, brengt interessante vragen en onderzoeksmogelijkheden met zich mee. Eén van die vragen is hoe criminaliteit zich ontwikkelt in tijden van gedwongen thuisblijven en afgenomen sociaal verkeer. Die vraag staat in dit artikel centraal. We gebruiken in onze analyses politiegegevens afkomstig uit de Corona Crime Change Monitor over twaalf ‘coronamaanden’ (medio maart 2020-medio maart 2021) en vergelijken de ontwikkeling van de criminaliteit in die periode met de ontwikkeling in dezelfde periode een jaar eerder. The social abstinence imposed by governments in many countries in response to the corona pandemic raises interesting questions and research opportunities. One of those questions is how crime develops in times of forced stay at home and reduced social interaction. That question is the focus of this article. In their analysis, the authors use police data from the Corona Crime Change Monitor for twelve ‘corona months’ (mid-March 2020-mid-March 2021) and compare the development of crime in that period with the development in the same period a year earlier.“

Abstract: „The article uses three prominent examples from the Dutch context to problematize the relationship between contractual and social solidarity during the coronavirus crisis. The social science ideal types of ‘mechanical’ and ‘organic’ solidarity, and their typified correspondence with legal modes of punishment and compensation, are used to illuminate the way in which solidarity language in private relationships can convey and normalize assumptions about the public interest and economic order.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „De uitbraak van de Covid-19-pandemie in het begin van 2020 en de bijhorende coronacrisis heeft tot een bijzondere situatie op de arbeidsmarkt geleid. Eerder onderzoek toonde reeds aan dat een dergelijke crisis kan zorgen voor veranderingen in het werkzoekproces en psychisch welzijn van werkzoekenden. Of dit ook geldt voor de coronacrisis is voorlopig onbekend. Daarom voerden wij een online bevraging uit bij 327 werkzoekenden uit Vlaanderen in de vroege fase van de coronacrisis. Hierbij werd gebruikgemaakt van zowel gesloten als open vragen. Ten eerste melden de meeste respondenten dat zij het zoekproces voortzetten, maar de helft ervaart wel veranderingen in het zoekproces. Bepaalde jobaspecten zoals werkzekerheid zijn belangrijker geworden door de coronacrisis. Ten tweede lijkt de coronacrisis een negatieve invloed te hebben op het psychisch welzijn van de werkzoekenden: ze zijn meer bezorgd om geen job te vinden en ervaren uitzonderlijk veel stress en een sterk verminderd mentaal welbevinden. Ten derde blijken er maar weinig verschillen te zijn tussen de verschillende demografische groepen en de invloed van de coronacrisis op het werkzoekgedrag en psychisch welzijn. De resultaten van deze studie kunnen HR-professionals helpen om hun rekruteringsprocessen beter af te stemmen op potentiële sollicitanten om zo hun competitief voordeel en aantrekkelijkheid als werkgever te vergroten.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „Introduction: Belgium has noted a significant excess mortality during the first COVID-19 wave. Research in other countries has shown that people with migrant origin are disproportionally affected. Belgium has an ethnically diverse and increasingly ageing population and is therefore particularly apt to study differential mortality by migrant group during this first wave of COVID-19. Data and methods: We used nationwide individually-linked data from the Belgian National Register providing sociodemographic indicators and mortality; and the administrative census of 2011 providing indicators of socioeconomic position. Age-standardized all-cause mortality rates (ASMRs) were calculated during the first COVID-19 wave (weeks 11-20 in 2020) and compared with ASMRs during weeks 11-20 in 2019 to calculate excess mortality by migrant origin, age and gender. For both years, relative inequalities were calculated by migrant group using Poisson regression, with and without adjustment for sociodemographic and socioeconomic indicators. Results: Among the middle-aged, ASMRs revealed increased mortality in all origin groups, with significant excess mortality for Belgians and Sub-Saharan African men. At old age, excess mortality up to 60% was observed for all groups. In relative terms, most male elderly migrant groups showed higher mortality than natives, as opposed to 2019 and to women. Adding the control variables decreased this excess mortality. Discussion: This study underlined important inequalities in overall and excess mortality in specific migrant communities, especially in men. Tailor-made policy measures and communication strategies should be set-up taking into account the particular risks to which groups are exposed.“

Abstract: „As a part of measures taken to contain the spread of the coronavirus, sex work was barred in the Netherlands between 23 March and 1 July 2020, as well as between 15 december 2020 and 19 May 2021. Shortly after the start of the first lockdown, many sex workers appeared to be in increasingly precarious situations. They lost their main source of income but were largely excluded from receiving financial support provided by the Dutch government. This article examines the situation of sex workers during the first lockdown and in the weeks after they were permitted to resume work.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „The COVID-19 pandemic caused overcrowded IC units. In the Netherlands a discussion erupted on what category of patients should be granted a bed, if there would not be enough place to treat everybody. In this article the medical guidelines for this situation as well as the public discussion are examined and related to Ulrich Beck’s theory of reflexive modernization. It is argued that discussion and regulation of this dilemma follow reflexive patterns, albeit patchy. The discussion and regulation displayed reflective understanding of the perilous position of the elderly and frail but issues of class and ethnicity were not discussed. This research revealed that Beck’s theory holds its own when tested in an empirical situation, but it has weaknesses in regard to the predicted emergence of cosmopolitan solidarity.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „Engaging the concepts of flow, circulation and blockage can help us to understand the trajectories of pandemics and the social responses to them. Central to the analysis is the concept of obligatory passage points through which networks must pass. Attempts by various actors to control the movement through them, be they government authorities, health experts and caregivers, economic producers or consumers, can create social tensions. Such tensions were duly recognised during the recurring outbreaks of the plague in the Second Plague Pandemic between the fourteenth and the seventeenth centuries. Analysing historical plague ordinances allows us to expose the power mechanisms impacting networks as they move through spaces, and to remain critical of how circulation is controlled and moralised. We argue that historians can contribute to reviewing these mechanisms behind the spread of epidemics and the responses to them from the perspective of movement and blockage.“
