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: „In June 2020, the Flemish populist radical right party Vlaams Belang (VB) published the Corona Blunder Book (CBB; Coronablunderboek in Dutch), detailing the government's mistakes in handling the COVID-19 crisis. Populist parties can 'perform' crisis by emphasising the mistakes made by opponents (Moffitt, 2015) and may use a specifically populist discursive style, consisting largely of aggressive and sarcastic language (Brubaker, 2017). This paper takes the CBB as a case study in the populist performance of crisis and the populist style, finding that the book is, first, a clear example of populist 'everyman' stylistics and the performance of crisis, and, second, that VB uses the book to shift the COVID-19 crisis from a public health crisis to a crisis of governance, seeking to blame Belgium's federal structure for the government's alleged mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic and hence arguing for Flemish independence, one of the party's main agenda points.“

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.“

Abstract: „In this article, the author reflects on the impact of COVID-19 on policing, the relations among police officers and the interactions between police and citizens based on systematic social observations in small to semi-sized local police forces during the pandemic. The article discusses the nature of police work during the crisis and new types of interventions that police officers are confronted with (e.g. curfew controls). Additionally, the impact of the pandemic on the internal and external relations is discussed. Internally, the COVID-19 measures may have an impact on police officers’ possibilities for personal, social interactions among colleagues, which may potentially challenge the solidarity within the police force. Externally, tensions may arise in relations with citizens, partly because of unclear regulations or variable interpretations of those regulations. Those unclear regulations, but also uncertainties concerning one’s own competences and questions regarding the police’s role in enforcing the pandemic regulations, put pressure on the police’s (self-)legitimacy.“

Aus dem Inhaltstext: „Roger Lybaert (1931), ex-militair en Vlaanderens bekendste rusthuisbewoner, schreef zich in coronatijd de eeuwigheid in. Via een open brief stelde hij de beperkte vrijheid van de rusthuisbewoners aan de kaak. Zowat elk tv-programma, krant of magazine liet hem aan het woord. Dochter Leentje maakte een documentaire over haar vader en schreef zijn verhaal neer. In dit boek vertelt Roger openhartig over zijn leven en over wat hem gevormd heeft tot de kranige man die hij is.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „Opgelucht begaf ik me naar het Vaccinatiecentruum Koornmolen voor mijn prik. Verrast en enthousiast verliet ik het centrum. Mijn ervaring stond in schril contrast met de verwachtingen die ik koesterde op basis van de negatieve berichtgeving in de kranten over de vaccinatiecampagne. Als reactie hierop wou ik iets terugdoen om de inspanningen van de vrijwilligers van de vaccinatiecentra de wel verdiende aandacht te schenken en ze te danken en te eren voor alle inspanningen en het enthousiasme en de vriendelijkheid waarmee ze deze taken hebben opgepakt. Als gepassioneerd fotograaf weet ik dat foto’s vereeuwigen en dat een fotoboek als blijvende tastbare herinnering een belangrijke rol heeft. Ik stelde aan Michel Doomst voor om beeldmateriaal te maken en er een boek mee samen te stellen dat als eerbetoon en als dank aan de vrijwilligers zou worden opgedragen. Mijn voorstel kreeg snel gehoor. Dank zij Michel en zijn naaste medewerkers van het kernteam kreeg ik de kans hier concreet werk van te kunnen maken en het werd tevens een heel bijzondere persoonlijke levenservaring. Ik maakte sfeerbeelden van het centrum op onze Nationale Feestdag en kon in de praktijk beleven wat onze Vorst de dag voordien in zijn toespraak had benadrukt over zijn bewondering voor het werk van de vele vrijwilligers: “Onze kracht om op te veren door terug te gaan naar de essentie: onze menselijkheid”. De vrijwilligers portretteerde ik zonder masker om zo de blik te vangen die achter het doekje verborgen was gebleven voor de gevaccineerden. In een korte quote geven ze hun indrukken weer en wat hen bij zal blijven over hun periode in het vaccinatiecentrum. Ik hoop met deze beelden respect en dank aan alle vrijwilligers en medewerkers te betonen voor hun solidaire en enthousiaste inzet opdat wij allen terug een normaal sociaal leven zouden kunnen leiden. Een dikke merci! Rudy Boon“

Abstract: „This article examines the role played by signs in the public space of two socio-economically stratified residential neighbourhoods of Ghent (Belgium) during the first Covid-19 outbreak in 2020. On the basis of fieldwork, we explore the potential of public signs as a resourceful strategy for communicating solidarity and support and the discursive construction of a community affected by this crisis. We show that in times of lockdown and social distancing, the residential linguistic landscape in both neighbourhoods became strategically appropriated by local inhabitants to communicate with neighbours and strangers and was operationalised as a vehicle to serve new communicative functions such as the conveying of solidarity and support as well as gratitude, and collective belonging. Some differences related to emplacement, language use and quantity of signs were also observed. Overall, the article documents the affective appropriation of space through Covid-19 signs during the Covid-19 outbreak and periods of lockdown in Flanders, Belgium.“

Abstract: „Studies on media coverage of women politicians have underlined how the media contribute to the association of the figure of the political leader with masculinity. Yet, the social construction of leadership seems to evolve towards a more 'femininity-inclusive' definition. Research on the 'glass cliff' phenomenon suggests that stereotypical feminine attributes might be expected from political leaders in a time of crisis. We investigated the gendered construction of political leadership in the press in a COVID-19 context through the case of former Belgian Prime minister Sophie Wilmès. In line with the 'think crisis-think female' association, our discourse analysis shows an appreciation of traditionally feminine traits, and particularly care-related qualities, in the evaluation of what a 'good' leader should be in pandemic times, although some characteristics traditionally associated with masculinity are still considered valuable assets in the journalistic portrayal of Wilmès' leadership.“

Abstract: „The Resilience of Democracy in the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Since January 2020, European countries have implemented a wide range of restrictions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet governments have also implemented democratic compensators in order to offset the negative impacts of restrictions. This article aims to account for the variation of their use between Belgium, the Netherlands and France. We analyse three drivers: the strength of counterpowers, the ruling parties' ideological leanings and political support. Building on an original data set, our results distinguish between embedded and ad hoc compensators. We find that ad hoc compensators are championed mainly by counterpowers, but also by ideology of the ruling coalitions in Belgium and the Netherlands and used strategically to maintain political support in France. Evidence on the link between embedded compensators and counterpowers is more ambiguous.“
