  • The Founding and Development of Louvain-La-Neuve, the Only New Town in Belgium
    17th IPHS Conference, Delft 2016 | HISTORY URBANISM RESILIENCE | VOLUME 05 Historical Perspectives | The Persistence of the Vernacular | Continuity- and Change- THE FOUNDING AND DEVELOpMENT OF LOUVAIN-LA-NEUVE, THE ONLY NEW TOWN IN BELGIUM Pierre Laconte Foundation for the Urban Environment The new university town of Louvain-la-Neuve originated from the 1968 decision of the French-speaking university to leave the old town of Louvain ( Leuven in Dutch) and to acquire farmland south of Brussels in order to create a new town. Its urban model was directly inspired by the town of Louvain with its mix of land uses, in contrast to the functionalist approach in which different land uses are kept separate. Uncertainty about future growth led to a linear form of development along a pedestrian spine and a string of small squares, to priority being given to access by public transport - thanks to the national railways’ investment in a new sub-surface station - and to the collection of storm water into a reservoir, treated as a lake. The pedestrian spine has been the backbone for the development of compact neighbourhoods on each sides and of a shopping mall directly linked to the railway station.This contribution endeavours to show how these initial aims have been pursued over almost half a century and what are the present perspectives.

Maricel S. Ibita Introduction My heartfelt thanks to the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies (FTRS) of the KU Leuven for the invitation to give this lecture from the part of the Research Unit Biblical Studies (RUBS) on the occasion of the golden jubilee of the International Programmes in English.1 My gratitude also to the Ateneo de Manila University for the research leave grant to prepare for this lecture and its publication. While my initial excitement in drafting this piece was almost dampened by the enor- mity of the task to reflect on the future of biblical studies, it was replaced by a deep gratitude for the contributions of the KU Leuven to my own personal, academic and professional formation. Within the limited time and space, I apologize for any oversight as I paint in broad strokes the unique contributions and influences of our research unit to the greater field of global biblical studies, the current challenges for biblical research, and the possible trajectories for biblical criticism, with Psalm 109 as a test case as it talks about an ‘unsilent’ mouth (109:1), evil mouths (109:2), and praising mouth (109:30). The mouth here serves as a synecdoche, that is, with a generalizing and integrative function,2 for the whole person.

  • The Lion, the Rooster, and the Union: National Identity in the Belgian Clandestine Press, 1914-1918
    THE LION, THE ROOSTER, AND THE UNION: NATIONAL IDENTITY IN THE BELGIAN CLANDESTINE PRESS, 1914-1918 by MATTHEW R. DUNN Submitted to the Department of History of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for departmental honors Approved by: _________________________ Dr. Andrew Denning _________________________ Dr. Nathan Wood _________________________ Dr. Erik Scott _________________________ Date Abstract Significant research has been conducted on the trials and tribulations of Belgium during the First World War. While amateur historians can often summarize the “Rape of Belgium” and cite nationalism as a cause of the war, few people are aware of the substantial contributions of the Belgian people to the war effort and their significance, especially in the historical context of Belgian nationalism. Relatively few works have been written about the underground press in Belgium during the war, and even fewer of those works are scholarly. The Belgian underground press attempted to unite the country's two major national identities, Flemings and Walloons, using the German occupation as the catalyst to do so. Belgian nationalists were able to momentarily unite the Belgian people to resist their German occupiers by publishing pro-Belgian newspapers and articles. They relied on three pillars of identity—Catholic heritage, loyalty to the Belgian Crown, and anti-German sentiment. While this expansion of Belgian identity dissipated to an extent after WWI, the efforts of the clandestine press still serve as an important framework for the development of national identity today. By examining how the clandestine press convinced members of two separate nations, Flanders and Wallonia, to re-imagine their community to the nation of Belgium, historians can analyze the successful expansion of a nation in a war-time context.

  • Devolution, Nation-Building and Development Assistance
    Devolution, Nation-Building and Development Assistance: A Case Study of the Welsh Government’s Wales for Africa Programme Kathleen Mulready This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geography and Planning Cardiff University 2017 Abstract Devolution, Nation-Building and Development Assistance A Case Study of the Welsh Government’s Wales for Africa programme Abstract This study explores Wales for Africa, the Welsh Government’s international development programme. It particularly considers the issues of political decentralisation, and participation in development assistance, on the making of national identity in contemporary Wales. Using a case study methodology, and a conceptual framework of the sub-state and the citizen as development actor, it explores how notions of Welsh subjectivity are tied to iterations of national identity and civic value, constructed around the concept of sustainable development, and ideas of mutual benefit and reciprocity in international development. It focuses specifically on community-based development organisations linked with partner organisations in sub- Saharan Africa. Although the potential benefits of citizen-led development initiatives to right-based approaches are recognised, little attention has previously been paid to the role of international development to sub-state nation-building. The study seeks to address this gap. Situated within the field of interpretive policy analysis, the thesis adopts a context sensitive approach focussed on how a political narrative around nationhood and civic value has been constructed around Wales’ development activities as a symbol of an alternative nation. Beginning with political devolution, the timeframe of the study ends at October 2016.

  • Belgium (And Finland) Since the 1960S
    The typical dilemma between university expansion and rationalization: Belgium (and Finland) since the 1960s The typical dilemma between university expansion and rationalization: Belgium (and Finland) since the 1960s Pieter Dhondt & Arto Nevala Immediately after the abolition in 1814 of the academies of Brussels and Liège, a struggle broke out in the Southern Netherlands between several cities to secure the establishment of a university within their walls. Particularly the advocates of Leu- ven and Brussels pushed forward the ideal of one university, although it appeared to be impossible to reach a consensus about where to establish this single universi- ty. From the start, the ideal met with all kinds of conflicting local interests. Howe- ver, the idea of one university actually never left the scene again. Certainly in reac- tion to the university expansion in the 1960s and the subsequent need of rationali- zation of the university landscape from the 1970s, the idea of one university (in this period for Flanders) gained in attraction again. By comparing the debate in Bel- gium with that in Finland, the article will make clear that the outcome of the dis- cussions was not determined by arguments with regard to pedagogy and science, but rather by local, regional, ideological, economic and not the least political prio- rities, which besides, changed only very little during the whole period. Introduction In this article it is argued that the perceived trend towards commodification in higher edu- cation should be analysed in a broader framework because this phenomenon is to a large extent the result of other, deeper rooted streams in society.

  • Episcopal Leadership in a Time of Crisis the Elusive Attempt to Incardinate George Tyrrell Jonas Bognar
    Louvain Studies 41 (2018): 64-88 doi: 10.2143/LS.41.1.3284694 © 2018 by Louvain Studies, all rights reserved Episcopal Leadership in a Time of Crisis The Elusive Attempt to Incardinate George Tyrrell Jonas Bognar Abstract. — This article hones in on a particularly difficult and trying period in the Roman Catholic Church, namely that of episcopal leadership during the Mod- ernist Crisis. It explores not only the specific situation of the attempted incardina- tions of the expelled English Jesuit, George Tyrrell, into the Archdiocese of San Francisco and the Archdiocese of Mechelen-Brussels, but more importantly, it leads one to question just how this situation came to be and how it failed to be resolved in an institution where no priest is to be left without a home. Finally, this article articulates the pressure that members of the episcopacy faced, forcing them to walk the tightrope between the pastorally practical solution to these challenges, and the ongoing rigid and reactionary attitudes espoused by the Holy See. If one were to investigate the causes, needs, and procedures to incardi- nate a priest into a bishop’s see today, one would find all of the pertinent information in the 1983 Code of Canon Law, specifically Can. 265-272. These canons were naturally built upon the Codex Iuris Canonici of 1917, but prior to its promulgation by Benedict XV (1914-1922) vari- ous rules and regulations existed in a patchwork of decrees that came into existence as interpretations of the decrees of the Council of Trent (1545-1563). These included instructions that every cleric be attached to a bishop and not “homeless” or “wandering.”1 In the case of George Tyrrell (1861-1909), with his hopes of being incardinated into a diocese as a secular priest following his dismissal from the Society of Jesus in 1906, he encountered a situation of difficulty with a number of bishops whom he contacted, due in great part to his role in the Modernist Crisis.

The research question was mainly who are they? , in an attempt to draw a first picture of their socio-demographic background, ethnicity, functions, and expectations with respect to their position in Flanders, or in Belgium more broadly speaking. The first three sections give context information about Muslims, Islam and mosques in Belgium and Flanders. In the next sections the research design and the results are presented. This presentation focuses on four issues: imams as immigrants; their tasks and workload; their job situation and attitude towards official recognition and payment; and finally their ambiguous attitudes toward government initiatives. We give also some reflections in dialogue with research on imams in other Western European countries.
