Une «Flamandisation» De Bruxelles?
Une «flamandisation» de Bruxelles? Alice Romainville Université Libre de Bruxelles RÉSUMÉ Les médias francophones, en couvrant l'actualité politique bruxelloise et à la faveur des (très médiatisés) «conflits» communautaires, évoquent régulièrement les volontés du pouvoir flamand de (re)conquérir Bruxelles, voire une véritable «flamandisation» de la ville. Cet article tente d'éclairer cette question de manière empirique à l'aide de diffé- rents «indicateurs» de la présence flamande à Bruxelles. L'analyse des migrations entre la Flandre, la Wallonie et Bruxelles ces vingt dernières années montre que la population néerlandophone de Bruxelles n'est pas en augmentation. D'autres éléments doivent donc être trouvés pour expliquer ce sentiment d'une présence flamande accrue. Une étude plus poussée des migrations montre une concentration vers le centre de Bruxelles des migrations depuis la Flandre, et les investissements de la Communauté flamande sont également, dans beaucoup de domaines, concentrés dans le centre-ville. On observe en réalité, à défaut d'une véritable «flamandisation», une augmentation de la visibilité de la communauté flamande, à la fois en tant que groupe de population et en tant qu'institution politique. Le «mythe de la flamandisation» prend essence dans cette visibilité accrue, mais aussi dans les réactions francophones à cette visibilité. L'article analyse, au passage, les différentes formes que prend la présence institutionnelle fla- mande dans l'espace urbain, et en particulier dans le domaine culturel, lequel présente à Bruxelles des enjeux particuliers. MOTS-CLÉS: Bruxelles, Communautés, flamandisation, migrations, visibilité, culture ABSTRACT DOES «FLEMISHISATION» THREATEN BRUSSELS? French-speaking media, when covering Brussels' political events, especially on the occasion of (much mediatised) inter-community conflicts, regularly mention the Flemish authorities' will to (re)conquer Brussels, if not a true «flemishisation» of the city. -

Policy priorities and/or reform opportunities in Estonia and Lithuania In Estonia and Lithuania increasing numbers of newly arrived migrants and returning nationals has emphasized the importance of an inclusive education system. Furthermore, long-living cultural minorities in both countries contribute to the diverse linguistic and cultural landscape in the region. This calls for policymakers and education institutions to take specific measures to facilitate the integration of children with a migrant background. The education systems in Estonia and Lithuania face several challenges related to migrant education. One of them is uneven school preparedness to address the needs of diverse learners and teachers lacking competences and skills to deal with diversity in the classroom. The latter aspect is of utmost importance as the success of migrant inclusion in education system in many ways relies on pedagogues and professional support staff in schools. Thus, a growing number of newly arrived immigrants and returnees highlights the importance of multicultural competence and language awareness to be introduced systematically in teacher education programmes. This has become an important policy priority in both Estonia and Lithuania, though the issue has been addressed inconsistently to date. Both Estonia and Lithuania have undergone various reforms in higher education and teacher training over the past years. -

[email protected] ABSTRACT: In Europe, several studies show that prolonging the life of a building has lower environmental impact than demolishing and building a new one. Retrofitting of residential buildings provides thus a considerable potential in energy conservation and sustainability benefits. But retrofitting an old house is a delicate process. This paper stresses the role of energy efficiency retrofitting of old dwellings in Brussels as the key element to achieve the European Union (EU) energy efficiency targets. The approach of this study is to conceive the buildings as a stock rather than individual entities, by developing a preliminary classification by construction system and building components. -

THE FIGURES Editorial
BRUSSELS-EUROPE THE FIGURES Editorial By creating the Office of the Brussels Commissioner for Europe and International Organisations, the governement of the Brussels- Capital Region confirms its will to take on the vocation of Brussels as capital of Europe. The essential role of the Commissioners’ Office is to develop a regional seat policy by offering a single point of contact to the different institutions for every question related to their presence on the Brussels territory. The somewhat 60 European, international and intergovernmental institutions not to mention the 300 regional and local representations present on our territory, reinforce the undeniable international position of Brussels in the world as well as its internal diversity. This wealth, both economic and cultural, makes our region unique and is something to be proud of. This publication helps to objectify the impact of these institutions on the region and the major economic importance they represent. The 121,000 jobs created and 5 billion euros of added value are a major contribution to the fact that Brussels is the 3rd Region of the European Union in terms of GDP.

It is the key to breaking the vicious cycle of congestion that threatens to bring cities to gridlock. In that cycle, increasing private traffic makes public transport become slower and less reliable, especially because while motorists are free to seek less congested routes, public transport lines cannot simply change their path, and therefore suffer the worst congestion. -

A chanson des vieux amants? Belgium and the world’s fairs dr. Rika Devos Department of Architecture & Urban Planning, Ghent University St.-Lucas, Department of Architecture, Wenk World’s fair architecture: a setting for discussion World’s fairs would have lost their meaning in today’s mediatised global village: in 2010, this is old news, as world’s fairs, by their very existence, continue to deliver proof of the will to show, to (re)consider, nothing less than the world. Printed press, live satellite television, Internet, YouTube and Skype, multinational corporations, free travel, changed concepts of the nation and international relations, Europe without borders: all these eye and mind openers have not, as was suggested by many in the 1990ies, drained the sense and purpose from world’s fairs. Ever since the first post-war world’s fair – Expo 58, held in Brussels – organisers have publically questioned the use of their events, as from the 1950s onwards, evolutions in science, (tele)communications and transportation theoretically made the world accessible to all. But world’s fairs offer a specific view of the world, bound by place, time and the exhibition’s theme, which give order and sense to the gathering. Indeed, one of the criteria used by the BIE1 to grant a city the right to organise a world’s fair is the choice and elaboration of a relevant theme. Such a theme – in case of Shanghai 2010 ‘Better City, Better Life’ – has to set the goals for the fair, give sense to the efforts of the participants, provide an opportunity to differentiate from others and unite all in a conceptual way. -
