Ses deux sites de Saint-Imier et de Moutier s’inscrivent dans une « géographie hospitalière » assez dense, avec des villes relativement proches (Bienne, Delémont, La Chaux-de-Fonds). Les chiffres démontrent cependant que cet hôpital répond à un fort besoin : en 2010, il a accueilli près de 4400 patients hospitalisés, ce qui représente une augmentation de 44% en six ans. Tout laisse penser que ce dynamisme va encore se renforcer en 2012 avec l’ouverture des frontières de la LaMal. Directeur de HJB depuis plus de 20 ans, M. Jean-Claude Chatelain commente l’attrait de HJB avec modestie, conscient qu’il reflète avant tout l’attachement de la population à son hôpital de proximité et la fidélité de ses collaborateurs.

Its two sites at Saint- Imier and Moutier are part of a reasonably dense «hospital geography», with relatively close towns (Biel/Bienne, Delémont, La Chaux-de-Fonds). However, the figures show that this hospital responds to a real need: in 2010 it cared for almost 4,400 in- patients, which represents an increase of 44% over six years. Everything indicates that this dynamism will continue to strengthen in 2012, with borders being opened up by Swiss health insurer LaMal. A director at HJB for more than 20 years, Mr Jean-Claude Chatelain talks modestly about HJB’s appeal, conscious that it primarily reflects the attachment of local residents to their local hospital and the loyalty of its staff. A S s i o n r e b a r u J u d l a t i p ô H © Are the sites at Saint-Imier and Moutier allocated different missions? So you have absolutely no reason to fear LaMal opening up the borders in The two hospitals have the same mission and provide the same care services, 2012.

  • Switzerland 4Th Periodical Report
    Strasbourg, 15 December 2009 MIN-LANG/PR (2010) 1 EUROPEAN CHARTER FOR REGIONAL OR MINORITY LANGUAGES Fourth Periodical Report presented to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in accordance with Article 15 of the Charter SWITZERLAND Periodical report relating to the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages Fourth report by Switzerland 4 December 2009 SUMMARY OF THE REPORT Switzerland ratified the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (Charter) in 1997. The Charter came into force on 1 April 1998. Article 15 of the Charter requires states to present a report to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe on the policy and measures adopted by them to implement its provisions. Switzerland‘s first report was submitted to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in September 1999. Since then, Switzerland has submitted reports at three-yearly intervals (December 2002 and May 2006) on developments in the implementation of the Charter, with explanations relating to changes in the language situation in the country, new legal instruments and implementation of the recommendations of the Committee of Ministers and the Council of Europe committee of experts. This document is the fourth periodical report by Switzerland. The report is divided into a preliminary section and three main parts. The preliminary section presents the historical, economic, legal, political and demographic context as it affects the language situation in Switzerland. The main changes since the third report include the enactment of the federal law on national languages and understanding between linguistic communities (Languages Law) (FF 2007 6557) and the new model for teaching the national languages at school (—HarmoS“ intercantonal agreement).

  • Bernese Anabaptist History: a Short Chronological Outline (Jura Infos in Blue!)
    Bernese Anabaptist History: a short chronological outline (Jura infos in blue!) 1525ff Throughout Europe: Emergence of various Anabaptist groups from a radical reformation context. Gradual diversification and development in different directions: Swiss Brethren (Switzerland, Germany, France, Austria), Hutterites (Moravia), Mennonites [Doopsgezinde] (Netherlands, Northern Germany), etc. First appearance of Anabaptists in Bern soon after 1525. Anabaptists emphasized increasingly: Freedom of choice concerning beliefs and church membership: Rejection of infant baptism, and practice of “believers baptism” (baptism upon confession of faith) Founding of congregations independent of civil authority Refusal to swear oaths and to do military service “Fruits of repentance”—visible evidence of beliefs 1528 Coinciding with the establishment of the Reformation in Bern, a systematic persecution of Anabaptists begins, which leads to their flight and migration into rural areas. Immediate execution ordered for re-baptized Anabaptists who will not recant (Jan. 1528). 1529 First executions in Bern (Hans Seckler and Hans Treyer from Lausen [Basel] and Heini Seiler from Aarau) 1530 First execution of a native Bernese Anabaptist: Konrad Eichacher of Steffisburg. 1531 After a first official 3-day Disputation in Bern with reformed theologians, well-known and successful Anabaptist minister Hans Pfistermeyer recants. New mandate moderates punishment to banishment rather than immediate execution. An expelled person who returns faces first dunking, and if returning a second time, death by drowning . 1532 Anabaptist and Reformed theologians meet for several days in Zofingen: Second Disputation. Both sides declare a victory. 1533 Further temporary moderation of anti-Anabaptist measures: Anabaptists who keep quiet are tolerated, and even if they do not, they no longer face banishment, dunking or execution, but are imprisoned for life at their own expense.

  • Switzerland – a Model for Solving Nationality Conflicts?
    PEACE RESEARCH INSTITUTE FRANKFURT Bruno Schoch Switzerland – A Model for Solving Nationality Conflicts? Translation: Margaret Clarke PRIF-Report No. 54/2000 © Peace Research Institute Frankfurt (PRIF) II Summary Since the disintegration of the socialist camp and the Soviet Union, which triggered a new wave of state reorganization, nationalist mobilization, and minority conflict in Europe, possible alternatives to the homogeneous nation-state have once again become a major focus of attention for politicians and political scientists. Unquestionably, there are other instances of the successful "civilization" of linguistic strife and nationality conflicts; but the Swiss Confederation is rightly seen as an outstanding example of the successful politi- cal integration of differing ethnic affinities. In his oft-quoted address of 1882, "Qu’est-ce qu’une nation?", Ernest Renan had already cited the confederation as political proof that the nationality principle was far from being the quasi-natural primal ground of the modern nation, as a growing number of his contemporaries in Europe were beginning to believe: "Language", said Renan, "is an invitation to union, not a compulsion to it. Switzerland... which came into being by the consent of its different parts, has three or four languages. There is in man something that ranks above language, and that is will." Whether modern Switzerland is described as a multilingual "nation by will" or a multi- cultural polity, the fact is that suggestions about using the Swiss "model" to settle violent nationality-conflicts have been a recurrent phenomenon since 1848 – most recently, for example, in the proposals for bringing peace to Cyprus and Bosnia. However, remedies such as this are flawed by their erroneous belief that the confederate cantons are ethnic entities.

Ce travail a obtenu Le Prix des Thèses 1976 de la Société Jurassienne d'Emulation. IV RESUME Une cluse jurassienne caractéristique, celle du Pichoux, est étudiée sous divers aspects. La localisation de la cluse dans l'anticlinal de Raimeux dépend en premier lieu d'un ensellement- d'axe au toit de l'imperméable oxfordien, ainsi que d'un relais axial dans le coeur de Dogger. Les systèmes de fissuration, principalement les deux sys­ tèmes cisaillants dextre et sénestre, ont fourni la trame sur laquel­ le s'est imprimée la cluse. Hydrogéologiquement, celle-ci fait office de niveau de base karstique pour de vastes territoires situés surtout à l'W ("bordure orientale des Franches-Montagnes). La principale sour­ ce karstique qui y jaillit est celle de Blanches Fontaines: surface du bassin 48,8 km^; débit moyen annuel 1,25 m3/sec; valeur moyenne de l'ablation karstique totale: 0,082 mm/an.

The Jura / Berne Cantons border dispute. By: Stéphane Rosière Stéphane Rosière, 2015, « Switzerland – Jura / Berne Cantons border dispute », in Emmanuel Brunet-Jailly (Ed.), Encyclopedia of Border Conflicts, Santa Barbara (CA), ABC-Clio publisher, vol. 2, Positionnal disputes, pp.428-434. Summary: The Swiss Jura / Berne border dispute is linked to the discordance between the political border of the Swiss Bern and Jura Cantons, and the linguistic border between French and German speaking populations. From 1815, Bern Canton has had a large French speaking population. The French speakers gained the right to create their own new Canton called ‘Canton of Jura’ following a 1974 referendum. But the border between Bern and Jura Cantons is still contested. On November 24th, 2013, a second referendum over self- determination has occurred making is clear that 71.8% of Berne Canton residents do not want to join in but for a primarily francophone city, Moutier, where 55.4% want to move over to the Canton of Jura.
