  • 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.

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.

  • 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) 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.

Autrefois, elles servaient aux nombreuses communes alentour d’espace d’estivage pour le bétail. Les habitants des métairies ont su développer des stratégies particulières pour lutter contre les conditions climatiques rudes et l’isolement. C’est ainsi que sont nées des coutumes et des traditions qui perdurent aujourd’hui encore dans les métairies et qui sont transmises aux visiteurs. Il est ainsi possible d’assister à la fabrication traditionnelle du fromage d’alpage ou de goûter la gentiane maison. FASZINATION MÉTAIRIES Die Geschichte der über 50 Métairies im Berner Jura geht bis ins 14. Jahrhundert zurück. Früher dienten sie den zahlreichen Gemeinden in der Umgebung als Sömmerungsge- biet für ihr Vieh. Die Bewohner der Métairies entwickelten dabei spezielle Strategien gegen die harschen klimatischen Bedingungen und die Abgeschiedenheit. Daraus ents- tanden Bräuche und Traditionen, welche in den Métairies auch heute noch gelebt, und an Gäste weitergegeben werden. So ist es beispielsweise möglich, der traditionellen Alpkäseherstellung beizuwohnen oder den selbst gebrannten Enzianschnaps zu kosten. THE FASCINATION OF «MÉTAIRIES» The history of the over 50 "métairies" (small farms worked by share-croppers) in the Bernese Jura dates back to the 14th century. In the past, the numerous local communi- ties in the area used them as summer pasture for their cattle. The occupants of the "mé- tairies" developed special strategies for withstanding the harsh climate and the remote- ness.

The IRI Guidebook describes in precise detail how direct law-making by the voters works in Switzerland and beyond, through initiative and referendum, and shows where else in the world it is taking root.” brian beedham, the economist Never before have so many people been able to vote on substantive issues. Since the in switzerland and beyond millennium, more and more countries around the world have begun to use referendums in addition to elections, and more and more people now have the possibility of exerting an influence on the political agenda by means of a right of initiative. Throughout the world, representative democracy is being reformed and modernised. Existing indirect decision- making structures are being revitalised and given greater legitimacy by the addition of direct-democratic procedures and practice. The 2008 Edition of the IRI Guidebook addresses the key issues raised during the transition to modern democracy. It offers both an introduction to and a deepening of knowledge of the world of citizen lawmaking. Features include essays on the everyday practice of direct democracy in Switzerland, Europe and the world. Factsheets include background data on many aspects of the initiative & referendum process, and a new global survey maps both procedures and practice across the world, including hotspots such as the German “Länder” and first-time referendum practitioners in countries like Costa Rica and Thailand.

    Zur Kritik einiger Thalformen und Thalnamen der Schweiz. Von Jakob Früh. (Hierzu Tafel 3.) A. Combe, Ruz und Cluse. 1. Einbürgerung des Begriffes Combe. Die von den Jurassiern längst unterschiedenen Begriffe combe, crêt, cluse, ruz sind zuerst von J.

Zwei äus- sere Umstände verleihen dieser Arbeit ohne weiteres eine hohe Bedeut- ung. Einmal enthält das Untersuchungsgebiet Thurmanns, etwa Duf.

Für Thurmann sind die. Falten ver- tikale Hebungen.

    LSE European Politics and Policy (EUROPP) Blog: The last piece of the puzzle? Making sense of the Swiss town of Moutier’s decision to leave the canton Page 1 of 4 of Bern The last piece of the puzzle? Making sense of the Swiss town of Moutier’s decision to leave the canton of Bern The Swiss town of Moutier has voted to leave the canton of Bern and join the neighbouring canton of Jura. Sean Mueller explains the complex history surrounding the decision. On 28 March, a majority of 55% of voters in the Swiss town of Moutier decided to leave the canton of Bern behind and join the canton of Jura. You are forgiven for thinking we have all been here before, for we have – almost four years ago. A slightly smaller majority of voters reached the same conclusion in the summer of 2017, but that result was later cancelled because too many irregularities had taken place before and during the vote. The voting booth is no stranger in this corner of the world, but more so than elsewhere in Switzerland, Moutier is connected to some peculiarly heated issues. History, identity and canton-building First, some context. The choice facing voters on 28 March was between Jura, with its 74,000 inhabitants, and Bern, with over a million (Figure 1). But why do voters have strong feelings about the cantons they are part of in the first place? The 26 Swiss cantons are the historical, legal, political and social foundation of the Swiss federation. Most of them were there long before contemporary Switzerland was created in 1848.
