KONSCHTHAL ESCH CONTEMPORARY ART SPACE Prior to opening in autumn 2021, while the premises are being transformed, the Konschthal Esch is presenting an exhibition cycle entitled Schaufenster (Window), showcasing a series of contemporary art installations. The Konschthal Esch will thus position itself as an essential institution for the development of the cultural network in Esch-sur-Alzette, while aiming to achieve a national and international dimension. The first exhibitions will illustrate these ambitions while laying the foundations for mediation programmes destined for an inter- generational public. Designed as a production and exhibition platform for contemporary visual arts, The Konschthal Esch will host both international contributions and local productions. It will become a place of sociocultural exchange in resonance with contemporary subjects and their repercussions in today’s art world. The Konschthal Esch will be an essential element in the cultural development strategy of Connexions. Its programme will be established in correlation with the Bridderhaus institution of artists’ residences and will form a part of the urban cultural fabric while prioritizing collaborations with other cultural institutions in Esch-sur-Alzette.

  • American Jewish Yearbook
    JEWISH STATISTICS 277 JEWISH STATISTICS The statistics of Jews in the world rest largely upon estimates. In Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and a few other countries, official figures are obtainable. In the main, however, the num- bers given are based upon estimates repeated and added to by one statistical authority after another. For the statistics given below various authorities have been consulted, among them the " Statesman's Year Book" for 1910, the English " Jewish Year Book " for 5670-71, " The Jewish Ency- clopedia," Jildische Statistik, and the Alliance Israelite Uni- verselle reports. THE UNITED STATES ESTIMATES As the census of the United States has, in accordance with the spirit of American institutions, taken no heed of the religious convictions of American citizens, whether native-born or natural- ized, all statements concerning the number of Jews living in this country are based upon estimates. The Jewish population was estimated— In 1818 by Mordecai M. Noah at 3,000 In 1824 by Solomon Etting at 6,000 In 1826 by Isaac C. Harby at 6,000 In 1840 by the American Almanac at 15,000 In 1848 by M. A. Berk at 50,000 In 1880 by Wm. B.

E. Sumerau, Ryan T. Cragun, and Trina Smith University of Tampa ABSTRACT We examine the ways Mormon leaders establish “what it means to be a man” for their followers. Based on content analysis of over 40 years of archival material, we analyze how Mormon leaders represent manhood as the ability to signify control over self and others as well as an inability to be controlled. Specifically, we demonstrate how these representations stress controlling the self, emotional and sexual expression, and others while emphasizing the development of self-reliance and independence from others’ control.

  • Current Migration Situation in the EU: Hate Crime November 2016
    HELPING TO MAKE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS A REALITY FOR EVERYONE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION Current migration situation in the EU: hate crime November 2016 Asylum seekers and migrants face various forms of violence and harassment across the European Union (EU). As this month’s report on the migration situation underscores, such acts are both perpetrated and condoned by state authorities, private individuals, as well as vigilante groups. They increasingly also target activists and politicians perceived as ‘pro-refugee’. Meanwhile, a lack of relevant data is hampering efforts to develop effective measures to prevent these incidents. Outlining recent attacks in 14 EU Member States, this focus of the November report also examines the diverse factors that undermine the reporting of such incidents and highlights promising practices seeking to counter them.
