Op het raakvlak van historische disciplines

At the Meeting Point of Historical DisciplinesThis contribution introduces the way in which the interaction between history and archaeology is examined, taking the case of the identification of a tomb and remains of Count William II of Holland, King of the Holy Roman Empire (†1256), in the former abbey church of Middelburg. It stresses the necessity of strict source criticism, which should be self-evident, but is at risk of receiving less attention. This is even truer when one of the disciplines is used as an auxiliary argument to support the other instead of a balanced approach. Wishful interpretation in such a case is a clear risk. The contribution gives some examples, before sketching the advance made thanks to the reapprochement of history and archaeology, and the consequent need for a registration system of archaeological data that can facilitate multi-disciplinary analysis. It ends with an introduction to the different stands in the dossier. This article is part of the discussion forum 'At the Meeting Point of Historical Disciplines'.Deze bijdrage biedt een inleiding op de wijze waarop de interactie tussen geschiedenis en archeologie wordt bekeken aan de hand van een casus betreffende het graf en de overblijfselen van de in 1256 gesneuvelde graaf Willem II van Holland, koning van het Heilige Roomse Rijk, in de voormalige abdijkerk van Middelburg. Hij benadrukt de noodzaak van een nauwgezette bronnenkritiek. Hoewel deze als vanzelfsprekend moet worden beschouwd, is er een zeker risico van verminderde zorgvuldigheid. Dit speelt vooral wanneer één van de disciplines wordt gebruikt als een hulp-argument, dat de uitkomsten van de andere moet ondersteunen, in plaats van een benadering waarbij beide disciplines in evenwicht zijn. Bij een onbalans is het risico van interpreteren in het licht van de gewenste uitkomst duidelijk aanwezig. De bijdrage geeft hiervan enkele voorbeelden, alvorens de vooruitgang te schetsen die is geboekt juist dankzij de toenadering tussen geschiedenis en archeologie, en aan te geven dat er behoefte is aan een registratiesysteem van archeologische gegevens dat een multidisciplinaire analyse kan faciliteren. De bijdrage eindigt met de introductie van de verschillende standpunten in het dossier. Dit artikel maakt deel uit van het discussiedossier 'Op het raakvlak van historische disciplines'.
Willem II of Floris de Voogd? Vragen rond een grafmonument en een skelet in de Koorkerk te Middelburg
Authors: Henderikx Peter 
Published: December 2015

William II or Florence the Guardian?: Questions about a Tomb and a Skeleton in the Abbey Church at MiddelburgBoth William II, Count of Holland and Zeeland and King of the Holy Roman Empire (†1256, re-interred 1282) and his brother Florence the Guardian (†1258) are buried in the Norbertine abbey church in Middelburg. In 1817 a skeleton was found in a bricked up niche, along with the remains of a tombstone on which was carved a knightly figure whose shield bears the coat of arms of Holland. Based on the results of an examination of the bones by George J.R. Maat and his team (Leiden University Medical Centre), Henderikx takes it that the skeleton could be either that of the King of the Holy Roman Empire or of Florence the Guardian. Considering that the skeleton, burial space and tombstone formed a coherent whole, and the high-relief on the tombstone almost certainly does not refer to the King of Rome but to his brother, Henderikx concludes that the skeleton must be the earthly remains of Florence the Guardian. This article is part of the discussion forum 'At the Meeting Point of Historical Disciplines'.Roomskoning Willem II, graaf van Holland en Zeeland (†1256, herbegraven 1282) en diens broer Floris de Voogd (†1258) zijn beiden in de norbertijner abdijkerk in Middelburg begraven. In 1817 werd daar in een dichtgemetselde nis een skelet aangetroffen samen met de resten van een zerk met daarop een gebeeldhouwde ridderfiguur met op diens wapenschild het wapen van Holland. Uitgaande van de resultaten van het onderzoek van het botmateriaal door George J.R. Maat cum suis (Leids Universitair Medisch Centrum) stelt Henderikx vast dat het skelet afkomstig kan zijn van zowel de Roomskoning als van Floris de Voogd. Aangezien skelet, grafruimte en zerk steeds één samenhangend geheel hebben gevormd en het beeldhouwwerk op de zerk zo goed als zeker niet naar de Roomskoning maar naar diens broer verwijst, komt Henderikx tot de conclusie dat het skelet het stoffelijk overschot moet zijn van Floris de Voogd.Dit artikel maakt deel uit van het discussiedossier 'Op het raakvlak van historische disciplines'.

Published: December 2015

<p class="p1">En Costa Rica, a pesar de que se han hecho esfuerzos por abastecer de agua segura a las comunidades afectadas por la presencia de arsénico en el líquido, una parte de la población aún se encuentra expuesta, posiblemente debido a que no están conectadas a una red de acueductos. Es por ello que en este estudio se presentan dos soluciones a nivel domiciliar para eliminar el arsénico: una por oxidación solar (SORAS) y otra por un proceso de coagulación-floculación. En ambos casos, el arsénico es removido por adsorción o coprecipitación sobre los óxidos hidróxidos de hierro (III) formados. </p><p class="p1">En el sistema SORAS se encontró que para reducir la concentración de arsénico de 200μg/L a menos de la norma (10μg/L), se necesitan entre 2h y 4h de exposición en un día soleado o nublado, respectivamente. En el sistema de coagulación-floculación, las condiciones óptimas para obtener niveles de arsénico por debajo de la norma fueron las siguientes: con floculante sintético, el pH fue 6 con 1 mg/L de FK-930-S (polímero de cloruro de polidialil-dimetilamonio) con dosis de FeCl3 12 mg/L; con floculante natural, el pH fue 6 con 250 mg/L de mozote (<em>Triumfetta semitriloba</em>), con dosis de FeCl<span class="s1">3 </span>de 14 mg/L. Un prototipo consistente en un recipiente de coagulación-fluculación y otro de filtración en arena fue capaz de tratar 15 L de agua sintética con 200μg/L As y agua natural con 10 y 50μg/L. A pesar de estos resultados, es necesario evaluar ambas técnicas en las comunidades, incluyendo aspectos de capacitación y aceptación. </p>

OBJECTIVE: To determine the care policies for both mothers and newborns implemented during and after the third stage of labor and to compare the rate of adoption of these care policies among hospitals, clinics, and midwifery birth centers in Japan.METHOD: A cross-sectional survey of the care policies affecting mothers and newborns during and after the third stage of labor was conducted from October 2010 to July 2011. A postal questionnaire with follow-up was sent to all 684 maternity institutions in Tokyo metropolitan areas.RESULTS: The overall response rate was 255 (37%). Most hospitals and clinics had a policy of early cord clamping; however, nearly 70% of the midwifery birth centers adopted the policy of waiting until the cord stopped pulsating. The policy of administering prophylactic uterotonics was adopted by 50% of the hospitals and 63% of the clinics, although midwifery birth centers did not adopt this policy. All midwifery birth centers, 50% of the hospitals, and 50% of the clinics routinely adopted the policy of early skin-to-skin contact.CONCLUSION: Adoption of various care policies differed considerably among the hospitals, clinics, and midwifery birth centers. In addition, there were several gaps between evidence-based care and care policies.
Reflective Student Practitioner – an example integrating clinical experience into the curriculum
Authors: Sparrow Claire 
Published: December 2015

<p>This project began in 2004 and involves LLB students training (in year two) and then acting as Citizens Advice Bureau (‘CAB’) advisers for 120 hours (in year three). </p><p>We have been able to incorporate this work into the existing course structure fully in third year (40 credit ‘Reflective Student Practitioner’ unit) and partially in second year (as part of a 10 credit Careers and Research Management unit), so that students undertake a substantial proportion of this work for credit. This has been possible by creating a parallel and alternative route to the existing 40 credit Legal Dissertation. Assessment in third year is by way of a 3,000 word legal essay (based on a legal topic raised in client interviews); a 3,000 word reflective analysis of their experience, a journal and three letters that they have drafted in their CAB work. This is produced through one-to-one supervision – in much the same way as one would supervise a dissertation.</p><p>Our aims in this project were to give students the opportunity to learn skills which would be of benefit in their professional lives, improve their employability and allow them to become more engaged in their local community. Portsmouth CAB was in need of more advisers and was interested in recruiting younger volunteers to establish a broader mix of advisers. The guarantee of 120 hours was a valuable commitment to them.</p><p>I propose to offer an explanation of how we manage our relationship with Portsmouth CAB and how we share responsibilities between us (for example, in training and recruitment). I also seek to evaluate what has worked well and what has been problematic in working with CAB. </p>
Situating Social Problems in the Context of Law: Fostering Public Interest Lawyers in Hong Kong
Authors: Barrow Amy 
Published: December 2015

<p>Hong Kong is often perceived as a global financial centre; an international, cosmopolitan city. Though Hong Kong has prospered economically, a myriad of social problems persist which undermine equity and social justice in society and many interest groups lack political and legal representation. Consequentially, the development of public interest law provides a pedagogical opportunity to cultivate individuals with the capacity to critically engage with and respond to social problems in society. While clinical legal education programmes provide one avenue of fostering public interest lawyers, socio-legal courses also provide a valuable means of developing socially responsible lawyers. First examining the context of Hong Kong law, this article considers the development of public interest law in Hong Kong and the role of socio-legal courses in fostering the development of public interest lawyers. Specifically, the article examines The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Faculty of Law’s flagship course, ‘The Individual, the Community and the Law’ to explore how socio-legal courses can foster socially responsible lawyers. </p>
Lawyering in a Digital Age: A Practice Report on the Design of a Virtual Law Clinic at Cumbria
Authors: Thanaraj Ann , Sales Michael 
Published: December 2015

<p>This practice paper offers a modest proposition that could make law graduates more capable of serving their clients in a modernised and efficient manner. We propose that in addition to law clinics and other forms of experiential activities, law schools could add a new type of clinical component to their curriculum that teaches students to use technology to assist in the delivery of legal services. Digital lawyering skills will help law students learn core competencies needed in an increasingly technological profession, and it may help close the gap between offering access to justice by making legal services available online in the most accessible and convenient way possible and in equipping law graduates with a modernised and digital legal education. </p>
Can We Assess What We Purport to Teach In Clinical Law Courses?
Authors: Stuckey Roy 
Published: December 2015

<p>"Assessment - evaluation: A judgment about something based on an understanding of the situation."</p><p>"Assess: to judge . . . the . . . quality . . . of something."</p><p>Many claims are made about the educational value of clinical education in law schools. Unfortunately, the first generation of clinical law teachers did not clearly articulate our educational goals nor did we fully explore how to assess the effectiveness of our instruction. Subsequent generations of clinical teachers adopted the practices of their predecessors and mentors. Consequently, many issues related to assessments of clinical students remain unexplored, and current practices tend to be neither valid nor reliable. While clinical teachers in the United Kingdom have made more progress than those in the United States, all clinical teachers need to work together to improve our understanding of assessments and to develop improved methods for finding out whether our students are learning what we purport to teach.</p><p>This article explains the importance and nature of assessments, illustrates some of the issues presented by current practices, and proposes some new directions to consider. It concludes that much work remains to be done to clarify the goals of clinical legal education and to develop valid and reliable assessment tools.</p>
A new legislative framework for mental capacity and mental health legislation in Northern Ireland: an analysis of the current proposals
Authors: McCallion Maura , O'Hare Ursula 
Published: December 2015

<p>When the Bamford Review of Mental Health and Learning Disability completed its work in the autumn of 2007, it drew to a close an extensive consultation and analysis of mental health and learning disability services and the law in Northern Ireland. Its last report on A Comprehensive Legislative Framework made<br />a compelling case for a major overhaul of the law that the Review team itself described as ‘quite radical’. The Review identified the case for reform in the need to ensure that mental health law conforms to the requirements of human rights law, reflects changes to professional practice, reflects the needs of service<br />users and their carers, and keeps pace with reform elsewhere in the UK. Alone of all the jurisdictions in the UK, Northern Ireland has been operating largely in a legislative vacuum in relation to mental capacity law. The Review’s proposals for reform therefore extended to reform of mental health law and the introduction of mental capacity law.</p><p>In the autumn of 2008 the NI Executive published its response to the Bamford Review indicating that it intended to develop the law sequentially: reform of the Mental Health (NI) Order 1986 by 2011 followed by the introduction of mental capacity law in 2014. Responses to the Executive’s consultation resulted in<br />the Department of Health Social Services and Public Safety (DHSSPS) revising its approach and it signalled its intention to bring forward mental capacity and mental health legislation together. This reated a unique opportunity in Northern Ireland for fusion of incapacity and mental health legislation. A further consultation paper was issued in January 2009, setting out the key approaches to the content<br />of two bills. However as a result of the consultation, the Health Minister Michael McGimpsey announced in September 2009 that there would be a single bill with an overall principle of autonomy. His press statement noted: “ A strong body of opinion, particularly from professional groups and lead voluntary organisations, which considered that separate mental health legislation continues to be stigmatising and recommended that mental capacity and mental health provisions should instead be encompassed into a single piece of legislation”</p><p>This short paper provides an overview of the current direction of travel on law reform in Northern Ireland. It comments on the policy climate and arguments for a fusion of mental capacity and mental health legislation. It also highlights some of the key policy issues that will need to be further explored as the Department develops its law reform proposals and concludes with some hopes and fears for the new legislation.</p>
Foreword
Authors: Horne John 
Published: December 2015

<p>Since publication of the last issue of the Journal, there has been considerable and increasing speculation about the Government’s timetable, and indeed intentions, with regards to progressing the reform of mental health legislation as outlined in the White Paper published in December 2000. As this issue goes to print, the uncertainty persists, as does the debate on what will/should be the detail of the Bill to be presented in due course to Parliament. Consistent with our aim when publishing previous issues, we intend that the contents of this issue of the Journal will contribute to that debate.</p>
Psychopathic Disorder – Concept or Chimera
Authors: Prins Herschel 
Published: December 2015

<p>This paper, which is divided into five parts, has been prompted by the continuing interest in the complex and emotive topic of psychopathic disorder1 and the possibility of a government Bill aimed at revising the current mental health legislation being introduced in 2003. The unclear nature of the condition and the controversies surrounding it are well encapsulated in the two quotations that head this paper. One or two other literary allusions will also be called in aid later.</p>
