*This is the Free Content version of my interview with Dr. Lars de Wildt. To access the entire episode, please consider becoming a Tier 1 'Gates of Argonath' member on Patreon, or you can purchase this episode for a one-time fee. My guest this month is Dr. Lars de Wildt. Lars is Assistant Professor in Media and Cultural Industries at the Centre for Media and Journalism Studies, at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands.Lars studies how media cultures and industries make contemporary worldviews. Examples are how media industries construct 'global' culture and how local audiences consume it; how Western game developers sold religion to secular audiences; how online platforms birth conspiracy theories; and how Western videogames adapt to Chinese players and policies.His first book, The Pop Theology of Videogames: Producing and Playing with Religion was published Open Access with Amsterdam University Press. Lars was part of the AHRC-funded project "Everything Is Connected: Conspiracy Theories in the Age of the Internet," was previously a (visiting) researcher at the universities of Leuven, Heidelberg, Bremen, Tampere, Jyväskylä, Montréal, and Deakin, and is working on an NWO Veni project about how the hegemonic worldviews of Western videogames adapt to Chinese players and policies. He is also a Member of YARN (Young ARts Network), anEssay-editor of Tijdschrift Sociologie/ Sociology Magazine, a Fellow at the Centre for Religion, Conflict and Globalization, at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands, a Member of Faculty of the Consultative Body for Teaching Policy (FOO), and a Research Fellow at the Institute for Media Studies, at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium.In this interview, Lars discusses his book The Pop Theology of Videogames: Producing and Playing with Religion. In it, he is offered up the question by a game designer, “what does religion have to do with video games, anyway?” This question opens our discussion on the relationship between games and religion, the differences between developers and players approaches to gaming, how video games can affect players' worldviews, and how role-playing games can potentially contribute to a sense of personal identity. These are just a few of the points Lars covers in this interview. PROGRAM NOTESDr. Lars de Wildt - dr. L.A.W.J.

In a collaboration between educators from the University of Leuven — who recently organized a conference on the future of schooling — and the ATTC school leadership program, this is a special series of Leading Education with Heart and Soul about the grammar of schooling. Each episode explores one or two key dimensions of what constitutes the fundamental “grammar” of schooling. This time, we ask: can we have, imagine, or create a school without… language and class? Guests are Jorge Larrossa Bondia and Jan Masschelein, and these are their thoughts:Writing puts spoken language at a distance and allows us to reflect on spoken language to deepen our thinking. School provides the time and space to slow down, write, and rethink.At school, it's not about saying what you think, but thinking about what you say. It's also not about which language is dominant, but how one relates to language.Language is a real problem, it is a way of engaging with real worlds, like mathematics and Latin. Learning a second language gives the experience of what language means and does.Language is not merely a tool for communication. It is a practice rooted in love and curiosity, like philology, the science of language as love for language.There are three ways to think about class, our second dimension: as a physical space, as a random grouping of students, and as a space that enables freedom and equality — a collective of learners, not individuals with fixed identities.Both school and class exist to nurture worlds. When they become too focused on teachers, students, personalization, identification, or “natural development,” they loose their essence.You can pedagogically redesign class, but not as learning environment or learning accelerator.This podcast has been made possible through the support of the ATTC School Leadership Program, the educational consultancy School Matters, and the retreat facility The Valley of the Good Life.
Alle ogen zijn vandaag op Turkije gericht. Het is gastland voor zowel diplomatieke gesprekken tussen Rusland en Oekraïne als voor een NAVO-overleg. Is Turkije dan zo'n grote wereldspeler? In Mexico wordt de moord op een jonge influencer onderzocht als femicide. Waarom is dat geweld tegen vrouwen specifiek in Mexico zo groot? En in Leuven vindt de Beiaardcantus plaats: past die studentikoze traditie nog wel in 2025?
Eén van de grootste toeristische trekpleisters van Nederland zet een opvallende stap. De Zaanse Schans gaat een toegang heffen van 17,50 euro. Met dat plan wil de gemeente Zaanstad iets doen tegen het massatoerisme in het gebied. Maar: het plan stuit op fel verzet van ondernemers. Hans van der Steeg gaat hierover in gesprek met: - Marieke Verweij, directeur van het Zaans Museum - Jan van der Borg, hoogleraar toerisme aan de universiteit van Leuven, die de situatie van de Zaanse Schans onderzocht.
Onze 2de show van de Parking Tour bracht ons naar een uitverkocht Depot in het prachtige Leuven. Radiomaker Stijn Van de Voorde kwam is een van onze favoriete gasten ook al beseft hij dat zelf niet, denken we en we waren erg blij dat hij zijn Video Killed The Videostar theatershow kwam voorstellen. Een show waarin hij op hilarische wijze de geschiedenis van de videoclip fileert. Afsluiten werd er gedaan met de enige echte Natalia; zonder twijfel één van de meest charismatische zangeressen die er in ons land rondlopen. Het verhaal van Natalia Druyts mocht dan wel bekend zijn, toch blij dat we in deze live ook een andere en gevoelige kant hebben mogen zien. En die verhalen over Lionel Ritchie vergeten we nooit meer. Een heel fijne avond dus met 2 heel straffe mensen. EnjoyZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Na de handelsdeal met het Verenigd Koninkrijk van gisteren rijst de vraag of ook China en de VS dichter naar een akkoord groeien. Juist met China botste president Trump het felst sinds het begin van de door hem ontketende handelsoorlog. Dit weekend ontmoeten beide landen elkaar in Zwitserland. De gesprekken volgen nadat de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump in april een importheffing van 145% aan China oplegde, waarop China reageerde met een importheffing van 125%. Zullen de partijen bereid zijn de handelsoorlog te de-escaleren? We spreken erover met Dorien Emmers, sinoloog verbonden aan de universiteit in Leuven. (11:16) Oekraïense dilemma's Oekraïners die uit de door Rusland bezette stad Marioepol zijn gevlucht staan voor een onmogelijke keus. Als ze wegblijven verliezen ze hun huis. Maar als ze teruggaan moeten ze leven onder Russische heerschappij. Het is een van de vele dilemma's van de Oekraïners op dit moment. Want wat voor plan kun je maken als je niet weet wanneer de oorlog is afgelopen en wat daarna nog van Oekraïne is? Iemand die bijna fulltime aan het voorsorteren is op het Oekraïne van na de oorlog is stedenbouwkundige Fulco Treffers. Vandaag is hij te gast in de studio. Presentatie: Tim de Wit
Liz Pelly has been closely following the evolution of Spotify and other music streaming services and the effect they have had on the music sector and musicians themselves for several years. Her book, Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist (Atria, 2025), paints a depressing picture of how the company has exploited the popularity of playlists to grab a larger share of the money we spend on recorded music. Along with the record companies, Spotify has done this at the expense of musicians themselves and especially those is less popular areas like jazz and classical. I spoke to Liz at an event in Brussels organised by music venue Ancienne Belgique. Later we were joined by Jozefien Vanharpe of Leuven university, professor of intellectual property law, and Nick Yule of AEPO Artis, an association for collecting societies for performing artists.

In a collaboration between educators from the University of Leuven — who recently organized a conference on the future of schooling — and the ATTC school leadership program, this is a special series of Leading Education with Heart and Soul about the grammar of schooling. Each episode explores one or two key dimensions of what constitutes the fundamental “grammar” of schooling. This time, we ask: can we have, imagine, or create a school without… the invisible and the body? Guests are Daniel Goyvota and Walter Kohan, and we discussed two often-overlooked dimensions of schooling: the invisible dynamics and embodied experiences that escape formal measurement and quantification. These are their thoughts:In an era dominated by datafication, schools, unlike tech corporations, produce relatively little data. Yet they are saturated with invisible layers: emotional, social, and relational dynamics.Rather than relying solely on measurable data and standard metrics, according to Daniel we should explore these invisible layers through Cryptics, a more open, flexible language that helps tracing the tacit and shadowed languages of learners.The use of Cryptics functions as a counterweight to hypervisibility and surveillance. With Cryptics we can protect the hidden and invisible aspects of school.Walter states that the visible and invisible can be compared to the physical and the mental. But maybe it's more accurate to say there are both visible and invisible bodies and minds.Education should focus on real people with real bodies and minds, even if they don't fit the perfect mold.This is especially important in thinking about gender and identity, asking: what is hidden, and what new realities might we discover.This podcast has been made possible through the support of the ATTC School Leadership Program, the educational consultancy School Matters, and the retreat facility The Valley of the Good Life.

In a collaboration between educators from the University of Leuven — who recently organized a conference on the future of schooling — and the ATTC school leadership program, this is a special series of Leading Education with Heart and Soul about the grammar of schooling. Each episode explores one or two key dimensions of what constitutes the fundamental “grammar” of schooling. This time, we ask: can we have, imagine, or create a school without… politics and schoolwork? Guests are José Miguel Vargas-Pellicer and Inés Dussel, and these are their thoughts:José Miguel uses politics not in the sense of governance, but in the sense of the Greek idea of schole, which means that school is a free pedagogical space for shared attention and study.The school seen as schole introduces newcomers to the world, so we as a society must collectively decide what is important for them to study. This requires an ongoing conversation about the common good, particularly in multicultural and multiethnic societies.From this perspective, school is a site of radical equality, a precondition for political life itself.Schoolwork, our second dimension, is not simply about academic tasks, but a specific mode of attention, perception, and disciplined engagement — a translation of oral into written expression, embedded in rituals and gestures. It is a communal activity that invites everyone to the table as equals.School is the only place where you're asked, through schoolwork, to validate what you've learned and to critically engage with it.Schoolwork extends beyond the classroom to communal spaces such as playgrounds and kitchens, each with its own pedagogical logic. Today, however, schoolwork is increasingly individualized, undermining its collective ethos.

In een samenwerking tussen pedagogen van de universiteit Leuven, die begin 2025 een congres organiseerden over de toekomst van de school, en de schoolleidersopleiding ATTC maken we een speciale serie van Onderwijs leiden met hart en ziel over de grammatica van de school. Elke aflevering gaat over een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… vorming?Te gast zijn Maarten Simons en Jan Masschelein en we spreken over vorming:Het woord vorming wordt vaak geassocieerd met Bildung of persoonlijke ontwikkeling, maar de schoolse vorming gaat juist over een soort mondiale vorming.De schoolse vorming draagt een zorg voor werelden en is niet alleen de plek waar de leerling als ik iets leer. Het schoolwerk is een collectieve manier van stilstaan, oefenen en studeren.De wereld heeft dus ook de school nodig, en de leerling, om opnieuw benoemd te worden, zoals een vogel opnieuw een naam krijgtals leerlingen zeggen: dit is een mees.Schoolse vorming betekent niet dat we van leerling-gecentreerd naar wereld-gecentreerd onderwijs gaan. Het gaat juist niet over de creatie van centra, maar om het vormen van een midden, een milieu, waar de diverse werelden, leerlingen en leerkrachten elkaar ontmoeten.Door de diverse werelden in school te brengen en te laten bestuderen en bevragen, worden nieuwe generaties telkens als nieuwkomers uitgenodigd te leren omgaan met die werelden.Schoolse vorming duurt lang, heeft tijd nodig, en is niet gericht op versnelling en resultaten.Schoolse vorming ziet alle leerlingen als pedagogische gelijken, want iedereen is leerling, en geeft hun pedagogische vrijheid, omdat de school hen niet vastpint op hun identiteit, talent of een andere voorbestemming, en hun de kans biedt zichzelf naar eigen idee te vormen. De school vertrekt van het idee dat onze kinderen niet onze kinderen zijn, dus de levensvisie van de ouders of de school als community met een identiteit, is pedagogisch secundair.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.

Het kan ook nooit eens twee weken normaal en voorspelbaar in de BNXT League, en daarom houden we zo van deze competitie. Oostende lijkt afgehaakt, zodat underdog Mechelen en de Kortrijkse knapen om de BNXT-titel gaan spelen. Onderin is degradatie nog niet zeker, maar wel erg lastig te voorkomen voor QSTA.

Elke aflevering gaat over een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… leraar en leerlingen?Te gast zijn Maarten Simons en Rembert Dejans we spreken over de leraar en de leerlingen. Aspecten zijn:De leraar heeft een tussenpositie tussen het vak of de vakken en de leerlingen.Die tussenpositie maakt de leraar kwetsbaar. Niet alleen omdat ouders, overheid en samenleving meekijken in de school, maar vanwege de dubbele liefde tussen vak en leerling.De school zet de wereld centraal opdat leerlingen zelf vormgeven aan wie ze willen zijn. De wereld heeft de leraar nodig, omdat in de school, werelden worden meegedeeld. De leraar deelt die werelden met de klas en zet de eigen persoon niet in de spotlight.De leraar kan de eigen mening of overtuiging delen met leerlingen, maar heeft de verantwoordelijkheid om daar andere meningen, overtuigingen en werelden naast te zetten.Het is de leraar die leerlingen tot leerling maakt door te zeggen: probeer… en nog een keer. Daarmee kijk je met een pedagogische bril naar de leraar en niet met een sociologische bril.Deze performativiteit van de leraar is een manier van werken door leerlingen te laten oefenen. Het kan mislukken, dat de leerling geen leerling wordt, wanneer het te veel om prestaties gaat.Deze manier van werken maakt dat de school een eigen pedagogische wereld of atmosfeer is en dat er een vorm van gezamenlijke lichamelijkheid en sfeer is en dat leren ook lichamelijk is.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.
Rowana Vanroy is campagneleider voor Animal Rights. In deze episode hebben we het met haar over dierenproeven en voornamelijk ook over de demonstratie die Animal Rights in verband met de wereldproefdierendag gaat organiseren tegen dierproeven. Op 24 april 2025 is er namelijk in Leuven een demonstratie tegen het gebruik van dieren voor testen. We spreken over de testen en zeker ook over het belang van deze demonstratie en hoe we kunnen bereiken dat dit zal stoppen.
Het was genieten in Rotterdam, Enschede, Leuven en Parijs: overal vonden marathons plaats. Maar, worden deze events niet té massaal? En is de instapdrempel om mee te doen stiekem niet een beetje te laag geworden? Hans en Tim buigen zich over dit vraagstuk en kijken daarnaast naar de PTO, een hardleerse Sam Long en natuurlijk het NK Duathlon in Sittard.
De eerste editie van de European Running Championships in Leuven en Brussel was een succes. Zowel elites als amateurs gaven het beste van zichzelf. Maar naast de sportieve prestaties, viel vooral het verhaal van marathonloopster Hanne Verbruggen op. Door intimidatie van haar tegenstanders, viel Verbruggen flauw en liep ze een podiumplaats mis. Opmerkelijk, maar wordt er vaker getrashtalkt tijdens een marathon? (Ex-)atleten Eline Berings, Pieter-Jan Hannes en Astrid Verhoeven geven het antwoord.
Het EK Roadrunning 2025 is achter de rug en het heeft niet ontgoocheld. Een zoveelste sport hoogdag in Leuven waar buiten het EK ook gestreden werd voor het clubkampioenschap van de Brokkenlopers. Seppe had de ambitie om Europees kampioen te worden bij de vrouwen, Stijn Baeten vertolkte perfect de rol van bodyguard en Joris Keppens haalde een zilveren team medaille.
In een samenwerking tussen pedagogen van de universiteit Leuven, die begin 2025 een congres organiseerden over de toekomst van de school, en de schoolleidersopleiding ATTC maken we een speciale serie van Onderwijs leiden met hart en ziel over de grammatica van de school. Elke aflevering gaat over een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… speelplaats of school yard en schoolgerei of tools?Te gast zijn Pieter Verstraete en Jan Masschelein en we spreken over de volgende aspecten van speelplaats en schoolgerei:Als school yard heeft de speelplaats of het schoolplein in het Nederlands ook een schoolse functie. Een school zonder school yard is geen school meer, een school zonder speelplaats wel.Spelen en de speelplaats zijn sinds de 17e eeuw in het Westen speciaal iets voor kinderen geworden, want volgende de kapitalistische logica was werken iets voor volwassenen.De speelplaats is niet bedoeld voor pauze of rust, dan denk je weer kapitalistisch productief. De presentie van leraren op de speelplaats is bedoeld als zorg, ook vanwege de mogelijk negatieve sociale dynamiek, en niet voor panoptische overcontrolering of sociale educaties.De speelplaats heeft een anarchistische werking als ze zand in de motor van school brengt.De speelplaats geeft kinderen de tijd van de seizoenen, van de spelletjes en van de beleving van het moment. De school kan ook die belevingstijd geven, wanneer ze werkt als een vrije tegenwoordige tijd, waarin leerlingen de vreugde ervaren van het studeren en het oefenen.Voor dit idee van school zijn directe instructie en Google School funest, want die helpen het leren wel effectief versnellen, maar schoolse vorming werkt juist door te vertragen.Het specifieke schoolgerei, zoals het bord of de pen, is juist bedoeld om te vertragen, om ergens de tijd voor te nemen om te oefenen. Podcastapparatuur en een klassieke camera zouden nieuw schoolgerei kunnen zijn, omdat ze vertragingstijd bieden om te studeren.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.

Voor deze aflevering van ‘Alle registers open' reist Elsbeth Gruteke naar Leuven in België. Ze ontmoet daar in de Sint-Michielskerk de Italiaanse Francesca Ajossa achter het unieke Contiusorgel. Francesca volgde muziekonderwijs in Italië. Hoe kwam het dat zij zich in Nederland ging vestigen? Zelf had ze nooit verwacht dat ze binnen de muziek een carrière zou opbouwen. Immers, ook in Italië leeft het idee dat je van muziek niet goed rond kunt komen. Je moet een ‘echte baan hebben', zo wordt er gedacht. Maar toen Francesca besloten had om toch de muziek in te gaan, was de knop definitief om. Ze speelt met hart en ziel en het is haar lust en haar leven. Vooral de brede keuze binnen het muziekrepertoire maakt het orgelspelen zo gevarieerd en dat is iets wat haar boeit en goed bij haar past. Wil je meer orgelmuziek beluisteren?

Elke aflevering gaat over een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… curriculum?Te gast zijn Maarten Simons en Rembert Dejans we spreken over de volgende aspecten van het curriculum:Curriculum kan prescriptief en descriptief benaderd worden, dus enerzijds als inhouden en vaardigheden die een leerling moeten leren, anderzijds als in curriculum vitae, dus na afloop terugkijkend vragen: wat heeft de school met mij gedaan?Curriculum als een leefwereld of een proces, in plaats van alleen de focus op het eindproduct en zo efficiënt en effectief mogelijk van A naar B te gaan. Wat daartussen net zo belangrijk.Curriculum als hardloop track, een ruimte en tijd die je bewust creëert om te kunnen oefenen in plaats van een instrument om het onderwijs te controleren.Curriculum als een manier om leerlingen tot het midden te brengen, het punt waarop ze elke richting uit kunnen. Je leert niet om schrijver te worden, wel om alles te kunnen schrijven.Curriculum als het leren van nieuwe werelden, maar ook van een andere verhouding met wat je al kent, zoals leren schrijven een nieuwe verhouding tot je moedertaal is.Curriculum als transformatie van de inhouden die de samenleving van belang acht en in vertrouwen overdraagt aan de school. Niet als uitvoeringsprogramma, maar als middel voor leraren om inhouden op tafel te leggen waar leerlingen mee kunnen oefenen.Curriculum als enerzijds een manier waarop de samenleving haar verwachting naar het onderwijs uitdrukt, in termen van inhouden, anderzijds als de vraag van de school aan de samenleving om haar verantwoordelijkheid op te nemen over wat op tafel moet komen.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.
Een student gynaecologie verkrachtte een studente in Leuven. Hij krijgt geen gevangenisstraf, geen strafblad, en hoeft alleen een schadevergoeding te betalen.

In een samenwerking tussen pedagogen van de universiteit Leuven, die begin 2025 een congres organiseerden over de toekomst van de school, en de schoolleidersopleiding ATTC maken we een speciale serie van Onderwijs leiden met hart en ziel over de grammatica van de school. Elke aflevering gaat over een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… gebouw?Te gast zijn Maarten Van den Driesche en Jan Masschelein en we spreken over de volgende aspecten van de school als gebouw:De school als een configuratie van ruimtes, kamers, lokalen en gemeenschappelijke ruimten.De school als meer dan alleen een klas en leren, maar ook als een plek van pedagogisch leven, die ook een plek is van gedeeld, publiek leven, misschien wel de laatste.De schoolinrichting geeft aan welke inhouden je centraal wilt plaatsen. Is dat alleen taal en rekenen, omdat dit de basis zou zijn? Of het tekenlokaal, omdat het om leren aanschouwen gaat. Of de keuken of de sportzaal, vanwege het lichamelijke?De school moet onzichtbaarheid toestaan, zodat leerlingen zich kunnen vormen op een manier die niet op voorhand bepaald is, om te kunnen worden wie ze willen zijn.De school is een sterke materialisatie is van een belofte dat iedereen alles kan leren. De belofte op een open toekomst en die van een vrije tijd. De tijd om je te kunnen vormen.Kinderen worden door het schoolgebouw ook met het verleden geconfronteerd. Het nieuwe dat met het oude in contact komt.Het digitale ligt ook op tafel in de school, om het te bestuderen en je als leerling toe te verhouden, net als met taal, rekenen en andere werelden.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.
This week, after five years of research, two newly discovered antiviral molecules have been shown to combat coronaviruses. Johan Neyts of the Rega Institute for Medical Research in Leuven outlines how he hopes the new molecule developed by his team might help us deal with emerging pandemics in the future. But as the US halts all Covid related research, will drugs like these ever hit the shelves? Among the grants terminated this week by the National Institute for Health is a programme called AViDD, AntiViral Drug Discovery, supporting 9 independent consortia. Annette von Delft of Oxford University and Ed Griffen of the drugs discovery company MedChemica spoke to us about the overnight shut down of years of work and importance of antiviral development. The longest ever carbon-based molecules have been discovered by the Mars Curiosity rover. Caroline Freissinet of the Laboratoire Atmosphères et Observations Spatiales talked us through the meticulous planning and geological chance that made this possible, and whether these long chain alkanes could be a clue to discovering life on mars. Researchers at Vanderbilt University have been delving into the genetic evolution of horses to discover the mutation that's behind their runaway metabolic success. Gianni Castiglione explains how a mutation that should have been catastrophic instead helped horses to evolve from the size of dogs to the giant athletic animals we know today.

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Fernanda Fonseca Rosenblatt, D.Phil., to the Restorative Works! Podcast. Join us as Dr. Rosenblatt discusses the critical shortcomings of the conventional criminal justice system in addressing gendered violence and explores how restorative justice offers a survivor-centered alternative. Survivors often face secondary victimization, navigating a system that can be dismissive, retraumatizing, or focused solely on punitive measures. Dr. Rosenblatt highlights research from around the world demonstrating how restorative practices—when done properly—can empower survivors, offer meaningful accountability, and provide justice that prioritizes safety and agency. She also dispels common myths about restorative justice, including misconceptions about mandatory face-to-face encounters. Dr. Fernanda Fonseca Rosenblatt is an Associate Professor at the IIRP. She also serves as the book review editor for the International Journal of Restorative Justice. She is also a member of the Research Committee of the European Forum for Restorative Justice. Dr. Rosenblatt has contributed to United Nations initiatives on multiple occasions, including serving as an expert reviewer for the latest edition of the United Nations Handbook on Restorative Programmes and as a Portuguese-speaking expert for the translation of the Restorative Justice Module of the Education for Justice project by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). Fernanda earned her doctoral degree in Criminology from the University of Oxford in 2014 and a master's in Criminology from the Catholic University of Leuven in 2005. Tune in to learn more about Dr. Rosenblatt's research and perspective, and check out her Presidential Paper Gendered violence and restorative justice: giving survivors voice and choice.
The Capitalism and Freedom in the Twenty-First Century Podcast
Jon Hartley and Eugene Fama discuss Gene's career at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business since the 1960s and helping to start Dimensional Fund Advisers (DFA) in the 1980s, fat tails, the rise of modern portfolio theory, efficient markets versus behavioral finance, factor-based investing, the role of intermediaries, and whether asset prices are elastic versus inelastic with respect to demand. Recorded on March 14, 2025. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS: Eugene F. Fama, 2013 Nobel laureate in economic sciences, is widely recognized as the "father of modern finance." His research is well-known in both the academic and investment communities. He is strongly identified with research on markets, particularly the efficient markets hypothesis. He focuses much of his research on the relation between risk and expected return and its implications for portfolio management. His work has transformed the way finance is viewed and conducted. Fama is a prolific author, having written two books and published more than 100 articles in academic journals. He is among the most cited researchers in economics. In addition to the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences, Fama was the first elected fellow of the American Finance Association in 2001. He is also a fellow of the Econometric Society and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was the first recipient of three major prizes in finance: the Deutsche Bank Prize in Financial Economics (2005), the Morgan Stanley American Finance Association Award for Excellence in Finance (2007), and the Onassis Prize in Finance (2009). Other awards include the 1982 Chaire Francqui (Belgian National Science Prize), the 2006 Nicholas Molodovsky Award from the CFA Institute recognizing his work in portfolio theory and asset pricing, and the 2007 Fred Arditti Innovation Award given by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Center for Innovation. He was awarded doctor of law degrees by the University of Rochester and DePaul University, a doctor honoris causa by the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium, and a doctor of science honoris causa by Tufts University. Fama earned a bachelor's degree from Tufts University in 1960, followed by an MBA and PhD from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business (now the Booth School) in 1964. He joined the GSB faculty in 1963. Fama is a father of four and a grandfather of ten. He is an avid golfer, an opera buff, and a former windsurfer and tennis player. He is a member of Malden Catholic High School's athletic hall of fame. Jon Hartley is currently a Policy Fellow at the Hoover Institution, an economics PhD Candidate at Stanford University, a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity (FREOPP), a Senior Fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, and an Affiliated Scholar at the Mercatus Center. Jon also is the host of the Capitalism and Freedom in the 21st Century Podcast, an official podcast of the Hoover Institution, a member of the Canadian Group of Economists, and the chair of the Economic Club of Miami. Jon has previously worked at Goldman Sachs Asset Management as a Fixed Income Portfolio Construction and Risk Management Associate and as a Quantitative Investment Strategies Client Portfolio Management Senior Analyst and in various policy/governmental roles at the World Bank, IMF, Committee on Capital Markets Regulation, U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and the Bank of Canada. Jon has also been a regular economics contributor for National Review Online, Forbes and The Huffington Post and has contributed to The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, USA Today, Globe and Mail, National Post, and Toronto Star among other outlets. Jon has also appeared on CNBC, Fox Business, Fox News, Bloomberg, and NBC and was named to the 2017 Forbes 30 Under 30 Law & Policy list, the 2017 Wharton 40 Under 40 list and was previously a World Economic Forum Global Shaper. ABOUT THE SERIES: Each episode of Capitalism and Freedom in the 21st Century, a video podcast series and the official podcast of the Hoover Economic Policy Working Group, focuses on getting into the weeds of economics, finance, and public policy on important current topics through one-on-one interviews. Host Jon Hartley asks guests about their main ideas and contributions to academic research and policy. The podcast is titled after Milton Friedman‘s famous 1962 bestselling book Capitalism and Freedom, which after 60 years, remains prescient from its focus on various topics which are now at the forefront of economic debates, such as monetary policy and inflation, fiscal policy, occupational licensing, education vouchers, income share agreements, the distribution of income, and negative income taxes, among many other topics.

Bruder Julian Bruder Julian studiert gerade ein Semester in Leuven, Belgien. Was für neue Erfahrungen er dort gemacht hat und welche Auswirken sie auf seinen Glauben haben, zeigt er uns in seinem Sonntagsimpuls. [Evangelium: Lukas, Kapitel 6, Verse 27 bis 38] In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Euch, die ihr zuhört, sage ich: Liebt eure Feinde; tut denen Gutes, die euch hassen! Segnet die, die euch verfluchen; betet für die, die euch beschimpfen! Dem, der dich auf die eine Wange schlägt, halt auch die andere hin und dem, der dir den Mantel wegnimmt, lass auch das Hemd! Gib jedem, der dich bittet; und wenn dir jemand das Deine wegnimmt, verlang es nicht zurück! Und wie ihr wollt, dass euch die Menschen tun sollen, das tut auch ihr ihnen! Wenn ihr die liebt, die euch lieben, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Denn auch die Sünder lieben die, von denen sie geliebt werden. Und wenn ihr denen Gutes tut, die euch Gutes tun, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Das tunauch die Sünder. Und wenn ihr denen Geld leiht, von denen ihr es zurückzubekommen hofft, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Auch die Sünder leihen Sündern, um das Gleiche zurückzubekommen. Doch ihr sollt eure Feinde lieben und Gutes tun und leihen, wo ihr nichts zurückerhoffen könnt. Dann wird euer Lohn groß sein und ihr werdet Söhne des Höchsten sein; denn auch er ist gütig gegen die Undankbaren und Bösen. Seid barmherzig, wie auch euer Vater barmherzig ist! Richtet nicht, dann werdet auch ihr nicht gerichtet werden! Verurteilt nicht, dann werdet auch ihr nicht verurteilt werden! Erlasst einander die Schuld, dann wird auch euch die Schuld erlassen werden! Gebt, dann wird auch euch gegeben werden! Ein gutes, volles, gehäuftes, überfließendes Maß wird man euch in den Schoß legen; denn nach dem Maß, mit dem ihr messt, wird auch euch zugemessen werden.

The road to Queen Elizabeth II's implementation of African reforms was rough, especially in the first two decades following her ascension to the throne. In Queen Elizabeth II and the Africans (Leuven UP, 2024), Raphael Chijioke Njoku examines Queen Elizabeth II's role in the African decolonization trajectories and the postcolonial state's quest for genuine political and economic liberation since 1947. By locating Elizabeth at the center of Anglophone Africa's independence agitations, the account harnesses the African interests to tease out the monarch's dilemma of complying with Whitehall's decolonization schemes while building an inclusive and unified Commonwealth in which Africans could play a vital role. Njoku argues that to gratify British lawmakers in her complex and marginal place within the British parliamentary system of conservative versus reformist, Elizabeth's contribution fell short of African nationalists' expectations on account of her silence and inaction during the African decolonization raptures. Yet ultimately, the author concludes, she helped build an inclusive and unified organization in which Africans could assert and appropriate political and economic autarky. Kanayo Nomeh, Ph.D. Candidate in International Relations at Florida International University, specializing in Africa's diaspora relations, superpowers and geopolitical rivalry, and African-China sociopolitical dynamics.

When engaging Muslims with the truth of Christianity, it is crucial we understand clearly not only our own doctrines but those of our Muslim friends and neighbors as well. While we use many familiar-sounding concepts, our definitions are often radically different. This week on the Profile we continue our discussion with founder and president of Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary in Aman, Jordan Dr. Imad Shehadeh. We talk more about his 2020 two-volume publication God With Us and Without Us - The Beauty and Power of Oneness in Trinity versus Absolute Oneness.

In the past stout beer has been touted for its supposed health benefits. Is there any truth to those claims - and what happens if you take the alcohol out?CrowdScience listener Aengus pondered these questions down at the pub, after noticing most of his friends were drinking non-alcoholic beers. He wondered how the non-alcoholic stuff is made – what's taken out and what's added in – and whether the final product is better for you than the alcoholic version.It's a question that takes us to Belgium, home to the experimental brewery of a global drinks company which takes the growing market for alcohol-free beer very seriously. David De Schutter, head of research and development, shows host Marnie Chesterton how to take alcohol out of beer without spoiling the flavour.We also find our way to a yeast lab in Leuven, Belgium where Kevin Verstrepen and his team have found another way to make alcohol-free beer with the help of industrious microbes: yeast varieties that brew beer without producing any alcohol in the first place. And how do they compare to the alcoholic versions? We discuss the importance of aromas in our perception of beer's taste.So should listener Aengus stick to non-alcoholic stout? We speak to scientist Tim Stockwell about the health drawbacks of alcohol, even in moderation. And gut microbiome researcher Cláudia Marques fills us in on her delicious pilot study, which looked at the effects of both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beers on our digestive tract. Along the way, Marnie taste-tests what's on the market, and asks the experts why this particular grocery shelf has become so much bigger and more flavourful in recent years.Presenter: Marnie Chesterton Producer: Sam Baker Editor: Cathy Edwards Production co-ordinator: Ishmael Soriano Technical producers: Giles Aspen, Andrew Garratt and Donald MacDonald(Image: Close-up of waitress holding craft beer at bar, Brazil Credit: FG Trade via Getty Images)
When consulting key works on urban studies, the absence of Central and Eastern European towns is striking. Cities such as Vienna, Budapest, Prague, and Trieste, where such notable figures as Freud, Ferenczi, Kafka, and Joyce lived and worked, are rarely studied in a translocal framework, as if Central and Eastern Europe were still a blind spot of European modernity. Urban Culture and the Modern City: Hungarian Case Studies (Leuven UP, 2024) expands the scope of literary urban studies by focusing on Budapest and Hungarian small towns, offering in-depth analyses of the intriguing link between literature, the arts, and material culture in the 20th and 21st centuries. The case studies situate Hungarian urban culture within the global flow of ideas as they explore the period of modernism, the mid-century, and the post-1989 era in a context that moves well beyond the borders of the country. Ágnes Györke is associate professor at Károli Gáspár University's Department of Literary and Cultural Studies in English and principal investigator of the Cosmopolitan Ethics and the Modern City research group. Tamás Juhász is associate professor at Károli Gáspár University where he teaches modern British and American literature, cultural theory and Central European film. Learn more about your ad choices.
