The Netherlands-Indies : Rethinking post-colonial recognition from a multi-voiced perspective

In the communication of pain, language matters.

This requires a shared language which communicates it. Do we need a new language which can communicate and recognize the pain of the colonial past more effectively?

From living systematic reviews to meta-analytical research domains

Because of the rapidly increasing number of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and meta-analyses in many fields, there is an urgent need to step up from meta-analyses to higher levels of aggregation of outcomes of RCTs. Network meta-analyses and umbrella reviews allow higher levels of aggregation of RCT outcomes, but cannot adequately cover the evidence for a whole field.

The Fabrics of Home : Remembering the Indo-European Repatriation in Contractpensions-Djangan Loepah!

When a large group of Indo-Europeans had to repatriate to a country many had never set foot in, they set in motion an unforeseen culture of remembrance.
