摘要： Long-term reviews are necessary to appreciate the full outcomes and impacts of the scientific, societal and policy perspectives of transdisciplinary projects. Here, thirteen years after its completion, we assess the significance of a five-year (1999-2004) Swiss research project. The Fischnetz project aimed to identify the causes of fish catch decline and propose remedial measures. Engineers and scientists from different disciplines collaborated with practitioners and policy makers to approach this real-world problem and develop and implement policy interventions. Fischnetz proved to be an exemplarily successful case of how transgressive and socially robust research can be conducted and result in high-quality scientific outputs and policy impacts. As a result of Fischneta, The Swiss Federal Water Protection Act was fully revised, two by-laws were changed, and several parliamentary interventions were launched. Fischners produced 68 scientific ISI-papers with higher than average citations. In this report, the project setup and its overall outcomes were analysed via a Mode-2 knowledge production approach.

摘要： This article focuses on the relationship between forum selection clauses, choice of law clauses and data protection and privacy protection. In particular, it discusses the question whether and why jurisdiction and choice of law clauses used in the terms of social media providers should not be enforced against social media users located in a different jurisdiction. The article distinguishes between the contractual, private law analysis and the application of public policy as part of the private international law analysis. The contract law analysis is centred on doctrines such as unconscionability, which in turn examines issue such as fairness and overwhelming bargaining power of one party. By contrast, the public policy analysis in private international law focuses on fundamental rights, legality of contractual clauses according to the local law of the forum and the interests of justice. It is argued here that both aspects (contractual and public policy doctrines) are paramount for achieving not only justice between the parties of a dispute but also ensuring good administration of justice in the public interest.

摘要： This article presents the first study of children born in Chile to at least one migrant parent - the second-generation. Based on a mixed methods and child-centred approach, this article discusses institutional and experiential aspects of boundary and identity-making in Chile regarding race and nationality. We first review quantitative data from the state regarding the second-generation. Building on insights from comparative research on European states' second-generation integration policies, we suggest how gathering targeted Census data in Chile can inform the long-term evaluation of state policies and programs for socio-cultural inclusion in education and labour. We also present qualitative data from interviews with ten second-generation children between ages eight to thirteen, born to parents from Peru and Ecuador. We attend to how they negotiate being perceived as foreign and/or Chilean. Their position in-between the two categories is an important starting point for policies and discourse to expand notions of citizenship and belonging.

摘要： In Europe, informal caregiving is frequent and is expected to grow. Caregiving has an impact on caregivers' health, but its effect may vary according to the policies of support that are available to caregivers. The aim of this study was to assess the association between the policies of support to caregivers available in 12 European countries and the health of caregivers, considering separately the policies based on financial help and those based on training and other non-financial services. We used data from 13,507 caregivers from 12 European countries from the fifth wave of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) to build a path model. Poor health among caregivers was associated with living in a family-based care country (beta = 0.50;95% Cl = 0.42-0.59), and with an increased extent of caregiving (beta = 0.18;95% CI = 0.15-0.22). Non-financial support measures seem to have a larger protective impact (beta = -0.33;95% Cl = -0.38 --0.28) on the health of caregivers than do financial support measures (beta = 0.03;95% Cl = 0.01-0.04), regardless of the gender of the caregiver. According to our results, the currently available policies of support associated with better health among caregivers are those that: 1) provide them with some free time, 2) help them to deal emotionally with caregiving, and 3) give them skills to both improve the care situation and to deal with it better.
