“…Appropriate target values to these quality indicators have been assigned. The study method was based on a study evaluating the diabetes convention carried out by the Intermutualistic Agency [ 33 ] and on a study evaluating a diabetes care quality improvement programme for general practitioners that was carried out by the KU Leuven and the Universiteit Antwerpen [ 7 , 34 ].…”

BackgroundThe Belgian care trajectory (CT) for diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM), implemented in September 2009, aims at providing integrated, evidence-based, multidisciplinary patient- centred care, based on the chronic care model.The research project ACHIL (Ambulatory Care Health Information Laboratory) studied the adherence of CT patients, in the early phases of CT programme implementation, with CT obligations, their uptake of incentives for self-management, whether the CT programme was targeting the appropriate group of patients, how care processes for these patients evolved over time and whether CT start led to better quality in the processes and outcomes of care.MethodsThis observational study took place in the period 2006–2011 and covered T2DM patients who started a CT between 01/09/2009 and 31/12/2011.Four data sources were used: outcome data, from electronic patient records (EPRs) on all CT patients, provided by general practitioners (GPs); reimbursement process data on all CT patients and clinically comparable patients; and data from a sample of CT patients and clinically comparable patients from an EPR-based regional GP network and a paper-based national GP network, respectively.Through multilevel analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal data, the effect of CT inclusion on processes and outcome was estimated, controlling for potential confounders.ResultsBy the end of 2011, data on 18,250 CT patients had been collected. Approximately 50 % of these CT patients had received reimbursement for a glucometer and nearly 60 % had had at least one encounter with a diabetes educator. The CT programme recruited T2DM patients who had been difficult to control in the past. In the years prior to CT start, there had been a gradual improvement in the follow up of these patients. Moreover, compared to non-CT patients, the proportion of CT patients adhering to the recommended frequency for monitoring of parameters, such as HbA1c, increased significantly around CT start. Some data sources, albeit not all, suggested there had been an improvement in certain outcomes, such as HbA1c, after CT inclusion.ConclusionsAccording to this study, CT enrolment is associated with better quality of care processes compared to non-CT patients. This improvement was found in several of the data sources used in this study. However, results on outcome parameters remain inconclusive.

“…In 1950, about sixty per cent of Belgians were Flemings, 30 but Flemings were estimated to be about seventy per cent of all whites in the colonial capital Leopoldville and represented eighty to ninety per cent of all missionaries in the Catholic missions. 31 As a result, Flemings were extremely well represented in the colonial educational system. Moreover, similar to the Bretons in the French empire, 32 Flemings held low hierarchical positions in colonial administration and were employed far into the interior of the colony.…”

“…Indeed, Batavia's Dutch characters and colonial rule may have been interpreted as role models for Flemings, who were marginalized in Belgium: for them the Dutch imperial endeavour was an example to follow in order to become respectable Europeans, unambiguously 'white'. The century following the publication of Conscience's Batavia would see the development of a tradition of colonial literature in Flanders 35 that would consolidate 'the global color line' 36 and affirm the whiteness of Flemings, in spite of their inferior social status within the Belgian nation-state. This does not mean that Conscience was the founding father of Flemish colonial literature, but rather that his writing was part and parcel of a wider colonial context in which such a literary tradition could emerge.…”

How the Flemings Became White: Race, Language, and Colonialism in the Making of Flanders

When Belgium was founded in 1830 French was the de facto dominant and prestigious language while Dutch indexed inferiority. This article argues how the marginalization of Flemings, i.e. Belgian speakers of Dutch, can be understood as a form of racialization and how Flemish emancipation was also contingent on the Belgian colonial project and impacted perceived Flemish group interests as 'white'. As participation in the colonial project entailed the promise of upward social mobility, the marginalized Flemings were disproportionally involved in the colonial project. In that process Dutch did not achieve the same prestigious status as French, but reached a social position at least superior to racialized colonized subjects. This paper argues that the role of race and whiteness grounded in that colonial project is still apparent in contemporary Belgium, where political interests of Flemings are systematically framed in contradiction to the interest of racialized citizens.

“…De antislavernij-iconografie grossierde in de hoogdagen van Uncle Toms' Cabin in met de handen gevouwen slaven die naar hun witte eigenaars opkijken. 154 Abolitionisten wilden zo de vredelievendheid, goedheid en vroomheid van de zwarte medemens benadrukken om des te feller de onaanvaardbaarheid van slavernij aan te klagen. In de taal van toen: men wilde de slaafgemaakte voorstellen als "een voor zedelijkheid vatbaar wezen".…”

Het gaat niet zo goed met Hendrik Conscience . Het lichaam van de schrijver werd natuurlijk al lang geleden ter aarde besteld, maar intussen moeten ook zijn immense oeuvre en zijn ooit ontzagwekkende reputatie dood en begraven heten. Met uitzondering van een wetenschappelijke uitgave van De leeuw van Vlaenderen (1838), die men vergeefs in de boekhandel zal zoeken, is geen enkele van zijn meer dan tachtig boektitels nog leverbaar, tenzij tweedehands. Wel werd De leeuw van Vlaenderen in 2015 een plek toebedeeld in de Literaire Canon van de Koninklijke Academie voor Nederlandse Taal en Letteren (KANTL). Maar de publiciteit voor deze canon liet achter de gemaakte keuze frisse tegenzin vermoeden. Op de bijbehorende website werd geconstateerd dat het werk van Conscience "onleesbaar" was In 1966 bewerkte Hugo Claus voor de Koninklijke Nederlandse Schouwburg (KNS) de negentiende-eeuwse avonturenroman Het Goudland (1862) van Hendrik Conscience tot een musicalspektakel. Daarin werd Conscience zelf opgevoerd als een sleetse verteller die er behalve erg preutse ook nogal reactionaire en zelfs racistische opvattingen op nahield. Het toneelstuk ging op 23 december 1966 in Antwerpen in première in een regie van Walter Tillemans. De legendarische acteur Robert Marcel (1900Marcel ( -1987 vertolkte Conscience, wiens voorkomen gemodelleerd was naar het Antwerpse standbeeld van de schrijver. Met de toneeladaptatie van Het Goudland droeg Hugo Claus bij aan de reputatie van Hendrik Conscience als een onverbeterlijke racist.
