The role of secondary school teachers in shaping a political culture of ethnicity and ethnic favouritism: the case of Kenya KU Leuven
Since Kenya’s independence in 1963, ethnicity has been an important factor in Kenyan politics and everyday life.

The results show that adolescents initially draw three subtypes of ...

"The Judeans" for οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι? Contested Ethnicity in the Fourth Gospel KU Leuven
Despite its apparent geographical restriction, the translation “the Judeans” for the Johannine expression οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι has gained many supporters in the past decade. This trend may have been influenced by the view of Steve Mason (2007) that the translation “the Judeans” is not limited to a geographical meaning but is inclusive of religious and political connotations as well. Subsequently, he posits that the term οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι should be translated ...
