Bürgerliche Wende? Von wegen! Die Stadt Zürich sagt heute Ja zur Entlastung des Mittelstands und Stärkung des öV und Ja zur neuen Parkkartenverordnung. Die Stadtbevölkerung stimmt ebenso Ja zu mehr Klimaschutz und Nein zu Steuererleichterungen für Immobilienbesitzer:innen.

Patterns of genetic admixture reveal similar rates of borrowing across diverse scenarios of language contact
Human population contact leads to consistently similar rates of linguistic borrowing, but effects vary across linguistic features.
Our paper is out! We linked genetic and linguistic data to study how contact changes language and found consistent patterns of borrowing across contact situations
