Access to sufficient quantities of safe drinking water is a human right. Moreover, access to clean water is of public health relevance, particularly in semi-arid and Sahelian cities due to the risks of water contamination and transmission of water-borne diseases. We conducted a study in Nouakchott, the capital of Mauritania, to deepen the understanding of diarrhoeal incidence in space and time. We used an integrated geographical approach, combining socio-environmental, microbiological and epidemiological data from various sources, including spatially explicit surveys, laboratory analysis of water samples and reported diarrhoeal episodes. A geospatial technique was applied to determine the environmental and microbiological risk factors that govern diarrhoeal transmission. Statistical and cartographic analyses revealed concentration of unimproved sources of drinking water in the most densely populated areas of the city, coupled with a daily water allocation below the recommended standard of 20 l per person. Bacteriological analysis indicated that 93% of the non-piped water sources supplied at water points were contaminated with 10-80 coliform bacteria per 100 ml. Diarrhoea was the second most important disease reported at health centres, accounting for 12.8% of health care service consultations on average. Diarrhoeal episodes were concentrated in municipalities with the largest number of contaminated water sources. Environmental factors (e.g. lack of improved water sources) and bacteriological aspects (e.g. water contamination with coliform bacteria) are the main drivers explaining the spatio-temporal distribution of diarrhoea. We conclude that integrating environmental, microbiological and epidemiological variables with statistical regression models facilitates risk profiling of diarrhoeal diseases. Modes of water supply and water contamination were the main drivers of diarrhoea in this semi-arid urban context of Nouakchott, and hence require a strategy to improve water quality at the various levels of the supply chain.

Mobile pastoralists provide major contributions to the gross domestic product in Chad, but little information is available regarding their demography. The Lake Chad area population is increasing, resulting in competition for scarce land and water resources. For the first time, the density of people and animals from mobile and sedentary populations was assessed using randomly defined sampling areas. Four sampling rounds were conducted over two years in the same areas to show population density dynamics. We identified 42 villages of sedentary communities in the sampling zones; 11 (in 2010) and 16 (in 2011) mobile pastoralist camps at the beginning of the dry season and 34 (in 2011) and 30 (in 2012) camps at the end of the dry season. A mean of 64.0 people per km2 (95% confidence interval, 20.3-107.8) were estimated to live in sedentary villages. In the mobile communities, we found 5.9 people per km2 at the beginning and 17.5 people per km2 at the end of the dry season. We recorded per km2 on average 21.0 cattle and 31.6 small ruminants in the sedentary villages and 66.1 cattle and 102.5 small ruminants in the mobile communities, which amounts to a mean of 86.6 tropical livestock units during the dry season. These numbers exceed, by up to five times, the published carrying capacities for similar Sahelian zones. Our results underline the need for a new institutional framework. Improved land use management must equally consider the needs of mobile communities and sedentary populations.

Boberach: Das Dreikönigsbündnis wird als Fortsetzung der mit dem Fürstenbund von 1785 und den Plänen von 1806 für ein norddeutsches Kaisertum von Preußen betriebenen Politik gedeutet. Die Fürsten sollen sich für die Einheit unter Preußen entscheiden. - Wentzke: Stellt die drei Vorstöße preußisch-deutscher Politik als Lehre für Gegenwart und Zukunft zusammen. Auch 1849 wurde die Idee der deutschen Einheit durch die preußische Kabinetspolitik [sic!] wieder auf einen weiten Umweg verwiesen. Hier bildet die Einheitsidee des engeren Bundesstaates und die dualistische Tendenz des Interim einen unauflöslichen Widerspruch. Das Bedürfnis der Sicherheit und Freiheit aber verlangt unbedingt die Einheit. Mahnt die deutschen Fürsten zur Entscheidung, die nur zugunsten der Einheit ausfallen kann

Boberach: Ein jüdischer Einwohner Frankfurts, dem nach einem Aufenthalt von 21 Jahren zunächst das Frankfurter Bürgerrecht in Aussicht gestellt worden war, beschwert sich darüber, daß er wegen seines Auftretens in Volksversammlungen verhaftet und ausgewiesen wurde und verlangt ein Gerichtsverfahren oder Genugtuung, nachdem er sich um Schutz durch seine württembergische Heimatbehörde bemüht hat
