Diverticulitis is a common disease in western countries and its incidence is increasing especially among young patients. Colonic diverticulosis, incidentally diagnosed by endoscopy or CT-scanning, has no immediate clinical consequences. Progression to diverticulitis develops in only 4 % of cases. In the last decades management of diverticular disease evolved and expectative treatment and less invasive techniques have gained importance. Elective resection has traditionally been advised after a second episode of diverticulitis or after a first episode if the patient was less than 50 years of age or complicated disease occurred. Recent changes in understanding the natural history of diverticular disease have substantially modified treatment paradigms. Elective resection in case of recurrent diverticular disease should be performed on a individual basis and in cases with complications like intestinal obstruction or fistulas. Primary anastomosis is an option even in emergency surgery due to colonic perforation, while diverting operations are indicated for selected patient groups with a high risk profile. Several prospective studies showed good results for laparoscopic drainage and lavage in the setting of perforated diverticulitis with generalized peritonitis, though this concept needs to be controlled with randomized clinical trials before application into the daily practice. This article should provide a short overview of trends in the surgical treatment of diverticulitis, help to understand the natural history of the disease and thereby explain the currently lower frequency of surgical interventions for diverticulitis.

Over sixty years ago, British high court judge Patrick Devlin and legal philosopher H.L.A. Hart fought out a famous debate over the legal enforcement of morality, which was generated by the question whether homosexuality should be legalized or not. Jurists agree that this debate was won by Hart, also evidenced in the fact that the state has since been retreating from its previous role of moral watchdog. I argue in this paper that the two most conflicted and essentially unresolved issues in the integration of Islam, the regulation of the female body and of free speech, have reopened this debate anew, pushing the liberal state toward the legal regulation of morality, thus potentially putting at risk its liberalness. I use the Hart-Devlin debate as a template for comparing and contrasting the Muslim quest for restricting free speech with the host-society quest for restricting the Islamic veil. Accordingly, there is a double threat to liberalism, which this paper brings into view in tandem, one originating from Islam and another from a hypertrophied defense of liberalism.

This article reviews the minefield of Muslim integration in Europe, paying special attention to the legal integration of Islam, which has not yet found the attention that it deserves. In a first step, the article contrasts ‘victimist’ and ‘alarmist’ views on contemporary Muslim integration, both of which are found misleading. Instead, as argued in the second part, significant progress has been made through the legal route. The conclusion provides a reflection on the role of Islam for Europe’s ‘liberal identity’ today.

In Europe and North America, migration and integration has become a busy subfield of political sociology. Of particular interest in this respect is the integration of Muslims and Islam, which has dominated the debate in Europe. Broadly conceived «political opportunity structures» have received much attention in this context. But the role of liberal law in the integration of Islam has been largely ignored, not by lawyers of course, but by political sociologists who have thus delivered far too negative and truncated pictures of Muslims and Islam in Europe. This is the deficit we sought to redress in Legal Integration of Islam; A Transatlantic Comparison (2013) (co-authored with John Torpey). Some of this study’s main ideas and findings are presented in the following.
