After the unconditional surrender of the Third Reich in May 1945, Germany no longer existed as a sovereign, independent nation. It was occupied by the four Allied powers: France, Great Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union. When it came to the postwar European recovery, the biggest obstacle was that the economy in Germany, the dominant continental economic power before the Second World War, was at an almost complete standstill. This not only had severe consequences for Germany itself, but also had strong economic repercussions for surrounding countries, especially the Netherlands. As Germany had been the former’s most important trading partner since the middle of the nineteenth century, it was clear that the Netherlands would be unable to recover economically without a healthy Germany. However, Allied policy, especially that of the British and the Americans, made this impossible for years. This article therefore focuses on the early postwar Dutch-German trade relations and the consequences of Allied policy. While much has been written about the occupation of Germany, far less attention has been paid to the results of this policy on neighbouring countries. Moreover, the main claim of this article is that it was not Marshall Aid which was responsible for the quick and remarkable Dutch economic growth as of 1949, but the opening of the German market for Dutch exports that same year. https://doi.org/10.1515/jbwg-2018-0009 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martijn-lak-71793013/

In order to optimize collaboration between Speech and Language Therapists (SLTs) and parents of children with Developmental Language Disorders (DLD), our aim was to study what is needed for SLTs to transition from the parent-as-therapist aide model to the FCC model and optimal collaborate with parents. Chapter 2 discusses the significance of demystifying collaborative working by making explicit how collaboration works. Chapter 3 examines SLTs’ perspectives on engaging parents in parent-child interaction therapy, utilizing a secondary analysis of interview data. Chapter 4 presents a systematic review of specific strategies that therapists can employ to enhance their collaboration with parents of children with developmental disabilities. Chapter 5 explores the needs of parents in their collaborative interactions with SLTs during therapy for their children with DLD, based on semi-structured interviews. Chapter 6 reports the findings from a behavioral analysis of how SLTs currently engage with parents of children with DLD, using data from focus groups. Chapter 7 offers a general discussion on the findings of this thesis, synthesizing insights from previous chapters to propose recommendations for practice and future research.

Het betrekken van het gezin en ouders in de logopedische behandeling wordt steeds belangrijker gevonden. Een vorm van betrokkenheid is het gezamenlijk opstellen van doelen voor de logopedische behandeling. Dit gaat niet altijd vanzelf; een logopedist kan sturend zijn en/of een ouder afwachtend omdat niet duidelijk is welke rol/inbreng wordt verwacht. Keuzetools, zoals de tool ENGAGE, hebben als doel de logopedist en ouders van kinderen met TOS te ondersteunen in het gezamenlijk opstellen van doelen. In evaluatiegesprekken met logopedisten die ENGAGE hebben gebruikt werd een positief effect op de samenwerking met ouders genoemd. In deze studie is via interviews met logopedisten nagegaan wat de verandering in de samenwerking inhield, en hoe en wanneer deze verandering plaatsvond. Uit de analyse van de interviews komen verschillende contextfactoren, mechanismen en uitkomsten naar voren die door logopedisten gelinkt worden aan ouderbetrokkenheid. Er lijken drie effecten te zijn die bijdragen aan de ervaren positieve samenwerking: 1) een open en luisterende houding van de logopedist en hierdoor een grotere inbreng van ouders in het gesprek, 2) meer uitwisseling en kennis en hierdoor meer wederzijds begrip tussen logopedist en ouders en passende en relevante doelstellingen en 3) het proces van gezamenlijk opstellen van doelen en hierdoor meer ervaren ouderbetrokkenheid.
