The reason for that, however, is only secondary the locale.  Germany, like 
all EU countries, “most of other European countries, most of Asia and 
Oceania”, uses the ISO week numbering, while the U.S. locale uses another 
numbering that is also used in “Canada, […], China, Japan, Israel, South 
Africa, [and] most of Latin America.”

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Week#Week_numbering>

JSX:date.js provides jsx.date.isoWeekNumber(), 
Date.prototype.getISOWeekNumber(), and jsx.date.strftime() and 
Date.prototype.strftime() with the "%V" format string, and jsx.date.format() 
and Date.prototype.format() with the "ww" format string, respectively.
