Mit Aussetzung der Wehrpflicht zum 1. Juli 2011 ist auch die Pflicht zur Ableistung eines Zivildienstes weggefallen. Um die Folgen des Wegfalls des Zivildienstes auf die soziale Infrastruktur zumindest abzumildern, hat der Gesetzgeber den Bundesfreiwilligendienst (BFD) beschlossen. Auch wenn sich die Einführung des BFD teilweise als schwierig erweist, werden hierdurch neue Chancen für die Zukunft eröffnet. Verantwortliche für Organisation und Umsetzung des BFD finden in diesem Band u.a. den Gesetzestext mit Begründung sowie die relevanten vertraglichen Grundlagen mit Erläuterungen. Zudem werden die Gemeinsamkeiten bzw. Unterschiede zwischen FSJ und BFD dargestellt.
Communicating Intimate Health presents an edited collection of original, empirical research, personal essays, autoethnography, critical reviews, and theoretical work showcasing advances in intimate health research from the field of communication studies. Intimate health includes sexual and reproductive health, sexual activity, sexuality, gender, and reproductive justice. The contributors vulnerably engage subjects including: parent-child, partner, patient-provider, and larger societal discourse and communication about sexuality education, HIV, family planning, purity pledges, (in)fertility, breastfeeding, and Black maternal health, sexting, boundary setting, consent, border justice, trauma, contraception, and menstruation, among others. Featuring both new research and vulnerable reflections on the research process, Communicating Intimate Health showcases the potential of communication scholarship to engage intimately with intimate topics.

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a pivotal role in regulating our emotions. The importance of ventromedial regions in emotion regulation, including the ventral sector of the medial PFC, the medial sector of the orbital cortex and subgenual cingulate cortex, have been recognized for a long time. However, it is increasingly apparent that lateral and dorsal regions of the PFC, as well as neighbouring dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, also play a role. Defining the underlying psychological mechanisms by which these functionally distinct regions modulate emotions and the nature and extent of their interactions is a critical step towards better stratification of the symptoms of mood and anxiety disorders. It is also important to extend our understanding of these prefrontal circuits in development. Specifically, it is important to determine whether they exhibit differential sensitivity to perturbations by known risk factors such as stress and inflammation at distinct developmental epochs. This Special Issue brings together the most recent research in humans and other animals that addresses these important issues, and in doing so, highlights the value of the translational approach.
This ambitious handbook takes advantage of recent advances in the study of the history of English to rethink the understanding of the field.
Cyberbullying is one of the darker and more troubling aspects to the growing accessibility of new media technologies. Children in developed countries engage with cyberspace at younger and younger ages, and the use of the internet as a means to bully and harass has been greeted with alarm by educationalists, parents, the media, and governments. This important new book is the result of a four-year international collaboration, funded by the EU, to better understand how we can cope and confront cyberbullying, and how new media technologies can be used to actually support the victims of such abuse. The articles initially define the historical and theoretical context to cyberbullying, before exami...
