(1) FQS
FQS continues to receive positive resonance from around the world
necessitating further support. The following colleagues have decided to
help us by joining our Editorial Board:
- Kenneth Gergen (Swarthmore College, USA)
- Mary Gergen (Penn State University, USA)
- Zdenek Konopásek (Charles University, Czech Republic)
- Andras Mate-Toth (University Szeged, Hungary)
The following colleagues joined the FQS Editorial Staff:
- Kip Jones (England), who together with Guenter Mey will be responsible
for FQS Reviews;
- Wolff-Michael Roth (Canada), who will assist Franz Breuer to develop
the rubric FQS Debates and to support the internationalization of FQS
Debates;
- Rolf Goetzke, who will serve us as our new technical administrator.
I am convinced that you are also looking forward to collaborating with
these new colleagues and their work on FQS as much as I am!
