A) 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!
