Children are born into a social context that is not of their choosing. From early childhood, this context is made up of diverse group experiences that play a crucial role in shaping a person's social life and desire to learn. This makes the group context an ideal setting for therapeutic and educational work, especially with children and adolescents. This volume offers numerous practical suggestions for using the group as a helpful and supportive medium, e.g., in parent-infant/toddler groups, parent/caregiver groups, groups with children or adolescents, and in preventive group work in schools. The contributions provide insights into the diversity and complexity of conceptual, group analytic work with children's, youth and parents' groups, and show how this work can be successful in outpatient settings, clinics, youth services, counseling centers, or schools. The combination of basic and applied knowledge makes this anthology an indispensable reference for any practitioner.With contributions by Andreas Opitz, Anke Mühle, Birgitt Ballhausen-Scharf, Dietrich Winzer, Hans Georg Lehle, Christoph Müller, Beate Schnabel, Anja Khalil, Carla Weber, Christoph Radaj, Dietlind, Köhncke, Franziska Schöpfer, Furi Kharbirpour, Gerhild Ohrnberger, Harald Weilnböck, Horst Wenzel, Kadir Kaynak, Matthias Wenck, Thomas Schneider, Tilman Sprondel, Ursula Pröbsting

Die Forschungen zur Diplomatie der Frühen Neuzeit haben in den letzten Jahren die strukturellen Unterschiede zur modernen Diplomatie herausgearbeitet. Simultane Loyalitätsbeziehungen zu verschiedenen Fürstenhäusern und Territorien charakterisierten die Stellung von Diplomaten aus dem hohen Adel. Regina Stuber zeigt anhand der Karriere des Pastorensohns Johann Christoph (von) Urbich, dass ein weit gespanntes Beziehungsgeflecht auch für bürgerliche Diplomaten die Grundlage für den Aufstieg in höhere Positionen bilden konnte. Transterritoriales Agieren kennzeichnete das Selbstverständnis der sich etablierenden Funktionselite, bedingte aber auch die Fragilität einer beruflichen Existenz, die auf multiplen Loyalitäten aufgebaut war

Is it possible to combine Christian and queer-affirming attitudes in a counseling context? This book provides concrete case studies to show that it is indeed possible and shows how this connection can be touching and liberating. Kerstin Söderblom explains the meaning of queer-affirming pastoral care, using narrative miniatures of counseling sessions. The basis for this is the evaluation of case studies from pastoral care and casual services. Moreover, it presents queer-friendly impulses for pastoral care sermons, queer "re-readings" of biblical texts, prayers and rituals. The book shares exciting and touching stories from a pastoral-theological world that is usually still completely ignored. It combines professional pastoral care work with the question of how it can be offered to queer people in an appropriate and respectful way.
