The social support an individual receives influences his or her state of physical and mental health. Intimate relationships (family and friends) are the greatest source of social support and, among them, the partner plays a critical role in providing aid. The economic crisis we are experiencing since 2008 has shown the relevance of personal networks to provide help and is testing the extent of solidarity among families and friends. In Southern countries families are playing an important role to assist their less fortunate members. This paper focuses on people in couples and analyzes whether there are international differences in the role of the partner and the parents as providers of support. The analysis applies Esping-Andersen's classification of welfare regimes to study to whom one turns when one needs domestic, economic, or emotional help. The database used is the module on social support, "Social Relations and Support Systems (Social Network II)" of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), performed in 2001. Specifically, we have chosen national samples (of individuals over 18 years of age) of people with a stable partner (married or living together), from Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, East and West Germany, Great Britain, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, and the United States. We confirm that people in liberal and social democratic countries turn more to elective relationships such as partner and friends, while people in conservative and Mediterranean countries seek support in parents. ; Universidad de Málaga.

Due to the development of the information society, countries face the task of effectively regulating the relevant social relations. The mechanisms of such regulation should correspond to the specifics of such relations. Digitization is one of the modern methods of legal regulation, which is the use of information technology at the state level. The existing scientific achievements on digitalization processes need constant improvement, which corresponds to the specifics of this field. The object of research is digitalization in law in the light of international experience. The article aims to study and analyze digitalization in law in the international legal aspect. The following methods were used during the study: systemic, systemic-functional, comparative, sociological, analysis, synthesis, analogy, observation, classification, and statistical analysis. The article analyzes the phenomenon of digitalization, identifies the main approaches to understanding it. On the example of international experience (such countries as France, Germany, Italy, Georgia, Greece, and Great Britain), the mechanisms of using digitalization in public administration are determined, the legal regulation of informatization is analyzed. Also, based on the study and analysis of doctrinal teachings of international information experience, it is proposed to improve the domestic legal mechanism to ensure the effective functioning of public relations.

Leidenschaften, Emotionen und Irrationalität prägen bis heute den Blick auf den Spanischen Bürgerkrieg und die Internationalen Brigaden. Dazu zählt sowohl das Bild der Internationalen Brigaden als "antifaschistische Helden", wie auch die Auffassung, dass es sich bei ihnen um "moskauhörige Söldner" gehandelt habe. Ziel des Buches ist, einen entscheidenden Beitrag zur Versachlichung und Entmythologisierung dieses kontrovers diskutieren Themas zu leisten. Dabei stehen die Mechanismen der Herausbildung dieser Truppe aus zusammen gewürfelten Freiwilligen, ihre internen Auseinandersetzungen sowie die vielfältigen Beziehungen zu ihrer Umgebung im Mittelpunkt. Zum anderen stellt die Untersuchung die Lebenswirklichkeit der einfachen Soldaten und die Handlungsmöglichkeit der Führung dar; so kommt das Buch einer inneren Wirklichkeit der internationalen Brigaden auf die Spur, die bislang unbeachtet blieb. Die Studie versteht sich darüber hinaus als Baustein für die Erforschung der Geschichte der kommunistischen Arbeiterbewegung. Ansprüche und Wirklichkeit der kommunistischen Ideologie und ihrer historischen Handlungsträger werden innerhalb der Internationalen Brigaden dechiffriert und analysiert. Konkreter als bisher und ohne Vorbehalte fragt Angela Berg nach den Zielen deutscher kommunistischer Entscheidungsträger in Spanien, wie sie diese zu realisieren versuchten und auf welche Grenze sie dabei stießen
