Das deutsche Parlamentsrecht unterscheidet sich von anderen Ländern durch eine ausschließliche Besonderheit: eine qualifizierte Minderheit hat das Recht, einen parlamentarischen Untersuchungsausschuss einzusetzen. Um einen Überblick über die Entwicklung der nationalen Besonderheiten zu gewinnen, wird zunächst die Entwicklungsgeschichte von parlamentarischen Untersuchungsausschüssen auf Bundes- und Landesebene aufgezeigt, bevor dann auf Niedersachsen eingegangen wird.

O artigo trata da trajetória do aprendizado e ensino do Direito Administrativo por parte do autor nos últimos 38 anos. Narra a experiência docente e discente, seus desafios e variações. Culmina na experiência relativa à aplicação não só das novas técnicas (estudo de casos e role-playing), mas especialmente nas altas expectativas geradas pelo compromisso do ensino do Direito em universidades públicas.

Originalmente concebido para ser omissivo, o Estado Administrativo cresceu e se multiplicou. O artigo examina a ideia original e os seus desdobramentos, dento da noção de que, hoje, existem muitos Estados dentro do mesmo Estado. Logo, é preciso que nos apercebamos disso e desenvolvamos metodologias distintas para cada espécie de Estado Administrativo.

Die substitutive private Krankenversicherung (PKV) zählt zu den institutionellen Besonderheiten des deutschen Gesundheitssystems. Galt sie lange Zeit als Garant einer medizinisch hochwertigen Versorgung, so steht sie heute mehr denn je unter gesundheitspolitischem Reformdruck. Zum einen wird der institutionelle Dualismus aus gesetzlicher und privater Krankenversicherung zunehmend in Frage gestellt, zum anderen bestehen auch innerhalb der PKV erhebliche Strukturdefizite. In diesem Buch wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie die Probleme der PKV vor dem Hintergrund bereits vollzogener Gesundheitsreformen gelöst werden könnten. Ziel dieses interdisziplinär angelegten Ansatzes ist es, die gegenwärtigen Probleme der PKV sachanalytisch zu erfassen, Bedingungen und Grenzen möglicher Veränderungen zu analysieren, Argumente und Lösungsansätze zu prüfen sowie praxistaugliche Vorschläge für eine konstruktive Weiterentwicklung der PKV zu unterbreiten.

Zahlreiche ehrenamtliche HelferInnen engagieren sich derzeit für die Integration von Flüchtlingen. In Anlehnung an Studien zu Sekundärer Traumatisierung (ST) bei TraumatherapeutInnen wurde an N = 231 ehrenamtlichen FlüchtlingshelferInnen die Prävalenz von ST und deren Zusammenhang mit emotionaler Empathie als Risikofaktor sowie verschiedenen Copingstrategien als Risiko- und Schutzfaktoren anhand einer Online-Befragung untersucht. Die Prävalenz von ST lag bei 10,5%. Insbesondere emotional empathische FlüchtlingshelferInnen zeigten höhere Werte in ST. Dysfunktionale Copingstrategien verstärkten diesen Zusammenhang. Es konnten keine schützenden Copingstrategien identifiziert werden, sodass es diesbezüglich weiterer Forschung bedarf.

The aim of this study was to quantify contributions of genetic and environmental factors to variation in timing of emergence of the primary teeth in a sample of monozygotic and dizygotic twins, using univariate model-fitting approaches. The sample comprised 94 pairs of monozygotic twins and 125 pairs of dizygous twins, all of European ancestry, aged from 2–6 years. Tooth emergence timing was based on parental report, with a subset of data validated by clinical assessment. Heritability estimates for tooth emergence timing were generally high, around 90%, however estimates for the lower right lateral incisor and the lower canines were around 50%. These findings confirm a strong genetic influence on observed variation in the timing of emergence of the human primary teeth.

While God looks directly into people's souls as inspector cordium, the relationship of observation between man and the devil appears as an immanent and indirect, lateral and potentially reciprocal one. The contributions in this volume describe how late medieval and early modern stories narratively modeled such constellations of attention, thereby negotiating mechanisms of social control together with forms of vigilant self-observation.

This volume is about an ongoing long-term research initiative led by researchers from the School of Dentistry at the University of Adelaide. The aim of this book is to provide an overview of the studies of the teeth and faces of Australian twins and their families that have extended over more than thirty years.

Chorion type may significantly influence the prenatal environment of twins. This study explored the associations between chorion type and gestational age, birth weight, birth length, and the timing of emergence of the first primary tooth in two populations of twins, Australian and Dutch. Additionally, we investigated the relationship between chorion type and birth weight discordance (BWD) in order to determine whether a significant relationship existed between discordance in birth weight and discordance in the timing of emergence of the first primary tooth. The two study samples consisted of 409 Australian twin pairs and 301 Dutch twin pairs, all of European ancestry. Data were collected through a combination of questionnaires and recording charts administered to the parents and through linkage with biological databases. In the Australian sample, monozygotic monochorionic (MZMC) twins experienced the shortest mean gestation time (35 weeks), the lowest mean birth length (46 cm) and the lowest mean birth weight (2.3 kg) compared with other twin groups. For the same variables in the Dutch sample, these trends with MZMC twinning were not observed. Chorion type did not significantly affect the mean timing of emergence of the first primary tooth in either sample. Monochorionicity was found to be significantly associated with BWD in both samples, but there was a significant association between BWD in MZMC twin pairs and timing of emergence of the first primary tooth only in the Australian sample. Results from this study support previous findings that the timing of emergence of the first primary tooth is influenced strongly by genetic factors and is well protected from environmental disturbances.
