Mivel a mediáció, mint a viták megoldásának egyik alternatívája, a kanonizált jogrendszer részévé vált, felerősödött és sajátos fejlődési útját járja az 1950-es évektől napjainkig. Ebben a tanulmányban ennek folyamatát és lépcsőit vizsgálom meg kommunikációs szempontból, a részvételi kommunikáció elmélet (PCT) terminológiáján keresztül. Az egyes fejezetek a mediációs típusoknak is megfelelnek. A típusok közötti kapcsolatok és interakciók szintén e tanulmány tárgyát képezik, akárcsak egyes típusok mozgásterei. A részvételi kommunikáció elmélete (PCT) segítségével áttekinthetjük a mediáció fejlődését a 20. és a 21. században, a facilitatív mediációtól a transzformatív mediációig, egységes és átlátható kereteken belül.

Mediation does not only mean a specific procedure or protocol but the related attitude, mindset as well. This perspective gives opportunity to demonstrate the problem in a different way than previously. In the present study the participatory theory of communication (PTC) appears as a framework which makes the communication of participants of the mediation interpretable and transparent.

<p>Our team has compiled Seismotectonic hazard map of Hungary. One of the main contents of the map are Eurocode 8 categories whose production steps are described here in detail. In engineering, site response to earthquakes has been classified to national and international standards. Eurocode 8 standard is partly based on Vs<sub>30</sub> that is the time averaged shear-wave velocity in the uppermost 30 m sediment. We have compiled 67 Vs30 measurements and collected 103 Vs<sub>30</sub> values from PhD theses and industrial reports. The values could be divided to soil class A–D of Eurocode 8 which are defined by Vs<sub>30</sub> thresholds. The special soil class E (hard rock beneath 5–20 m thick loose sediment) needed a deeper investigation. The Vs trend was plotted and plots with obvious knickpoint has been analysed further. In case of one knickpoint in Vs trend two-layered model was used. We were defined the thickness and the theoretical Vs<sub>30</sub> of the upper and the lower strata. In case if the site fit to class E, original Eurocode 8 class have been overwritten. Other advantage of the extrapolation of Vs trend of the uppermost strata is to derive the theoretical Vs<sub>30</sub> of the given geomorphological feature if its sediment would fill up the whole 30 m.</p> <p>In Hungary only the youngest and lowest level of alluvial and lacustrine features fall into the most critical class D. Therefore that features have been mapped. In case of the youngest sediment’s thickness was not exceeded 20 m in each places, that site would classified as „shallow D” which is not a Eurocode 8 soil class. This process could be done using the borehole database of Geomega Ltd. Classification of soil class E have derived using the same method: thousands of borehole data have been checked to delineate the margin of the categories around the rock outcrops. For soil classes A–D topographical slope – Vs<sub>30</sub> relation has established. For Hungary, we recommend to use 0.3%, 3% and 11% as topographical slope barriers between soil classes D-C-B-A (in advance).</p> <p>Secondly, active faults were mapped using the methodology described by the European Facilities for Earthquake Hazard and Risk. Third, earthquake database was use to present area affected by frequent ground motions. We have divided the database to historical and to instrumental detections due to their differences in the accuracy and reliability of magnitude and epicentre location.</p> <p>Historically Komárom-Oroszlány-Balatonfő line was most affected by earthquakes. Our map revealed that in the Middle Hungarian Shear Zone consists of still active fault lines. Some spots are affected by densely located small earthquakes such as the neighbourhood of Zalaszengrót, Répcelak, Nagyigmánd, the DIósjenő fault, Heves, Csepel, Jászberény, Nagykanizsa, Nagyatád, Pincehely, Szabadszállás, Kecskemét, and Miskolc. In almost all cases the most critical soil class D can be found in the neighbourhood of mentioned sites, while class E appears only in some locations.</p> <p>The research project was supported by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office of Hungary (2018-1.2.1-NKP-2018-00007). Map can be downloaded among others and vector data can be requested at Geomega website (www.geomega.hu).</p>

The present study summarizes the results of the most recent geophysical research on the middle portion of the Kaposline (central Hungary). This work is dedicated to the memory of our unforgottable Colleague, Friend and Master, late Prof. Dr. Ferenc Horváth.As a first step a complex geophysical-geological database was formed integrating all available previous and newly measured 2D/3D reflection seismic, as well as borehole data, including also the results of new stratigraphic wells. A new, geologically and geometrically consistent 3D geological model of the study area was built by the interpretation of this integrated database. This 3D model consists of five geological horizons of basic importance within the study area (top pre-Cenozoic basement, top clastic/volcanic Lower Miocene, top marine Middle Miocene, top Endrőd and top Algyő Formations), as well as the interpreted faults. Considering the obtained new results, the previously published geologicalstructural models were critically re-evaluated and -if necessary -modified.One of the most important geological results of the research is the reambulation of the spatial extent, structural and facies relationships of the crystalline and Mesozoic basement rocks in the study area based on integrated evaluation of seismic and well data. Furthermore, the demonstration of the pronounced Early Miocene rifting event associated with the formations of several smaller basins with a depth up to 2 kilometers also represents a fundamental result. These basins were filled by a large amount of continental clastic sediments and coeval calc-alkaline volcanics. These findings underline the importance of the previously less known (and emphasized) role of the Early Miocene phase during the formation of the Pannonian basin.Based on the results of fault mapping the most important fault zones of the study area involve the ENE-WSW striking "Kapos line", furthermore the NE-SW striking Dunaszentgyörgy-Harta, and the Bonyhád fault zones, the latter mapped first during this research. All of these fault zones are characterized by steep dip (≥60-70°). The Bonyhád fault zone in the southwest joins to northern imbricate zone of the Mecsek Mts. The general fault pattern of the study area is characterised mostly by NE-SW striking faults being (sub)parallel to the mentioned major fault zones. Structurally less important, NW-SE striking faults occur mostly south of the "Kapos line".The results of detailed fault mapping clarified that a single, along strike structurally and geometrically uniform "Kapos line" does not exist in the study area. Instead, this fault zone can be divided into a western ("Kapos-W") and an eastern segment ("Kapos-E"), which differ both in dip direction and -in accordance with previous literature dataobserved neotectonic activity. The eastern "Kapos line", the Dunaszentgyörgy-Harta and the Bonyhád fault zones all show pronounced neotectonic activity. Moreover, they form the most important elements of a regional-scale, broad, neotectonic sinistral strike-slip shear zone consistin...

Mediation has various features as being a special communicational endeavour regarding to the agreement of two or more parties in a conflicted situation. Presenting these features allows to draw the conclusion that mediation is beyond simple conflict management, thus, it has independent institutional framing both theoretically and practically. This paper reflects on the Participation Theory of Communication (PTC) as a theoretical framing, although the practical implementation stands in its main focus. By presenting all application fields of mediation – family, workplace, communal (urban), peer (school), healthcare and intercultural (minority) mediation – based on the author's personal experience as practicing mediator, the specific features of the mediation process are demonstrated.
