Analysis of location factors important for development Spa tourism in Srebrenica
Authors: Nezirović Senada
Published: April 2024

In this paper, location factors important for the development of Spa tourism in Srebrenica was analyzed. Crni Guber Spa is located at 596 meters above sea level and is the highest spa and climatic place in northeastern Bosnia. Until the beginning of the war in 1992 in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the backbone of the economic development of the municipality of Srebrenica was the development of spa tourism. Spa Crni Guber in Srebrenica was a well-known health resort for anemic diseases. The accommodation capacities of this Spa complex were damaged by the war, so this health resort is currently in stagnation. We single out the time after 1995 as a special period, because there are no conditions for tourist movements towards the Crni Guber Spa in Srebrenica. Conducted research indicates that for the launch of the Crni Guber Spa and the adequate use of medicinal waters for medical purposes, it is necessary to resolve property and legal issues related to accommodation facilities and medical equipment of this Spa as well as the issue of concessions regarding the exploitation of medicinal water. Analyzing the importance of location factors and other factors important for the development of Spa tourism, in addition to local development policy in the municipality of Srebrenica, author believes that hydrographic and climatic resources, accommodation capacities and the touristic market are of special importance. The analysis of the spatial distribution of medicinal waters presents their economic value and proposes guidelines for further use and protection of these resources. For this type of tourist activity in Srebrenica, the tourist policy of local and state authorities is of great importance, as well as the connection between tourist organizations in order to attract visitors for treatment, recreation and rest. This paper presents a contribution to theoretical and practical research for the development of Spa tourism in the municipality of Srebrenica.

Pojav mestnega toplotnega otoka (MTO) je posledica antropogenega spreminjanja prostora ter lokalnih podnebnih razmer. Večina študij o MTO obravnava velika metropolitanska območja. Podatki kažejo da je jakost pojava MTO lahko velika tudi v malih urbanih sistemih. V študiji smo se osredotočili na jakost pojava MTO v luči povprečnih, maksimalnih in minimalnih dnevnih temperatur zraka v različnih vremenskih tipih po sezonah v mestu Ljutomer. Ob anticiklonalni ali advektivni zračni cirkulaciji, predvsem v poletnih mesecih, je jakost MTO v Ljutomeru primerljiva srednjim in velikim urbanim sistemom (tudi do 8°C). Rezultati študije so še posebej zaskrbljujoči z vidika vse pogostejših vročinskih valov kot posledice podnebnih sprememb, ki še dodatno povečujejo, že tako prisotni, toplotni stres v mestih.

Dandanes več kot polovica ljudi živi v ubranih sistemih. Posledično se širijo pozidane površine, ki s svojimi lastnostmi ustvarjajo učinek mestnega toplotnega otoka, ki velja za enega izmed najbolj značilnih pojavov urbane gradnje in antropogenih aktivnosti. Pojav se zaradi globalnih podnebnih sprememb značilno krepi, kar dodatno vpliva na psihološko in fiziološko stanje ranljivih skupin ljudi. Njegovi vplivi segajo tudi na področje gospodarstva, še zlasti na porabo energije v mestih. Za uspešno načrtovanje omilitvenih in prilagoditvenih ukrepov, planiranje urbane zasnove ter trajnostni razvoj mest, so ključnega pomena analitične študije pojava mestnega toplotnega otoka, pri katerih se uporablja kombinacija podatkov in-situ meritev in podob daljinskega zaznavanja. Pri uporabi slednjih smo pogosto omejeni s prostorsko ločljivostjo termičnih kanalov.
Spreminjanje rabe tal v zahodnih Ljutomersko-Ormoških goricah v obdobju 2000–2018 v povezavi z izbranimi fizično geografskimi značilnostmi
Authors: Slavič Jakob
Published: April 2024

Ljutomersko-Ormoške gorice delimo na Zahodne in Vzhodne. Zadnje so poznane po turizmu,Jeruzalemu, po pridelavi najkvalitetnejšega vina, medtem ko se Zahodne Ljutomerske–Ormoške gorice skrivajo v njihovi »senci«. Proces deagrarizacije, beg z dežele in večanje pomena mestnih središč so močno preoblikovali to območje.Z zgoraj omenjenimi procesi je na območju prišlo do številnih sprememb rabe tal, predvsem v smislu zaraščanja, opuščanja obdelovalnih površin, ogozdovanja in ozelenjevanja. Takšne spremembe rabe tal lahko privedejo do spremembe fizično geografskega izgleda pokrajine, kakor tudi izgubo kulturnogeografskega pomena območja. Največja problematika spreminjanja rabe tal se kaže v nesmotrni rabi tal, predvsem sovpadanja neobdelovalnih površin na kmetijsko ugodnih površinah.

Analizirane so tudi smeri spremembe rabe tal v obravnavanem obdobju in koeficient ekstenzifikacije. Vinogradništvo je bilo v preteklosti ena od kmetijskih dejavnosti, ki je dajala identiteto tej pokrajini, zato smo za sondno območje »Škalce-Bezina-Tepanje« analizirali spremembe vinogradniških površin glede na relativne višine, globalno obsevanje in vinogradniške bonitete v časovnih profilih 1824–2000–2022.
Remote sensing data and their use in topoclimate study
Authors: Vysoudil Miroslav
Published: April 2024

This work demonstrates the potential of using current digital satellite raster data to study a topoclimate. Also presented are digital vector data. All data have been provided by the Canadian Center for Remote Sensing in Ottawa within the scope of the solution for the project titled “Environmental Consequences of Local Climatic Effects” (A Case Study: British Columbia). The model region represents the southwest part of British Columbia located between Vancouver and the Okanagan basin. The most valuable components of a topoclimatic research are altimetric data assisting in the calculation of a DEM, multi-spectral images assigned to appropriate land cover categories, and thermal images. Subsequent integration of the DPZ and vector data provides a powerful tool for solving tasks leading to a topoclimate description, potential climatic effects and in wider implications even for studies of their impacts on the living environment.
Slovenian economy on the way from independence to catching up average economic development of EU - 27
Authors: Lorber Lučka
Published: April 2024

During the EU accession process, an intensive process of economic restructuring was taking place in Slovenia that was intended to secure Slovenia’s incorporation into the common European market. At the time of adapting the legal and economic order to European standards, everyone was aware of the fact that successful EU spatial integration depends on the achieved economic power that is comparable to the average EU-27 economic growth. Slovenia’s economic structure, determined by the GDP structure, is slowly approaching the structure of developed economies with the importance of agriculture and manufacture decreasing, and the importance of services increasing. However, financial and business services, and technologically demanding sectors are growing too slowly. Structural changes of the Slovene economy have an affect on transformation of geographical space and create a new social-economic gravitational region.Functional and structural economic changes that resulted from social and political changes following Slovenia’s newly-gained independence and its transition to market economy have changed the role of Slovenia in the common European economic market. Slovenia is to be found on a key development crossing, moving from an industrial to post industrial society. Slovenia’s basic development goal is to exceed the average economic development of the enlarged EU by 2015 to be able to secure and improve social security, faster development in all its regions, and improve the environment. In other words strive for a better quality of life and overall human development.
Sustainable Rural Development as an Educational Starting Point in General Grammar Schools in Slovenia
Authors: Konečnik Kotnik Eva
Published: April 2024

Education is a very important basis of sustainable development. That is why the selected learning objectives in the syllabus for geography in general grammar schools in Slovenia will be analysed within this contribution (general grammar school in Slovenia is a secondary school with a general-educational emphasis that does not provide vocational education, but prepares students aged 15 to 19 for further education at universities). We have selected learning objectives that relate to economic geography as a general geography topic, with special emphasis on learning objectives that refer to agriculture, rural areas and sustainable development. This contribution will present the results of generic comparative analysis of selected learning objectives in syllabi that were issued during the period since the emergence of Slovenia as an independent state (1992, 1998 and 2008). The results of the evaluation of quoted learning objectives from the viewpoint of social needs, educational guidelines and geographical science, as well as the results of the evaluation from the viewpoint of geography teachers in general grammar schools will also be examined. Educational problems associated with economic geography, sustainable development and rural areas will be highlighted accordingly.
The Slovene Countryside in Transition from Traditional to Market-Oriented Agriculture
Authors: Klemenčič Vladimir , Klemenčič Matjaž
Published: April 2024

In the following paper the contemporary problems of the Slovene countryside will be discussed with special emphasis on the problems of image of the cultural landscape, which developed as a consequence of the rapid economic development of Slovenia. The relationship among different individual land categories is changing fast and the remnants of the economic structure of classic agrarian and modern industrial society are intertwined in contemporary Slovenia. We will deal especially with the consequences of European market-oriented agrarian policy, which is applied towards large differences between individual regions of Slovenia.
New Challenges for Sustainable Rural Development in the 21st Century (part 3)
Authors: Lorber Lučka
Published: April 2024

The concept of rural development has undergone an important transformation process during the last decades, which has gone hand-in-hand with changes in the countryside and new demands from society. Rapid changes in the international economy-globalisation, improved communications and reduced transportation costs, changing trade patterns for commodities, as well as emergence of important non-farm activities in rural regions – confront rural regions with some obvious threats, but also with significant opportunities. Against this background, policy makers increasingly recognise that traditional sectoral policies need to be upgraded and, in some cases, phased out and substituted with more appropriate instruments. Particular concerns are raised by the modest positive impact that agricultural subsidies have on general economic performance even in the most farming dependent communities. Indeed, with farm families relying increasingly on off-farm employment, the economic success of rural communities will depend on the development of new economic engines.
Neoendogenous In- and Output of Selected Rural Areas: the Case of Economic Cycles in Slovenia
Authors: Potočnik Slavič Irma
Published: April 2024

The article focuses on neoendogenous rural development that enables development of endogenous potentials of rural areas (human, social, economic, environmental etc. as development resources of the local territorial level) and external resources (i.e. RD programmes on national and EU level). Four Slovenian case study areas were chosen to test the existence, functioning and outcomes of economic cycles. The survey was undertaken on the smallest spatial-social unit (household), additionally existing voluntary local network (associations) and locally and widely connected economic structures (entrepreneurship) were observed. The research partly confirmed that the activation of endogenous potentials of rural areas is evident through the empowerment of (regional) economic cycles.
Organic Farming: A Solution to Agriculture Crisis or a “New” Trend to Healthy Eating? An Overview of French and British Farmers
Authors: Boulay Annabelle
Published: April 2024

In recent years, the market for organic farming has significantly increased in response to concerns over food quality and environmental matters. Organic food is quite attractive for consumers and is often associated to quality, healthy and natural products in opposition to the more processed and artificial conventional food. Yet, farmers are less enthusiastic about this concept. This paper, issued from a survey with dairy farmers in two dairy areas in France (January 2000) and the UK (July 2002), review farmers attitude towards organic farming. Only a minority of farmers were in favour of organic farming while the others had concerns about organic farming as its concept goes against their belief: a farmer must produce food for the nation
Livestock Revolution and Its Impacts on the Sustainability of Marginal and Small Farmers in India: A Case Study
Authors: Khan Nizamuddin , Iqubal Asif
Published: April 2024

Livestock husbandry is an important segment of Indian agriculture. Its share of contribution to agricultural gross products has increased since the implementation of the globalization of agricultural trade. Livestock revolution has occurred not only in India, but in all tropical deve-loping countries, owing to recently increasing demand for animal-derived products in national and international markets. We selected Aligarh, a micro geographical unit from the Upper Ganga plain of Uttar Pradesh for this study. 600 households from 12 villages in the area were surveyed for collection of data. The study revealed that the region witnessed growth in livestock husbandry with selected species during 1993-1994 to 2003-2004. Buffalo and goats showed a positive change due to enhancement in the demand of milk and meat on account of increasing urban consumers, liberalization of agri-business and the changing of food habits over the decades. Cattle numbers have contracted owing to the mechanization of agriculture and the prohibition of cow slaughter in the country. Two thirds of livestock keepers, workers and beneficiaries are poor farmers with less than 3 hectares of land holding. The majority of them follow the livestock-cropping integrated farming system, which is highly beneficial rather than rearing livestock exclusively. Livestock husbandry is an economically viable, socially acceptable and environmentally sustainable farming system in the study area of the Aligarh district.
Ecological efficiency of production and the ecological footprint of organic agriculture
Authors: Turinek Matjaž , Turinek Maja , Grobelnik Mlakar Silva , Bavec Franc , Bavec Martina
Published: April 2024

The rising energy prices and climatic changes have intensified the search for alternative farming systems where energy consumption per unit would be lowered. A long-term field trial, started in 2007 at the University of Maribor, focuses on food quality and the ecological footprint of conventional (CON), integrated (INT), organic (ORG) and biodynamic (BD) farming systems. The gained data has been evaluated and interpreted using the SPIonExcel tool. Results from the first year show better environmental performance of both, ORG and BD systems in production of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and spelt (Triticum spelta L.), mainly due to the non-use of external synthetic production factors. When yields are added to the equation, the ORG and BD systems emerge also as more efficient per unit of land area. Thus, the ORG and BD farming systems present viable alternatives for reducing the impact of agriculture on climate change, while ensuring a more sustainable food security.

Dimenzije trajnosti
Authors: Vovk Korže Ana
Published: April 2024

Trajnostni razvoj je definiran kot  pristop s prednostno nalogo povezovanja okoljske, ekonomske in socialne politike in z ukrepi za nadzor porabe naravnih virov, preusmeritev sedanje politike subvencioniranja kmetijstva, prometa, energetike v bolj dolgoročno smer, spremembo davčne politike v smer obdavčenja porabe naravnih virov in postavitev visokih tehnoloških standardov. Ker je na svetu vse več velikih problemov in ti ogrožajo preživetje na Zemlji, je potrebno znova opredeliti trajnostni razvoj. Ta ima namreč več dimenzij in le te izhajajo ene iz druge (in se ne stikajo): ekosistemska dimenzija (ta dimenzija je skladna z ekosistemskim pristopom in jo lahko umestimo kot najbolj pomembno dimenzijo trajnosti); dimenzija celovitosti (neuspeh trajnostnega razvoja je t.i. razkosanje razvoja na gospodarski, socialni, ekološki, človekov in lokalni  razvoj ter podpiranje vsakega delnega razvoja posebej); dimenzija blaginje (gospodarska rast, usmerjana v proizvodnjo materialnih dobrin ne bi smela tako usodno vplivati na procese v družbi in naravi kot (doslej) in dimenzija samooskrbnosti z vključevanjem javnosti (aktiviranje razpoložljivih potencialov, njihova povezava in motivacija ljudi ter urejenost zakonodaje).
Usmerjanje bodočih učiteljev geografije v aktivno izobraževanje za trajnostni razvoj
Authors: Kolnik Karmen
Published: April 2024

Pri pripravi lokalnih, regionalnih in državnih razvojnih planov ter različnih programov posega v prostor se zelo pogosto izkaže, da je kultura vključevanja javnosti (t.i. participativna kultura) v Sloveniji šibka in pogosto tudi že v naprej odklonilna. Manjka tako zavesti o pomenu vključevanja javnosti kot odgovorni vlogi slehernega posameznika za kvaliteten in trajnostno usmerjen razvoj. V prispevku se sprašujemo, kakšna je vloga geografske vzgoje in izobraževanja na tem področju ter predstavljamo primer pedagoškega eksperimentalnega dela, katerega namen je bil usposabljati bodoče učitelje geografije za aktivno participatorno izobraževanje. Na izbranem vzorcu študentov univerzitetnega dvopredmetnega pedagoškega študija Geografija in…, smo preverjali nekatere vidike t.i. modela realističnega izobraževanja učiteljev. Analiza opravljenega seminarskega dela študentov,  bodočih učiteljev geografije je pokazala, da le-ti v pretežni meri razmišljajo o okoljskih (zlasti ekoloških), manj o ekonomskih, še manj pa o socialnih vidikih trajnostnega razvoja. Med vzroke za tako stanje sami navajajo svoje dosedanje izobraževanje, zlasti vse oblike neposrednega izkustvenega učenja.
Merjenje razpršenosti poselitve
Authors: Borko Sebastijan , Drozg Vladimir
Published: April 2024

Spreminjanje poselitvenega vzorca običajno prikazujemo s kvalitativnimi oznakami, kar je pogosto premalo natančno. V prispevku je podana metoda prikaza razpršenosti poselitvenega vzorca z numeričnimi kazalci. Povzeta je po švicarski študiji in temelji na geometriji prostora oziroma na ponderiranih razdaljah med pozidanimi območji. Metoda omogoča vpogled v regionalno in časovno spreminjanje poselitvenega vzorca. Najpomembnejše spoznanje uporabljenega prikaza je, da se je razpršenost poselitvenega vzroca v obravnavanih naseljih med leti 1860 do 2010 močno povečala.
Hoja: mobilnost, ki zagotavlja trajnostnost
Authors: Jezeršek Darka
Published: April 2024

Prispevek obravnava najstarejšo in najenostavnejšo obliko prostorske mobilnosti, hojo. Vsako potovanje se začne in konča s hojo. V preteklosti je hoja predstavljala glavni način prometa, nato je z razmahom motorizacije njen pomen začel slabeti. Danes predstavlja način transporta, ki z ničelno emisijo in kot najmanjši porabnik prostora uspešno zagotovlja trajnostno mobilnost, hkrati pa kot oblika telesne aktivnosti pozitivno vpliva na ljudi. V prvem delu prispevka so podana teoretična izhodišča o pomenu hoje skozi zgodovino, mobilnosti in konceptu trajnosti. Analizirani so evropski ukrepi in iniciative za zagotavljanje večje mobilnosti pešcev. Sledi pregled študij, ki temeljijo na konceptu trajnostnega razvoja ter se osredotočajo na povezavo med urbano obliko in hojo. Koncept trajnosti je namreč pripeljal do vprašanja kako povečati kakovost mestnega okolja z zmanjšanjem odvisnosti od avtomobilov in vpeljevanjem nemotoriziranih oblik mobilnosti. Zadnji del prispevka je namenjen primerom dobrih praks urejanja mobilnosti pešcev v evropskih mestih.
Population aging and changes in the age structure of Slovakia
Authors: Bucher Slavomír
Published: April 2024

The age group structure of the population in the districts of Slovakia was highlighted by means of an analysis of the three big age groups: 0 – 19 years, 20 – 64 years and 65 years and older. The paper reports on the development of the characteristics of the burden carried by the productive population in consequence of the demographic ageing of population in the conditions of the Slovakian regions. The main task of the paper was the identification the tendencies in age structure of Slovak population. Statistical methods and mathematics proceeding are used to compare different parameters age structure (e. g. index of ageing, youth dependency ratio etc.). That can be the ageing process as well as the forming of the population age structure considered as a demographical phenomenon with a fairly high degree of complexity. The results of the study will enhance the knowledge about demographic characteristics of Slovakia and therefore might be useful for further research in the field.

Mnenja učiteljev mentorjev študentom geografije na pedagoški praksi, ki so sodelovali v krajši pilotski kvalitativni raziskavi, so pokazala kako le-ti ocenjujejo svojo trenutno  usposobljenosti za poučevanje geografije s pomočjo interaktivne table in kakšne so njihove dosedanje izkušnje. Zbrana mnenja kažejo, da so v raziskavo vključeni učitelji mentorji, glede na pet stopenjsko lestvico strategij procesa učenja z uporabo i table po Hooper in Riebrju (1995), pretežno v začetni fazi seznanitve in delno v fazi uporabe. Samo posamezniki  dosegajo stopnjo integracije, ko interaktivno tablo uporabljajo vsakodnevno in je to postal njihov način poučevanja. Nihče od sodelujočih pa ni izrazil menja, da lahko na podlagi znanja in osebnih izkušenj že razvija nove strategije poučevanja (5 faza) ter se tako prilagaja raznolikim individualnim potrebam učencev.

Hungarian challenges of housing block regeneration: a case study of Uránváros, city of Pécs
Authors: Trócsányi András , Orbán Kristóf
Published: April 2024

As post-socialist suburbanisation is about to decline, and the buildings of cities start to age rapidly, more and more attention is focused on city rehabilitation in East-Central Europe as well, which will probably be continued in the near future by the rehabilitation of early housing estates. Through an example, the current study shows the challenges such an action faces. Based on the comparison of demands with scenarios that were drawn up from data bases originating from a diverse methodology, it appears that the most reasonable idea would be to generally apply the basic principles of diversification and selecto-concentration, but the uniqueness of individual housing blocks requires that planning is done on an individual basis.

This contribution discusses forms of spatial differentiation of the town, occurring while human needs are being fulfilled (social connections, supply, culture, education and recreation). Social and spatial differentiation is most noticeable in the area of social connections, clothing stores and culture. The most important social characteristics, responsible for spatial differentiation are age and material situation. Also, the size of the town proved to be crucial for social and spatial differentiation.
Spremembe v pristopih k razvoju podeželja - nova razvojna paradigma
Authors: Lorber Lučka
Published: April 2024

Namen članka je predstaviti vplive nove paradigme na razvoj podeželja. Za razumevanje novih pristopov in analizo učinkov je potrebno s kritično primerjavo stare paradigme obrazložiti in utemeljiti prednosti nove razvojne paradigme. Številni, predvsem tuji avtorji, ki se tako teoretično kot praktično ukvarjajo z razvojem kmetijstva in podeželja, ugotavljajo, da je uspeh nove paradigme razvoja podeželja v neposredni odvisnosti od politične volje tako na multiinstitucionalni ravni kot v pripravljenosti sprejetja nove usmeritve. Globalno se je uveljavil holistični pristop od spodaj navzgor. V ospredju ni več kmetijstvo kot gospodarski sektor. Spremembe v paradigmi razvoja podeželja so se začele dogajati v drugi polovici prejšnjega stoletja kot posledica učinkov deindustrilizacije in s širitvijo Evropske unije na mediteranske dežele. Z Agendo 2000, Leader programi so bili postavljeni temelji nove razvojne paradigme podeželja, ki je leta 2006 postala globalna z objavo nove razvojne paradigme podeželja OECD. Prav tako nas je zanimalo, kako se je slovenska politika odzvala na sprejete spremembe in kje so vzroki za počasno implementacijo novih pristopov razvoja kmetijstva in podeželja v Sloveniji.
Tipi novodobne enostanovanjske hiše
Authors: Drozg Vladimir
Published: April 2024

V prispevku so prikazani tipi enostanovanjske hiše, kakršni so se na območju Slovenije pojavili v prejšnjem stoletju. Tipologija novodobne enostanovanjske hiše sloni na oblikovnih lastnostih, na krajevnem izvoru ter na obdobju, ko se je hiša pojavila. V prepoznanih tipih ni mogoče zaznati pokrajinskih (regionalnih) posebnosti, kot to velja za kmečko hišo, pomembnejši je čas nastanka, ki odraža vrednote, tehniko gradnje in oblikovanje bivalnega okolja.

Geo-Archaeological endowments and the tourism development in Eritrea
Authors: Afsar Alam Mohammad , Mishra Niraj Kumar
Published: April 2024

Eritrea is one of the countries located in the horn of Africa. Geo-Archaeological sites of the country have been the main focus of the study area. This paper presents an overview of the research and includes a discussion of the tourism potential of Eritrea and potential benefits of Geo-Archaeological endowments in the development of its tourism industry. She is having diverse Geo-Archaeological endowments which are capable of attracting large number of tourists from all over the world. This country enjoys unique and exciting landmarks, such as breath-taking escarpments, mountains, depressions, open plains, plateaus, Sea with immense variety of marine life, islands, beautiful coastal lines etc. Furthermore, as Eritrea is situated in the region of the cradle of life, it owns rare archaeological and historical sites with unraveled cultural heritages. Though, Eritrea’s tourism industry is currently rated as one of the lowest foreign exchange earners in the country, the potential of tourism industry to become a leading source of foreign exchange earnings in Eritrea has not been far realized. It is evident that the country’s tourism potential has not been fully explored and marketed. Though several attempts have been made to enhance its rapid development, but these efforts have suffered some major drawbacks i.e. because the richness of the sites is not fully exploited to such an extent that it can revitalize the tourism sector and due to lack of a comprehensive spatial database of tourism facilities and destinations. In the present paper an attempt has been made to investigate the role of Geo-Archaeological Sites in the Development of Tourism with respect to tourism potentials in the country.
Vpliv prihoda različnih skupin turistov po državni pripadnosti na obseg turističnega obiska v Rogaški Slatini med letoma 1953 in 2012
Authors: Horvat Uroš
Published: April 2024

V prispevku je analiziran obseg turističnega obiska v Rogaški Slatini v zadnjih šestdesetih letih v povezavi z državno pripadnostjo turistov. Ugotovljeno je, da je bil turistični obisk ves čas bolj ali manj odvisen od prihoda turistov iz le nekaj najpomembnejših držav. Spremembe turističnih tokov so zato posledično močno vplivale na njegov obseg in značilnosti. V celotnem obdobju so večino turistov v kraju predstavljali tuji turisti. Obdobje do konca 80. let so zaznamovali predvsem turisti iz drugih republik bivše Jugoslavije in Avstrije, drugo polovico 90. let in po letu 2000 iz Italije, po letu 2010 pa iz Ruske federacije. Turisti iz Slovenije so bili najpomembnejša skupina turistov le v 90. letih, to je v času največje krize v zdravilišču.
Koncept in model teritorialne kohezije – geografski vidik
Authors: Grižančič Sabina
Published: April 2024

Oktobra 2008 je Evropska komisija izdala Zeleno knjigo o teritorialni koheziji, ki je sprožila obsežno diskusijo o konceptu teritorialne kohezije. Ta je skupaj z ekonomsko in socialno kohezijo cilj, ki ga zasleduje Evropska unija. Čeprav številni strokovnjaki opozarjajo, da implementacija teritorialne kohezije (TK) brez jasne definicije in kazalnikov ne more biti uspešna, ostaja koncept teritorialne kohezije še danes nedorečen. Pričujoči članek podaja povzetek obsežne študije koncepta teritorialne kohezije, ki se je ukvarjala z geografsko definicijo teritorialne kohezije (prostorske povezanosti), določitvijo kazalnikov in izdelavo modela za merjenje TK. Na koncu je predstavljen primer merjenja TK na primeru NUTS 3 regij Slovenije.
Spremembe rabe tal v Mariborskih goricah v obdobju 2000-2014 v luči izbranih fizičnogeografskih kazalcev
Authors: Žiberna Igor
Published: April 2024

V članku so analizirane spremembe rabe tal na območju Mariborskih goric v obdobju 2000-2014. Obravnavanih je enajst zemljiških kategorij, za katere smo spremembe rabe tal primerjali z nadmorskimi višinami, relativnimi višinami, nakloni pobočij, ekspozicijami pobočij, globalnim sončnim obsevanjem, tipi prsti in litološko zgradbo. Posebej smo analizirali spremembe vinogradniških površin glede na vinogradniške bonitete (topoklimatsko ugodne lege) in ugotavljali izkoriščenost le teh. Analiza je pokazala, da so za obravnavano obdobje v Mariborskih goricah značilni izraziti procesi ekstenzifikacije in velika neizkoriščenost prvorazrednih vinogradniških leg.
Between cultural and natural heritage: pluralism in planning tourism products for rescuing “the lost (Ogoja) province”, north-central Cross River State, Nigeria
Authors: Ingwe Richard
Published: April 2024

The planning of tourism products in the north-central Cross River State (corresponding to ‘old Ogoja province) is examined in this study. Explained in the article are: justification of the need for undertaking community-based tourism development strategy as a means of reducing inter-regional disparity in development aroused by historical discrimination against the region through eras of Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, colonialism, and successive post-independent governments; creation of special development funds aimed at addressing challenges posed by personalization of government thereby creating governance deficits; and descriptions of the tourism potentials/resources of the north-central Cross River State. Rather than adopting the advice of tourism experts in the 1960s that African countries ought to prefer to design cultural-heritage tourism products aiming towards attracting some 145 million tourists from the United States of America (USA) who might be satiated with natural heritage tourism products offered back home. Here, it is argued here that considering myriad socio-economic-political dynamics thereafter –including anti-African/Nigerian political measures such as barring US citizens from visiting Nigeria or parts of it- there is no need concentrating on such restricted tourism products. This is justified by the fact that with nearly 170 million population –most of whom are expecting to move from poverty towards the middle class among other prosperous economic statuses and who do not need to immediately access foreign natural heritage tourism, there is need for north-central Cross River State –a region possessing diverse tourism resources to plan tourism products that seek to integrate natural heritage with the cultural varieties in order to properly capture both local and foreign tourists. Foreign tourists here covers a larger spectrum beyond US visitors including visitors from large and increasing number of member states of the United Nations.

A percepção do professor-gestor sobre capacitação e desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais na UFRN
Authors: Mendes Sabrina Rosa , Medeiros Marcos Fernando Machado de , Costa Maria Teresa Pires
Published: April 2024

Sob a luz da Política Nacional de Desenvolvimento de Pessoal da Administração Pública Federal - PNPD e respectivas atualizações, esta pesquisa tem como principal objetivo analisar a percepção do professor-gestor sobre a relevância da capacitação e desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais na sua atuação como gestor na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. A metodologia quali-quantitativa combina pesquisa aplicada, descritiva, e levantamento de campo, utilizando a análise documental, a análise de conteúdo e a estatística descritiva para a análise dos resultados. Para a coleta de dados utilizou-se o método de grupo focal e questionário on-line. Os resultados do grupo focal permitiram identificar que a forma como os docentes desenvolvem suas competências ao assumirem cargos de gestão acontece na prática, na vivência do dia a dia, pois existem competências que não podem ser desenvolvidas a partir de capacitações, sendo estas mais efetivas para desenvolver competências técnicas e operacionais. Na percepção da maioria dos professores-gestores, os efeitos e impactos da capacitação, em termos de desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais, ainda não são percebidos na prática.
Experiências Premiadas de Inovação em Organizações Públicas Brasileiras: práticas organizacionais e relações com competências coletivas
Authors: Lins Carolina Teixeira de Miranda , Santos Wagner Soares Fernandes
Published: April 2024

Esta pesquisa foi realizada com o objetivo de analisar as práticas organizacionais relacionadas às competências coletivas que receberam prêmios de inovação em organizações públicas brasileiras. Para tal foi utilizada uma abordagem qualitativa com triangulação de dados obtidos em 14 entrevistas e 19 relatórios referentes às equipes premiadas na categoria 1 do Concurso Inovação no Setor Público entre 2018 e 2022, os quais foram submetidos a análise de conteúdo. Como principais resultados foram identificadas cinco práticas organizacionais relacionadas às competências coletivas enumeradas no modelo validado por Montezano (2021): incentivo à inovação, suporte organizacional, estabelecimento de parcerias, de redes formais e informais e realização de treinamentos e capacitações. Como contribuições teóricas podem ser citadas a identificação de práticas organizacionais associadas às competências coletivas voltadas à inovação e aprofundamento da compreensão quanto ao nível das equipes, pouco contemplado em pesquisas científicas conforme verificado em revisão de literatura. Os resultados desta pesquisa podem subsidiar a adoção de práticas organizacionais associadas ao perfil inovativo, estimular equipes de trabalho a desenvolverem competências inovativas e possibilitar melhor compreensão do desempenho e das competências coletivas nas organizações públicas.
„Wśród kominów Łodzi” Marii Przedborskiej – wiersze społecznie zaangażowane
Authors: Pietrych Krystyna
Published: April 2024

Artykuł przypomina Marię Przedborską, postać wyjątkową dla łódzkiego środowiska inteligenckiego i robotniczego w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym. Najpierw przedstawiona została jej aktywność zawodowa i społeczna, wynikająca z pełnienia przez nią funkcji inspektorki pracy w łódzkich fabrykach, a następnie zaprezentowana jej twórczość publicystyczna i poetycka. Przedborska-inspektorka zarówno swoją aktywnością zawodową, jak i działalnością publicystyczną starała się zmieniać istniejące stosunki społeczne, walcząc w ten sposób o poprawę losu łódzkich robotników. Takie samo zadanie postawiła sobie Przedborska-poetka w cyklu wierszy Wśród kominów Łodzi, publikowanym na łamach „Głosu Porannego” w latach 1932–1936. Wiersze składające się na ten cykl czerpiące bezpośrednią inspirację z obserwacji, jakie wyniosła Przedborska ze swej inspektorskiej działalności, przynoszą liczne świadectwa życia i pracy łódzkich robotnic i robotników zatrudnionych w zakładach włókienniczych. Pokazują najbardziej niszczące jednostkę aspekty funkcjonowania wielkoprzemysłowych fabryk w dobie Wielkiego Kryzysu lat 30.XX wieku: pracę ponad siły, wypadki przy maszynach, zwolnienia, bezrobocie, choroby, głód, nędzę, prostytucję. Przedborska w swojej poezji pokazuje miasto wielkoprzemysłowe, przechodzące radykalne przemiany polityczne i społeczne, będące skutkiem przyśpieszonego uprzemysłowienia, którym nie towarzyszyły szerokie zmiany modernizacyjne. Utwory Przedborskiej nie realizują tylko funkcji dokumentarnej, równie ważne jest w nich solidarnościowe opowiedzenie się po stronie robotników, apelowanie do poczucia społecznej wrażliwości oraz obrona tych, których negatywne aspekty procesów modernizacyjnych dotknęły w stopniu największym.
Pedagogika patrzenia. Sztuka jako narzędzie modernizacji społecznej
Authors: Karczewski Leszek
Published: April 2024

Tekst analizuje debatę o rolach realizmu i irracjonalności w sztuce, szczególnie na przykładzie pism Władysława Strzemińskiego, Karola Hillera i grupy Jung Jidysz, działających w Łodzi międzywojnia. Kosmopolityczne środowisko artystyczne awangardy wizualnej zarówno realizm, jak i pierwiastki irracjonalne w sztuce, reinterpretowało jako narzędzia modernizacji społecznej.
Merkuriańska Łódź i antyczne ikony nowoczesności
Authors: Owczarek Przemysław
Published: April 2024

Od połowy XIX w. w miastach przemysłowych pojawiają się liczne detale architektoniczne eksponujące postać i atrybuty Hermesa – Merkurego, greckiego boga handlu, kupców i złodziei, opiekuna podróżnych, posłańca bogów i psychopomposa, władcy pisma i komunikacji, pieniądza i wszelkich miar, proroka w postaci helleńskiego Hermesa Trismegistosa i strażnika wiedzy tajemnej oraz patrona wolnomularstwa (czarodzieja i lekarza z różdżką kaduceuszem). To jedyny grecki i pogański bóg, którego wizerunki i obecność naznaczyły tak mocno dzieje kultury Zachodu. Merkuriańskie detale spotykamy na fasadach fabryk, pałaców, kamienic i banków, wszędzie tam, gdzie poprzez bryłę budynku i jego przeznaczenie burżuazja święciła triumf panowania nad światowym przepływem pieniądza. Hermes – Merkury stał się patronem przemysłu, starożytną ikoną nowoczesności i kapitalizmu. Centra miast dziewiętnastowiecznej architektury to swego rodzaju przejścia, pasaże, ciągi komunikacyjne architektury stylu historycznego oraz idei i towarów, to strumienie, którymi płynie krew kapitalizmu – pieniądz. Ten sprytny bóg, jako merkuriusz w alchemii odpowiadający płynnej rtęci, jest intrygującym obrazem nowoczesności postrzeganej jako płynna i ulotna w myśli wielkiego teoretyka modernizmu, Karola Marksa. Jego sentencja diagnozy nowoczesności: Wszystko, co stałe, rozpływa się w powietrzu – inspirowała takich badaczy jak: Walter Benjamin, Zygmunt Bauman, Georg Steiner i Marschal Bermann. Ich myśl stała się punktem wyjścia dla swoistego przeglądu merkuriańskich detali i architektury Łodzi, której centrum wyznaczył nie rynek właściwy dla miast przednowoczesnych, ale trakt-pasaż. Założycielem przemysłowej Łodzi był wolnomularz Rajmund Rembieliński.
Contrapunto
Authors: Del Castillo Ames Lucero , Vich Víctor
Published: April 2024

Este proyecto se pregunta por el diálogo entre fotografía y poesía. La imagen convoca a un poema y este, a su vez, emplaza a otra imagen en el marco de un despliegue de preguntas sobre las condiciones en las que habitamos el mundo. La secuencia dialoga con aquello que preocupa de uno mismo y con eso que abre y cierra la vida en dinámicas de placer y padecimiento. La idea es que ambos registros se sobredeterminan para corresponderse, para producir una fricción, para marcar la opacidad de una experiencia, para abrir líneas de sentido, para apuntar a aquello que no tiene palabra o para intentar bordear algo innombrable. ¿Qué es lo dialógico detrás del monólogo de la producción artística? El proyecto emerge como una exploración estética de dos personas que han intentado re-articular discursos diferentes y que han buscado otra forma de conversar.
Micorremediación: el caso de Pleurotus ostreatus sobre polímeros sintéticos como el acetato de celulosa

Published: April 2024

Los hongos pueden ser utilizados para remover o degradar compuestos contaminantes por medio de un proceso de micorremediación. En ocasiones incluso de manera más eficiente que los procariotas, por lo que pueden ser utilizados para combatir la contaminación de polímeros no biodegradables. El acetato de celulosa es un material comúnmente utilizado en la fabricación de colillas de cigarrillos, por lo que al ser descartado genera contaminación. El hongo Pleurotus ostreatus tiene la capacidad de degradar acetato de celulosa por medio de las enzimas que secreta. La enzima se encarga de hidrolizar el grupo acetilo del acetato de celulosa mientras que enzimas celulolíticas degradan el esqueleto de celulosa en azúcares, polisacáridos o celobiosa. Además del acetato de celulosa, este hongo es capaz de degradar otros polímeros convencionalmente no biodegradables por lo que tiene el potencial de ser utilizado para reducir la contaminación. El cultivo del hongo a gran escala ha demostrado ser más viable económicamente que los métodos de tratamiento convencionales de polímeros no biodegradables lo cual es una ventaja adicional que presenta.
Evaluación de la calidad fisicoquÍmica en cápsulas de cefalexina 500 mg
Authors: Pereira-Leiva Samantha , Pérez-López Esteban
Published: April 2024

El presente artículo contiene los detalles sobre el estudio realizado a la calidad fisicoquímica en las cápsulas de cefalexina de 500 mg que se comercializan en Costa Rica. La cefalexina es un antibiótico de uso frecuente que permite combatir las infecciones causadas por bacterias gramnegativas, grampositivas, y es de gran demanda debido a que presenta poca toxicidad y un amplio margen terapéutico según señalan distintos autores. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue determinar la calidad durante su vida de anaquel, de las cápsulas de cefalexina 500 mg, en cuanto a los principales parámetros fisicoquímicos evaluables. La metodología se basó en realizar un muestreo aleatorio a nivel de farmacias de la zona central del país y adquirir la cantidad de dosis (cápsulas) necesarias de un mismo lote de cada una de las marcas que fueran ubicadas en dichos comercios, para proceder a someterlas a las principales pruebas de calidad en el Laboratorio de Química del Recinto de Grecia de la Universidad de Costa Rica según lo establecido en la Farmacopea de los Estados Unidos (USP 43). Los resultados evidencian que, para la prueba de ensayo de principio activo, el contenido de cefalexina en las cinco marcas contempladas está entre 99-103% de lo etiquetado; para la prueba de disolución las cinco marcas oscilaron entre 110-117% de principio activo disuelto de la cantidad declarada en la etiqueta, y en la prueba de uniformidad por variación de peso los resultados reflejan que el valor de aceptación (AV) obtenido oscila entre 3 y 12 en las distintas marcas. En conclusión, se determinó el cumplimiento de las cinco marcas contempladas en cuanto a los criterios USP establecidos: para la prueba de potencia de principio activo 90-120% de lo etiquetado, la prueba de disolución ninguna dosis es menor al 85% (Q+5%) disuelto, y para la prueba de variación de peso el AV ≤ 15.
