Η θεώρηση του Vygotsky για την τυπική και «παρεμποδισμένη» ανάπτυξη
Authors: Τζουριάδου Μαρία
Published: March 2021

Vygotsky has advocated that the dialectical relation between typical and impeded development carries a unique quality. His approach to development requires a holistic, qualitative education that addresses the entire personality. The theoretical approaches that were transferred into and adopted by pedagogy were the unities of the individualism and collectivism, and the zone of proximal development (ZPD). Vygotsky’s educational approach to childhood resulted from two alternating pathways of his thought: his broader interest in language and his personal experiences and achievements. In the context of his dialectical approach, he views the typical and atypical impeded child’s development as a joint unit and therefore atypical development is a unique quality dialectically associated with typical development. The term “defectology” he introduced describes the study of atypical impeded development of children with physical and mental deficiencies. A child’s handicap concurs with the two pathways of development that typical development follows: that of biological maturity and that of socialization process during which a child acquires knowledge and the capacity to use cultural tools, i.e. to use higher mental functioning through collective activities. Most often a handicapped child with deficits is unable to cope with the school structure or to participate in learning activities without adult support (ZPD). In this context, Vygotsky claims that the education of these children can be appropriated through a roundabout approach that aims to reconstruct the child’s personality in terms of dialectical relations and activities compatible to the child’s cultural environment; thus children with deficits are treated as productive members within the environment they belong to. In the context of contemporary inclusive education, Vygotsky’s ideas can contribute to the implementation of differentiating instruction, collaborative teaching and collective activities through the child’s daily social activities, practices that promote alternative ways of action and teaching that benefit all children.

Geometry is a structural component of mathematics, with increased spatial and design requirements that cannot be easily met by students with mild disabilities. Systematic investigation of the difficulties encountered by students with mild disabilities in their effort to learn Geometry is a prerequisite for the implementation of effective intervention programs. However, research on this issue is relatively scarce. The aim of the present study was to assess the geometric knowledge of 54 students with mild disabilities (learning disabilities or ADHD) who attended the two last classes of elementary school. Participants were asked to recognize, describe and categorize geometric shapes and solid bodies that were presented in tactile mode and through pictorial representations. Semi-structured clinical interviews were used for gathering the data in the context of Curriculum Based Assessment and the Van Hiele’s model of geometrical thinking. Participants of both categories of mild disabilities presented difficulties in distinguishing shapes and bodies, properly using the terminology, and formatting inductive geometrical reasoning. Participants with learning disabilities had higher achievement when dealing with haptic relative to pictorial representations of geometric shapes and bodies. Sixth graders performed better than fifth graders. Results are discussed in terms of the differences between the two categories of mild disabilities as well as with regard to the implementation of intervention programs.

In this study, we investigated the perceptual function of deaf/hard of hearing children. The sample of the study consisted of 58 pupils aged 8-13 years old (3rd-6th graders) with severe (60-90 db) or profound (90 db and above) neurosensory hearing loss – pre-lingual with or without cochlear implants. Children with co-morbidity (intellectual disabilities, syndromes, autism, motor disorders, etc.) and children with post-lingual deafness/hearing impairment were excluded. In order to investigate their perceptual function, the Perceptual Functionality Criterion was used. The results of the study show that deaf/hard of hearing participants exhibit a “sporadic” profile regarding the general perceptual functionality. In particular, the participants were found to perform similarly in terms of visual-perceptive skills, while there was one exception, i.e. their visual-motor skills were worse. Higher scores have been shown in the domain of kinesthetic and tactile perception and lower ones regarding vestigial perception, especially in terms of the sense of balance. In addition, the perceptual function was investigated among the cochlear implant participants and those with conventional hearing aids. The results showed no significant differences between the two groups regarding the perceptual function, although the visual perception was found to be significantly better among the users of conventional hearing aids relative to cochlear implant users. Finally, the perceptual function was investigated in terms of the main method of language/communication used. The data indicated that participants, regardless of whether they use sign language, total/bilingual or oral communication, performed roughly similarly on the test variables. Among the different types of main method of language/communication, statistically significant differences were absent, though regarding the visual and kinesthetic perception sign language users outperformed the users of oral communication.

The aim of this study is to examine the prevalence of materialistic values among Greek adolescents and its associations with well-being measures, such as life satisfaction and self-esteem. Materialistic values were investigated within the wider context of their life goals and aspirations. A growing body of evidence in adults suggests that a strong focus on materialistic values is associated with low self-esteem, depression, problems of psychosocial adjustment and lower life satisfaction. Four hundred sixty-eight adolescents aged 13-15 years completed a structured questionnaire entailing the Material Values Scale (Richins, 2004), Rosenberg’s (1965) global Self-esteem Scale and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., 1985). Young adolescents’ life goals and aspirations were measured with the Aspiration Index (Kasser & Ryan, 1993) assessing the relative strength of intrinsic versus extrinsic aspirations. The findings of the study suggest that investment in materialistic values was associated with lower self-esteem and life satisfaction. Materialism was related to extrinsic life aspirations. The interpretation of the findings and their implications on adolescents’ well-being are discussed.

Research findings have shown associations between smoking and bullying behavior, but they have not yet offered a clear picture concerning students involved in bully/victim incidents and whether they had tried addictive substances. Additionally, it seems that the less students feel connected to their school, the more they try addictive substances and the more they get involved in bullying/victimization. The main aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between bullying/victimization, school bonding during adolescence and whether students had tried substances. The sample consisted of 779 students (426 boys and 353 girls) of middle and high schools who were administered a questionnaire concerning school bullying/victimization (categorization of students in bullies, victims, bully/victims and not involved), four parameters of school bonding, namely commitment, attachment, involvement and faith in school rules, and whether they had tried legal and illegal addictive substances. Results showed that the more the students felt connected to their school, the less they had tried addictive substances. Bullies and bully/victims had tried more substances than victims and students not involved in bully/victim incidents, while they felt less connected to their school in terms of commitment and attachment. There was not any statistically significant relationship between involvement in school activities and bullying/victimization. As far as faith in school rules is concerned, not involved students exhibited the highest scores and bully/victims the lowest. The results of this study confirm previous findings in the field of bullying/victimization and are discussed in terms of their implications for school-based interventions.

The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between state and trait anxiety, self-efficacy beliefs, and strengths and difficulties among fifth and sixth graders in Greek primary schools. The survey took place at ten randomly selected schools in Western Greece, five urban schools and five semi-urban schools. Five hundred and sixty-one students completed the State-Trait Inventory for Children, the New Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ-Hel). The results revealed few differences between fifth and sixth graders in the domain of strengths and difficulties, with the former students having greater difficulties. Also, as regards state anxiety, the study found residence-related discrepancies, with semi-urban children experiencing greater state anxiety than urban children. As was expected, trait anxiety correlated with state anxiety. Moreover, strengths and difficulties correlated with anxiety, especially with trait anxiety. Negative correlations were revealed between self-efficacy and anxiety. Finally, the results confirmed that strengths and difficulties predict trait anxiety. These results could lead to the conclusion that higher levels of self-efficacy can reduce anxiety, especially when difficulties related to children’s behavior have already been diminished, thus contributing to the improvement of students’ well-being as well as facilitating the learning process.

The difficulties in writing among children with dyslexia are equally severe as and certainly more persistent than those they face in reading. In the present study, we compared the performance of 22 elementary school children (3rd and 5th graders) with dyslexia and 22 typically developing children, matched on gender, age, and non-verbal intelligence, on a picture-elicited narrative task. Participants’ written samples were evaluated in terms of productivity, complexity at the sentence and text levels, punctuation and capitalization, spelling accuracy, and text organization (cohesion and coherence). Groups differed chiefly in terms of spelling accuracy and cohesion, as non-dyslexic participants performed better. Qualitative analyses of the narratives produced allowed us to compare further and gain insight into the children’s spelling and text organization abilities in each group. Coherence appeared to be the domain in which children with and without dyslexia demonstrate the greatest similarities. More specifically, all of them face difficulties in controlling the macrostructure of their narratives, namely how the contents of the pictures may be interrelated, an ability that is necessary for the construction of textual meaning. Results are discussed in relation to the limited so far research findings regarding written language production, especially concerning children with dyslexia. Also, directions of future research are indicated, along with implications for educational practice.

Recover and They’ll Come: Flower Visiting Bees Benefit from the Continuous of Micro-Environments Set by Regenerating Forest Fragments

Published: March 2021

Forest habitats are important sources of food and nesting resources for pollinators, primarily in urban areas and landscapes with intense agricultural activity. The forest fragmentation and environmental changes occurring in these green refuges are known to impose survival challenges to pollinating bees, leading to species loss. However, it is not well known how the species of bees that visit flowers are distributed in forest micro-environments. To fill this gap, we sampled flower visiting bees in a continuous forest matrix with micro-environments of two forest types (mature and regenerating forest). We examined how the local environmental changes and climatic conditions affect the composition and uniformity of bee communities in the different micro-environments. Our results indicated that both abundance and richness were similar between forest types studied here, however climatic conditions and plant flowering patterns affect the composition of bees. Thus, our results demonstrated that the continuous micro-environments can favor floral visits and the reintegration of bee communities, and still, that this strategy can be used to minimize the impacts of environmental changes at local scales.

Published: March 2021

The aim of the current article is to present results of three studies about the so-called Reconceptualisation Movement in Brazil, based on the historical rescue of significant and exemplifying expressions used in the country from 1960 to 1970. The analysed studies have focused on investigating the economic and social significance of the military dictatorship to Brazilian society. They aimed at unveiling the historical background, sociopolitical bases and theoretical-methodological references guiding social service professional projects in the country at that time. The herein conducted analysis was based on documentary and bibliographic sources, collections, and testimonials to identify the strengths of projects that were in compliance with, and in opposition to, each other due to the tense theoretical and ideological dispute for hegemony in the Brazilian social service renewal process.

Published: March 2021

Cylindrical vector beams (CVBs), which possess polarization distribution of rotational symmetry on the transverse plane, can be developed in many optical technologies. Conventional methods to generate CVBs contain redundant interferometers or need to switch among diverse elements, thus being inconvenient in applications containing multiple CVBs. Here we provide a passive polarization-selective device to substitute interferometers and simplify generation setup. It is accomplished by reversing topological charges of orbital angular momentum based on a polarization-selective Gouy phase. In the process, tunable input light is the only condition to generate a CVB with arbitrary topological charges. To cover both azimuthal and radial parameters of CVBs, we express the mapping between scalar Laguerre–Gaussian light on a basic Poincaré sphere and CVB on a high-order Poincaré sphere. The proposed device simplifies the generation of CVBs enormously and thus has potential in integrated devices for both quantum and classic optical experiments.

action potentials (dCaAPs) based on a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) for the first time. The biological pyramidal neural dynamics dominated by dCaAPs indicates that the dendritic electrode evoked somatic spikes with current near threshold but failed to evoke (or evoked less) somatic spikes for higher current intensity. The emulating neuron-like dynamics is performed optically based on the injection locking, spiking dynamics, and damped oscillations in the optically injected VCSEL. In addition, the exclusive OR (XOR) classification task is examined in the VCSEL neuron equipped with the pyramidal neuron-like dynamics dominated by dCaAPs. Furthermore, a single spike or multiple periodic spikes are suggested to express the result of the XOR classification task for enhancing the processing rate or accuracy. The experimental and numerical results show that the XOR classification task is achieved successfully in the VCSEL neuron enabled to mimic the pyramidal neuron-like dynamics dominated by dCaAPs. This work reveals valuable pyramidal neuron-like dynamics in a VCSEL and offers a novel approach to solve XOR classification task with a fast and simple all-optical spiking neural network, and hence shows great potentials for future photonic spiking neural networks and photonic neuromorphic computing.
Microplastic effects on carbon cycling processes in soils
Authors: Rillig Matthias C. , Leifheit Eva , Lehmann Johannes
Published: March 2021

Microplastics (MPs), plastic particles <5 mm, are found in environments, including terrestrial ecosystems, planetwide. Most research so far has focused on ecotoxicology, examining effects on performance of soil biota in controlled settings. As research pivots to a more ecosystem and global change perspective, questions about soil-borne biogeochemical cycles become important. MPs can affect the carbon cycle in numerous ways, for example, by being carbon themselves and by influencing soil microbial processes, plant growth, or litter decomposition. Great uncertainty surrounds nano-sized plastic particles, an expected by-product of further fragmentation of MPs. A major concerted effort is required to understand the pervasive effects of MPs on the functioning of soils and terrestrial ecosystems; importantly, such research needs to capture the immense diversity of these particles in terms of chemistry, aging, size, and shape.
Brain mass explains prey size selection better than beak, gizzard and body size in a benthivorous duck species
Authors: Laursen Karsten , Møller Anders Pape
Published: March 2021

Prey size selection in some bird species is determined by the size of the beak. However, we assumed for bird species swallowing whole prey that a cognitive process may be involved. As cognitive feature, brain mass was used. We hypothesized that the mass of the brain was more strongly positively correlated with prey size than morphological features such as beak volume, gizzard mass and body mass. We tested this hypothesis on eiders Somateria mollissima that swallow the prey whole, by using mean and maximum size of nine prey categories. Eiders were collected at the main wintering grounds in Denmark. As index of brain mass we used head volume, which is positively correlated with brain mass (r2 = 0.73). Head volume of eiders was significantly, positive correlated with mean and maximum size of blue mussels Mytilus edulis, razor clams Ensis directus and all prey sizes combined and the maximum size of draft whelk Hinia reticulata and conch Buccinum undatum. Gizzard mass was also significantly positively correlated with maximum size of draft whelk and conch. Beak volume and body mass was not significantly correlated with the size of any of the nine food items. Analyses of effect size for organs showed that head volume was positively related to prey size, whereas beak volume, gizzard mass and body mass did not show a significant positive relationship. These results indicate that cognitive processes connected to brain mass may be involved in prey size selection by eiders.
Assessing the relationship between the human learned helplessness depression model and anhedonia
Authors: Song Xin , Vilares Iris
Published: March 2021

The learned helplessness (LH) model is one of the most commonly used acute stress models to explain depression and it has shown good face and predictive validity. However, despite being able to induce depressed-like behaviors and corresponding psychophysiological changes, there is little evidence showing that the LH paradigm can produce anhedonia, a core symptom seen in all forms of depression in humans. So far a couple of studies showed that rodents bred for helplessness develop anhedonic-like behaviors in response to stress; yet, to the best of our knowledge, no similar human research has tried to investigate the direct relationship between the LH model and anhedonia. In the present study, we use a modified version of the original LH task to experimentally and temporarily induce learned helplessness in college students and then examine if the human LH paradigm induces anhedonia. We aim to 1: address the ill-defined connection between the LH model and anhedonia, and 2: directly assess helplessness in humans as opposed to the majority of non-human animal subjects used in the helplessness literature. We believe that our study will fill an important gap in the learned helplessness model literature, and will advance our understanding of the relationship between depression and perceived control, as well as place limitations to what can and cannot be inferred from non-human animal data in this topic.
Development of a conflict-free unsignalized intersection organization method for multiple connected and autonomous vehicles
Authors: Ma Qinglu , Zhang Shu , Zhou Qi
Published: March 2021

An effective traffic control strategy will improve travel reliability in urban transportation networks. Lack of coordination between vehicles, however, exacerbates congestion due mainly to frequent stops at unsignalized intersections. It is beneficial to develop a conflict-free cooperation method that collects basic safety message from multiple approaching Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (for short, CAVs) and guarantees efficient unsignalized intersection operations with safe and incident free vehicle maneuvers. This paper proposes an interspersed traffic organization method under controlled constraints. Firstly, relied on shared location technology and considered the operating characteristics of CAVs at unsignalized intersections to detect and analyze traffic conflicts to establish a right-of-way judgment model for CAVs. In order to further ensure the safety and operating efficiency of the vehicle, based on the judgment results of right-of-way judgment model, a vehicle speed guidance model is established for different traffic conditions. Taking the real city standard intersection as the experimental analysis object, through data collection and simulation experiment, the signal control method and the organization method proposed in this paper are compared and analyzed. The results showed that the traffic organization method proposed in this paper improves the operational efficiency of 46%, the average travel time is reduced by 6.54s, which is not only better than the signal control method, but also supports the development of car networking technology.
Acute tryptophan depletion in healthy subjects increases preferences for negative reciprocity
Authors: Bengart Paul , Gruendler Theo , Vogt Bodo
Published: March 2021

Reciprocity motivates to reward those who are kind (= positive reciprocity) and to punish those who are unkind (= negative reciprocity). The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) modulates human behavior in numerous social situations, such as retaliation in response to perceived unfairness. In a placebo-controlled study, we used acute tryptophan depletion (ATD) to investigate the influence of available serotonin on choice behavior and reciprocity in the Hawk-Dove game. This game illustrates a conflict situation and incorporates two potential strategies: the cooperative Dove strategy and the uncooperative, more aggressive Hawk strategy. After strategic choices, we elicited the subjects’ expectations (= beliefs) regarding the opponent’s choices and controlled for risk preferences and current mood. We defined strategy choices as negative reciprocity when the participants opted for Hawk in response to an expected Hawk. We hypothesized that the ATD-induced reduction of 5-HT availability would increase participants’ preferences for negative reciprocity. Generalized estimating equations reveal no significant main effect of ATD on assessed belief, mood, or risk attitude. But assessment of ATD’s marginal effects over beliefs suggests that ATD significantly increases the tendency for negative reciprocity, whereas positive reciprocity (Dove in response to an expected Dove) is unaffected. We could therefore demonstrate that 5-HT availability mediates (negative) reciprocal behavior in social decision-making.
Natural oil blend formulation as an anti-African swine fever virus agent in in vitro primary porcine alveolar macrophage culture
Authors: Truong Quang Lam , Nguyen Lan Thi , Babikian Haig Yousef , Jha Rajeev Kumar , Nguyen Hoa Thi , To Thanh Long
Published: March 2021

Background and Aim: African swine fever is one of the severe pathogens of swine. It has a significant impact on production and economics. So far, there are no known remedies, such as vaccines or drugs, reported working successfully. In the present study, the natural oil blend formulation's (NOBF) efficacy was evaluated against ASFV in vitro using porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) cells of swine.

Materials and Methods: The capacity of NOBF against the ASFV was tested in vitro. The NOBF combines Eucalyptus globulus, Pinus sylvestris, and Lavandula latifolia. We used a 2-fold serial dilution to test the NOBF formulation dose, that is, 105 HAD50/mL, against purified lethal dose of African swine in primary PAMs cells of swine. The PAM cells survival, real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, and hemadsorption (HAD) observation were performed to check the NOBF efficacy against ASFV.

Results: The in vitro trial results demonstrated that NOBF up to dilution 13 or 0.000625 mL deactivates the lethal dose 105 HAD50 of ASFV. There was no HAD (Rosetta formation) up to dilution 12 or 0.00125 mL of NOBF. The Ct value obtained by running real-time PCR of the NOBF group at 96 h post-infection was the same as the initial value or lower (25), whereas the Ct value of positive controls increased several folds (17.84).

Conclusion: The in vitro trial demonstrated that NOBF could deactivate the ASFV. The NOBF has the potential to act as anti-ASFV agent in the field. The next step is to conduct in vivo level trial to determine its efficacy.

Published: March 2021

Background and Aim: The present serodiagnosis of brucellosis in livestock is based on the whole cell or smooth lipopolysaccharide of the Brucella organism in which specificity is hampered by the cross-reactivity, especially with the antibodies against Yersinia enterocolitica O:9 organism. The problem can be addressed by screening for better immunodominant antigens. Hence, the present study was undertaken to screen protein antigens of Brucella abortus for their diagnostic potential in cattle brucellosis.

Materials and Methods: Protein antigens of B. abortus (n=10) non-reactive to antibodies against Y. enterocolitica O:9 were selected, expressed in Escherichia coli, assessed the reactivity of expressed recombinant proteins by Western blot, standardized indirect-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting Brucella antibodies in cattle serum, and comparative evaluation was done.

Results: All the selected protein antigens were expressed and in the Western blot with Brucella antibodies positive cattle serum, six recombinant (Brucella protein 26 [BP26], Cu-Zn Superoxide dismutase [SodC], B. abortus I-1885, Serine protease, Bacterioferritin, and Brucella Lumazine Synthase [BLS]) proteins showed reaction whereas none of the proteins showed reactivity with Brucella negative cattle serum. ELISA has been done using known Brucella positive and negative cattle sera samples (n=113 each) in which the performance of recombinant proteins in diagnosing brucellosis was in the order of BP26 > BLS > SodC followed by rest of the proteins. BP26 based ELISA was found to be better with area under the curve as 0.953, and diagnostic sensitivity, diagnostic specificity, and Youden's index of 90.27%, 95.58%, and 0.8584, respectively, with the excellent agreement (k=0.85).

Conclusion: BP26 could be a potential diagnostic antigen among the immunodominant proteins of B. abortus in ruling out Y. enterocolitica O:9 infection while diagnosing brucellosis in cattle herds.
MIGRASI ORANG TUA DAN KOGNITIF ANAK: ANALISIS DATA IFLS 2007 DAN 2014
Authors: Zahra Lutvianti
Published: March 2021

Study about migration commonly focuses on the migrants themselves. However, some studies showed that migration also has economic and social impacts on their families, including their children. Cognitive ability is one of the fundamental aspects of child human capital development. This research aims to study the effect of parental migration on children's cognitive ability. This study employs longitudinal data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) in 2007 and 2014 analysed using the Pooled Least Square method and Instrumental Variable Two-Step Least Square (IV 2SLS). Descriptive results show a decline in the average cognitive score of children aged 14-25 years. Moreover, there were no significant differences in cognitive scores between children of migrant parents and non-migrant parents. Inferential results also found that parental migration did not significantly affect children's cognitive ability. Children's cognition is influenced by other characteristics such as age, sex, years of schooling, mother's education, per capita education expenditure, and area of residence.
PROSPEK MEGA-DEMOGRAFI MENUJU INDONESIA EMAS 2045
Authors: Ananta Aris
Published: March 2021

The Digital revolution has gone hand in hand with the demographic revolution, featuring the future of Indonesia and the world. Everything will change unimaginably. However, this paper attempts to imagine what may happen demographically in the path toward 2045 Golden Indonesia. Triggered with the COVID-19 pandemic, this digital revolution will bring the second demographic revolution, indicating drastic changes in population mobility patterns, especially on the emergence of voluntary immobility and virtual mobility. People will go nowhere but be everywhere. The next demographic change is the trend toward de-mega-urbanisation; followed by one on fertility—on fertility below replacement level and politics of fertility; mortality-on healthy lifestyle; and family-on super-extended family, re-definition of older people, and "serabutan" job. This paper is closed with a comparison of "population problems" in the 1960s/1970s and population challenges and opportunities toward 2045.

The study summarises what experience we gained from our approach to
teach lessons on the 1956 Revolution and War of Freedom with the help of
video interviews. In 2018, three classes (N=53) and in 2019, two classes
(N=39) took part in a history lesson using video interview excerpts directly
linked to the immediate causes of the revolution and war of freedom. The
lessons were 45-minute long and took place at the time specified in the
syllabus. In the first two lessons, we examined if the teaching objectives
were achieved, and then modified the lesson plans in our research group’s
workshop. In the next year, the lessons following the new lesson plan were
examined in the same way. Data collection took place through questionnaires,
which were administered to the students before and after the lessons they
attended. The present study analyses these data along with the focus group
interviews conducted with the students after the lessons. Our findings
reveal that lessons applying the new methodological approach (historical
thinking and inquiry-based learning) and using video excerpts made it more
effective for students to process the teaching material, understand the
information and deepen their knowledge. Video excerpts have become a useful
tool for research-based education. Realizing the finalized lesson plan
supported group work and allowed for student engagement, providing grounds
for posing questions, discussing dilemmas, and sharing and confronting
opinions, thus contributing to the development of critical
thinking.

Hálózat – A globális gazdaság kvázi szervezete (The business network – the quasi organization of the global economy)
Authors: Gelei Andrea
Published: March 2021

A tanulmány célja, hogy értelmezze a globális gazdaság alapvető fontosságú építőelemét, az üzleti hálózatot, majd megvizsgálja annak felépítését és működésének főbb vezérlőelveit. Először az alapfogalmak – üzleti hálózat, ellátási lánc és ellátási háló – meghatározására és azok felépítésének bemutatására kerül sor. Ezt követően a cikk röviden ismerteti, hogy melyek voltak azok a vállalati gazdálkodás környezetében végbement változások, melyek a gazdaság hálózatosodását elősegítették és ennek kapcsán elvezettek az üzleti hálózatok versenyképességben játszott szerepének erősödéséhez. A szerző ugyanakkor bemutatja a kialakuló új gazdasági modell, az ún. hálózati gazdaság működési modelljének lényeges új tulajdonságait. A tanulmány ezután ismerteti az üzleti hálózat – s ezen belül az ellátási lánc – működtetésében meghatározó koordinációs mechanizmusokban megfigyelhető markáns változásokat. Végül részletesen ismerteti az üzleti hálózat két fő építőelemét: a hálózatot alkotó üzleti egységeknek, illetve a közöttük kialakuló kapcsolatoknak az alapvető típusait. ________ The aim of the paper is to present and interpret the basic building element of global business: the business network, its structure and operation. First basic terms – network, supply chain, supply network – are defined and described, than those changes are introduced that played significant role in increasing their importance. Characteristics of the new network economy are presented; especially changes in the coordination mechanism between cooperating parties in the network are demonstrated. Finally the two building blocks of global business networks: (i) nodes (business units) and (ii) threads (partnerships) are described in details.

Miben rejlik egy szervezeti tudást támogató informatikai projekt sikere? Milyen új eszközök állnak rendelkezésre napjainkban a tudás megragadására és elérhetővé tételére? A 2.0-ás forradalom elérte a tudásmenedzsment- eszközöket is. Korunk nagy szervezeteiben a tanulási képesség vált a tartósan fenntartható versenyelőnyök fő forrásává, így ezzel párhuzamosan a hatékony megvalósításhoz szükséges információtechnológiai megoldások is előtérbe kerültek. Az IT azonban csak közvetetten képes hatni a szervezet versenyképességére, a szervezeti tanulás támogató funkciójaként. A cikk célja a tudásmenedzsment-rendszerek újabb formáinak bemutatása, illetve ezen rendszerek sikertényezőinek vizsgálata.

A tanulmány első része a XXI. század elején a Földön végbemenő ökológiai változásokkal foglalkozik, és arra a megállapításra jut, hogy a gazdasági tevékenységek változtatására és alkalmazkodásra van szükség. A klímaváltozás gyorsulása, a Földünk által küldött vészjelek egyértelművé teszik, hogy a vállalatvezetési filozófiában paradigmaváltoztatásra van szükség. Ez a változás komoly hatással lesz a jövőbeni marketingre is. A tanulmány második része azokat a várható trendeket veszi sorra, amelyek a jövő marketingjét fogják meghatározni. A szerzők azt jósolják, hogy a társadalmi marketing és a társadalmilag felelős marketing komoly előretörése várható mind az elméletben, mind a gyakorlatban. Mindez világszerte felveti a marketingkutatók és a marketinget művelők felelősségét a társadalmilag felelős fogyasztás meghatározásában és népszerűsítésében.
Válaszúton az információs társadalom
Authors: Vas Réka
Published: March 2021

Az elektronikus ügyintézés, a kormányzati és üzleti szolgáltatások együttesen az információs társadalom eléréséhez vezető út eszközei. Ezek megfelelő alkalmazásával hatás gyakorolható az ország versenyképességére, a hazai és nemzetközi elvárásoknak való megfelelésre. A gazdasági növekedés egyik alapfeltétele, hogy az intellektuális tőke megléte mellett biztosított legyen azon eszközök és szolgáltatások köre, amelyek katalizálják a gazdasági folyamatokat azáltal, hogy lehetővé teszik a racionális, hiteles és megbízható működést. Az elektronikus ügyintézés az elektronikus azonosítással kapcsolatos problémák megoldását is megköveteli. Ennek érdekében meg kell vizsgálni a lehetséges megoldások előnyeit és hátrányait, technológiai hátterét, valamint a beruházás és a fenntartás költségeit is.

A Magyar Tudományos Akadémia Ipari és Vállalatgazdasági Bizottsága 2009. október 9-én rendezte harmadik korrupcióellenes konferenciáját. Az előadók, a magyar közélet 14 prominens személyisége, közül ketten a politikai élet ismert szereplői, további ketten a magyar jog és igazságszolgáltatás vezető tisztségviselői voltak. Hatan közvetlenül a korrupció által leginkább sújtott területek elöljáróiként, hárman kutatóként (jeles egyetemi tanárként), s egy kamarai vezető a vállalati szféra képviseletében fejtette ki nézeteit a témáról. Amint ezt dr. Papanek Gábor, a Bizottság és a konferencia elnöke kiemelte, a rendezvény, a sok, olykor egymást kiegészítő, olykor ütköző nézet törekedett világos áttekintést adni a korrupció okairól, hatásairól, valamint az e visszaélés elleni küzdelem aktuális tennivalóiról.
