Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the development of economic and applied tools for the management of construction enterprises within the framework of the formation and implementation of a stakeholder-oriented management strategy to increase their investment attractiveness, which made it possible to substantiate the directions for increasing the effectiveness of the level of stakeholder interaction based on the methodology for assessing the level of stakeholder relations, the results of economic and mathematical modeling and the proposed analytical diagnostic system of local and integral stakeholder indicators. The existing methods of assessing the effect of the introduction of information modeling and integrated implementation of the project in construction were analyzed. A methodology for integral assessment of the level of stakeholder relations of construction enterprises is proposed based on the application of a complex of analytical subsystems: a) a subsystem for evaluating construction projects as potential components of the economic portfolio of a construction enterprise-stakeholder; b) a subsystem for diagnosing the competitiveness of the project customer as the initiator and leading subject of the construction and investment process; c) a subsystem of ensuring compliance of the characteristics of construction development projects with the leading dominants of the operational system productivity of the enterprise-stakeholder construction;; d) a subsystem of economic monitoring of the growth of the value of qualified assets of the developer company and the growth of its image as a leading stakeholder in the market of commercial housing and infrastructure construction. The improvement of the system of indicators for evaluation and selection of projects for the economic portfolio made it possible to build an effective means of formalized management of the performance of the operating system of the construction stakeholder enterprise as part of the toolkit; through the prism of preventive assessment of the productivity of implementation of operational and production cycles of projects (strategic economic units as part of the economic portfolio of a construction stakeholder enterprise).
HYBRID MULTI-AGENT METHOD FOR OPTIMIZATION OF FUZZY COMPUTER SYSTEMS
Authors: Kozlov Oleksiy , Kondratenko Yuriy , Skakodub Oleksandr
Published: October 2022

Recently, intelligent computer systems based on fuzzy logic and soft computing are used quite effectively to solve a wide range of complex applied problems in various fields of human activity. One of the promising areas of modern research in the field of artificial intelligence is the creation and testing of bioinspired multi-agent and evolutionary methods for the synthesis and optimization of fuzzy automatic control systems (ACS) and decision support systems (DSS). This paper is devoted to the development and research of a multi-agent method of parametric optimization of fuzzy systems (FS) based on hybrid improved grey wolf algorithms. The proposed method allows optimizing the parameters of fuzzy computer systems more efficiently, compared to the basic and improved grey wolf methods. This method uses group hunting and dimensional learning-based hunting strategies, as well as local search strategies based on algorithms of gradient descent and extended Kalman filter, which significantly reduces computational costs and increases the rate of convergence to optimal solutions when optimizing parameters of complex fuzzy systems. To study the effectiveness of the developed hybrid multi-agent method in this work, the synthesis and parametric optimization of the fuzzy flight control system for the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is carried out. In particular, the optimization of the vectors of normalizing coefficients, adjustable parameters of linguistic terms (LT), and weight coefficients of the rule's consequences of the rule base (RB) for the altitude controller of the fuzzy ACS for the UAV is performed. The obtained results of the comparative analysis confirm the significant advantages of the developed hybrid multi-agent method of parametric optimization, as well as the feasibility of its application for the synthesis of different types of ACSs and DSSs based on fuzzy logic.
MODERN ECONOMIC AND ORGANIZATIONAL IMPERATIVES OF CONSTRUCTION DEVELOPMENT IN PROJECTS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF STRATEGIC CHANGES IN ENTERPRISES
Authors: Akselrod Roman , Trach Roman
Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the study of modern concepts that influence the cognitive mechanisms of project management in construction. The conducted analysis proved that obtaining a greater effect from the use of the knowledge of the participants in the implementation of the construction project is possible under the condition of the joint implementation of three modern concepts: enterprise integration, information modeling in construction and big data management. In addition to an effectively working communication system within the project, an important condition is the availability of effective knowledge management tools. Knowledge management tools are technologies used to improve and ensure the implementation of knowledge management sub-processes. Information modeling technologies in construction can become an important tool for analyzing big data, generating information and knowledge, because after the completion of each stage of the implementation of a construction project, large data sets remain. Accumulated data can be a corporate asset, the acquisition and use of which allows you to make better forecasts and make the right management decisions. In addition, the knowledge that arose in the project and was tested by practice can be considered more reliable in comparison with data from experiments or simulations, because they contain more fundamental knowledge about reality. The developed methods and models allow: solving the task of choosing the optimal network organizational structure based on the criterion of maximum efficiency in the use of information connections between project participants; carry out an assessment of the effect of the joint introduction of information modeling in construction and the integrated implementation of the construction project; to carry out a comprehensive study and optimization of the information and communication network of the participants in the implementation of the construction project; start the process of introducing information modeling in public procurement in the construction industry of Ukraine. The obtained results can be used by scientific institutions, enterprises and organizations - key participants in the implementation of construction projects, authorities at various levels, and also form the basis for further theoretical, methodological and applied research.
Framing as a Social Movement’s Transnational Strategy
Authors: Tungul Lucie
Published: October 2022

This paper focuses on framing as a social movement’s transnationalstrategy. Applying the cultural approach to framing analysis, it investigateshow the Gülen movement, as a social group with restricted access tonational gatekeepers, uses discourse to internationalise a domestic powerstruggle with a powerful opponent. Moving the struggle to theinternational arena presents a discursive opportunity that determineswhich ideas become visible and legitimate both internationally andnationally. The importance of such internationalization increases in times ofconflict and the media play a vital role in this process. The paper arguesthat the editors of the pro-Gülen movement foreign online platformsestablished after the movement was forced into exile following the failed2016 coup, use strategic framing to tailor their frames for the host contextand culture. That increases the resonance of their frames and the potentialof the discursive opportunity. The article confirms the previous findings thatmedia are a crucial resource for transnational social movements becausepolicymakers are sensitive to public opinion, which is shaped by mediaframes.
Democratic Erosion and Democratic Resilience in Central Europe during COVID-19
Authors: Guasti Petra
Published: October 2022

What are the effects of populists in power on democracy during apandemic? The paper seeks to distinguish the extent to which the COVID-19pandemic can (not) be traced to democratic erosion and democraticresilience. Are the changes in the quality of democracy resulting frompolitical leaders' actions or rather a path-dependent continuation ofprevious trends? This contribution focuses on two paths – democraticerosion and democratic resilience – in the Visegrad Four countries (theCzech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia), which are all governed bypopulist leaders. It builds on previous literature that focused principally onthe first wave of the pandemic by focusing on institutional guardrails andaccountability (vertical, horizontal, and diagonal) during the 18 months ofthe pandemic. It seeks to answer the following question: What conditionsare necessary and sufficient to prevent democratic erosion?
Adrian Robert Bazbauers and Susan Engel: The Global Architecture of Multilateral Development Banks
Authors: Hošman Mirek Tobiáš
Published: October 2022

This book explores the evolution of the 30 functioning multilateraldevelopment banks (MDBs). MDBs have their roots in the growing systemof international finance and multilateral cooperation, with the firstrecognisable MDB being proposed by Latin America in financial cooperationwith the US in the late 1930s. That Inter-American Bank did not eventuatebut was a precursor to the World Bank being negotiated at Bretton Woodsin 1944. Since then, a complex network of regional, sub-regional, andspecialised development banks has progressively emerged across theglobe, including two significant recent entrants established by China andthe BRICS.MDBs arrange loans, credits, and guarantees for investment in memberstates, generally with the stated aim of fostering economic growth. Theyoperate in both the Global North and South, though there are more MDBsfocusing on emerging and developing states. While the World Bank andsome of the larger regional banks have been scrutinised, little attention hasbeen paid to the smaller banks or the overall system. This book providesthe first study of all 30 MDBs and it evaluates their interrelationships. Itanalyses the emergence of the MDBs in relation to geopolitics,development paradigms and debt. It includes sections on each of the banksas well as on how MDBs have approached the key sectors of infrastructure,human development, and climate.This book will be of particular interest to researchers of developmentfinance, global governance, and international political economy.
Trine Villumsen Berling, Ulrik Pram Gad, Karen Lund Petersen and Ole Wæver: Translations of Security
Authors: Rod Zdeněk
Published: October 2022

This book scrutinizes how contemporary practices of security have come torely on many different translations of security, risk, and danger.Institutions of national security policies are currently undergoing radicalconceptual and organisational changes, and this book presents a novelapproach for how to study and politically address the new situation.Complex and uncertain threat environments, such as terrorism, climatechange, and the global financial crisis, have paved the way for new forms ofsecurity governance that have profoundly transformed the ways in whichthreats are handled today. Crucially, there is a decentralisation of themanagement of security, which is increasingly handled by a broad set ofsocietal actors that previously were not considered powerful in the conductof security a!airs. This transformation of security knowledge andmanagement changes the meaning of traditional concepts and practices,and calls for investigation into the many meanings of security implied whencontemporary societies manage radical dangers, risks, and threats. It isnecessary to study both what these meanings are and how they developedfrom the security practices of the past. Addressing this knowledge gap, thebook asks how di!erent ideas about threats, risk, and dangers meet in thecurrent practices of security, broadly understood, and with what politicalconsequences.This book will be of interest to students of critical security studies,anthropology, risk studies, science and technology studies andInternational Relations.

Thevolume covers a diverse set of both well-established and innovativemethods, including discourse analysis, ethnography, narrative, and visualanalysis. Through a hands-on approach, each chapter sheds light onpractical challenges and opportunities, as well as lessons learnt for futureresearch. The volume is an invaluable resource for advanced graduate andpostgraduate students as well as scholars interested in developing theirown empirical research on the role of emotions.
Transhumanismo y libertad procreativa: desafíos jurídicos
Authors: Lafferriere Jorge Nicolás
Published: October 2022

Entre los medios elegidos para el logro de los objetivos transhumanistas (TH) se encuentra el recurso a biotecnologías para incidir en la dotación genética de la descendencia. Ahora bien, el temor a una utilización desmesurada de las biotecnologías no puede significar una negación de los indudables avances para el bien de la vida humana que ellas han traído. Así, desde una perspectiva jurídica, es decisiva la cuestión de determinar los alcances de la libertad procreativa, es decir, cuáles son las opciones legítimas que pueden adoptarse en relación con la transmisión de la vida humana. Esta comunicación se propone analizar este interrogante y enunciar los desafíos jurídicos implicados en esta cuestión. En tal sentido, mientras algunos sostienen una libertad procreativa absoluta y sin límites, otras posturas tienden a anular la libertad procreativa y a obligar a los padres a buscar “el mejor hijo posible” (beneficencia procreativa). Entre esas dos visiones extremas, esta comunicación propone una libertad procreativa respetuosa de la originalidad de la transmisión de la vida y enraizada en una concepción ontológica de la dignidad. Por otra parte, para que esa libertad procreativa realice los bienes propiamente humanos, se enuncian seis tópicos que el derecho debe afrontar para responder a los desafíos del TH en esta dimensión vinculada con la procreación: a) el comienzo de la existencia de la persona; b) la inviolabilidad de la vida humana; c) los límites jurídicos que deben ponerse a las técnicas de procreación artificial y sus finalidades de uso; d) si es admisible o no el uso de gametos de terceros en esas técnicas; e) el problema del diagnóstico preimplantatorio; f) los alcances de la edición genética humana aplicada a la línea germinal y la distinción entre terapia y mejora (enhancement).

IMPROVING THE COMMUNITY'S ABILITY TO ASSESS CHILDREN'S GROWTH AND FULFILLMENT OF FAMILY NUTRITION
Authors: Angraini Dian Isti
Published: October 2022

Monitoring the growth and development of children in the first 1,000 days of life is very important given the rapid growth and development at this age. This very rapid brain development at the age of under 2 years (a critical period of development) is the right time to make recovery, if there are growth disorders and nutritional deficiencies. Increasing the community's ability to assess children's growth and development and fulfillment of family nutrition is very important as an effort to optimize the process of child growth and development as the nation's next generation. The purpose of this programme is to improve the ability of the community (independently) in assessing children's growth and development and fulfilling family nutrition. The methods used in this programme are focus group discussions as the basis for making modules, health promotion with interactive lectures and discussion techniques, and simulations of how to assess toddler growth and development using maternal and child health books (KIA) and family nutrition fulfillment. This programme was carried out for 1 day and took place in Kaliasin Village, Tanjung Bintang District, South Lampung Regency. The participants were 30 people who were members of the community in Kaliasin Village, Tanjung Bintang District, South Lampung Regency. The results of the evaluation found that there was an increase in participants' understanding as much as 90% became a good understanding, 10% of participants had a fairly good understanding, and none of the participants had a poor understanding of how to assess the growth and development of toddlers and the fulfillment of family nutrition. The average pretest result was 50.5 and an increase in the posttest result was 83.5. Based on the analysis using the Wilcoxon test, it was found that there was a statistically significant mean difference between the pretest and posttest scores participants on how to assess toddler growth and family nutrition (p=0.000). Increasing the community's ability to assess children's growth and development and fulfillment of family nutrition with this technique of increasing knowledge and skills has proven to be effective.

Giusta transizione ecologica: l'impatto delle tecnologie digitali
Authors: Verdolini Elena , Belpietro Chiara
Published: October 2022

Il concetto di «just twin transitions», ossia «transizioni gemelle e giuste», è sempre più al cen-tro di discussioni pubbliche e dibattiti politici; esso indica la duplice transizione in campo eco-logico e in campo digitale, e promuove l'idea che gli sforzi per perseguire queste transizioni devono essere accompagnati da misure tese a «non lasciare indietro nessuno». Tuttavia, le im-plicazioni derivanti dalle connessioni, sinergie o incongruenze tra queste due transizioni non sono ancora state oggetto di analisi sistematica. Questo articolo illustra le possibili e verosimili ripercussioni negative (N) o positive (P) delle tecnologie digitali sugli obiettivi della giusta transizione ecologica, ossia (1) l'azione per il clima, (2) la promozione di lavori di qualità e qualificanti e (3) l'identificazione di interventi tesi a ridurre gli impatti sociali negativi della transizione ecologica sulle fasce meno abbienti e più a rischio. Sulla base di questa analisi, vengono discussi i motivi che giustificano un'analisi congiunta della transizione ecologica e di quella digitale.

The second edition of our English-language "Yearbook", which we present here, consolidates the project launched over a year ago by the journal Italia contemporanea with the support of the Istituto Nazionale Ferruccio Parri and the publisher FrancoAngeli. With this new edition, the journal renews the practice of translating into English a selection of research articles and shorter discussion articles that the journal has published, in Italian, in the previous year. This initiative continues to represent a valuable form of transnational dissemination of the research and the historiographical and methodological debates that usually appear in the pages of Italia contemporanea. Indeed, the journal hopes to continue to make an innovative contribution to the project of making Italian historiography more competitive by overcoming the scarce global knowledge of its language and encouraging intellectual exchange with scholars of Italian history based abroad
About Fiume
Authors: Civile Giuseppe
Published: October 2022

This article analyses a selection of recent studies about the political life of Fiume between 1919 and 1920, most of which were published on the occasion of the centenary of Gabriele D'Annunzio's march on the city. The examined texts offer a re-reading of different themes: the city's pre-war history, the role of the army, the city's relation with post-war Italy and Fascism, the interpretation of new theories and political practices, and D'Annunzio's influence on individual and collective actors. Taken together, these recent studies demonstrate that the debate on Fiume is still alive and open to new interpretations, in terms of both specific themes and more general interpretations.
The factory between economy, society and politics. The controversial history of the Taranto steelworks
Authors: Doria Marco
Published: October 2022

The Taranto steelworks has held and continues to hold an important place in the history of Italian industrialisation. Consequently, it has been the object of numerous studies. This article examines a selection of recent publications on the Taranto steelworks and, more broadly, on the history of Italian state-owned companies and the IRI (Industrial Reconstruction Institute). The purpose is to reflect on the role of the steel industry in the Italian economy, on stateowned enterprises and their relationship with politics and on the policies pursued after the Second World War in order to reduce the gap between the North and the South. Finally, the article will discuss public debates on these topics. In doing so, it places the various decisions and the different positions on the issue in a historical context. In conclusion, the article identifies a number of questions that have yet to receive an appropriate answer.

Theodore Hesburgh e l'Istituto ecumenico di Tantur (1963-1978). Un contributo al cammino ecumenico
Authors: Guasco Alberto
Published: October 2022

L'inaugurazione ufficiale del Tantur Ecumenical Institute for Advanced Theological Studies di Gerusalemme (1972) è stata il coronamento del "sogno ecumenico" di Paolo VI, concepito dal pontefice nel corso del Concilio Vaticano II e del suo pellegrinaggio in Terra Santa del 1964, e realizzato tra gli anni Sessanta e Settanta grazie al contributo degli uomini e delle istituzioni più attive nel campo dell'ecumenismo. Tra loro, un ruolo decisivo ha giocato padre Theodore Hesburgh (1917-2014), presidente della Notre Dame University, messo a capo del progetto-Tantur da parte dello stesso Paolo VI. Grazie all'utilizzo di materiali d'archivio completamente inediti, il presente articolo intende ricostruire il ruolo di "manager", di "politician" e di "fundraiser" giocato da Hesburgh durante il tormentato cammino di nascita dell'Istituto gerosolimitano.
Gino Germani, Renzo De Felice e le interpretazioni del fascismo a partire dagli anni Sessanta
Authors: Aramini Donatello
Published: October 2022

Renzo De Felice e Gino Germani sono stati due protagonisti assoluti del dibatti-to sulle interpretazioni del fascismo. A 100 anni dalla marcia su Roma e con il termine fascismo tornato al centro del dibattito mediatico e della polemica politi-ca, l'articolo riflette sul contributo fornito dai due studiosi, ripercorrendo anche al-cuni momenti chiave del loro intenso rapporto di collaborazione scientifica. L'autore inserisce la loro opera all'interno dell'ampio dibattito internazionale emerso dagli anni Sessanta sulle caratteristiche e i confini del fascismo generico. Egli così evidenzia non solo come De Felice e Germani abbiano dialogato con la storiografia internazionale sul fascismo ma come quest'ultima abbia in gran parte confermato spunti, suggestioni e impostazioni presenti nei loro lavori. Negli ultimi anni, tuttavia, queste le conclusioni dell'autore, è emersa una nuova tendenza sto-riografica, influenzata dalla teoria postcoloniale e dagli studi transnazionali, che di fatto si allontana dalle interpretazioni fornite a partire dagli anni Sessanta e tende nuovamente a sfumare i contorni del fenomeno.
I giovani e il fascismo nelle opere di Gino Germani e di Renzo De Felice: interrelazioni, consonanze, divergenze
Authors: La Rovere Luca
Published: October 2022

L'articolo esamina la questione dei giovani nelle opere del sociologo Gino Germani e dello storico Renzo De Felice. Entrambi gli studiosi hanno individuato per primi, nei rispettivi campi di indagine, la centralità del tema per comprendere il processo di selezione e di formazione delle classi dirigenti nei regimi autorita-ri/totalitari e formulare ipotesi circa la loro capacità di durare nel tempo. Nella prima parte viene descritta l'interpretazione elaborata da Germani della socializ-zazione dei giovani nei regimi fascisti, dalla sua origine risalente alla giovanile mili-tanza antifascista ai successivi sviluppi in prospettiva propriamente sociologica. Successivamente si tenta di ricostruire, soprattutto attraverso l'analisi dei testi dei due autori, l'influenza esercitata dall'impostazione del problema dei giovani da parte del sociologo sull'opera di De Felice. Infine, viene seguita l'evoluzione dell'analisi di De Felice della questione nel corso degli anni, mettendo in evidenza la capacità dello storico di rivedere e di mettere a punto lo schema del rapporto giovani-fascismo delineato dallo studioso italo-argentino, anche grazie alle nuove evidenze scientifiche e alle nuove fonti, ma anche la permanenza di alcuni limiti interpretativi e contraddizioni analitiche.

I signori della collina. I Fieschi a Genova nel XIV secolo: strategie cittadine di una famiglia aristocratica
Authors: Lombardo Simone
Published: October 2022

I Fieschi erano una famiglia aristocratica di estrazione rurale, che traeva l'origine della propria potenza dai possedimenti nel contado e si era insediata a Genova seguendo strategie più o meno coscienti, analizzate nell'articolo per quanto riguarda il trecento. Ciò era avvenuto innanzitutto con l'avvio di un insediamento monumentale presso la collina di Carignano, al di fuori delle mura ma al contempo in stretto rapporto con il centro abitato che sovrastava, quasi come polo urbanistico alternativo. Durante il XIV secolo si può notare una progressiva differenziazione tra una dimensione armata della famiglia, guida della fazione guelfa, e una prettamente ecclesiastica, custode dei patrimoni dinastici cittadini. Partendo dalla constatazione di queste caratteristiche, il saggio tenta di rapportarle e metterle in relazione dialettica con gli altri alberghi cittadini, al fine di evidenziare un modello alternativo di gestione familiare attuato dai Fieschi. È indagata l'importanza della parentela, le modalità di ingresso nel gruppo, le esenzioni fiscali e le politiche matrimoniali, al fine di delineare la mentalità di una famiglia aristocratica signorile inserita in un centro a vocazione mercantile.
Dalla sorveglianza alla vigilanza: a proposito di "culture della vigilanza" di Arndt Brendecke e Paola Molino. Introduzione
Authors: Buono Alessandro
Published: October 2022

Il saggio introduce un dossier scritto assieme a Teresa Bernardi, Umberto Signori e Stefano Poggi, che si propone di mettere alla prova la proposta storiografica di Arndt Brendecke e Paola Molino sulle "Culture della Vigilanza". Attraverso l'analisi di tre casi studio (il controllo dei matrimoni nella città di Venezia tra cinque e seicento, l'analisi della produzione delle informazioni dei consoli veneziani a Smirne tra sei e settecento, la riorganizzazione del controllo del territorio nella città di Vicenza in età napoleonica) gli autori del dossier indagano, ognuno nel proprio contesto, l'utilità di passare dal paradigma della sorveglianza all'analisi delle concrete pratiche e culture della vigilanza. Questo saggio introduttivo cerca di tracciare un percorso comune tra i tre interventi, mettendo in luce alcune questioni metodologiche e nodi tematici, e dialogando più in generale con i recenti studi dedicati alla delazione e alla comunicazione tra governanti e governati. In particolare, si sostiene la tesi che per meglio comprendere quale sia la specifica "cultura della vigilanza" di antico regime, sia necessario metterla in connessione con la sua peculiare "cultura del possesso", ovvero l'idea che il potere e la giurisdizione, come qualunque altro diritto, siano definiti nei termini della possessio e dell'effettivo esercizio, piuttosto che in quelli del dominium.
Control of marriage and (im)mobility in Venice (16th-­17th centuries) in dialogue with Cultures of Vigilance
Authors: Bernardi Teresa
Published: October 2022

This paper analyses the interactions between the control of marriage and human mobility in early modern Venice. It examines the role that ordinary people and local communities played in controlling migrants' mobility and marital unions. In particular, it shows the ways in which the religious authorities attempted to collect information about mobile actors in order to prevent the crime of bigamy. The research focuses particularly on the intermediaries and the networks through which oral testimonies and certificates were conveyed, both locally and trans-locally. To do so, the author uses a specific archival source, the so-called processetti matrimoniali: namely, pre-matrimonial enquiries aimed at attesting the marital status of foreigners, widows and widowers, and other mobile actors (i.e., merchants, sailors, and pilgrims) who wanted to get married in Venice. It is in this regard that the Venetian urban context will be analysed as a case study for discussing the historical perspectives of two recent books: The History and Cultures of Vigilance. Historicizing the Role of Private Attention in Society, edited by A. Brendecke and P. Molino; and Riferire all'autorità. Denuncia e delazione tra Medioevo ed Età moderna, edited by M.G. Muzzarelli. Using the perspective of the "cultures of vigilance", instead of the surveillance approach, will help to counter the idea that the control of marriage was simply a top-down process, or a centralized disciplinary action. It will reveal that local and trans-local communities were important means of control, able to influence the effectiveness of administrative and government practices.
Surveillance as a culture of vigilance: the case of Napoleonic Italy
Authors: Poggi Stefano
Published: October 2022

This article aims to verify the concept of "culture of vigilance" recently proposed by Arndt Brendecke and Paola Molino in Napoleonic Italy, a context traditionally interpreted in the light of surveillance paradigms. What emerges from the case study of the "capi contrada" established in Vicenza in 1806 is that the Napoleonic police were ultimately compelled to resort to requesting help from individuals belonging to the local communities they wanted to monitor. The "capi contrada" soon became one of the primary sources of information for urban law enforcement. Nevertheless, this collaboration remained strictly tied to the self-interest of the "capi". This kind of "inter-hierarchical"position was not limited to Vicenza, as analogous positions existed in several other cities of the Kingdom of Italy. Thanks to this case study, it is possible to recast the development of state-driven surveillance as one of the many cultures of vigilance that coexisted in Italy at the beginning of the nineteenth century.
The Use and Translation of Chinese Passive Voice into English: A Case Study based on ‘To live’ by Yu Hua (1993) and its English translation
Authors: Zhao Bei
Published: October 2022

This research aims to comparatively analyze how Mandarin Chinese passive constructions are translated into English based on a pair of books, which are Yu Hua’s To live and its corresponding English translation by Michael Berry. A mixed qualitative and quantitative method is used in the current research. Results show that the Mandarin passive voice can be translated both into the English passive voice and the English active voice according to the varied meanings of contexts (positive, negative, and neutral), while the former is the overwhelming majority. The most frequently used Mandarin BÈI-construction can be generally regarded as an equivalence of the English BE-construction. It has also been found that the frequency of using passives to express negative issues is very high in Mandarin, and the use of the type of Mandarin passives relates to the meaning of contexts.
The Impact of Economic Crises on the Performance of Non-Financial Corporations in the Czech Republic
Authors: Hronova Stanislava , Hindls Richard
Published: October 2022

Since the 1990s, the Czech economy has faced four crises. Each of them had different causes, duration and consequences for the non-financial corporate sector. The first crisis (1997-1998) had internal causes and severely affected non-financial firms. In contrast, the second crisis (2009) had external economic causes and non-financial corporations emerged with a positive economic outcome. As a result of extremely rigorous economic policies and net borrowing by non- financial firms, the Czech economy experienced a crisis in 2012 and 2013. The COVID- 19 pandemic was the external, not economic cause of the fourth crisis (2020-2021) that brought about a successful outcome for non-financial corporations. The aim of this analysis is to answer the question of what causes these divergent economic results and why the external impulses of the crisis led to a reversal of the traditionally negative economic balance. The results showed that the levels of indebtedness and profitability conceal the main differences in conditions. The analysis is based on data from the Czech National Accounts and uses relative indicators to describe the economic behaviour of non-financial corporations constructed in such a way that their explanatory power is closer to the conditions for assessing economic performance in corporate practice.
Basic features and characteristics of behavioral and experimental economy formation
Authors: Demkura Taras , Markovych Iryna
Published: October 2022

The preconditions for the emergence of behavioral economics are examined in the article, the relationship between behavioral and experimental economics are outlined and the features of the economic entities behavior irrationality are identified. The irrationality of human behavior from the standpoint of modern researchers and assumptions about the possibility of predicting such irrationality in economic models are analyzed. The peculiarities of conducting experiments are highlighted and their significance for research in behavioral economics is proved. It is shown that economic theories, which are based on a methodological approach to understanding human behavior as absolutely rational, formalization of scenarios of its behavior have long failed to withstand scientific criticism and do not have enough convincing empirical evidence. The differences between the research tools in behavioral and experimental economics are determined. The difference between "economy" and "humane" is shown. Economic people must make their decisions based on logic and mathematics, and humane people are characterized by volatility of decisions due to the tendency to framing and other cognitive biases. It is shown that the "economy" has the following features: a priority desire to meet their own needs and the development of personal interest; natural desire to improve their own economic situation; leveling of psychological, ethical and spiritual values in order to achieve economic goals; full awareness of the phenomena and trends of economic processes; rational economic behavior, etc. It has been determined that the subjects of economic relations are guided not by absolute rationality, but often by emotional or instinctive impulses, which are often inconsistent with the logical mechanism of decision-making from the point of view of efficiency. A promising area of further research is the analysis of cognitive biases, psychophysiological patterns, social norms and their impact on decision-making processes in the economy.
