Authors: Ribeiro Iramara Lima , Menezes Irislândia Lima Ribeiro , Santa Rosa José Guilherme da Silva , Costa Iris do Céu Clara
Published: December 2020

Objetivo Avaliar a percepção de escolares entre 7 a 10 anos de uma escola pública de Natal-RN sobre alimentação saudável.Método Estudo descritivo com abordagem quantitativa e qualitativa, mediante entrevista de grupo focal com 29 escolares com média de 8,8 anos de idade. A análise foi auxiliada pelo software IRAMUTEQ e apoiada no conceito de percepção de Merleau-Ponty.Resultados A percepção das crianças sobre alimentação saudável esteve associada aos alimentos in natura e preparações culinárias, identificando-se conceitos adquiridos na escola sobre o tema, além de professores criticando o consumo de alimentos ultraprocessados. Houve relatos de predileção por determinadas merendas da escolae rejeição de outras. As crianças citaram a presença de alimentos não saudáveis na merenda. Quanto ao papel da familia foram citados pais orientando para o consumo saudável ao mesmo tempo em que estimulavam o consumo de alimentos industrializados em casa ou forneciam dinheiro para que os escolares os comprassem. Muitas crianças não consumiam alimentos saudáveis, sobretudo frutas e verduras por considerarem de sabor desagradável.Conclusão A percepção das crianças sobre alimentos saudáveis foi influenciada pela escola, família e mídia. Embora elas possuíssem noção do que seria uma alimentação saudável, o prazer conferido por alimentos industrializados conduzia a práticas não saudáveis. Os achados evidenciam a necessidade de um olhar ampliado pelos profissionais envolvidos nesse papel de estimular e direcionar para práticas saudáveis.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo Descrever o perfil sociodemográfico e analisar o desempenho ocupacional de usuários de um serviço especializado em reabilitação, de acordo com o modelo da Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde (CIF). Materiais e Métodos Estudo documental e exploratório, com análise dos prontuários de 97 pacientes atendidos entre 2013 a 2015, avaliados pela Medida Canadense de Desempenho Ocupacional (COPM). Resultados A idade variou de 14 e 83 anos (média de 48,4 anos); sendo a maioria mulheres (57,7%), casados (43,3%) e aposentados (39,2%). A maioria tinha menos de oito anos de estudo (42,3%); 80,4% eram sedentários; 12,4% tabagistas e 19,6% consumiam bebida alcoólica regularmente. Síndrome do manguito rotador, acidente vascular encefálico e fraturas de membro superior foram os diagnósticos mais frequentes. A média do desempenho foi 4,28 pontos (DP=1,84) e da satisfação com o desempenho foi 4,43 pontos (DP=2,41). Verificou-se dificuldades em atividades de autocuidado; mobilidade funcional; atividades produtivas e atividades de lazer e recreação. Em relação aos componentes da CIF, o domínio Mobilidade obteve maior número de categorias citadas pelos usuários, enquanto que o domínio Cuidado Pessoal obtive o maior número de queixas. Conclusão O desempenho ocupacional dos pacientes apresentou mais limitações em atividades de autocuidado e produtivas. A aplicação da CIF para classificar as atividades identificou demandas específicas em cinco domínios, sendo mobilidade e cuidado pessoal os mais frequentes. Estes resultados permitem direcionar as ações de saúde às reais necessidades dos pacientes e estruturar a prática profissional.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo Mostrar las principales afecciones en salud sexual y reproductiva en mujeres víctimas del conflicto y posconflicto armado.Metodología Se hizo una revisión sistemática exploratoria de la literatura nacional e internacional, en idiomas inglés, español y portugués, entre los años 2000 al 2019, en PubMED, EMBASE, Google Scholar, LILACS, IBECS, SciELO; y consulta a informantes clave.Resultados Se encontró en el ámbito internacional que la principal afectación identificada se refirió a violencia sexual. Se encontraron factores de riesgo que la perpetúan, como el entorno familiar, acceso a educación, pobre infraestructura de servicios de salud entre otros. Otras afectaciones importantes derivaron en un aumento en la tasa de embarazos y matrimonios. En Colombia el panorama fue similar: las zonas con mayor afección por conflicto tienen más tasa de fecundidad, pobre acceso a atención obstétrica y pobre conocimiento de las ITS.Conclusión Se debe asegurar el acceso a servicios de salud sexual en el conflicto para prevención de enfermedades y asegurar el derecho a la salud sexual y reproductiva.
Del "querido amigo" al "partido antigubernativo": la política imperial y la detención de clientes virreinales en la Nueva España, 1746-1768
Authors: Rosenmüller Christoph
Published: December 2020

En este artículo, reinterpreto el carácter del grupo novohispano que el virrey Carlos Francisco de Croix, marqués de Croix (1766-1771), deportó de Nueva España por oponerse a la expulsión de los jesuitas en 1767. Por lo menos la mitad de los acusados habían entablado una alianza con el virrey primer conde de Revillagigedo (1746-1755), quien utilizó su influencia para colocarlos en plazas importantes. Este grupo incluía al canónigo de la Catedral de México, Ignacio Felipe Cevallos Villagutierre (1710-1784), el más estrecho colaborador del virrey en asuntos hacendísticos. Cevallos también asistió al virrey en tejer lazos sociales con varios mercaderes que le ayudaron en quitar la administración de la alcabala al consulado de comerciantes de México, aunque esos mercaderes no sufrieron castigos durante el conflicto por los jesuitas. Mientras que los historiadores han argumentado que Croix acusó a los miembros de un "partido antigubernativo", muestro que varios de ellos habían sido originalmente pro-gobierno al alinearse con las medidas de Revillagigedo. En este sentido también concuerdo con los historiadores que han señalado que la famosa visita general de José de Gálvez (1765-1771) no se enfrentó exclusivamente a criollos y nativos, e intento demostrar que también chocó con una red de antiguos partidarios virreinales de procedencia regional diversa.
De caja real a hacienda provincial. Cambios y continuidades en la jurisdicción fiscal de Santa Fe (Río de la Plata) entre 1805 y 1815
Authors: Galarza Antonio
Published: December 2020

En la presente investigación se realiza una reconstrucción de la estructura tributaria de Santa Fe entre fines de la colonia y los primeros años independientes, procurando identificar cambios y continuidades en el funcionamiento de la fiscalidad regional. Se examina la evolución de los ingresos y egresos, identificando los cambios en las recaudaciones de los principales gravámenes y atendiendo a las modificaciones sufridas por las erogaciones más relevantes, clasificadas según su destino (militares, frontera, administración). Se brinda especial atención a la presión fiscal ejercida por la tesorería regional y las relaciones establecidas entre ésta y otras jurisdicciones fiscales, como la municipal (Cabildo de la ciudad de Santa Fe) y la administración central de hacienda de Buenos Aires, antes y después de 1810. Las fuentes utilizadas para la reconstrucción de las cuentas correspondientes a recaudaciones y gastos son los libros mayores y manuales de contaduría.
Introducción: Los imperios ibéricos. Cambios, negociaciones desiguales y autoridad
Authors: Rosenmüller Christoph
Published: December 2020

El concepto del imperio ha sido objeto de gran interés en fechas recientes. Algunos historiadores y historiadoras enfatizan la naturaleza cambiante de los imperios ibéricos, mientras que otros llaman la atención sobre sus estructuras omnipresentes y duraderas. Los artículos de este dosier argumentan desde distintas perspectivas que la Corona poco a poco consiguió cambios a su favor, aunque fuera en aspectos limitados. La Corona negoció con grupos o corporaciones locales y apremió a vasallos leales, pero también amenazó y castigó a los opositores recalcitrantes. Según los textos de este dosier, ese proceso estaba ocurriendo a finales del siglo XVI, es decir, antes que las conocidas reformas del siglo XVIII. El dosier reúne contribuciones de especialistas de México, Colombia, Chile, Portugal y EE. UU. para ofrecer una nueva mirada a los desafíos del imperio.
Auditive "deep dives"
Authors: Schlütz Daniela
Published: December 2020

Mit dem Begriff ‚narrativer Journalismus‘ bezeichnet man non-fiktionale Textsorten, die sich erzählender Elemente bedienen, um Informationen zu vermitteln. Häufig werden immersive Erzählstrategien, Personalisierung und eine subjektive Perspektive genutzt, um gründlich recherchierte Hintergrundgeschichten aufzubereiten. Das Ziel narrativen Journalismus‘ besteht darin, das Verständnis der Texte zu erleichtern, das Publikum zu involvieren und damit die Wirkung der Texte zu optimieren. Kritisch bewertet wird an dieser journalistischen Darstellungsform die teilweise unklare Abgrenzung zwischen Fakten und Fiktion. Diese Form der Informationsaufbereitung erfreut sich großer Beliebtheit in Podcasts. Aufgrund ihrer spezifischen Charakteristika sind Podcasts ideal für narrativen Journalismus geeignet. Der Beitrag führt diese Aspekte aus und illustriert sie anhand von Beispielen aus dem US-amerikanischen Raum.
Zwischen Unterhaltung und Interaktion
Authors: Wiethe Lotta , Rudeloff Christian , Tellkampf Urs
Published: December 2020

Mit Blick auf die gestiegene Relevanz von Podcasts ist es überraschend, dass die wissenschaftliche Literatur eher überschaubar ist. Insbesondere wurde bislang kaum betrachtet, aus welchen Motiven Podcasts rezipiert werden. Auf theoretischer Grundlage des Uses-and-Gratifications-Ansatzes (UGA) soll sich daher den Nutzungsmotiven angenähert werden. Mithilfe einer Online Befragung (n=121) wurden insgesamt sieben Nutzungsmotive untersucht. Dabei konnten die Motive Unterhaltung und Wissen als sehr wichtig bestätigt werden. Als neue Erkenntnisse stellten sich die Motive Interaktion und Owness heraus. Eskapismus, Gewohnheit und parasoziale Beziehungen spielen eine eher untergeordnete Rolle bei den Nutzungsmotiven. Die Ergebnisse helfen, den Erfolg von Podcasts besser zu verstehen.
Authentisches Lehrmaterial
Authors: Walter Daniela
Published: December 2020

Der Podcast ist ein Medium aus dem Alltag, das den Sprachenunterricht positiv unterstützt. Authentisches Audiomaterial, das mit der Lebenswelt der Lernenden verknüpft ist, fehlt auf dem Lehrwerksmarkt. Das zeigt sich in einer exemplarischen Lehrwerksanalyse. Im Folgenden wird aufgezeigt, wie ein eigener Podcast konzipiert wurde, um Deutschlernenden als kursbegleitendes Material zu dienen. In einer Prästudie wurde er mithilfe eines Fragebogens an vier Teilnehmenden mit Erstsprache Spanisch getestet. Die Studienergebnisse zeigen, dass die Sprechweise der Sprechenden, bildhafte Sprache und Hintergrundgeräusche Einfluss auf den Verstehensprozess nehmen, dialektale Färbung jedoch kaum. Es ist zu erkennen, dass Lernende authentisches Material bevorzugen und akzeptieren, dass sie nicht jedes Detail verstehen. Die Ergebnisse lassen auf eine erfolgreiche Arbeit mit Podcasts im Selbststudium schließen. Jedoch wären umfangreichere Studien nötig, um tatsächliche Erfolge zu messen.
Studies on the molecular biological peculiarities of bovine herpesvirus 4
Authors: Peshev R.
Published: December 2020

Studies on the molecular biological features of bovine herpesvirus 4 (BHV 4) strains isolated in Bulgaria have been conducted. Two types of polymerase chain reaction have been developed and applied to confirm the gB and TK genes. A restrictase fragment analysis was performed using various types of restrictase enzymes. The tested Bulgarian strains differed in their restrictase genomic profile from the reference European strain Movar 33/63 and from the American strain DN 599, and were clearly different each from the other. No clear relationship has been established between the restrictase enzyme profiles and the tropism of the isolated viruses. Sequencing of isolated ВHV 4 strains showed homo­logy with the reference European strain Movar 33/63. After construction of the phylogenetic tree, three ВHV 4 strains were at one branch of the phylogenetic tree, while two other strains were at the branch of reference Movar 33/63 strain. Applied molecular biology methods can be successfully used for differentiation and detailed genetic characterisation of the isolated BHV 4 strains.

Published: December 2020

Soil-associated invertebrates which are coprophagic are capable of acting as paratenic hosts for Toxocara species larvae eggs. The aim of the present study was to assess the role of Lumbricus terrestris earthworms as potential intermediate host for Toxocara species. A total of 240 earthworms were collected from the public places in four areas of Karaj, Alborz Province, Iran. The subjects of the study were digested to detect Toxocara species using microscopy and molecular analyses. Toxocara larvae and larval eggs were recovered from 1.7% (4/240) of the sampled earthworms. The recovery rate in Shah'Abbasi and Talaghani regions in the studied areas was higher than that of the other regions. In the mentioned area, 8.3% (4/48) of earthworms were revealed to be positive for Toxocara species by microscopic observation and only one was confirmed to be positive for Toxocara canis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This is the first molecular report of Toxocara canis infective larvae in Lumbricus terrestris earthworms that could be demonstrated in common environment.

Authors:   Shupyk National Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, Kуiv, Ukraine, Halushko O.
Published: December 2020

The objective: to study the origin and characteristics of the flow of electrolyte abnormalities in patients with acute stroke (OR) on a background of concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM) and the possibility of their correction. Patients and methods. Electrolyte disturbances that occur in patients with acute stroke (AS) is one of the reasons complications of AS. Concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM) affects the severity of stroke and increased mortality rates. Analysis of 416 patients with the treatment of AS was conducted. All patients were divided into three groups: 1) patients with established diabetes before the stroke, 2) patients with newly diagnosed diabetes and 3) patients without diabetes. The second phase was conducted a pilot study with an analysis of the frequency of magnesium and phosphate metabolic disorders in the patients with AS (20 patients with AS on a background of diabetes and 10 stroke patients without diabetes). Results. In general, the different types of electrolyte disorders were observed in 73.9% patients with AS, while in patients with underlying disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, these violations occurred significantly more often than patients without such. In particular, carbohydrate metabolism occurred in 82 (81.2%) and 36 (83.7%) patients 1 and 2 groups versus 134 (65.4%) in the control group (p<0.05). Hypomagnesemia (less than 0.8 mmol/L) was observed in 2 of 10 patients (20%) in AS without carbohydrate disturbances and in 6 of 20 patients (30%) in AS with concomitant diabetes. Hypophosphatemia (phosphate levels less than 0,8 mmol/L) was found in patients without diabetes and AS in 2 patients with concomitant DM or newly diagnosed diabetes. Following the correction of oral medication containing phosphates and magnesium blood electrolyte levels was stabilized and that coincided with the improvement of the patients and the degree of disability. Conclusion: Electrolyte disorders are fairly common problem in patients with concomitant diabetes and AS. In patients with impaired carbohydrate metabolism observed significantly higher frequency (more than 81,2% of patients) occurrence of electrolyte disorders than patients without them. Conclusion. In the case of AS on a background of diabetes electrolyte disturbances occur significantly more frequently than in patients without such comorbid disorders. Key words: stroke, electrolytes, sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, phosphate.

Estructura sintáctica del microdiscurso y traducción
Authors: Gutiérrez-Ordóñez Salvador
Published: December 2020

Los microdiscursos son bloques de texto que poseen unidad de sentido. Una nueva hipótesis sostiene que los microdiscursos poseen asimismo unidad sintáctica. La estructura sintáctica de los microdiscursos está formada por enunciados pragmáticos que contraen funciones y se combinan mediante relaciones. Este trabajo intenta comprobar si la estructura sintáctica de los microdiscursos se mantiene en sus traducciones. Un resultado positivo sería la confirmación empírica de que la hipótesis es verdadera. El análisis compara la estructura sintáctica de diferentes microtextos traducidos (exposición, enumeración, conversaciones, etc.) y demuestra que su estructura sintagmática se mantiene prácticamente invariable en las traducciones. Esto confirma la hipótesis inicial.

Knowledge spillovers and innovation: analysis of the relationships between service centres and MSMEs from the regional perspective
Authors:   mgr, Department of Organisation and Management, Institute of Management, University of Szczecin, Poland, Klimek Jordan , Łobacz Katarzyna ,   dr, Department of Business Management, Institute of Management, University of Szczecin, Poland
Published: December 2020

The innovativeness of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) is dependent on accessibility to appropriate knowledge resources that enable creation of new market offers. Due to inherent limitations related to the possibilities of investing in the acquisition or creation of new knowledge, smaller entities may benefit from the proximity of large companies, especially multinational corporations, which are actively involved in new knowledge creation, and this knowledge has the ability to spill over. The flow of knowledge from service centres to local smaller companies has the potential to stimulate innovativeness in regional service functions, creating opportunities for paper is to analyse the impact of the flow of knowledge from service centres to MSMEs as a result of interactions between them. For this purpose, empirical data from quantitative research carried out by the research team in 2016 on a representative sample of 1,100 micro small and medium-sized enterprises in the Zachodniopomorskie (West Pomerania) voivodeship were used. The analysis shows that service centres can have a positive impact on the innovativeness of companies in the regions in which they are located, provided that there is a flow of knowledge as a result of direct transfer or personal interactions.
The “Family 500+” programme versus the economic activity of women in Poland
Authors:   mgr, University of Warsaw, PhD student, Poland, Krajewski Krzysztof , Zalega Tomasz ,   dr hab., prof. UW, University of Warsaw, Poland
Published: December 2020

The “Family 500+” programme was introduced by the Act on State Aid for Child Support. It differs from many other public programmes in that it has deeply penetrated the general awareness of Poles, which may result from the amount of the benefit, its simplicity, media coverage and the feeling that this policy directly affects people’s lives. There are comments about the impact of the programme on the condition of the labour market. It is believed that to some extent it discourages some women from taking up work, thereby potentially causing their economic activity to decline and unemployment to increase over the longer time frame. Undoubtedly, “Family 500+” is already a very large challenge for the state budget. It is highly probable that the huge funding needed to cover benefits will grow each year, constituting an important government transfer. The goal of the paper is to depict the relationship between “Family 500+” and the economic activity of women in Poland. This study is a research exercise. Quantitative methods were used, including: logistic regression modelling and Holt forecasting. The analysis suggests the conclusion that “Family 500+” has contributed to the reduction of extreme poverty in households with children but also has affected the economic activity of women in Poland, in particular younger ones, aged 25–34 years, who have low educational attainments and live in poorer voivodships. The analysis of micro data from the Human Capital Balance study has clearly confirmed that “Family 500+” negatively affects the likelihood of being economically active, which holds true not only for women at a certain age or of a certain background, but for all those surveyed.
A new institutional orientation of the development of science, knowledge and human capital in Poland versus integrated development
Authors:   prof. dr hab., Division of Research on Social Inequalities and Economic Development, University of Rzeszów, Poland, Woźniak, Michał Gabriel
Published: December 2020

The author of the paper demonstrates that in order to overcome contemporary developmental threats, it is necessary to shift towards a new model of the knowledge-based economy. The features of this model are compared with both the American model of the innovation-driven economy and the European model of the knowledge-based economy. Against this specific background, the drawbacks are presented of reforms carried out in the knowledge sector in Poland since 1990. The focus is placed on an analysis of the reforms in science and higher education implemented in Poland since late 2018. Despite the fact that it was based on recommendations of the new public management system, the author considers not only the strengths but also the weaknesses of the approach, and the fact that the latter may prove to be an obstacle in the modernisation of human capital, which is to effectively harmonise development goals in all spheres of human existence and activity. The author calls for the following solutions to limit the drawbacks referred to above: inviting an observer to the University Council in an advisory capacity, launching a path of individual-oriented interdisciplinary research grants, introducing a reliable process for the university and its organisational units to account for the actual implementation of previously declared programmes of scientific development, student teaching and transference of own achievements, mandating and standardisation of student appraisals in teaching programmes, development of a criterion matrix as a reference for promotions related to teaching achievements, enhancing the status of awards for teaching excellence, with obligatory and permanent monitoring of management procedures at universities in order to reduce bureaucracy.

The agricultural countries of sub-Saharan Africa remain the least economically advanced region of the world, with the relatively lowest quality of life. The agricultural sector plays a particularly important role in the economies of these countries. However, it is underdeveloped as a result of factors such as inadequate agricultural policy, institutional instability, chronic droughts, epidemics, deterioration of the environment, deteriorating infrastructure and insufficient investment in agricultural research in sub-Saharan Africa. The aim of the paper is to examine the impact of political stabilization on the economic growth in these countries. We were also inclined to determine what the interdependences were between political stability and factors important for agricultural activity for both agricultural and non-agricultural sub-Saharan counties in the 1995–2017 period. The methods used in this research included panel models with fixed effects, non-parametric tests and quantile regression. It was found that stabilizing the political situation and lowering the level of conflict risk contributed to the growth of GDP per capita in both agricultural and non-agricultural countries. However, in agricultural countries, it also influenced the modernization of agricultural production methods and a shift in the proportion of agricultural production in the total volume of imports and exports. Furthermore, it was found that political stability contributed to a greater extent to the improvement of GDP per capita in the lowest income countries.
Population instability and EU-production function anomaly
Authors:   dr, School of International Liberal Arts, Miyazaki International College, Japan, Młodkowski Paweł
Published: December 2020

The purpose of the study is to present the problematic situation when capturing the economic growth mechanism in the European Union. Due to intra-EU migration, the prominent production function framework fails to deliver consistent results. Estimation of structural parameters on data covering the post-accession period up to 2016 delivered a negative (!) assessment of the contribution of “labour” to output for most of the new member states. This result called for further investigations, and a holistic interpretation. It seems that this is the first time a methodological study on the production function framework offers an explicit formulation of the requirements for this method to be effectively employed in output investigations. In short, the production function can be used for cases where the growth mode is extensive, while arguments display declining or ascending trends. However, when the growth mode is intensive, while any of the arguments decline in value, this particular framework will become invalid for capturing the growth mechanism. The observed failure of the production function calls for introducing a new term to the economic growth literature: EU-production-function-anomaly. The method seems to be a far-reaching simplification. The reason for utilizing a very general formulation (excluding human capital and technology) is motivated by the focus on the demographic developments responsible for the anomaly.
Determination of Leaf Area of Some Vegetable Plants Grown under Greenhouse Condition by Non-Destructive Methods
Authors: KARACA Cihan , BÜYÜKTAŞ Dursun , ŞEHİR Süleyman
Published: December 2020

The use of a mathematical model approach, which is a non-destructive method to determine the leaf area, has been used safely in recent years. The most important reason for this is that the application is easy and the application cost is very low. The most important disadvantage of this method is that the derived models need calibration according to different crop varieties. In the study, firstly, the width (W) and length (L) measurements of each individual leaf taken from the crops were correlated with the actual area of the leaf and crop-specific models were developed. The actual area (LA) of each leaf used in the sampling was determined by the ImageJ software. In the study, 7 different models were derived for each crop species (1, LA=a+bL2+cL2/W2+dW2+eLW; 2, LA=a+bL2+cW2+dLW; 3, LA=a+bL2+cW2; 4, LA=aL2+bW2; 5, LA=aLb+cWd+e; 6, LA=a+bLW; 7, LA=aLW). The coefficients in the models were determined separately for each crop species. In order to evaluate the performance of the models, some performance criteria such as determination coefficient (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE), relative error (RE), mean bias error (MBE) and Willmott index (d) were used. In this study, leaf areas were estimated with high accuracy (R2=0.96 for tomato; R2=0.99 for pepper, eggplant and cucumber) with these models without using expensive measuring devices.

A tanulmány az Európa-eszme jelentését és relevanciáját értékeli egy multikulturális, a nem európai gyökerűek jelenlétéből és szokásaiból egyre többet merítő kontinens kontextusában. A kirekesztőnek és múltba nézőnek ítélt klasszikus Európa-eszme kritikáját adva egy alternatív Európa-eszme megalkotására is kísérletet tesz. Ennek alapja a migrációs térként érzékelt Európához tartozás különleges étosza, nem pedig az európainak nevezett embercsoport tovább élő kulturális értékei. Az egységet egalitáriánus politikai elvekkel biztosítja, mint a kulturális pluralizmust és különbözőséget egyszerre támogató és összekötő EU-szintű jogok. Olyan demokratikus vitalitást nyújt, melyben nincs sem eredet-, sem célmítosz, csak a polemizáló köznép iránti elkötelezettség.
Új irányok a regionális politikában a terület-tér meghatározása háromszintű alkufolyamatként – A „nyer-nyer-nyer modell" esettanulmány: A Leader EU kezdeményezés alkalmazása Görögországban

Ez a tanulmány a „terület-közösség" fogalom újradefiniálásával foglakozik; a körülhatárolható területi részegységeket mind politikai-ideológiai (szolidaritás, részvétel, társadalmi kohézió, értékrend), mind stratégiai dimenziójukban vizsgálja. A tanulmány a „terület-közösséget" úgy definiálja, mint az érzékelési folyamat határpontját, amely az alku-modellben háromoldalú összetett információként jelenik meg, és amely a tudásteremtésen, a tudás elterjesztésén és konverzióján alapul, miként azt a regionális politika új trendjei tükrözik. A három résztvevős integrált információ modellünkben az „erőtényezőt" jelenti az egyes résztvevők számára, mint egy „harmadik-láthatatlan" résztvevő (megjelenítve az alkuval kapcsolatos legjobb várakozásunkat – mely alkalmasint megegyezhet a versenytárs, valamint a területközösség, mint térségi egység számára optimális kimenetellel egyaránt). A javasolt modell (nyer-nyernyer) a Nash-féle (nyer-nyer) néven ismertté vált, az alkuban részt vevö felek közvetlen visszajelzéseiből kialakuló egyensúlyi ponttal rendelkező viselkedési modellen alapul. A kibővített modellben a közösség, mint egy harmadik, láthatatlan fél „vesz részt" az alkufolyamatban. Ez csak egyetlen helyzetben valósítható meg, ami az érzékelési folyamat határpontja. Ez a határpont adja egyúttal a terület-közösség fogalom újraértelmezését is.

The article discusses the effective resolution of family conflicts using mediation. The conditions providing high efficiency of this procedure are determined. The data of psychologists are given that the divorce of parents is a factor that has a negative impact on relationships with adolescents. The empirical data of domestic and foreign studies devoted to the study of divorce processes of couples with adolescent children are considered. It is assumed that it would be expedient to introduce into legal practice in the Russian Federation the suspension of the trial and the direction of the dissolving spouses for a preliminary meeting with the mediator. The advantages and goals of mediation are listed. It is emphasized that due to the obligatory preliminary meeting with the mediator, the attention of the parties will be drawn not only to their own needs, but also to the needs of minors.

The article substantiates the relevance of the development and implementation of ap-proaches to the formation of the cultural needs of a preschool child. The theoretical significance of the work lies in the fact that the model of the formation of the cultural needs of a senior preschool child is theoretically substantiated. The practical significance of the work lies in the possibility of using the results obtained in the course of the research in the educational activities of preschool educational institutions. The research results are presented and analyzed. A model for the implementation of a set of activities, educational events, including acquaintance with various types of culture, variable ways of exchanging impressions and creating their own opinion about culture in preschool children, is presented. Due to this, the formation of the cultural needs of the child should take place on the basis of his own interests.
Dragons are everywhere in Venice - Stories, Myths, Legends and Fairy Tales as Tools for Reflection in Teaching
Authors: Fisker Anna Marie , Heilmann Anna Eva
Published: December 2020

Stories and storytelling are part of our cultural heritage and we have experimented if these experiences and memories in a learning and teaching activity can contribute to new understandings and a new sense of community. Stories connect people, while also contributing to the freedom of thinking. Referring to Walter Benjamin, the German literary critic and philosopher, this paper reflects upon the stories, myths, legends and fairytales of Venice in relation to teaching and the use of storytelling as a tool in teaching. More specifically, it concerns an exploratory study with new and unique methods and interdisciplinary collaboration that focus on understanding cultural heritage through storytelling, including the freedom of thinking as an original teaching method to initiate creativity and imagination for the students in their works. The reflection is based on practical experiences during the CRAFT summer school during the Art Biennale 2019 in Venice.
Palacete do Lima – Preventive Reabilitation
Authors: Seco Paulo
Published: December 2020

This text aims to discuss the partial rehabilitation of a 19th century building, Palacete do Lima, in Porto within the framework of cultural heritage’s preservation through architecture. In this case, it is addressed the existence of a hydraulic mosaic floor that was discovered during the rehabilitation’s process and that influenced the decisions that have been made. In effect at previous moments of intervention in the Palacete the mosaic was hidden and later recovered.This text’s reflections intend also to stress that the design solutions were as less intrusive as possible in order to not compromise future and deeper interventions that are foreseen to be undertaken.
The Bauhaus Pots and Cups Express the Spirit of the Twentieth Century: Design in Art History and Pevsner's Definition of the Modern Movement
Authors: Vidrih Rebeka
Published: December 2020

Nikolaus Pevsner’s Pioneers of Modern Movement is considered the foundational text of two new historical fields, the history of modern architecture and the history of design. This contribution, nevertheless, discusses this text in the context of art-historical discipline. Pevsner himself namely understood his work as a complement to Kunstgeschichte: by defining the ‘Modern Movement’ in established art-historical terms and also by discussing not only architecture but attempting to define the style and the worldview expressed in it for the whole period and all of visual arts. Specifically, this contribution is interested in the place that Pevsner allocated to the design within his art-historical edifice, since inclusion of objects of everyday use within an art-historical study was not (and still is not) usual. For Pevsner, on the contrary, design (linked to architecture) turns out to be a key component of his narrative, even if not for aesthetic but rather for moral or social reasons.
ORGANIZACIJSKA KULTURA I POSLOVNA USPJEŠNOST PODUZEĆA: PERSPEKTIVA SUPARNIČKIH VRIJEDNOSTI U KONTEKSTU HRVATSKOG ICT SEKTORA
Authors:   Veleučilište u Šibeniku, Mečev Dijana , Grubišić Dragana
Published: December 2020

Cilj rada bio je istražiti povezanost organizacijske kulture i poslovne uspješnosti poduzeća. Za potrebe istraživanja organizacijska kultura je diferencirana prema tipologiji utemeljenoj na Modelu suparničkih vrijednosti. Empirijsko istraživanje je provedeno u 21 srednjem i velikom poduzeću ICT sektora hrvatskog gospodarstva. U tim je poduzećima ispitano ukupno 647 ispitanika. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da je organizacijska kultura bitna odrednica identiteta i sposobnosti srednjih i velikih poduzeća, pošto se pokazalo kako postoji statistički značajna razlika u poslovnoj uspješnosti poduzeća s obzirom na njihov dominantan tip organizacijske kulture. Dodatno, nađeno je da su poduzeća s dominantnim hijerarhijskim tipom organizacijske kulture statistički značajno manje poslovno uspješna od svih ostalih srednjih i velikih poduzeća istraživanog sektora. Iako se pretpostavljalo da će poduzeća s dominantnim tržišnim tipom organizacijske kulture biti poslovno najuspješnija u svom sektoru, istraživanje je pokazalo da su to poduzeća s dominantnim adhokratskim tipom organizacijske kulture. Implikacije navedenih rezultata ovim su jasne. Poduzeća koja teže biti poslovno uspješnija trebala bi biti eksterno orijentirana i fleksibilna u svojem poslovanju.
ANALIZA KLJUČNIH RAZVOJNIH TEHNOLOGIJA U INOVATIVNOM OKRUŽENJU U HRVATSKOJ
Authors:   Ekonomski institut, Zagreb, Aralica Zoran
Published: December 2020

Broj priznatih patentnih prijava u području ključnih razvojnih tehnologija smanjuje se u Hrvatskoj, za razliku od broja priznatih europskih patentnih prijava koji se povećao u razdoblju od 1997. do 2018. Jačanjem važnosti europskih patenata prijava povećava se važnost upotrebe ključnih razvojnih tehnologija u odnosu na njihovo stvaranje. Pri analizi patenata koji se identificiraju kao ključne razvojne tehnologije, na NUTS 2 razini koristili su se pokazatelji apsolutne i relativne tehnološke specijalizacije. Ti su patenti koncentrirani na području Grada Zagreba. Ipak, povećala se relativna važnost Panonske i Sjeverne Hrvatske u području ključnih razvojnih tehnologija u razdoblju 2012. – 2018. u odnosu na razdoblje 1997. – 2001. Zbog smanjenja broja odobrenih patentnih prijava u ovom području, nemoguće je govoriti o tehnološkoj specijalizaciji. S obzirom na jačanje važnosti upotrebe ključnih razvojnih tehnologija, potrebno je poticati policy programe koji će se u većoj mjeri koristiti ovim tehnologijama kao podlogom razvoja inovativnih proizvoda.
