Analysis of Terrorism Motivation Determinants
Authors: Krastev Krastyu 
Published: July 2018

AbstractIn its essence, terrorism is a human destructive activity and as such it is characterized by certain motives, needs, etc. It is important for the researchers to analyze in detail the needs that underlie normal human functioning and those that determine terrorism and integration into a terrorist organization. It is quite possible that such a research approach leads to the conclusion that they are not principally, qualitatively different, rather the needs of the terrorist are hypertrophied basic human needs, and the differences are quantitative. The current paper presents some results of the analyses of the main determinants of motivation for terrorism - the need for power; belonging, recognition and self-realization as undoubted motivators of terrorist activity, etc

Authors: Majchut Ivan 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The use of a conventional military force is increasingly difficult in today's armed conflicts. “Complex” civil-military force, which is still suffering from the lack of cooperation, is generally preferred. So-called irregular warfare demands different skills of the military forces compared to conventional warfare. Preparation of armed forces to conditions of irregular surroundings requires new approaches to education, training and deployment

Authors: Nate Silviu , Ratiu Aurelian 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
A new technological paradigm often leads to a new societal paradigm, and not vice versa. Challenges faced are not only related to technology, it is the human consciousness that determines the role and influences the outcome of these tools. A comprehensive approach is desirable to understand the regular and irregular interdependence between social ecosystems and information ecosystems. The phenomenon offers the facility to induce short-term attitudes, and long-term mutations from the perspective of societal security, informational actions shapes collective attitudes, and influences people's critical choices. Deciphering, exposing and counteracting information aggressions may be possible by developing a mechanism of processes understanding, based on a support of multidisciplinary acceptance. The present research paper, provides an overview by what method the relationship between Non-Kinetic warfare and information ecosystems can be approached
Strategic Communication as an Augumentativ Factor in Social Resilience
Authors: Roman Vasile 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The society is in a turmoil neither because globalization, high technology or immigration crises, but rather from the race of regional (China and Russia) or world power (US) to develop a new strategies to influence the countries. Europe is not bypassed by these phenomena because Russia as a regional actor is trying to create new sphere of influence at its periphery (especially in Baltic States, Poland and Romania). Romania, as NATO and European Union member, is one of the Russia’s targets not only because geographically it is in the Russia’s proximity, but because it is an area of American’s interests. Russia is developing a real hybrid war, using all the line of effort: political, economical, but specially the social one. The social field is covered by propaganda, promoted by mass-media, as a tool of political power. To counter-attack Russia’s hybrid war, NATO decided, at the Warsaw Summit to develop some operational lines, one is being strategic communication and the second is related with social resilience. The political, administrative and educational institutions are asked to apply this strategy, to find the way to educate people (almost via mass-media) in what is resilience and more important how it works when it is realized
A Systemic View of International Projects with Virtual Teams
Authors: Dumitrascu-Baldau Iulia , Dumitrascu Dănuţ Dumitru 
Published: July 2018

AbstractSystemic thinking is an instrument used in any field to understand the complexity of the changes and challenges that take place, and to discover the reciprocal links and conditions between the internal elements that determine the functioning of the system. Understanding how the international project with virtual project teams works as a system can help us better address the issues that arise in managing it, helping to increase the success rate. The international project with teams in the virtual environment, due to the diversity it embraces, in various aspects, especially at the cultural level, is considered a complex system, and can be seen as a system of systems. This term applies to systems in which interactions that could appear between different elements and deliverables are difficult to represent by a mathematical model or to be anticipated. In order to highlight the complexity of the international project system, we chose to represent project management in the virtual environment as a subsystem through the subsystems that compose it. This graphic representation can be used as a theoretical model of how to manage an international project with teams in the virtual environment
Active Perspectives on the Motivation of Human Resources in Organization to Meet Objectives
Authors: Halmaghi Elisabeta-Emilia , Voica Artur-Cristian , Bacila Lidia-Marinela 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
In this study we began with the idea that the development and success of an organization depend on its resources, interaction between them and their functioning as a system. The main resource that can engage all the organization's resources so as the organization should achieve its goals, is the human resource. Therefore, once they become part of an organization, the employees will have to integrate into it and contribute to the smooth running of their activities. The managers have the mission to understand, motivate and actively involve the employees in achieving the organization's goals so as these should successfully fulfill their responsibilities. The conclusion of the study is that if employees are not motivated and actively involved in fulfilling their activities, they do not perform their tasks. Failure to perform tasks leads to conflicts with colleagues and superiors and failure to achieve the goals set in the organization
Particularities Relating to the Risk Management into the Military Decision-Making Process
Authors: Iancu Dumitru , Badea Dorel 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
Complex phenomenon and particularly challenging, the decision-making process in the military field is, perhaps, the place where the risk is defined and is found in “pure form”. The dynamics of actions, environmental factors, technical and tactical characteristics of military structures are just a few items that generate a range of risks which must be managed by each commander, both at the time of the decision, and during its implementation. For these reasons, and not only, we support the idea that risk management in the military field may be the key to success in any mission

Study Regarding the Defense Expenditure Analysis in Nato
Authors: Popa Ioan Gabriel , Pîrvuţ Valentin 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
Armed conflicts are a reality of the present world. Military power is an active actor in domestic and international relations. Defense must have the financial allocations necessary to sustain a flexible and modern army. The macroeconomic and geostrategic factors, including the change of power poles from the West to the East, the demographic changes and the limited resources are elements that will deeply reconfigure the trends in military expenditure. This is the case in less developed areas of the world where trends will bring instability and will put additional, internal and external pressure on the challenges of defense and security. NATO countries have assumed the 2% of GDP target for defense expenditure, but are making great efforts to reach this level. In 2016, only 4 out of 29 NATO members, or 14% reached the target of 2% of GDP for military expenditure and 20 out of 29 NATO countries spent less in absolute terms in 2016 compared to 2014

Abstract
In a perspective of a long-awaited and postponed revision of the Romanian Constitution, we consider that it is necessary to reanalyze the name of the state power, given to public authorities (legislative, executive and judicial), opposite the quality of the Romanian people's sole proprietor of power in the state. Under this aspect, the current constitution materializes an obvious normative indecision and inconsistency of terminology of the constituent Legislator.Also, in the legal doctrine of the field, although there are numerous and remarkable scientific works of constitutional law, he subject, as a rule, is bypassed, and the power of the people and the powers of the state are analyzed As if the first consecration would not exclude the other, And the recognition of the latter would not question the existence of the former

The aim of this article is to present the migrant crisis as a top priority during the fifth in the history Polish rotating presidency of the Visegrad Four - from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017. This objective will be realized through the implementation of basic tasks - analysis of the documents adopted at the forums of the organization, and the views of leading politicians from the Visegrad countries
The Conflicting Implications of the Right to Information as Recognised by Public International Law
Authors: Manova Bilyana Borisova 
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe present article outlines the most significant stages in the gradual development of international law towards a recognition of a right to information. It explores the instruments and judicial decisions in which this right has been acknowledged as well as the conditions under which it may be exercised including the categories of requesters entitled to it, the kinds of information that may be accessed and the purposes of such access. The article further examines the manifold and often conflicting aspects of the right to information and its relation to concepts such as democracy, security, freedom of expression, right to private life, corporate secrets, investigating journalism and whistleblowers. In particular, it analyses the importance of the access to information about the exercise of political power by public authorities and the crucial role it should play in enabling wellfunctioning democratic societies where responsible government, public scrutiny over the political processes and a right to an informed participation in public affairs is effectively guaranteed to all citizens. However, the risks that the public access to information poses to national security and to the well-recognized right to private life are also taken into account

Expressions of Relational Power in Nato Discourse: Cooperation with Former Adversaries
Authors: Dragomir Isabela Anda 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The dissolution of the Soviet Empire in 1991 has challenged the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to grapple with an issue that had been avoided and postponed during the Cold War - how to give specific and practical content to the Alliance’s long-standing vision of a peaceful political order in Europe. This paper examines the galvanizing role of language in forging a solid discourse aimed at initiating and consolidating cooperation between the Alliance and its former adversaries in the aftermath of the Soviet Union’s collapse. Drawing on discourse analysis as a method of qualitative investigation, the present linguistic exploration of military discourse focuses on a number of NATO official documents that reify the Alliance’s determination to contribute to the construction of a more secure transatlantic environment
Study of the Dietary Intake of Cadets from the National Military University “Vasil Levski” - Part I
Authors: Glushkov Pavlin Ivanov 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The study was conducted in the period July - September 2017 at the National Military University "Vasil Levski” - Veliko Tarnovo, Republic of Bulgaria. The subject of the research is the provision of free food as an integral part of the full state support of the students at the National Military University "Vasil Levski". The subject of the study is the impact of objective social, biological, economic and other factors in the dietary intake of male and female students at the National Military University "Vasil Levski” The working hypothesis of the study is that the popularity of the "fast food” concept, the economic difficulties associated with buying high-quality food resulting from the low income levels of the students’ families, the marketing strategies of food traders and the biological characteristics of each individual have largely shaped the habits and the perception of nutrition of the students before enrolling at the National Military University "Vasil Levski". This, in turn, implies that the existing nutrition norms should be adapted to the consumers in line with the basic principles of nutrition science. The study is conducted at the National Military University "Vasil Levski", Veliko Tarnovo. Cadets at the “Land Forces” Faculty - region of Veliko Tarnovo and “Artillery, Air Defense and Communication and Information Systems” Faculty - region of Shoumen are provided with food from the same menu and with uniform food prices. Peculiarities based on religious grounds and vegetarianism which are not in line with the science of nutrition and the principles of army nutrition are not taken into consideration

Authors: Macovei Crenguţa Mihaela 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric structure of the Perceived Cohesion Scale (PCS). For this, we applied that scale version that was adapted by Chin, Salisbury, Pearson, & Stollak for small groups because we considered that the formulation of the items is very well suited to the type of group represented by the military student platoon. The results of our study support the two-factor structure of the scale proposed by its authors. Both identified factors have demonstrated adequate levels of reliability. This scale proves to be a useful tool in measuring the cohesion of military student groups

Intercultural Competence in Teaching and Learning Foreign Languages
Authors: Obilişteanu Georgeta , Niculescu Brânduşa-Oana 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
There has been an increase in the importance of the cultural aspect in teaching and learning foreign languages, and teachers nowadays are supposed to stimulate the acquisition and development of intercultural competence in their students. Foreign language teaching and learning should be regarded from an intercultural perspective. The foreign language classes can be the link between the two cultures by which students have the opportunity to discover other values, mentalities, and facets of life. In doing this, a new vision should be taken into consideration, in which the teacher naturally and harmoniously combines the linguistic and cultural elements in the educational process during all types of lessons, irrespective of the topic being dealt with, or whether they focus on grammar or vocabulary issues. The culture and civilization notions must not be regarded separately, but should be integrated in the activities meant to develop the four language skills. This paper highlights the role of foreign language teachers in developing intercultural competence, the didactic activities used in forming the cadets’ intercultural competence, pointing to the way in which this competence is achieved in the military higher education environment as well

Aspects of the Cycling Phenomenon in the Linear Programming Problem (Lpp) Through the Example of Marshall and Suurballe
Authors: Carutasu Vasile 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
A complete analysis of the cycling phenomenon in the case of the linear programming problem (LPP) is far from being achieved. Even if [5] states that the answer to the fundamental question of this problem is found, the proposed solution is very difficult to apply, being necessary to find a solution of a complex system of inequalities. Additionally, it is difficult to recognize a problem that, by applying the primal simplex algorithm, leads us to the occurrence of this phenomenon. The example given by Marshall and Suurballe, but also the example given by Danzig, lead us to draw some useful conclusions about this phenomenon, whether the given problem admits the optimal solution or has an infinite optimal solution
