Toward a stage theory of the development of employees’ information security behavior
2020
Existing behavioral information security research proposes continuum or non-stage models that focus on finding static determinants for information security behavior (ISB) that remains unchanged. Such models cannot explain a case where the reasons for ISB change. However, the underlying reasons and motives for users’ ISB are not static but may change over time. To understand the change in reasoning between different antecedents, we examine stage theorizing in other fields and develop the requirements for an emergent theory of the development of employees’ ISB: (1) the content of stages based on the stage elements and their stage-specific attributes; (2) the stage-independent element explaini…
Recent Anti-Mafia Strategies: The Italian Experience
2008
We often tend to think of criminal policies as essentially repressive. At first sight this assumption seems to apply straightforwardly in the case of policies against organized crime, especially those targeted at mafia type organizations. However, experience shows that these criminal organizations can be fought successfully also by means of measures which are not in themselves repressive, albeit they aim to favour repression in the last resort. Together with direct repressive measures, in the Italian case we indeed register a wide variety of other policies addressing civil society and public administrations, and only indirectly the mafia. Indirect strategies, therefore, are aimed at the rei…
Dynamiques de développement et inégalités régionales en Chine
2009
Le rapide développement économique de la Chine a généré des inégalités socio-spatiales croissantes, qui se marquent par un décalage croissant entre provinces littorales et intérieures, et entre villes et campagnes. À partir de l’examen des données statistiques officielles chinoises, on peut clairement repérer une aggravation des déséquilibres internes de la Chine, qui sont des facteurs potentiels de déstabilisation sociale, en particulier dans le cas des paysans venus tenter leur chance dans les grandes aires urbaines littorales, ou chassés de leurs terres par l’expansion périmétropolitaine. Cela entraîne aujourd’hui une politique différenciée d’aménagement du territoire chinois visant à co…
Public policies for the elderly from a human rights based approach
2021
El presente trabajo parte de la premisa de que el envejecimiento de la población es un fenómeno que hay que abordar desde las políticas públicas puesto que interroga a la sociedad en su conjunto y exige la responsabilidad de los Estados como garantes de los derechos de las personas mayores. Tales políticas deberán guiarse por los estándares y principios marcados por Naciones Unidas, el Consejo de Europa y la Unión Europea, que reclaman adoptar un enfoque basado en derechos Humanos y una atención integral centrada en la persona, como canales para articular un tratamiento adecuado de los derechos de las personas mayores, sin olvidar el compromiso ético de todos los agentes implicados en dar r…
De participació local. Una proposta metodològica desde la investigació-acció-participativa
2018
Citizen participation is an increasingly prevalent term in our society. In the process of deployment in the municipal area, progressively local corporations make efforts to innovate practices and develop experiences of citizen participation in defining policies and public affairs, and allocating budgets. While innovation has been advanced with regard to the tools and mechanisms to be used to promote participation, many of the initiatives and experiences have focused more on the implementation of the vote than in the different social processes inherent in the participation. Moreover, we are faced with the absence of a methodological guide that allows approaching a project or strategic plan o…

Politiche migratorie nell’ambito del partenariato UE-Tunisia. Cooperazione allo sviluppo, principio di solidarietà e aspettative tradite
2022
La crisi migratoria ha manifestato le debolezze di Dublino III e la fallacia della solidarietà europea, quale principio alla base del Sistema Comune Europeo di Asilo. Di conseguenza, le istituzioni europee si sono concentrate maggiormente sulla ‘dimensione esterna’ dell'UE, attraverso accordi che esternalizzino il controllo migratorio verso Paesi terzi, impedendo ai migranti irregolari di raggiungere i confini europei. Il contributo analizza gli effetti di questa cooperazione: la creazione di una pre-frontiera in un Paese, come la Tunisia, dove vengono impiegate pratiche illegali. In particolare, la prima parte del contributo esamina i rapporti tra Ue e Tunisia, storicamente ‘paese di trans…
Europeizacja polityk publicznych
2015
The objective of the paper is to investigate the state of the art in the research on Europeanization of public policies. In the first step it operationalizes the concept of Europeanization for the purpose of analyzing its influence on the public policies. Next, it overviews the methods in which this problem is researched in other EU member states and then consequently it applies this conclusions into the research concept. The article is illustrated with both quantitative data on the scope of the European legislation penetration in today’s Europe as well as qualitative exemplifications in the field of public health and environment in Poland.
External Developmental Assets and Positive Identity Among Emerging Adults in Norway, Romania, Slovenia, and Turkey
2021
The present study adopts The Developmental Assets and Positive Youth Development (PYD) perspectives which (in contrast to the deficit-based approaches which highlight risks and deficit in youth development) claim that young people have potencies to achieve optimal development if supported by their social environment. Extant research indicates that developmental assets are linked with a variety of thriving indicators. The present research aimed to contribute to the PYD research by examining the external developmental assets (support, empowerment, and boundaries and expectations) emerging adults (N= 2055; age range = 18–28) perceived in their social environment and the level of their positive…
Racjonalizacja planowania rozwoju miast w aspekcie teoretycznym i praktycznym
2021
Punktem wyjścia w dyskusji o ewolucji systemu zarządzania rozwojem miast jest zazwyczaj analiza jego braków i słabości. Rzadziej są nim stosowane przez gminy praktyki planistyczne, które zwiększają skuteczność i racjonalność podejmowanych działań. Artykuł stanowi esencjonalny przegląd aktualnych dobrych praktyk z obszarów planowania przestrzennego i strategicznego, obrazujących oddolne i nieskodyfikowane działania samorządów lokalnych.Przykłady zostały osadzone w teoretycznych ramach holistycznego ujęcia problemu rozwoju miast. Celem artykułu, poza ilustracją zagadnień wraz z ich teoretyczną podbudową, jest inspiracja do zmian w kształcie opisanej przepisami prawa ustawowej części systemu p…
