Economic Structure and Vulnerability to Organised Crime: Evidence from Sicily
2008
The economic analysis of organised crime suggests that some economic activities are particularly vulnerable to penetration by criminal organisations. This paper provides an analysis of the structure of the Sicilian economy and shows that, when compared with other Italian regions, it is characterised by a disproportionate presence of such activities. In particular, the economy of Sicily appears characterised by: (i) a large dimension of traditional sectors, such as the Construction sector, which also has a strong territorial specificity; (ii) a large presence of small firms; (iii) a low level of technology; (iii) a large public sector. The joint presence of these features creates fertile soi…
Perheliikunta kolmannella sektorilla
2017
Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin perheliikunnan organisoimista ja edistämistä kolmannen sektorin kattojärjestöissä. Tutkimustehtävänä oli selvittää millaista perheliikuntaa kolmannen sektorin järjestöt organisoivat ja edistävät, millaisia syitä perheliikuntatyön taustalla on, sekä millaisena perheliikunnan tulevaisuus näyttäytyy haasteineen ja mahdollisuuksineen järjestöissä. Tutkimus toteutettiin laadullisena tutkimuksena. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin kahdeksalla teemahaastattelulla. Haastateltavat järjestöt olivat liikunta- ja urheilujärjestöjä tai sosiaali- ja terveysjärjestöjä. Haastateltavista kahdeksasta järjestöistä viisi kuului Liikkujan polku -verkoston perheliikunnan teemaryhmään. Haasta…
Legitimacy Lost and Back to Normality: Scandals in the Public Sector – the Swedish Case
2007
Scandals provide an opportunity to generate more knowledge about the process in which organizational legitimacy can be restored. This article is based on a study of all scandals in the Swedish public sector from 1995-1997 and four case studies in four organizations conducted 2003. In scandals in the Swedish public sector, players in leading positions are linked to some transgression, often of a financial nature. The less expected the transgression, the stronger the public reaction and the more the organisation’s legitimacy diminish. A scandal implies a failure for everyone in the organisation. The organisation is subjected to questions, scrutiny and slander. Because the tough scrutiny, it b…
Mejora de la calidad de vida del residente a través de estrategias de marketing: Un análisis comparado entre México y España.
2015
Los gobiernos locales hoy en día deben desarrollarse y crecer igual que las grandes empresas existentes en el mundo. Para ello, deben gestionar y administrar sus territorios geográficos como si de una marca se tratara. En este tenor, la actitud hacia la marca-ciudad favorece la creación de actitudes positivas hacia la sostenibilidad. En este marco, la presente tesis persigue los cinco objetivos siguientes: (i) Abordar el papel del marketing experiencial basado en mega-eventos para construir, tanto actitud hacia la marca-ciudad como hacia la sostenibilidad. (ii) Abordar el papel del marketing verde (orientación ecológica) para construir, tanto actitud hacia la marca-ciudad como hacia la sost…

MEASURING PERFORMANCE IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR: BETWEEN NECESSITY AND DIFFICULTY
2014
Performance measurement (PM) in the public sector is indeed a necessity. PM has been introduced in many public organizations in order to ensure transparency of public decisions and the use of public funds and to boost performance. But in practice, this concept strikes many obstacles: defining performance in the public sector, identifying suitable performance indicators, implementation of a performance management system. A challenge, still present, is to identify the most suitable methods for monitoring and measuring performance, so do not give rise to speculative behavior among employees and managers. This paper presents the methods used in measuring performance in the public sector, as wel…
Extensions of the standard model scalar sector and constraints from ccolliders and cosmology
2013
In this thesis we study the Higgs sector of the Standard Model and compare it to the latest data from the LHC and Tevatron experiments. Then we consider two extensions of the Higgs sector. First we extend the Standard Model Higgs sector with one real SU(2) singlet and then we consider two-Higgs- doublet model and extend also it with one real singlet. In both extensions the singlet scalar is considered as a potential dark matter candidate. We find that the parameter space of the so called two-Higgs-doublet-inert-singlet model includes regions which could provide a dark matter candidate which constitutes significant amount of the total dark matter mass density.
La prise en compte de la durabilité dans les stratégies marketing des PME : apports et limites
2011
Nous examinons dans cet article comment des directeurs de PME agroalimentaires à fort ancrage territorial s’approprient la notion de développement durable et l’expriment dans leurs stratégies marketing. Nous examinons successivement leur vision du lien entre développement durable et performance, l’impact des caractéristiques environnementales sur leurs pratiques et les limites qu’ils perçoivent à cette volonté d’intégrer la durabilité dans leur stratégie au moment de sa mise en œuvre. Au-delà de l’argument commercial, la durabilité apparaît comme un levier intéressant du projet d’entreprise et de la mobilisation des salariés. Néanmoins, la démarche comporte aussi des limites.
Knowledge Management in the Project Life Cycle - Initial Research on Polish Smes
2014
Abstract Contemporary organizations run their activities in an environment, which might be defined as fully uncertain and turbulent. Due to variations that occur in the surrounding environment, an increased attention of management practitioners and theoreticians is paid to new management concepts frequently in an integrated version. The authors express a deep belief that consolidation of approaches to project management and knowledge management constitutes a response to challenge for modern organizations. Research into the issue was based on an attempt to determine significance of the knowledge management issue in a life of projects performed by Polish small and medium-sized enterprises (SM…
