Comparison of professional plans of students from rural areas and cities in terms of economic mentality

2017

Process of globalization, rapidly progressing nowadays, can cause conflicts between cultural norms and values valid in a globalized society and local values. Similar mechanism may occur on a smaller scale, where culture characteristic of urban centers and rural areas may clash. The purpose of this article is to establish what is the economic mentality of students at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Opole from rural areas and cities by comparative analysis of one of its components - work. The article presents a fragment of own research conducted in April 2016 year. Research is an introduction to the wider research into the economic culture of rural areas. In the course of testin…

Experience of knowledge translation in the ITSAL (immigration, work and health) research project with representatives of the target population

2014

Se describe una experiencia de transferencia de conocimiento entre investigadores del proyecto ITSAL (Inmigración, Trabajo y SALud) y representantes de asociaciones que trabajan con población inmigrante para discutir los resultados obtenidos en esta investigación y las líneas de futuro. Para ello se llevó a cabo una reunión en la que participaron tres investigadoras y 18 representantes de 11 instituciones. Tras una exposición de la metodología y los resultados del proyecto ITSAL, todos los asistentes comentaron los resultados presentados y líneas de investigación de interés. Se pusieron de manifiesto coincidencias entre ambas partes y también se obtuvieron propuestas de interés para el proy…

Mammalian cell metabolomics: Experimental design and sample preparation

2013

Metabolomics represents the global assessment of metabolites in a biological sample and reports the closest information to the phenotype of the biological system under study. Mammalian cell metabolomics has emerged as a promising tool with potential applications in many biotechnology and research areas. Metabolomics workflow includes experimental design, sampling, sample processing, metabolite analysis, and data processing. Given their influence on metabolite content and biological interpretation of data, a good experimental design and the appropriate choice of a sample processing method are prerequisites for success in any metabolomic study. The use of mammalian cells in the metabolomics f…

L’allevamento bovino nella valle del Torto: un caso di zootecnia sostenibile in Sicilia

2011

In spite of not being the main activities of Sicilian agriculture, zootechny plays a very important social role, even more than economic, for a large part of Sicily. The crisis that has hit the industry since early 2000s, and particularly cattle livestock, caused the closure of many holdings and a strong decrease in the number of animals bred, both meat and dairy cattle. The beef cattle population in the Valle del Torto, in the province of Palermo (area covered by this study), for many decades has significantly contributed to the development of a rural community that trough this activity created his own wealth, income and economic stability. The crisis that over the last decade has affected…

Un modèle radiocentrique pour l'analyse des espaces ruraux périurbains

1995

Research on periurbanisation’s factors, a phenomenon that has greatly contributed to the demographic growth of French rural areas for the last twenty-five years, leads us to ask about the determinants of residential location in rural areas of people working in a town. In order to answer this question, it is necessary to transpose residential location models usually used at the scale of the town - models which are the basis of the New Urban Economics school - to periurban areas. The area we are interested in is differentiated both from urban and rural areas seen from the agricultural production point of view. But we show that it can be analyzed in the same manner as urban areas. However, thi…

Economies d'agglomération et configurations spatiales dans les espaces ruraux

1997

The question to be addressed here is that of the agglomeration/dispersion forces that are likely to account for the location of people and jobs in rural areas and the way they explain spatial patterns in rural areas depending on urban influence. Economic geography models may provide suitable tools with which to investigate the organization of rural areas. We first review these models, focusing on dispersion forces, which rest basically on land consumption and transport costs. We suggest then a set of hypotheses concerning the main forces at work in rural areas. Intensity of agglomeration economies is hypothesized to be related to the urban size, which in turn induces increasing land rents a…
