Social Science Research in Southeast Asia : the Challenges of Studying Parliamentary Institutions

2019

This paper introduces the challenges of studying parliamentary institutions in Southeast Asia. My focus of research is in three countries’ institutions: national parliaments of Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. While in Southeast Asia, it is widely known that studying issues of politics and institutions face challenges – compared to studying culture, for example, this view is arguably no longer valid, however with certainqualification.The comparison of parliamentary tradition between three countries – based on observation of the plenary session - reveals that the effectiveness of parliamentary works is related to parliamentary procedure, and even to the culture of work in the countries.

Binds of Professionalism: Attachment in Australian and Finnish Early Years Policy

2016

Attachment theory is often referenced in psychology, social work and early childhood care and education, and is ubiquitous in popular publications directed to parents, carers and educators of young children. It is considered as a ‘grand theory’ that explains “the growth of social relationships from infants’ experiences with their caregivers and the consequent social preference called attachment” (Mercer, 2011, p. 26). In this chapter, we understand attachment theory as a discourse and as part of the ‘psy-complex’, “the sprawling speculative and regulative network of theories and practices that constitute psychology” (Parker, 2002, p. 199). We focus on the operation of ‘attachment discourses…

2016

Dla współcześnie działającego przedsiębiorstwa koncepcja CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) staje się dynamicznie rozwijającym się standardem. Przejawia się głównie w takich wydarzeniach, jak: kampanie społeczne, wolontariat pracowniczy, sponsoring wydarzeń kulturalnych, sprzedaż produktów połączona z przeznaczaniem części zysku na określony cel społeczny, tworzenie kodeksów etycznych czy ekoznakowanie produktów. Mimo szczytnego celu przyświecającego koncepcji CSR, często stosowana jest ona jedynie wówczas, gdy przynosi korzyści. Jej wdrożenie do praktyki gospodarczej nie ma nic wspólnego z altruizmem, lecz odzwierciedla sposób zarządzania przedsiębiorstwem, prowadzący do zrównoważonego …

AMMINISTRAZIONE PUBBLICA E SISTEMI DI INTELLIGENZA ARTIFICIALE: ALCUNE RIFLESSIONI

2022

This paper aims to examine how public administrations tend to use artificial intelligence systems, in the light of the legal framework and jurisprudential developments.

Estar al otro lado de la mesa. Profesionales de los servicios públicos de empleo ante los dilemas de la activación laboral

2019

Under the paradigm of activation, the Public Employment Services has been reshaped by two levels of contractualization. On one hand, the collaboration of the administration with a network of agents on the programme scheme that make up the active policies of employment. On the other hand, the unemployed person?s access to a compartmentalized offer of services and individually taking responsibility for finding work. This double contractualization reveals redefinition of lowering public responsibility faced with the problem of unemployment that this activation supposes. This paper analyses how this redesign has an impact on how professionals serve the unemployed population. This lays bare, in …

Zarządzanie procesowe jako warunek wzrostu efektywności działania administracji publicznej

2016

Zarządzanie procesowe jest koncepcją znaną w praktyce gospodarczej już od wielu lat. Sektor publiczny dopiero niedawno zainteresował się możliwościami implementacji orientacji procesowej do zarządzania jednostkami administracji publicznej.

Dlatego też celem niniejszego opracowania jest wskazanie potencjału zarządzania procesowego jako instrumentu modernizacji i organizacji pracy organów samorządowych. Wskazano jednocześnie wyzwania stojące prze…
