Accounting Meets Economics: Towards an 'Accounting View' of Money

2018

This study lays the foundations of the 'Accounting View' of money. Using international accounting principles, the study argues that state and central bank monies are not debt, and that in fractional reserve regimes only a share of commercial bank money can be regarded as debt. The study determines how the seigniorage associated with the issuance of these monies should be accounted for in the financial statements of the issuing institutions, and examines what this implies for the correct understanding of money. The new view throws light into such issues as the true nature of central bank capital, commercial banks, and digital currencies. Drawing on it, new measurements of seigniorage are der…

The Dual Nature of Spreading Negative eWOM for Branded Offers: Emotional Reaction or Social Response? – A Structured Abstract

2017

The exchange of comments online about branded offers is defined in the literature as electronic word of mouth (eWOM). Most of the existing academic research on consumer behaviour focuses on positive emotions and behaviour about branded offers (Veloutsou and McAlonan 2012; Zarantonello et al. 2016). However, next to sharing positive comments, consumers are increasingly using online media to distribute unfavourable experiences and opinions about products and brands (Ullrich and Brunner 2015), and more research on the effects of the expression of negative comments online is needed. The negative electronic word of mouth (NeWOM) is defined in this study as negative statements made or distributed…

Hungary:Filling the Gaps in the Strategic State Sector

2017

The aim of this article is to introduce the evolution of the private sport sector in Hungary. First, taking a historical viewpoint into account, the emergence of the private sport sector will be sketched from the 1800s to date. It is reasonable to say that with some exceptional periods such as the state socialist era, the private sport sector in Hungary has always been present, but its scope and forms of function have been adapted to the current social, political, and economic environments. Second, statistical data will be presented to show the structure and volume of the private sport sector using data from 2013. Third, the ‘development path’ of sport acts, which reflects the professionali…

The game of rankings in a quality world university space

2019

The objective of this text is to proceed to an analysis of international classifications and their impact on two levels: a) their unexpected public success, and b) their decisive influence on higher education policy and strategy. We argue that defining quality assurance is crucial in order to legitimize choices about evaluation on a political and institutional level. In any case, it seems clear that rankings are a dubious construction but highly legitimized by the public and governments. So, under these circumstances, rankings are here and they will probably stay, together with the financial issues they create. Indeed, rankings are an interesting new global market product which universities…

Sport and Quality of Life

2022

Negli ultimi trent’anni lo sport ha assunto un significato molto rilevante nella vita delle persone e, seppure con notevoli differenze, sia nei paesi a sviluppo economico avanzato, sia in quelli in via di sviluppo. A livello individuale, esso ha costituito un’area di investimento identitario quando ha assunto la forma di sport spettacolo del quale fruire, alimentando la pratica del tifo e il fandom o costituendo il modello di uno stile di vita vincente; ma anche quando ha assunto la forma di pratica del tempo libero attraverso la quale tenersi in forma, facendo crescere, in questo caso, la diffusione di una cultura della salute e del benessere. Si tratta di due modalità di approcciare al co…

but also when he took the form of free time practice through which to keep fit making grow in this case the diffusion of a culture of health and well-being. These are two ways of approaching the consumption of sports by spectators and actorIn the last thirty years sport has taken on a very significant meaning in people's lives and albeit with considerable differences both in advanced economic development countries and in developing countries. On an individual level it constituted an area of identity investment when it assumed the shape of “sport spectacle” to be enjoyed fueling the practice of cheering and fandom or constituting the model of a winning lifestyleand the two ways of use can be strongly related to the perception and assessment of the quality of life. The “semantic universes” which however connote sport and “free time sports” have often appeared polarized. Commercial sport and sports professionalism are intertwined with the institutions of economics politics and culture which above all stress its “spectacularity” in order to capture first and foremost the audience. But also the sport of leisure time is intertwined with the actions of the institutions of economics politics and culture with the difference that these stress above all its “healthy value” aimed at the “healthy and rational” investment of time in an activity which improves the quality of life in the short medium and long period. This polarization between the consumption of sport entertainment - commercial sport - and the consumption of sport as a leisure activity - sport for all - has become increasingly interconnected precisely because of the increased collective identity demand via sport. In other words we have witnessed the spread of shape of sports entertainment that recall the importance of sports for psychophysical well-being for integration and social participation for the reduction of social inequalities ethnic and cultural differences and in which the importance assumed was weakened in the show from agonism from competition from the physical confrontation between two contenders or two teams. A sport in which we act with competitors as well as against competitors. And on the other hand we have gradually witnessed the spectacularization of sports in our free time to the point that the sharing of the results obtained through the declination of a competitive spirit that presents itself as directed no longer against other contenders but against its own performance limits it has become the way in which each person makes part of his or her own life spectacular the one he often considers most authentic. The aim of this work is to describe how the intertwining between the commercial/professional dimension of the sports show and the playful/recreational dimension of sports practice are fueled by a demand and an offer of social identity that characterizes these two “semantic universes”.Settore SPS/07 - Sociologia Generale

L'operatività del Secondary meaning sui componenti descrittivi di un marchio complesso rafforzatosi con l'uso

2014

Il commento affronta il tema del rafforzamento nel suo insieme del carattere distintivo di un marchio complesso per effetto della notorietà ottenuta con l’uso, tale da determinare una sua significativa penetrazione sul mercato. Si evidenzia, in particolare, che ciò non vale a fare acquisire automaticamente una capacità distintiva autonoma ad un suo singolo componente che ne è originariamente sprovvisto, risultando altrimenti violato il principio che ricollega la sopravvenienza di detta capacità (la c.d. “riabilitazione” associata al fenomeno del “secondary meaning”) alla idoneità in concreto di quello specifico segno a distinguere, nella percezione del pubblico di riferimento, un dato prodo…

Centri commerciali: trasformazioni indotte, tra ambiente e relazioni sociali

2012

la carenza di spazi pubblici a palermo e la proliferazione dei centri commerciali non sono fenomeni disgiunti, il cambiamento di Palermo è, spesso, legato a la moltiplicazione di luoghi incongrui, come i grandi centri di vendita, che creano discontinuità spaziali e che mettono in evidenza la crisi economica delle famiglie e la trasformazione del modello culturale, molto più legato al consumo e meno alla sostanza delle cose.

Educatio siglo XXI : revista de la Facultad de Educación

2021

¿Qué capacidades cartográficas posee el alumnado de primer ciclo de Educación Primaria si se tienen en cuenta sus experiencias personales? Para responder a esta cuestión se ha realizado un estudio de casos en 2º curso de Educación Primaria, donde se comparan las habilidades cartográficas de un grupo experimental en el que se ha intervenido con otro de control sin intervención. A la muestra se le aplica un pretest y un postest para que realice una representación pictórica de un itinerario y responda a cuatro cuestiones. Los resultados obtenidos se han categorizado según las clasificaciones propuestas por Lynch (1960), Boardman (1986) y Bale (1989) para el análisis del espacio geográfico. Las…

La cartolarizzazione dei crediti tributari degli enti locali: alcune questioni aperte

2017

Nell’ambito delle operazioni di cartolarizzazione aventi ad oggetto crediti della pubblica amministrazione, una delle questioni interpretative più delicate e tuttora aperte concerne la disciplina applicabile ai fini dell’individuazione dei contraenti coinvolti, ed in particolare del soggetto incaricato di assumere la veste di società veicolo. Alla complessità della questione non sembrerebbe, sino ad ora, essersi accompagnata un’approfondita riflessione dottrinale e giurisprudenziale sul tema, nonostante le evidenti ricadute applicative allo stesso connesse. Le successive considerazioni, pur riferite al limitato ambito della cartolarizzazione dei crediti tributari degli enti locali, scaturis…
