The Correlation Between Human Capital and Gross Added Value in the Bioeconomy Sectors at the European Union (EU) Country Level
2019
Abstract The paper aims to prove the link between human capital and gross added value in bioeconomy sectors in the EU countries. Data from EUROSTAT data base regarding employment and gross added value in 6 bioeconomy sectors were used in a cross-country regression analysis. The econometric analysis of cross-country data shows a positive correlation between human capital in bioeconomy sectors and their gross output in 2015 in 26 European countries. It is found also that the correlation is stronger in the highly developed economies as in the central-eastern countries, as well as in the European economy.
Reklamirovanie produkcii Reima v finskih i russkih kul'turnyh kontekstah : diskurs-analiz reklamy internet-sajta reima.fi

Tiivistelmä – Abstract Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastelen suomalaisen lastenvaatevalmistaja Reiman tuotteiden mainontaa sekä suomalaisessa että venäläisessä kulttuurisessa kontekstissa. Tutkin, millaisia asioita mainonnassa korostetaan, millä tavalla suomalaisuutta ja skandinaavisuutta tuodaan esille ja lisäksi onko mainosteksteissä sisällöllisesti eroa, eli miten kulttuurierot näkyvät mainosteksteissä. Reima on toiminut Venäjän markkinoilla jo 1960-luvun puolivälistä lähtien ja on saavuttanut siellä markkinajohtajan aseman. Yleensä ottaen Reiman tuotteita viedään jo yli 30 maahan ja vuonna 2016 80% myynnistä tulee Suomen ulkopuolelta. Venäjä on merkittävä maa viennin kannalta, ja Reima on laaj…
Assessing the Commodity Market Price and Terms of Trade Exposures of Macroeconomy in Emerging and Developing Countries
2021
This paper provides novel evidence on commodity market exposure, i.e., the impacts of commodity price and terms of trade fluctuations on macro performance amongst 46 emerging and developing countries (EMDCs) in Africa, Asia and the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region. We estimate the exposure of six macroeconomic variables to the commodity prices and terms of trade. Our results indicate that in overall terms, there is a strong and statistically significant long-run relationship between the vector of analyzed world trade prices and macro variables in all EMDCs. However, based on the short-term reactions, only about 10% of the macroeconomic variation amongst the EMDCs is due to commodit…
Measuring integration in new countries of immigration
2018
Abstract The purpose of this study is to develop a framework to measure immigrant integration in emerging immigrant destinations. After several decades of intensive research, the definition and assessment of immigrants’ integration remains elusive. Increasingly more attempts have been made to foster scientific progress in the field in the las decades. Yet, immigrant integration in emerging destination countries remains particularly little studied despite several calls for more research on the topic. The developed integration framework (i.e. the Integration Score) is composed of 6 dimensions and 24 indicators of integration (4 indicators for every dimension). To empirically test the validity…
El ejercicio físico y la promoción de la salud en la infancia y la juventud
1992
SummaryThe «new health consciousness» that emerged in the developing countries in the 70s and 80s, has contributed to consider exercise as an element of health promotion. But it can establish simplistic relationships between exercise and health, particularly critical for professionals who develop promotion programmes. In this paper, five problematic aspects linked, to exercise and health relationships both in children and youngsters, are discussed and should be taken into account when promoting health programmes. We refer to: 1) the problematic role of exercise in health promotion and in physical education curriculum as an area of privileged action in children and youngsters; 2) the automat…
Has Multiculturalism Failed in Europe? Migration Policies, State of Emergency, and Their Impact on Migrants’ Identities in Italy
2014
This chapter analyzes migration policies in Italy within the larger frame of the debate on multiculturalism and its failure in Europe. The first part focuses on the exceptional flow of migrants that after the recent conflicts in Northern Africa was directed toward Europe across the Italian coast. The emergency raised issues for the defense of territories, social security, and preservation of identity. The author demonstrates the inefficiency of the Italian migration and emergency policies that has been adopted at the arrival of undocumented migrants from Northern Africa in 2011. The chapter uses the case of Italy to show the weakness of Europe in developing effective forms of coexistence an…
On the social meanings inherent in literacy campaigns
1990
Artikkelissa tarkastellaan luku- ja kirjoitustaitokampanjoita käsittelevän kansainvälisen dokumenttiaineiston perusteella sitä, millaisia merkityksiä sisältyy lukuja kirjoitustaidottomuuden määrittelyyn yhteiskunnalliseksi ongelmaksi, ja asetetaan kyseenalaiseksi tässä aineistossa ilmenevä yleismaailmallinen ideologia. Lisäksi pohditaan luku- ja kirjoitustaidon mahdollisista emansipatorista merkitystä kehitysmaiden oloissa.
Prise en charge au long cours par les anti-agrégants plaquettaires oraux après un syndrome coronaire aigu
2007
Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of early death and morbidity in the industrialized world and is becoming a growing problem in many developing countries. Coagulation inhibitors play a major role in the management of the acute phase of ACS whether in association with reperfusion strategies or not. Currently, and in accordance with the results of major randomised studies, for medium and long-term management, the association of Clopidogrel and aspirin is the treatment of choice. However, despite the recognised benefits of this therapeutic strategy and above all the recommendations of learned societies, which have placed this bi-therapy in class I, according to national and internati…

Impact of Sex Differences and Diabetes on Coronary Atherosclerosis and Ischemic Heart Disease
2018
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) including coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic heart disease (IHD) are the main cause of mortality in industrialized countries. Although it is well known that there is a difference in the risk of these diseases in women and men, current therapy does not consider the sexual dimorphism; i.e., differences in anatomical structures and metabolism of tissues. Here, we discuss how genetic, epigenetic, hormonal, cellular or molecular factors may explain the different CVD risk, especially in high-risk groups such as women with diabetes. We analyze whether sex may modify the effects of diabetes at risk of CAD. Finally, we discuss current diagnostic techniques in th…
