Systemic Management of Architectural Decisions in Enterprise Architecture Planning. Four Dimensions and Three Abstraction Levels
2006
This paper presents a process model for the management of architectural decisions in enterprise architecture planning. First, decisions are made at the enterprise level, with strategic business considerations on the enterprise information, systems and technology strategy and governance issues. The next step is to define the domains, to then go on with domain architecture decisions. At the systems level, the enterprise and domain architecture decisions are collected and converted into architecture descriptions accurate in precision, form and detail to be given as input to the information systems development process, following the architectural planning. The model is derived from previous wor…

Publiskas personas kapitālsabiedrības padomes institūcijas loma, uzdevumi, to izpratne un problemātika.
2022
Publiskas personas kapitālsabiedrības jeb visbiežāk valstij piederoši uzņēmumi veido ievērojamu daļu Latvijas tautsaimniecības aktīvu, kā arī nodrošina valstij būtisku funkciju veikšanu un infrastruktūras uzturēšanu. Šīm kapitālsabiedrībām ir liela atbildība, tādēļ nepieciešama arī rūpīga uzraudzība, ko īsteno kapitālsabiedrību padomes. Publiskas personas kapitāla daļu un kapitālsabiedrību pārvaldības likums, kas veidots, balstoties uz Ekonomiskās sadarbības un attīstības organizācijas Vadlīnijām valstij piederošu uzņēmumu korporatīvajai pārvaldībai, nosaka uzdevumus, kādi veicami kapitālsabiedrību padomēm. Tomēr ne visi šajā likumā aptvertie uzdevumi ir vienlīdz skaidri. Daļa no tiem ir at…
Foucault and the birth of psychopolitics : Towards a genealogy of crisis governance
2020
The article contributes to the genealogy of current tendencies in crisis governance by reconstructing Michel Foucault’s analysis of the application of the notion of crisis in 19th-century psychiatry. This analysis complements and corrects Reinhart Koselleck’s history that viewed crisis as originally a medical, judicial or theological concept that was transferred to the political domain in the 18th century. In contrast, Foucault highlights how the psychiatric application of the concept of crisis was itself political, conditioned by the disciplinary power of the psychiatrist. Unlike the ancient medical concept of crisis that emphasized the doctor’s judgement in observing the event of truth i…
Finnish cultural policy as public funding: Regime view across policy domains
2022
Public funding is a key part of Nordic cultural policy. This article approaches the Finnish cultural policy regime from the perspective of state funding, which can be seen as a direct demonstration of public cultural policy. We perform an empirical investigation of the state funding for cultural activities using budget data from 2019 supplemented with information given by altogether 53 public officials representing Finnish ministries. Thus, we examine Finnish cultural policy as a public policy through the different governmental policy domains that support and govern artistic and cultural activities with public finances. Cultural support is investigated as a substantive policy aspect of diff…
E-Government Implementation: Transparency, Accessibility and Usability of Government Websites
2017
In several European countries decentralization has promoted the creation of Regional Governments (RGs) with high levels of competence and responsibilities, such as promoting good governance and sustainability. Information and communication technologies (ICTs), and hence, the adoption of e-government has contributed to the adoption and dissemination of government transparency in a usable and accessible way. In this chapter, we study the transparency, accessibility and usability of websites of Spanish RGs.

Adaptive forest governance to face land use change impacts in Italy: a review
2015
Il cambiamento dell’uso del suolo è uno dei driver principali della riduzione della resilienza ecosistemica, così come della perdita di biodiversità e approvvigionamento di servizi. Rappresenta una sfida peculiare, specialmente negli ambienti mediterranei, dove i fenomeni di abbandono e ricolonizzazione naturale stanno minacciando in modo sempre più crescente la capacità delle foreste di fornire benefici alle comunità locali. In queste condizioni, il sistema di governance forestale è chiamato a bilanciare gli impatti del cambiamento dell’uso del suolo con l’assicurazione della salute e della stabilità degli ecosistemi forestali, al fine di garantire la sostenibilità a lungo termine degli am…
