Giustizia ambientale e recupero delle aree verdi: il caso di Palermo

2021

L’urban shrinkage è diventata una questione centrale tanto nel dibattito scientifico quanto nell’agenda politica di diverse città europee. Secondo i dati EUROSTAT (2019), circa il 40% delle città europee con più di 200.000 abitanti stanno perdendo popolazione; una contrazione che si esplicita maggiormente, sotto il profilo spaziale, in una progressiva sottoutilizzazione del patrimonio edificato, così come nel contestuale incremento di aree e terreni in stato di abbandono. In questo quadro controverso di mutazione strutturale della città, così come l’abbiamo conosciuta, le politiche urbane alla prova in Europa tentano di declinare la decrescita quale occasione strategica di investimento sull…

Urban shrinkage became a central issue in both the scientific debate and the political agenda of several European cities. According to EUROSTAT data (2019) about 40% of European cities with more than 200000 inhabitants are losing population. A shrinkage that is more explicit in a progressive underutilization of the built heritage as well as in the concomitant increase of abandoned areas. In this controversial framework of structural mutation of the city urban policies in Europe try to decline the degrowth as a strategic opportunity to invest in green areas in order to increase urban quality and to act simultaneously on the development of local economies. With respect to the above framework this contribution focuses on the evaluation of the effects that the project of new public green spaces have generated on some sample areas on the outskirts of the city of Palermo. An urban context where according to the latest Svimez Report (2019) the phenomenon of urban shrinkage represents a constantly growing trend and on which the new Master Plan operates through a revival of interventions on environmental capital and urban green areas of the city.Settore ICAR/21 - Urbanistica

Kultūru attāluma ietekme uz ārvalstu tiešajām investīcijām Baltijas valstīs

2022

Bakalaura darba “Kultūru attāluma ietekme uz ārvalstu tiešajām investīcijām Baltijas valstīs” galvenais mērķis ir izpētīt kultūru attāluma ietekmi uz Baltijā ienākošo uzkrāto ārvalstu tiešo investīciju apjomu. Balstoties uz zinātnisko literatūru, ir aprakstīta ārvalstu tiešo investīciju būtība, to lokāciju noteicošie faktori, kā arī apzināta kultūru attāluma ietekme uz ārvalstu tiešajām investīcijām, izmantojot G. Hofstedes kultūru vērtību modeļa sešas dimensijas. Balstoties uz statistikas datiem, ir analizēta ārvalstu tiešo investīciju situācija Baltijas valstīs, kā arī pēc pielāgota ekonometriskā modeļa veiktas vairākas regresijas analīzes, nosakot kultūru attāluma ietekmi uz Baltijā ienā…

Uzturēšanās atļaujas pret investīcijām Latvijā: to iespējas un riski

2015

Šajā darbā tiek apskatīti iespējamie riski un iespējas, kādas Latvijas Republika, kā valsts spētu iegūt vai zaudēt, pilnvērtīgi izmantojot termiņuzturēšanās atļauju politiku. Par piemēru ņemot citas Eiropas Savienības dalībvalstis un Kanādu, kuras izmanto šāda tipa programmas, investīciju piesaistei. Darbā galvenais uzsvars tiek likts uz esošās situācijas novērtējumu un potenciālo risku un ieguvumu novērtēšanu. Tādejādi gūstot plašāku skatījumu vai šāda programma ir nepieciešama un tā spēj nest labumu valsts ekonomikai, vai šāda programma var radīt draudus valsts suverenitātei, valstī dzīvojošajiem iedzīvotājiem vai valsts ekonomikai un nekustamo īpašumu tirgum. Pētījuma mērķi: esošās situā…

Fuzzy Investment Portfolio Selection Models Based on Interval Analysis Approach

2012

Published version of an article from the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher:http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2012/628295 This paper employs fuzzy set theory to solve the unintuitive problem of the Markowitz mean-variance (MV) portfolio model and extend it to a fuzzy investment portfolio selection model. Our model establishes intervals for expected returns and risk preference, which can take into account investors' different investment appetite and thus can find the optimal resolution for each interval. In the empirical part, we test this model in Chinese stocks investment and find that this model can fulfill different kinds of investors' objectives. Fi…

A study of language effects on inward FDI flows in Southeast Asia

2019

Master's thesis Business Administration BE501 - University of Agder 2019 This master thesis explores how language might affectthe yearly flow of foreign direct investment (FDI) towards five Southeast Asian countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. This is aresearch area that has been quite unexplored, and we find it interesting to put forward some hypotheses to observe if there exist such effects or not. By using multiple regression analysison a relevant dataset, three main hypothesesare tested:•Countries in which a global language holds an official status will contribute more FDI than other countries.•Countries that share a global language with a FDI recipient co…

Lending Crowdfunding : Principles and Market Development

2020

AbstractCrowdlending has emerged as the leading form of crowdfunding in terms of scope and scale. For lenders, it offers new investment opportunities, often offering better returns than some alternative investment channels, as well as opening to incorporate new small-scale investors that have not enjoyed such opportunities before. For borrowers, it offers new channels to access credit, often either offered at better terms or by including groups that have previously been marginalized and underserved by traditional credit service providers. In the current chapter we present the brief history of crowdlending, its diversity of models, the current state or the industry, as well as the underlying…
