"Corporate governance": approcci manageriali ed etici a confronto
2009
La crisi di fiducia che colpì il sistema delle imprese statunitense nei primi anni '70 ha promosso l'elaborazione di due distinte concezioni della corporate governance. La prima ha come referente privilegiato azionisti ed investitori ed elegge il mercato (azionario) come lo strumento principale per il governo dell'impresa. L'obiettivo di tale concezione è quello di riportare il management aziendale sotto il controllo degli azionisti. La seconda cerca invece di identificare una prospettiva che tiene nella dovuta considerazione preferenze, bisogni e diritti di tutti gli stakeholders coinvolti nel processo produttivo. Riprendendo la distinzione proposta da Hirschman, possiamo dire che mentre l…
Consultare per valutare
2020
Questo capitolo esamina la consultazione all'interno del processo di policy, presentandone le caratteristiche generali. Vengono trattate nello specifico alcune tecniche di consultazione, evidenziando per ciascuna di esse i punti di forza e di debolezza definiti anche sulla base degli obiettivi conoscitivi che ci si propone di raggiungere e indicando un percorso alquanto pragmatico e operativo. This chapter examines the consultation within the policy process, presenting its general characteristics. Specific consultation techniques are dealt with, highlighting for each of them the strengths and weaknesses defined also on the basis of the cognitive objectives that we intend to achieve and indi…
Corporate Governance of Banks after the Financial Crisis - Theory, Evidence, Reforms
2010
Poor corporate governance of banks has increasingly been acknowledged as an important cause of the recent financial crisis. Given the developments since the Asian financial crisis in 1997, this fact is not readily to be explained. Listed banks and even non-listed firms worldwide have publicly emphasized that good corporate governance is of vital concern for the company, and have adopted firm-specific corporate governance codices. Moreover, banking supervisors have taken up the issue. In particular, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has already published two editions of a guideline entitled “Enhancing corporate governance for banking organisations” which perfectly reflects the super…
Municipal Integrated Coastal Management Facilitation in Latvia: Piloting Public Multi-Thematical Monitoring
2021
This paper contains a pilot study on coastal values and potential means of determining and characterising them in the terms of coastal planning and management. The research case study took place in the coastal region of North East Latvia – in the municipality of Salacgriva. The municipality coast is very diverse: coastal access, landscape and the whole biogeography is changing very much along the whole 54 km, being also rich in various natural and cultural heritage assets. Such great coastal variety in the limits of one administrative territory does require very selective governance approaches and dynamic management to be realized by local administration, which has very limited necessary ca…
The Role of Internal and External Stakeholders
2015
The importance attributed to stakeholder issues in contemporary higher education affairs across the globe is a reflection of the changing nature of the social pact between higher education and society, brokered via the state, with new notions of trust and accountability as well as responsiveness to societal needs and demands as key attributes. This chapter takes stock of the key findings across the BRICS as per the individual contributions presented in part III of this volume.
Stakeholder theory for the E -government context: Framing a value-oriented normative core
2018
Despite substantial investments in ICT in the public sector over the past decades, it has been hard to achieve consistent benefits. One reason for the difficulties is the gap between the expectations of key stakeholders (such as governments, businesses and citizens) and project outcomes. Though normative, descriptive and instrumental aspects of stakeholder theory have been influential in explaining stakeholder interests and relationships in the management field, e-Government researchers have rather neglected the normative core of the theory. We show how value theory can improve normative foundations in this area to provide a focused analysis of four e-Government projects. We use a multiple …
Shifting to climate change aware cities to facilitate the city resilience implementation
2020
Abstract Climate change (CC) is one of the most urgent threats to modern societies, having direct and indirect consequences on the rapid growth of urban areas. Cities are attempting to both reduce their impact on the environment and build resilience to be able to face the irreversible effects of CC through plans and strategies. However, barriers, such as the fact that cities are complex systems and the uncertainty posed by CC have led to less engaged and committed city stakeholders, which have hampered the operationalisation of city resilience. In this context, developing city stakeholders awareness has been demonstrated to be an effective way to put an end to passive behaviour and help tra…
Stakeholders' Perceptions about Fire Impacts on Lithuanian Protected Areas
2016
The aim of this work is to study Lithuanian stakeholders' perceptions of fire impacts in protected areas. For this study, the stakeholders consisted of foresters, ecologists and farmers.

The results showed that stakeholders in general think that fire is not a threat to Lithuania and to the ecological processes in the protected areas. However, they ag…
