Nuevas perspectivas de análisis para entender la migración cualificada del sur de Europa hacia México
2018
This article focuses on skilled migration flows from Southern Europe into Mexico. From semi-structured interviews with Spanish and Italian immigrants living in four Mexican cities of Mexico, it addresses both reasons for immigration and labour incorporation in Mexican labour markets. Specifically, it explores: i) the role of the economic crisis and the lack of good employment in the countries of origin as a key factor when deciding an international migration; ii) the employment opportunities offered in Mexican labour markets for the highly-skilled immigrants, and iii) the role played by the Mexican state and its current immigration law when channelling this group into the labour market

BUSINESS CYCLE SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN ROMANIA AND THE EURO AREA. A FRESH LOOK IN VIEW OF THE RECENT CRISIS
2012
This paper examines the degree of business cycles synchronization between Romania and the Euro area, by using Germany as a benchmark for the area economic cycle. The period of the study is 2000 - 2011, with a special emphasis on the recent economic and financial crisis. Using the Hodrick-Prescott filter, we find important, but decreasing correlations in times of crisis in the level of GDP. Furthermore, the analysis by GDP components reveals that private consumption remains the least correlated with the Euro area, while foreign trade is highly correlated and its synchronization even increased during the recent crisis.
How viable are spanish credit cooperatives after recent bank capitalization and restructuring regulations?
2011
Over the past three years, major reforms have been approved in Spain in order to restructure the banking sector. The purpose of these reforms has been to reinforce the solvency of credit institutions through recapitalization and integration into larger organizations. The credit cooperatives have not presented any solvency problems which would justify these measures being applied to them. The problem that the financial authorities see in their case is their limited size. As a result, the credit cooperatives are immersed in an integration process which is not revolving around the Banco Cooperativo Español (BCE) or the Spanish Association of Rural Savings Banks, as might be expected, but is ta…
STRATEGIC ROLE OF ACTIVITY IN THE EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF A COMPANY FROM THE SME SECTOR IN THE ERA OF GLOBAL CRISIS
2012
The year 2009 ended in Poland and other EU countries under the sign of the Great Depression, which began on the other side of the ocean but it covered almost the whole world. The most vulnerable to the crisis turned out to be companies from the SME sector which, in the European Union SMEs represent 99.8% companies operating within the Union, and their sales account for about 56.2% total revenues. EU small and medium-sized companies employ more than 66% workforce and they are the ones most heavily affected by the crisis. In Poland the company from the SME sector accounts for over 90% of all businesses operating in our country. And they were faced in front of the huge challenge which was how …
The Crises Management faced with new Challenges
2008
We witness an economic crisis without precedent that affects every area of our existence, rich and poor, at a global scale. The noise of financial crisis makes us no longer perceive other crises, which no one seems ready to accept them, namely a crisis of values that proliferate in our society. The experience of the past crises shows that the recession affecting mainly local companies, multinational companies managed to make profits during hard times for the economy of the host country, and the management is put in front of new challenges.
CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF THE 2008-2009 INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL CRISIS
2012
The paper investigates the current crisis and its major consequences in a shifting world. Originated from the USA, the crisis spread in the world and disturbed its power distribution. The emerging countries development of the last two decades illustrates the catching-up process. The findings also confirm the increased role of the Chinese economy today. The Chinese growth in comparison with the USA economic path is a mirror for the future world architecture. The consequences of the international financial crisis are focused on the fact that the developed countries will lose gradually their privileges in the shifting of economic power.
SOME REFLECTIONS CONCERNING THE CURRENT FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEMS OF ROMANIA
2012
We address these issues, which we consider fundamental for Romania and not only, in a time when the impact of the economic crisis and of the IMF loan are far from being shaped conceptually and pragmatically, as solutions.We, unfortunately alone, express the view that this devastating phenomenon - the crisis - has two distinct components: a real one, induced by the errors that were made, especially in the banking system and a psychological one of fear, of the disorder, the arbitrary restriction of activity, etc., therefore generated out of ignorance, which in our opinion has the largest impact.Regarding the IMF loan, we want to warn that any borrowing for consumption has dramatic consequence…
Developing a Conceptual Framework for Investigating Communication Supporting Community Resilience
2015
In crisis management, cooperation within the response network is seen as crucial. Usually, this network refers to authorities and nongovernmental organizations, such as the Red Cross. However, the authors argue that to improve societal resilience one should take a broader overview of the actors involved in crisis preparedness and mitigation, and also include the public. With this in mind, the role of communication is scrutinized and a conceptual framework developed as a starting point for further investigation into how communication may be developed to strengthen a community approach to crisis management that includes citizen groups in the broader response network. A model is presented alon…
Crisis preparedness through co-operation between municipalities and non-governmental organizations
2016
Julkissektorin toimijoiden kriisiviestintä ja kriisijohtaminen eroavat yksityisten toimijoiden vastaavasta viestinnästä, koska julkisen sektorin organisaatioilla on lakisääteinen velvollisuus pelastaa kansalaisia hädässä. Useissa kriisiviestinnän tutkimuksissa on keskitytty tutkimaan kriisejä organisaation tai johtamisen näkökulmasta. Tämän opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli tutkia kriisiin varautumista kuntien ja vapaaehtoisjärjestöjen yhteistyön näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen tausta on haettu CERC-mallista ja kriisiviestinnän tuloskortista (Crisis Communication Scorecard. Kriisiviestinnän tuloskortti on kehitetty ja testattu parantamaan kriisiviestinnän laatua ja samanaikaisesti kehitt…
