Battered Women: Victims or Survivors?

2011

AbstractFrom 1970, research into women’s responses to marital violence became much more intense than ever before. Academic literature emphasizes two explanatory perspectives: of the woman as passive victim and of the woman who uses strategies to protect herself. The main goals of this study were to explore the effectiveness of personal strategies that women use to survive violence, the factors that influence the recurrence of violence, and the demand for shelter and the role of shelters in the process of recovery and healing. We interviewed eight battered women, from rural areas, all of whom had taken refuge in shelters, some of them several time. We identified a number of psychopathologica…

Opakowania z biotworzyw –przyszłość? Czy w przyszłości nowy problem środowiskowy?

2020

Problem odpadów opakowaniowych z tworzyw sztucznych wciąż wymaga poszukiwania skutecznych rozwiązań. W artykule przedstawiono wytyczne Komisji Europejskie z marca 2019 roku w zakresie działań ograniczających składowanie zużytych opakowań na wysypiskach śmieci. Najwięcej uwagi poświęcono biotworzywom, stosowanym w produkcji opakowań, które -zgodnie z zapewnieniami ich producentów –mogą być składowane z odpadami organicznymi i ulegać wraz z nimi procesom biodegradacji lub kompostowania. Dzięki temu ich stosowanie mogłaby istotnie wpłynąć na zmniejszenie ilości odpadów opakowaniowych odprowadzanych na składowiska śmieci, jak równieżprzyczynić się do nie zalegania ich wśrodowisku naturalnym tak…

Dourges : projet d'extension de la plateforme multimodale Delta 3 : rapport de diagnostic

2014

Le diagnostic archéologique réalisé en amont de l'extension de la plateforme Delta 3 a permis de compléter et d'approfondir les connaissances concernant le territoire de Dourges. Les vestiges mis au jour couvrent plusieurs millénaires et concernent les périodes protohistoriques (âge du Bronze et Hallstatt) et historiques (de l'Antiquité jusqu'à l'époque moderne). Pour les périodes protohistoriques, il s'agit d'éléments épars qui ne semblent pas constituer à proprement parler un site. Cependant, des signes ténus d'occupation sont avérés dans ce secteur dés l'âge du Bronze ainsi que durant le premier âge du Fer. L'absence de vestiges de certaines périodes, particulièrement celles du second âg…

On the origin and diversification of Podolian cattle breeds: testing scenarios of European colonization using genome-wide SNP data

2021

AbstractBackgroundDuring the Neolithic expansion, cattle accompanied humans and spread from their domestication centres to colonize the ancient world. In addition, European cattle occasionally intermingled with both indicine cattle and local aurochs resulting in an exclusive pattern of genetic diversity. Among the most ancient European cattle are breeds that belong to the so-called Podolian trunk, the history of which is still not well established. Here, we used genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data on 806 individuals belonging to 36 breeds to reconstruct the origin and diversification of Podolian cattle and to provide a reliable scenario of the European colonization, throug…

Gender, Care, and the Normalization of Violence: Similarities between Occupational Violence and Intimate Partner Violence in Finland

2007

According to the statistics, violence against women is quite common in Finland, particularly in partner relationships and in care work. The present article looks at the similarities in the ways in which victims of occupational violence in care work and victims of intimate partner violence understand their experiences of violence. The commonalities among interpersonal relations are highlighted in order to offer new insights to the analysis of gender in research on occupational violence. Drawing on empirical data and research literature on the experiences of violence of Finnish women, this article suggests that minimization, naturalization and legitimization of the encountered violence is typ…

Evils of the Istanbul Convention. Discourse analysis of Latvian press publications (2016) = Los efectos negativos del Convenio de Estambul. Análisis …

2018

  Abstract. The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence caused heated discussion both in society and media in Latvia. The controversy was caused because Convention is based on the understanding that violence against women is a form of gender-based violence that is committed against women because they are women. The discussion showed that there are various interpretations and misinterpretations of gender as a concept. As well as hostility towards gender equality interpreted as a propaganda against so called traditional family values. The mass media play an important role in shaping of public thought.The mass media today are the ma…

The Importance of Creative Services Firms in Explaining the Wealth of European Regions

2013

This chapter shows the important impact that a specific set of services, those belonging to the creative industries, have on regional economic development and wealth generation. Creative industries are a set of knowledge-based activities focused on the generation of meaning, contents and aesthetic attributes through the use of creativity, skill and talent, and have the potential to create wealth from trade and intellectual property rights. A key hypothesis in this paper is that creative services firms are a “growth driver” that promotes wealth in the regions where they are located. This is due to the fact that firms in creative industries introduce new ideas that are subsequently transferre…

Which innovation strategy do internationalised firms follow?: evidence from Spain

2016

This paper compares the innovation strategy of internationalised firms, foreign-owned subsidiaries and domestic exporters, relative to firms that serve the domestic market only. The analysis is performed on a sample of manufacturing Spanish firms over the period 2006-2011. We not only focus on different forms of innovation, distinguishing between imitation and pioneer innovation, but also on the heterogeneity of exporters and foreign-owned firms. We find that foreign-owned firms and domestic exporters (excluding those serving only the EU market) are more likely to introduce market novelties ahead of competitors in low-tech sectors and, to a lesser extent, imitate more than local firms.
