Geographically representative scholarship and internationalization in school and educational psychology: A bibliometric analysis of eight journals fr…

2018

Abstract Although the discipline of school and educational psychology is arguably international (e.g., relevant research and practice is evident in more than 80 countries), there has been limited research examining the international scholarship published in school and educational psychology journals. Such an assessment is important because it provides one important metric for better understanding the field's level of internationalization. The purpose of this study was to evaluate every article (N = 4456) published from 2002 to 2016 across eight school and educational psychology journals that publish international scholarship. Each article's authorship and participant data were coded and rep…

Rewards, changes and challenges in the role of primary headteachers/principals in England and Finland

2012

Drawing on an analysis of education policies and qualitative research data, the impact of education reform on the roles of English primary headteachers and their Finnish counterparts is examined and compared. Global forces have resulted in similar policy trends in both countries but owing to contrasting cultural values and education traditions there are marked differences in the mechanisms for change at both national and local levels. However, irrespective of globalisation and differing national contexts, there were considerable similarities in the perspectives of headteachers and principals on the rewards and constraints of their role and the realities of leadership and management.

Web engineering and multi-criterion analisys of modeling languages used in production systems

2010

Abstract Economic globalization and strong, unprecedented, industrial competition, the overwhelming influence of information and communication technology, the Internet and its most important service, i.e. the World Wide Web have an undisputed impact upon all enterprises, exerting a strong influence on the competition system, the accelerated development of new products and services through reducing the development time of the product life cycle, as well as the improvement of upstream and downstream communication with suppliers and customers. Within this framework, taking into account the decline in worldwide economy, especially during the past few years, this paper aims to proposing a new so…

Which Test Artifacts Testing Service Providers should Reuse and How? Experiences from a Case Study in the Chinese ICT Sourcing Market

2011

Software testing service providers are facing new requirements to shorten service times, lower costs, and increase service customization and quality. Reuse of test artifacts is a possible solution that can help providers to meet the requirements because reuse can improve software quality and productivity. However, the extant literature does not explain in depth which test artifacts should be reused and how. This paper focuses on ICT-enabled sourcing of software testing services in the Chinese market to identify the most important reusable test artifacts. There are two reasons for this research. First, most Chinese service providers are small or medium-sized and have to overcome obstacles su…

Small towns between Globalization and Sustainability

2011

I piccoli centri urbani rappresentano una frazione significativa della popolazione totale in molte regioni del mondo. Molti di questi centri hanno subito modifiche in seno alla loro economia e tipologia a causa della globalizzazione e dei cambiamenti economici del mondo avvenuti già nella metà del ventesimo secolo. L’economia locale indipendente delle piccole città, che è stata assorbita dall’economia globale, ha determinato la perdita delle identità locali e la loro stessa qualità di vita. In tale ragione risiede l’importanza di una progettazione urbana sostenibile - intesa come l’interazione tra economia, ambiente e benessere sociale – finalizzata a conservare i valori locali delle piccol…

Law and glocalization

2022

The chapter intends to analyze the existing relationship between, law, globalization and grobalization. Having briefly illustrated the key concepts of globalization and grobalization, in order to examine the above relationship the chapter analyzes first the concepts of hybridity, mixity and diffusion as used in comparative law, in order to determine to which extent the same concepts as used in legal sociology cannot create misunderstandings. After having clarified all the key elements for the analysis, then the chapter focuses on how globalization and grobalization intersect with law, putting forward some related examples. The chapter ends with some conclusive remarks.

Il sostegno alle imprese

2021

Il capitolo indaga il variegato e complesso sistema del sostegno pubblico alle imprese. In questa ottica, innanzitutto si prende in considerazione l’impatto delle crisi economiche sulle politiche di ausilio pubblico alle attività produttive. Successivamente si descrivono gli elementi di contesto con cui le politiche di incentivazione dei poteri pubblici devono fare i conti, ossia le sfide della globalizzazione economica e il quadro di regolazione dell’Unione europea, con il ruolo preminente che può essere svolto dagli istituti nazionali di promozione. Si analizzano, poi, le agevolazioni per la creazione di imprese e i meccanismi e le procedure per facilitare l’imprenditorialità nei territor…

Sovranità tributaria, territorialità dell’imposizione e mercato globale : una sfida ancora aperta

2019

L’articolo muove da una preliminare - quanto breve - analisi del pensiero storico-filosofico che ha condotto allo sviluppo del concetto di sovranità a cavallo fra i secoli XVII, XVIII e parte del XIX, allo scopo di individuare un possibile elemento identitario della sovranità tributaria come declinazione del concetto più generale di sovranità. Si analizza, poi, l’evoluzione della sovranità fiscale nelle costituzioni successive alla seconda guerra mondiale, con particolare riferimento a quella italiana, e si giunge alla conclusione che si tratta di una sovranità “indirizzata” dal rispetto di diritti fondamentali garantiti da quelle costituzioni. Si analizza successivamente il rapporto fra so…
