Decoding the XXI Century’s Marketing Shift: An Agency Theory Framework

2016

Since the beginning of the XXI century, marketing theory has moved through a series of epistemological shifts from modern positivism to postmodern constructivism. This has resulted in a series of changes to the main concepts of “traditional” marketing such as: market, product, customer, and value. These shifts can be better viewed under a social cybernetics approach such as agency theory. This is because there is now a view that the linear concept of value creation needs to give way to the more complex process of value cocreation, where value is created collectively. Agency theory is one approach that is able to shed light on how customers and providers are able to recursively create collec…

Entering post-otaku : approaching the Internet era in the light of otaku

2014

This thesis raises a hypothesis that we have entered the Post- Otaku era. In order to prove this hypothesis, a survey has been conducted in which 30 participants gave answers regarding their Internet habits. It is said that each time when science and technology make one step forward, it increases the capacity of our organs. Compared with the impact of the industrial revolution on human beings, the influence of Internet technology seems far more tremendous as the former extends the power of our limbs while the latter enhances the competence of our brain. The significance of the present study is trying to explore the unknown future in the light of the Otaku phenomenon which is something havin…

Problems of Interpreting Literary Work at School

2015

Integration in the global world that has rapidly been happening during the independence years in Latvia has brought about many benefits in the field of education but has also created numerous problems. It has aggravated the postmodern situation which in the context of literature teaching/learning has manifested itself as decrease of learners’ reading interests and skills. In didactics of the Latvian literature, the approach to interpretation of a literary work designed in the 19th and 20th has enriched with various theoretical and methodological sources from the West. It raised the necessity to develop awareness of these theories in the cultural and historical context and draw the conclusio…

Ubiqüitat de la ironia o, si més no, alguns dels seus usos entre els poetes actuals

2006

The incidence of irony in the genre of lyric poetry has caused some special effects, mainly after modernity turned this disposition of thought into an irreplaceable element when, thanks to the contribution of the Romantic poet Friedrich Schlegel, complicities between poets and readers were stipulated. The present article tries to evaluate the validity of these presuppositions by studying the use of ironic procedures in the poetic texts of a number of authors of great importance now. The relevance of the authors analyzed is justified not only by the poets’ relation to an absolute diversity of styles and programs, but also, by the fact that it is able to represent all the literary generations…

Ewolucja ludzkości według Hoene-Wrońskiego

2017

The aim of this article is to recall and, at the same time, to update, the theory of the evolution of humanity by Josef Hoëné-Wronski. I am trying to show that the author of Metapolitics (Métapolitique messianique) and of other philosophical and mathematical works was much ahead of his contemporaries concerning his ideas about evolution and these ideas, although expressed in a somewhat archaic and obscure language, are still valid for us today. Hoëné-Wronski has boldly challenged the deterministic picture of the world emerging from modern science and has derived human evolution from the moral and rational development of human beings. He divided it into seven stages. My interpretation of Hoë…
