Análisis de la exclusividad del objeto social de las compañías de transporte en el Ecuador

El presente trabajo trata sobre la exclusividad del objeto social con el que deben contar las compañías de transporte terrestre en el Ecuador al momento de prestar un servicio, cuyo estudio se realiza desde el Derecho Administrativo estableciendo conceptos de los distintos actos jurídicos en los que se ven involucrados el Estado, los particulares y la ciudadanía. Al hablar del transporte como servicio público, es necesario reconocer que existen organismos de control, planificación y regulación como es el caso de la Agencia Nacional de Tránsito, reconociendo también las competencias que actualmente tienen los Gobiernos Autónomos Descentralizados Regionales, Municipales o Metropolitanos. Además, las operadoras de tránsito para su funcionamiento en cualquiera de sus clases y tipos deben cumplir con requisitos exigidos por la Ley Orgánica de Tránsito y Transporte Terrestre y Seguridad Vial, reglamentos, resoluciones y ordenanzas; en este sentido se analiza el proceso que las operadoras deben realizar para su constitución, operación y contratación. Finalmente se realiza el análisis del caso de la operadora TRANSUPERAM S.A., compañía de transporte mixto que contando con un objeto social exclusivo, realizó el procedimiento correspondiente para su constitución y operación, sin embargo debido a la exclusividad del servicio que la empresa pretende brindar siendo este al sector público, hasta el momento no se otorga el permiso de operación ya que su objeto social debe mantener iguales condiciones que otras operadoras de transporte comercial mixto, entre otras consideraciones basadas en informes técnicos jurídicos, económicos e incluso de la intervención de la Agencia Nacional de Tránsito.

Understanding the Impact of the Property Tax Appeal Process on Assessment Uniformity: Procedures, Structures, and Outcomes

Property taxes serve as a vital revenue source for local governments. The revenues derived from the property tax function as the primary funding source for a variety of critical local public service systems. Property tax appeal systems serve as quasi-administrative-judicial mechanisms intended to assure the public that property tax assessments are correct, fair, and equitable. Despite these important functions, there is a paucity of empirical research related to property tax appeal systems. This study contributes to property tax literature by identifying who participates in the property tax appeal process and examining their motivations for participation. In addition, the study sought to determine whether patterns of use and success in appeal systems affected the distribution of the tax burden. Data were collected by means of a survey distributed to single-family property owners from two Florida counties. In addition, state and county documents were analyzed to determine appeal patterns and examine the impact on assessment uniformity, over a three-year period. The survey data provided contextual evidence that single-family property owners are not as troubled by property taxes as they are by the conduct of local government officials. The analyses of the decision to appeal indicated that more expensive properties and properties excluded from initial uniformity analyses were more likely to be appealed, while properties with homestead exemptions were less likely to be appealed. The value change analyses indicated that appeals are clustered in certain geographical areas; however, these areas do not always experience a greater percentage of the value changes. Interestingly, professional representation did not increase the probability of obtaining a reduction in value. Other relationships between the variables were discovered, but often with weak predictive ability. Findings from the assessment uniformity analyses were also interesting. The results indicated that the appeals mechanisms in both counties improved assessment uniformity. On average, appealed properties exhibited greater horizontal and vertical inequities, as compared to non-appealed properties, prior to the appeals process. After, the appeal process was completed; the indicators of horizontal and vertical equity were largely improved. However, there were some indications of regressivity in the final year of the study.

What next for unions in Central and Eastern Europe? Invisibility, departure and the transformation of industrial relations

This article examines union revitalization in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on two countries: Hungary and Latvia. Trade unions have not only had to cope with a declining membership base, but have also had to respond to austerity programmes and government cuts in public sector employment. We argue that the inability of unions to provide a strong voice for alternative policies to the current neoliberal orthodoxy has been driven by a declining membership base, but also by weakened social dialogue mechanisms, limited industrial representation and an ageing membership profile, exacerbated by net outward migration in recent years. However, we find that unions in Latvia and Hungary have responded differently to these issues.

Retaining formal volunteers in volunteer based organizations

The author in this study tries to address this particular issue of this drop out of formal volunteers. Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore the factors which helps in the retention of formal volunteers in a volunteer based organization for a longer period. Method The research in this paper is done in a qualitative way with primary data collected in the form of participant observation and open interview in two voluntary organizations. The collected data is analyzed in content analysis. The secondary data is collected in the form of necessary documents provided by the participating organizations. Results Many factors were found to influence retention of volunteers namely Job satisfaction, Motivation, Public Service Motivation, Organizational Commitment, Mission Attachment, Work load, Relationship with Coworkers, Justice of Organization, Flexible Timing, Training & Orientation.  Conclusions Recommendations to improve retention is mentioned and a future model is also proposed. The result obtained from this research can be generalized to other form of small scale volunteer organizations where the major employees are formal volunteers.
