Fogyasztási szokások és trendek vizsgálata Európában és az USA-ban

A tanulmány célja, hogy bemutassa milyen fogyasztási szerkezettel rendelkeznek a európai kontinens országai, különös tekintettel a nyugat- és közép-kelet-európai fogyasztási mintákra és szokásokra vonatkozóan. A tanulmány elemzi az EU-15 és EU-10 országainak fogyasztási szerkezetét, kiemelve azokat a szektorokat, ahol nagymértékű átrendeződés illetve környezeti hatásjellemző. Részletesebben megvizsgáljuk a közép-európai fogyasztási szokásokat, majd a tanulmány befejező részében a magyar háztartások fogyasztási szokásait is elemezzük, valamint a megfigyelhető fogyasztási trendeket és azok jövőbeli lehetőségeit. Ahhoz, hogy a nemzetközi kontextusban értékeljük az európai fogyasztási mintákat az Egyesült Államok fogyasztási szerkezetét is röviden megvizsgáljuk.

Munkahelyi motivációk Magyarországon 2013-ban (Workplace motivations in Hungary in 2013)

A motiváció szerepe a szervezetek életében alapvető fontossággal bír. A tanulmány egy friss reprezentatív kutatás eredményeit mutatja be, amelyet a szerzők a magyar munkavállalók körében végeztek annak érdekében, hogy feltárják a hazai motivációs viszonyokat és a munkavállalók számára legfontosabb tényezőket. A korábbi évek felmérései szerint a legfontosabb hazai motivációs tényezők a versenyképes fizetés, a cafeteria, a karrierlehetőség és az előrelépési lehetőségek voltak. A kutatás bizonyította, hogy az elmúlt időszakban átrendeződés figyelhető meg, egyre inkább előtérbe kerülnek olyan tényezők, amelyek a biztonsággal, a stabilitással, a jó munkahelyi légkörrel és a megfelelő kapcsolatokkal függnek össze. A szerzők megvizsgálták egy francia motivációs modell lehetséges magyarországi alkalmazását is, amelynek során szintén megmutatkoztak a magyar sajátosságok. A modell elemei közül bizonyos területek fontosabbak a hazai munkavállalók számára. A modell hazai adaptációja színesítheti a hazai motivációs megoldások kínálatát. ______ Motivation has an essential role in the operation of the organisations. The study represents the results of a recent representative research which was conducted by the authors among Hungarian workers. The aim was to explore the domestic motivational relations and the key motivational factors of employees. According to the surveys of previous years the main Hungarian motivating factors were competitive salary, cafeteria, career opportunities and advancement opportunities. The research has proved that rearrangement could be observed in the last period. Those factors have increasingly come to the forefronts which are related to safety, stability, appropriate work environment and appropriate employee relations. The authors have examined the possible domestic application of a French motivational model, besides the Hungarian specialties were also reflected. Some elements of the model are more important than the others for domestic workers. The adaptation of the model could make the domestic motivational solution offerings more relevant and manifold.

Are critically endangered fish back on the menu? Analysis of U.K. fisheries data suggest post-ban landings of prohibited skates in European waters

Skates (Rajidae) have been commercially exploited in Europe for hundreds of years with some species’ abundances declining dramatically during the twentieth century. In 2009 it became “prohibited for EU vessels to target, retain, tranship or land” certain species in some ICES areas, including the critically endangered common skate and the endangered white skate. To examine compliance with skate bans the official UK landings data for 2011–2014 were analysed. Surprisingly, it was found that after the ban prohibited species were still reported landed in UK ports, including 9.6 t of common skate during 2011–2014. The majority of reported landings of common and white skate were from northern UK waters and landed into northern UK ports. Although past landings could not be validated as being actual prohibited species, the landings’ patterns found reflect known abundance distributions that suggest actual landings were made, rather than sporadic occurrence across ports that would be evident if landings were solely due to systematic misidentification or data entry errors. Nevertheless, misreporting and data entry errors could not be discounted as factors contributing to the recorded landings of prohibited species. These findings raise questions about the efficacy of current systems to police skate landings to ensure prohibited species remain protected. By identifying UK ports with the highest apparent landings of prohibited species and those still landing species grouped as'skates and rays’, these results may aid authorities in allocating limited resources more effectively to reduce landings, misreporting and data errors of prohibited species, and increase species-specific landing compliance.

Plan estratégico de la empresa de distribución Gas Natural BAN S.A. período 2008-2010

El trabajo de investigación está centrado en la elaboración del planeamiento estratégico para la empresa de distribución de Gas Natural Buenos Aires Norte (GASBAN), ubicada en la zona norte de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, que cuenta principalmente con consumidores residenciales de bajos ingresos económicos. La situación en la que se encuentra la empresa, estados económicos-financieros agonizantes, el escenario económico, político y social decreciente del país para los siguientes años y la reducción de ingresos por ventas y servicios, obligaban a GASBAN a diseñar un nuevo plan estratégico para los siguientes 3 años.

Is a 24 hour ban such a bad thing?

A key element in Australian policing in recent years is the growth of police-imposed discretionary summary justice. The rise and impact of on-the-spot fines, infringement notices, exclusion orders and move-on powers enable police-initiated resolutions and punishments to be imposed, often without legal or judicial intervention. These operational policing mechanisms reflect underlying pressures to reduce costs, ease the burden on the court system, and speed up the decision-making process, but when viewed from a human rights perspective the potential consequences are significant. Focusing on the legislative development of banning notices in Victoria, this article highlights the impact of such a police-imposed punishment upon individual due process procedural protections. Banning notices deny the recipient the right to conduct a defence, undermine the presumption of innocence, and conflate notions of pre-emption and punishment. The rhetoric upon which the banning notice legislation is predicated obviates meaningful scrutiny of the diminution of individual rights that are implicit in its enactment. A perceived ‘need’ to control disorder and ‘re-balance’ justice to prioritise community protection is used to legitimise any consequential impact upon the principles of criminal law, due process and human rights.
