Tourism policy innovations of an Indian state (Haryana)and their implications
Sharma, Chanchal Kumar
Z0 - General
Y9 - Other
Haryana was established in 1966 by getting carved out from the heart of the Indo-Gigantic
plains. Roughly the size of Belgium, Haryana has a track record of innovative tourism policies.Way back in '70s it was the first state to pioneer highway tourism. It went on to experiment with cultural and pilgrimage tourism in 80s and adventure and golf tourism in 90s and then farmhouse tourism at the turn of the century. While an emphasis on expanding markets for tourism is a praiseworthy move, devising strategies for promoting and protecting local culture, values, heritage, lifestyles and local natural resources and environments is also critical for sustenance of tourism. The paper looks at the socio-cultural dimensions of various tourism strategies adopted by
the state of Haryana, in order to underline the importance of ensuring effective planning and management for guaranteeing protection and preservation of cultural heritage, values, local environments and social well-being. It is thus a call for a mature response on part of the government for ensuring sustainable development of tourism. There is a need to develop a strategic framework involving coherent partnership between all the stakeholders, ensuring generation of foreign exchange without creating socio cultural and environmental problems and without having to exhaust assets which cannot be replaced.

Given that the process of adapting to the European Higher Education Area affects both the teaching-learning methodology as well as its assessment, this could be the perfect opportunity for teachers and students to take full advantage of ICT. This article presents a tool based on the Google Docs application that enables interaction with students, including taking online exams quickly and easily. The tool and has already been used successfully in the Introduction to Microeconomics in the Managerial Sciences Degree at the University of Valencia. The main advantage this tool offers in comparison with the Virtual Classroom is how easy it is to use and that it is not restricted to enrolled students.

The fact that the Bologna process involves significant changes in teaching and that teachers are alone in carrying out these changes, encouraged a group of professors from different Spanish universities to present the opportunity / need for professors to exchange views and experiences in teaching, as is done in the field of research. All of this took place at the Conferences on Teaching held in Granada. This article reviews the main results of this teaching experience.

The Mindanao conflict in Southern Philippines is a long-standing controversy that has eluded comprehensive solutions. Despite efforts of the Government of the Philippines (GRP) and the representatives from the peoples of Mindanao in undertaking peace initiatives, “the war:” continues.
The establishment of the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) as embodied in an organic law provided in the 1986 Philippine Constitution has not seemed to bring about the much-anticipated progress. Even with the so-called “autonomy” already in place to substantiate the clamor of the Muslims for self-rule in the Tripoli Agreement, conflict has escalated signifying unrest among the people.
Instead of dealing with the problem from the standpoint of an “outsider” who may know about the Mindanao conflict from what they hear, the study attempted to get a glimpse of “the war” from the “insiders” who have survived and lived to tell their own stories. From the perspectives of two distinct peoples of Sulu- the Christian and Muslim Joloanos, the study was able to penetrate the heart of conflict in Mindanao.
The study was able to visualize “the 1974 war” and the on-going conflicts from two cultural lenses and in the process was able to demonstrate a “parallel reality construction” among the war survivors who provided interesting insights of “the war” from their “fantasy themes”.
The research has not only surfaced conflicting notions in their revelations of “the war” as experienced (subjective realities) but has generated elements of “convergence” as their experiences were correlated with the institutionalized beliefs of war (objective realities) or the war as told. Despite distinct subjective realities, they have shown proclivity towards parallel perceptions.
The Joloano war survivors’ subjective realities as applied in the study include their psycho-social trauma of the war and their portrayal of the role of “the other” culture as co-survivors of war. Among the elderly, descriptions of their fears and negative emotions have strongly echoed “old prejudices”. Among the middle-aged, “prudence” and tact in their narratives revealed a tendency to rationalize and to show sympathy towards “the other” culture. From the young war survivors a propensity towards confronting their dilemma suggested optimism and resilience in their perceptions.
Transitions in the subjective realities of the war survivors are apparent across culture and age. Opposing views are very strong among the elderly except for one Christian and a Muslim who are associated with “the other” culture by reason of marriage with them. The older Christian Joloanos for instance believe that the war was “unnecessary” while the older Muslims were convinced it was “inevitable”. The study has strongly shown that “shifts” in perceptions could be anchored on the participants’ religious beliefs and changing circumstances that come with age, political set-up, economic climate and inter-marriage among others.
Their reactions towards the prevailing issues of war (media war issues, other concepts and beliefs of war) which constitute the institutionalized-objective realities as defined in the study are “convergent” despite distinct experiences and personal circumstances. They have for example generally shown disagreement towards the commonly held concept that the mass media function to crystallize relevant issues, like the war in Mindanao. The majority of the co-authors furthermore negated the belief of the general public that “Christians and Muslims can never co-exist peacefully, and that the 1974 war was a form of “jihad” or a religious war among Muslims.
In the study therefore, communication has been proven once again to play a vital role in clarifying issues of the Mindanao conflict. It performed an emancipatory role in ways that provided rhetorical and psychological relief by allowing an occasion for war survivors to deconstruct their realities through their narratives. And to reconstruct their meaning of war by actively taking part in correcting prevailing notions of war to bring about the much needed change in a war-torn community like Sulu.

This study was conducted to determine the relationship between the hemispheric dominance (HD) and the English proficiency (EP) scores in the four macro skills of the Western Mindanao State University college students. It hypothesized that students’ HD would have a significant correlation a) with their EP scores in listening, speaking, reading and writing, b) with their global EP score, c) with both the macro and global scores when respondents would be grouped according to age, gender and area of specialization.
In this study, there were 240 respondents selected through purposive, stratified, and random sampling techniques from the 5,096 students of the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Education. Using the standardized HD Test, the standardized Listening and Reading Comprehension Tests, the researcher-made Speaking and Writing Skill Tests and Cloze Test and employing mainly the Pearson r for the statistical analysis, the study concluded: 1) that most of the students of the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Education of Western Mindanao State University were left-brained (74.6%); 2) that the students were “good” in speaking, “fair” in listening and writing skills but “ poor” in reading and in global English; 3) that there was no significant relationship between the students’ hemisphericity and their EP scores in listening, speaking, reading, writing and global proficiency tests; and 4) that a significant relationship was shown between HD and EP scores when respondents were grouped according to age and area of specialization only.

Besides the theoretical approach, the paper also includes an research conducted with students of the Faculty of Jornalism and Communication at the University of Bucarest. The main objective of this research was to determine the extent to which the media fiction (television series for youth) influence the attitudes of the public. The epistemological approach is based on three assumptions: 1. Attitude change caused by exposure to television is a process conditioned by the opinion leaders and the reactivity of the audience. 2. The flow of communication specific to structured group is the psychological mechanism which structuring values. 3. The effects of media (especially television) are enhanced or diminished by the positioning of the leaders of the group in respect of the values presented in episodes watched. Concerning the first hypothesis, after the research, we can not say that there is a link type „cause and effect” between students' exposure to messages television series „Beverly Hills 90210” and results. Regarding the second hypothesis we can see a partial validation. Also the third hypothesis was confirmed to a large extent, but noted that students condsider that a relatively large influence is supported by some agents of influence outside the university. The research found that although the research participants do not recognize the existence of some influence of television (and television series) on them, we can highlihht a persuasive moderate pressure from media of fiction.

Research and Science Today Journal is a publication founded in 2011 and it is dedicated to the students of all levels (license, master and doctoral) of faculties in the country and abroad. We want to offer the participants the opportunity to present their scientific works in the following areas: Social Sciences, Economic Sciences, Legal Sciences, Humanities, Education Sciences, Engineering, Medicine and Sport.
This journal provides students the opportunity to create and / or to improve their abilities to write scientific papers. So each appearance (two appearances per year at which we can add supplements) contains a number of papers written by students, masters and doctoral from the faculties from the country or / and abroad. The journal promotes original studies contributing to the progress of knowledge and it is motivated by the need to address issues of theory and practice in the areas mentioned above.
The Journal is a training means of the factors involved in the conceptualization, development, implementation and evaluation , aiming the formation of creative personalities who could be able to adapt through the changing conditions of life.
Journal wants to be a forum for debates disciplinaries and interdisciplinaries theoretical topics, to become a research support, to leverage this work at regional, national and international levels.
We believe that this gathering will enjoy the support from both parts of the researchers and of the practitioners, and will provide appropriate training sources held professional through the current problems.

Determinants and Consequences of Moving Decisions for Older Homeowners.

The lore on whether older Americans move is mixed. While the familiar stereotype is that retirees flock to Florida or Arizona, prior studies have found that their home equity
rises modestly over time, suggesting that they tend to stay put. This paper examines moving trends, determinants, and consequences using the original cohort of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). We find that a full 30 percent of homeowners in the HRS cohort move over the 1992-2004 period, but most moves occur close to home. Overall,two types of movers emerge from the analysis – those who affirmatively plan to move and those who react to changing circumstances. As proxies for these two types, this study uses the presence or absence of a negative shock, such as death of a spouse or entry into a nursing home. Our results show that the factors that help determine a move are similar for both groups, while the consequences of a move vary. Homeowners with shocks are more likely to discontinue homeownership and reduce net equity, supporting the hypothesis that households may view housing wealth as insurance against catastrophic events. Finally, while movers in both groups of homeowners experience improvements in psychological well-being, movers with shocks are impacted most by the shocks themselves.

Older Americans on the Go: Financial and Psychological Effects of Moving.
Calvo, Esteban
Haverstick, Kelly
Zhivan, Natalia
Y90 - Other
Moving is an important decision for any homeowner, requiring one to weigh the familiar comforts of a home and neighborhood against the uncertain potential of a new location. A move decision may be even more challenging for an older person. On the one hand, older people often have a decades-long attachment to their current residence. On the other hand, they may face new opportunities (ample leisure time) or challenges (the loss of a spouse) that affect their desire or ability to stay where they are.
This brief is the second of two examining moving decisions among older Americans. The first brief covered how often older households move, where they move, and their stated reasons for moving. An initial analysis of these reasons indicated two general types of movers: those who are able to affirmatively plan a move (“Planners”) and those who react to a change in their circumstances that may force them to relocate (“Reactors”). Given the different stated motivations of these movers, the determinants and consequences of their move decisions may vary. This brief tests these hypotheses, using the Health and Retirement Study.
The first section introduces the sample of households used in the analysis. The second section analyzes what characteristics influence a decision to move. The third section looks at the impact of moving on home equity, while the fourth section considers the impact on psychological well-being. The final section concludes.

La certeza incierta de los rankings de felicidad
Calvo, Esteban

Y90 - Other
La simpleza de los rankings mundiales de la felicidad ha facilitado su acogida en los debates sobre políticas públicas, que están ávidos por incorporar nuevas medidas del bienestar de las sociedades. Lamentablemente, éstos han sido interpretados de forma poco cuidadosa, tratando las diferencias entre países como si tuvieran una certeza que en la práctica no tienen. En la presente Clave de Política Pública mostramos que es posible reconocer la incertidumbre de estos rankings utilizando intervalos de confianza para los promedios nacionales de felicidad y definiendo puntos de referencia, sin por ello sacrificar la simpleza que hace tan atractivos a los rankings mundiales de felicidad. Al tomar en cuenta sólo las diferencias estadísticamente significativas respecto a Chile, observamos que las conclusiones obtenidas no exageran las diferencias entre países.
Global happiness rankings have flourished during the past decade, getting increased attention in public policy debates throughout the world. Policymakers and academics are demanding new measures of societal well-being that go beyond income. International organizations such as the UN and OECD are supporting the development of multidimensional measures of well-being, includinghappiness indicators together with moretraditional indicators such as GDP per capita. The media have been very receptive of the newly developed happiness indicators and published numerous colorful maps that illustrate national levels of happiness across the world. Unfortunately, these rankings and maps have been repeatedly misinterpreted in public policy debates, treating differences between countries as if they were estimated without uncertainty. Ignoring the uncertainty underlying happiness rankings inevitably leads us to exaggerate differences between countries. That is, countries ranked in different positions in a happiness ranking may be treated as if they were statistically different from each other when they are not. Therefore, we argue that happiness rankings –whether presented in maps, figures, or tables– should always accountfor uncertainty by including confidence intervals and a reference point to assess statistical differences across countries. Using the World Values Survey cross-national data on life satisfaction for 91 countries,we illustrate how to build happiness ranking that correctly account for uncertainty. We take Chile as a reference point to make comparisons, and repaint the world map of happiness by classifying countries as statistically happier, unhappier or not different from Chile. The results suggest that when looking for lessons to become a happier society, Chile should mainly look to its Latin American neighbors, rather than to many higher income countries around the world that rank above Chile in the happiness ranking. Overall, these results suggest a serious risk of neglecting uncertainty when using happiness ranking to inform public policy debates.

El interés en medir la felicidad es compartido por muchas autoridades, académicos y profesionales comprometidos con mejorar el bienestar no monetario de las personas. Organismos internacionales como la OCDE y la ONU apoyan oficialmente la implementación de mediciones de felicidad y bienestar subjetivo. Chile y otros países como Bután, Francia e Inglaterra han seguido estas recomendaciones e incorporado mediciones de la felicidad en sus censos y encuestas de hogares. La medición de la felicidad es claramente un tema en boga a nivel internacional. En esta Clave para Políticas Públicas queremos apoyar las iniciativas de medición de la felicidad en Chile y otros países entregando recomendaciones basadas en la evidencia acerca de cómo medir la felicidad de forma válida, confiable, eficiente y concordante con los estándares internacionales.
Numerous policymakers and scholars share a common interest in measuring happiness. International organizations such as the OECD and the UN officially support the implementation of measures of happiness and subjective well-being. Chile and other countries like Bhutan, France and England have followed these recommendations and incorporated measurements of happiness in their censuses and household surveys. In this policy brief, we provide evidence-based recommendations on how to measure happiness in a way that is valid, reliable, efficient, and consistent with international standards.

I start with income and wealth inequality data from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Thomas Piketty, and propose approaches taken from science (for example, behavioral evolution theory,) that might be useful in explaining the data and forecasting future economic events. Using a modified production function developed by Robert Solow, I also explore redistributive effects of income when biological restrictions lead to minimum expenditure requirements and satiation conditions. I conclude that redistributing income from the wealthy to the poor can have counter-cyclical effects in recessions. Moreover, redistribution in the form of human capital can have particularly large positive economic growth effects. Finally, I explain how financial crisis may lead to large economic downturns by proposing a model where productive capital formation is dependent on debt financing.

A study explained the nature of astronomical objects and their movement in an orbit of momentum. Not only some astronomical objects have been identified in a simpler form but also provided their characteristics. On the basis of this analysis and interpretation of estimated phenomena and the visibility of objects in Universe, the Core concept has been identified to explain the movement in a space and causes that are responsible for universal theorem. The purpose of the study is to provide better understanding of relationship among gravity, distance and time with the support of laws of astrophysics. An assumption was made for a constant factor that (P) is the product of distance covered by the body and gravitational force acting on it. An empirical derivation has been deployed with help of supported standard equations in order to explain the association whereas further research is possible in developing the relation and association of other astrophysics factors or lead the current study towards the theory.

Methodological Misconceptions in the Social Sciences. Rethinking social thought and social processes

Contemporary social teaching suffers from a grave deficiency: it is lacking rules of methodology
and procedure suited to social reality that are, in particular, able to reconcile increasing creativity
(implying irreversibility) with rationality, which are indispensable for the scientific judgement of
theoretical ideas. Unfortunately, this lack is largely ignored, and eminent social scholars have even explicitly and emphatically theorized a rejection of method. This allows rhetorical and literary skills to prevail over the reasons of science, thereby promoting a deceptive instead of constructive pluralism, confusion in the study of contemporary societies and growing ineptitude in their
government, what represents a main source of afflictions in the present world.
Method is a two-edged sword: it offers powerful assistance in and enhances our capability of understanding and solving the problems of everyday life; but if the chosen method is inappropriate,it can seriously obstruct the advancement of knowledge. Significantly, the best contributions to
social knowledge have been ad hoc studies that disregard method and simply apply common sense. But ad hoc studies suffer a lack of coordination, and the neglect of method makes it difficult to evaluate and select findings and results. As a consequence, ad hoc analyses have little chance of stimulating the cumulative growth of knowledge.
However, the present study is intended as a contribution that prevents method from becoming a prison for the mind as opposed to a stimulant of creativity and knowledge.

LEZs (Low Emission Zones),is a defined area in many cities where access by certain polluting vehicles is restricted or deterred with the aim of improving the air quality.
In many LEZs local governments introduces road pricing schemes in order to reduce social and environmental negative externalities associated with road travel such as air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, visual intrusion, noise and road accidents.

Boudon's Contribution to the Objectivity of Ethics
Fusari, Angelo
P0 - General
Y9 - Other
Z0 - General
Z1 - Cultural Economics ; Economic Sociology ; Economic Anthropology
Boudon’s intellectual production is wide, complex and offers a quantity of original contributions. A
main aspect of this author’s scientific work is the objectivist and anti relativist exploration on
values, a deepening expressing the perception of fundamental analytical necessities and that, mainly
through its implications on method and the same vision of social thought, sooner or later will
greatly stimulate innovation.
In modern complex societies, characterized by rapid changes in organizational and ethical
foundations and a strong push toward globalization, it becomes more and more evident the
necessity to overhaul the axiomatic basis and the genesis of judgement criteria with their
implications, mainly the interaction with institutional order and the transition of civilizations. In
particular, it is pressing the need to solder, in the context of social integration, individual and
collective behaviour to the exigency of rationality. Moreover, it is important to avoid cultural
diffusion exogenously forced and to clarify in a stringent way the degenerative characters of some
values, such as religious fundamentalism, tyrannies and totalitarian views that have claimed to
regenerate man while are some true dead-ends.
The first section of this essay treats the present condition of the theory of values and dedicates
some brief note to its role in social research. Section two amplifies such treatment and analyses
Boudon’s position in that context, mainly expressed by his theory of objective values. Finally,
section three treats the way to remedy some omissions that, in our opinion, limit the fecundity of
Boudon’s proposals and that mainly refer to some axiomatic foundations on method. The essay
ends with an exhortation to overcome, through science, the unfruitful contrast between voluntarists
and the followers of spontaneous motion.
For space reasons, the paper dedicates only a quick analysis to some delicate questions that we
diffusely treated in other studies on Boudon, sending back to them for a major deepening1.

De geschiedschrijving van vliegvelden en hun metamorfose in metropolitaanse gebieden is onlosmakelijk verbonden met processen van verstedelijking, decentralisatie, economische groei en de ruimtelijke aanwas van steden, buitenwijken en regio’s. Die processen worden niet door enig ontwerp gestuurd, maar door veranderingen in grond-en gebouwengebruik en bewegingen van mensen, goederen, kapitaal, diensten, informatie en de infrastructurele netwerken die de wonende en werkende mens in beweging brengen. Het gaat daarbij om functionele patronen in de bewegingen en transacties die op hun beurt weer invloed hebben op de ruimtelijke structuren, dat wil zeggen de fysieke verschijningsvorm die dergelijke activiteiten ter plekke produceren. In dit (hoofd)stuk willen we inzichtelijk maken hoe de groeistuipen van Schiphol eraan hebben bijgedragen dat het noordwestelijke deel van de Randstad is uitgegroeid tot een bijzonder metropolitaans gebied met een eigen stedelijke structuur en cultuur. Dat verschijnsel hebben we nevelstad genoemd. Hier analyseren we vooral de groeiprocessen zoals die hebben plaatsgevonden in de regio rond Schiphol: in Amsterdam en de Haarlemmermeer. Hier ontstond een verneveling die zich vanaf de jaren zestig over het westen van Nederland snel heeft uitgebreid, tot aan de Brabantse stedenrij toe.

Economy relies on companies evolving in an increasingly highly regulated environment, having their operations strongly formalised and controlled, and being often organised following a bureaucratic approach. In such a context, new and paramount governance requirements advocate for having the responsibility for business processes and tasks formally defined and assigned to the employees. Without efficient formalisation of the responsibility, these companies face the risk to prevent the satisfactorily delivery of business services and that their image is seriously altered and jeopardised. Hence, among the many challenges related to these new governance requirements is the modelling of the concept of responsibility in a unique and expressive model usable in concrete business situations. Unfortunately, in this domain, we have observed that no (meta)model exists and integrates these new needs yet. The second important requirement is to provide the appropriate rights to the employees following their responsibilities to perform specific tasks. Up to date, no solution, model or method addresses the rights provisioning following this perspective. In this context, the paper proposes firstly to define an expressive Responsibility metamodel in UML, named ReMMo, which allows representing the existing responsibilities at the business layer of the enterprise. Afterwards this Responsibility metamodel is integrated with ArchiMate to enhance its usability and benefits from the enterprise architecture formalism. This integration allows strengthening the semantic of the concepts and relations among concepts from the business layer of the enterprise, and more specially the assignment of rights on business objects to the employees.

The recent emergence of decentralized networks and ubiquitous Internet has highlighted the need for a better management of the companies’ IT architecture and for an improvement of the users of the network’s responsibility. Many standards have recently emerged to face these requirements. By analyzing them, we observe that they all include reference to the user responsibility but also that no common understanding of it exists. These statements have oriented our research toward the elaboration of an innovative, simple and pragmatic responsibility model that includes a user commitment dimension. ISO/IEC 27001:2005 is one of that new standard that aims at providing a framework for improving the information system management and the security of IT architecture. Although this standard is recognized over the globe, many surveys and cases studies provide interesting feedback about its implementation problems. In this paper, we introduce our responsibility model, we depict the responsibility aspects encompassed in ISO 27001 and we propose some improvement perspectives to face these problems and strengthen its implementation.

Smart Mobility is proved to be a high priority topic in regard to arising European societal challenges. Deploying smart mobility required both technological and monitoring knowledge, and one important key features of the initiative stay in the multiplicity of the final users. Its goal is, depending on the type of users, to provide the required accurate data through a dynamic monitoring application. This implies to collect data coming from physical sensors deployed in all the parking areas of a region. Those sensors are simple, meaning that the information that they can collect is limited to an entry or exit signal of a vehicle. This paper presents an architecture for applying the visualization of smart monitoring architecture to a distributed ubiquity mobility platform and show a deployment in the frame of a use case. The later has been developed in a European region and consists in a smart mobility monitoring project.

To keep abreast of the fast changing pace of time is one of the primary imperative necessities of every teacher for not turning to be either obsolete or redundant. In the present digital divide, the use of ICTs opens up multiplicity of possibilities and the role of the teacher from conventional mantle exacts symmetrical transformations. In this context the present article undertakes to investigate how the digital portfolio posits challenges to a teacher and how befittingly should the teacher customize and transpose himself from the conventional teacher’s role to that of an educator.

Quality control and improvements in research of Islamic Economics
Islahi, Abdul Azim
A1 - General Economics
Y9 - Other
This paper deals with the question of quality control in researches on Islamic economics and related areas and how to improve it. It is mainly based on the author's short experience as the chief editor of the Journal of King Abdulaziz University - Islamic Economics (JKAU-IE). He got motivation to write about it by an article entitled ""How to Write an Effective Referee Report and Improve the Scientific Review Process" authored by three American professors. A few points of this article have also been highlighted in this paper in addition to the author's advice to the researchers to avoid dependency on unknown and secondary sources, be careful while referring to the Quran and ahadith, do not rely on internet information unless it is supplemented and verified by other reliable sources. Standard rules should be followed in pagination and quotations. The paper also exposes malpractices in joint authorship. It is proposed that it should be made obligatory and a condition for acceptance of a joint paper to add a note, at the beginning or at the end of the paper, to declare which idea or part of the paper belongs to which author. At the end the paper warns of some other unethical practices that cause deterioration of research standard.

Despite significant advances in research on innovation in services, there are still major challenges
in this area. The purpose of this article is to analyse the state-of-the art on innovation
in services, and point out some future possibilities. The method used was a bibliographic
review. The results indicate that there is a transition taking place, where researchers are no
longer trying to explain what innovation is (linked to a school of thought of the subject), but
trying to explain how it occurs. Moreover, it is observed that the research trend is the study
on innovation in services interconnected with other areas.
Apesar dos importantes avanc¸os na pesquisa em inovac¸ão em servic¸os, essa área ainda tem
desafios a serem superados. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste artigo é analisar o estado da arte
em inovac¸ão em servic¸os e apontar algumas possibilidades de pesquisas futuras. O método
utilizado foi uma revisão bibliográfica. Os resultados indicam que há uma transic¸ão ocorrendo
da temática, cujos pesquisadores não estão mais buscando explicar o que é inovac¸ão
atrelada a uma escola de pensamento da disciplina, mas tentando explicar como o fenômeno
ocorre. Além disso, observa-se que a tendência de pesquisa nessa área é o estudo da
inovac¸ão em servic¸os e a sua interligac¸ão com outras áreas.

We describe a bingo-style game intended to be played at economics conferences. Early results from implementation of the game by economists at conferences suggest that fun increases more than a full standard deviation. Further study of the effects of the game are ongoing.

The importance of the Governance of IT is becoming more and more important in the enterprises especially since the accounting scandals of 2002 and more currently through the ongoing market crisis. While all political leaders say that the world economy’s is at grave risk, development are done to firstly elaborate appropriate framework to enforce and guarantee the stability of the financial sector and by extension to all sectors of the industrial economy and secondly, to enhance the governance all of these public and private companies. Sarbanes-Oxley is one of these laws that aims to provide guarantees over the company’s accountability. The ISO/EIC 38500 [14] is one standard that provides a framework for effective governance of IT. This framework provides guiding six principles: Establish responsibilities, Plan to best support the organization, Acquire validly, Ensure performance when required, Ensure conformance with rules and Ensure respect for human factors. The principle “Acquire validly“ aims at ensuring that the acquisition of IT components and of the exploitation mode is realized with the assurance that it is aligned with the business strategy
A lot of SME from the industrial but also from the financial sector is still unable to correctively choose the optimal compromise for exploiting their e-business solution regarding their business needs. Effectively, choosing the best way for an IT infrastructure exploitation accordingly with the security requirement is a professional activity that can’t always be appropriately conduct by a SME staff. Although a lot of criteria influence the exploitation mode to be chosen – independency regarding an IT company, cost and profitability of the solution, technology used – security remain the major influencing factor.
This document has for objective to analyse the aspects of security measures related to the e-business, according to the geographical place of the e-business architecture: in the company itself, outsourced, or an intermediate place between those two. The first part of this document defines what we understand by "exploitation mode", the second analyses the security aspects related to each component of an e-business architecture according to its exploitation mode, and finally the last part makes an analysis of the security of general architecture, always according to its exploitation mode.

The economic context advocates a better understanding of responsibilities and an enhancement of these responsibilities within a moral perspective. These arising requirements have oriented our research toward the elaboration of an innovative responsibility model. This paper aims at enriching our responsibility model on the basis of a further analysis of these concepts in human sciences literature.

Francis Fukuyama has explained that searching a meaningful pattern in the past events of mankind will always show the clash of ideologies, in which each idea attempted to establish itself as the universal faith for organizing the society and institutions according to its specific blueprint. The triumph of liberalism over Marxism and Fascism, established the superiority of liberalism which brought history to an end-point of mankind ideological evolution and the universalization of western liberal democracy as the final form of human civilization. Have we in fact arrived at the end-point of mankind ideological evolution? Should we believe that neoliberalism is capable to provide greatest interest to the greatest number. Muslims believes that Islam already provided the best and everlasting ideology for the welfare of humanity. Islam is based on the logic of intervention in the socioeconomic affairs of mankind, while neoliberalist believes on non-intervention. On the basis of alcoholic drinks, this paper on one hand highlighted the relationship between public interest in case of neoliberalism and Islam, while on the other hand it also highlighted the internal contradiction. Results indicate that besides contradiction, neoliberalism is attributable to the greatest harm to the greatest number while in the dogma of Islam there is greatest benefits to the greatest number.

European Border Regions in comparison: The cross-border cooperation in Basque Country – a good example for Bihor – Hajdú-Bihar Region?
Buda, Mariana
Y9 - Other
The Cross-border cooperation constitutes one of the most tangible effects of European integration. The Basque Country, formed by territories of France and Spain is one of the Euroregions where the Social Economy and the Culture and Identity have played a crucial role in the development of o good and solid cooperation. Could this case be a good example for us?
The aim of this article is to stress the most important instruments used by the Basque Country in order to cooperate across the borders and to make a comparison with the Bihor – Hajdú -Bihar Region. Is the Basque Country a lesson of cooperation for our living place, the Euroregion Bihor – Hajdú -Bihar?
From another perspective, the two euro-regions mark points of view of cross-border cooperation at the borders of Europe, one at the Western Border and the other at the Eastern Border of the European Union.

Critical review of the tools of Ijtihad used in Islamic finance

K39 - Other
Y9 - Other
Fiqh, indicating Islamic law and the means to produce it, covers all aspects of human dealings, including Islamic financial law and its Shariah nominated contracts, which represent the bases for all Islamic banking and finance transactions. These contracts are either readily found in the classic books of Islamic law or modified versions adopted to suit the modern transactions of Islamic finance. In some cases they are a combination of more than one contract designed to serve a particular financing purpose, like the contract of Ijarah Muntahia Bittamlik where the transaction starts with lease and ends with sale. This paper comes to discuss the most important Ijtihad instruments that can be used by the Faqih to evaluate and endorse products in Islamic finance. It then elaborates on the instruments that are in use in the modern Islamic finance and which reflect a departure from Shariah rules and tools for Ijtihad. The objective of this paper is to shed light on the contemporary Ijtihad in Fiqh of Finance in light of the guidelines provided by the Shariah in an attempt to draw the outlines of what constitutes a proper use of proper Ijtihad instruments in Islamic finance.

Male victimization of women Covered in Society’s Expectation in Razia Sultana Khan’s Seduction: The Perspective of Seven Building Tasks of Language

Living in the society’s expectation is like we are forced to do what they want us to do and it is in the circle of hell. At one time, we need society as the means to communicate and be a natural human being. At the other hands, its culture and custom destroy ourselves especially those who have sexist culture and custom. This Bangladesh short story titled Seduction is one of the representatives of society that has sexist culture. It tells about a young girl who is forced to marry at the young age and becomes the object of her husband’s sexual trinket. What the writer wants to emphasize is the way the author named Razia Sultana Khan describe the treatment and the culture through Paul Gee’s seven language blocks’ perspective. The result of the discussion is that this short story, indeed, contains some of the seven building blocks that are significance, activities, identities, relationships, politics, connections and sign systems and knowledge.

Fukuyama described the triumph of neoliberalism over rival ideologies, as the end-point of mankind ideological evolution and the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human civilization. Muslims believes that Islam already provided the best and everlasting ideology for the welfare of humanity. The logic of Islam is based on the intervention, whilst neoliberalist believes in non-intervention. Using the methodology of library research, this study investigated whether neoliberalism or Islam better serves the greatest interest of the greatest numbers by taking the case of alcoholic drinks. Ground realities exhibit that neoliberalism is attributable to the greatest harm to the greatest number while in the dogma of Islam there is an all-time greatest benefit to the greatest number.

T’was slouching towards an illusion and now it’s scurrying toward a delusion: A COVID19-shocked doughnut model economy

An easy way of observing and predicting changes in the structure and behavior of any freemarket economy is to track changes in its circular flow model of economic activity. Using book titles as a literature review in combinations with a few classics, I describe how the circular flows of free -market economies evolved from little, gentle, and now nearly powerless government role, culminating in superduper capitalism. First the evolution generated great wealth and income, and of late also increasinginequality. Processes like globalization that allowed for econ omic convergence also spurred enormous tensions. The resulting stresses and strains are responsible for unpopular populism and nationalism. The doughnut economic model provides a reasonable framework for explaining what we observe. It shows a decline in the social foundations of human rights, made worse by breaches in the “planetary boundaries”
both of which squeeze the livable space ever more tightly like a boa-constrictor suffocating its prey. In this
paper I do not go as far as measuring my observations, but the directions for policy and future research have clearly been established. Regarding the latter, one may want to examine how COVID19 has shocked into scurrying towards a delusion of a system that was already slouching towards an illusion. It turns out that the illusion is not a new prediction. In his critique of Marx and rationalization of Kondratieff’s waves (K-waves) Schumpeter predicted that capitalism as an innovation is not immune to the “gale of creative destruction.”

To keep abreast of the fast changing pace of time is one of the primary imperative necessities of every teacher for not turning to be either obsolete or redundant. In the present digital divide, the use of ICTs opens up multiplicity of possibilities and the role of the teacher from conventional mantle exacts symmetrical transformations. In this context the present article undertakes to investigate how the digital portfolio posits challenges to a teacher and how befittingly should the teacher customize and transpose himself from the conventional teacher’s role to that of an educator.

Differential response on pre- and post-disclosed committed inducements in a face to face interview

Inducements of different forms and at different stages are used for motivating people to participate in human subject research. Although it is accepted that inducements, in general, play a positive role in increasing participation rate, there are exceptions. Inducements may contaminate the quality of research findings or may even reduce response rate in some circumstances. If the research project is purely for public goods, the researcher does not have any intention of personal gain, and that message is clearly conveyed to the prospective respondents, a material inducement may not be needed. Under such a situation, peoples' altruistic behavior takes precedence over psychological egoism.

In this paper, the validation and performance testing of a control scheme for a single-phase single-stage transformerless grid-connected Photovoltaic (PV) inverter are presented using the Control-Hardware-in-the-Loop (C-HIL) implementation. The control scheme uses the DC-link voltage controller and grid current controller, and it is executed in a LAUNCHXL-F28379D development kit, providing a cost-effective solution compared to commercially available tools. In order to extract the maximum available power from the PV system under different conditions, two Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms, including the Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm and incremental conductance method, are investigated and compared. The simulation and experimental results are provided to verify the performance of the studied control scheme.

This study examines the vulnerability and resilience of coastal barangays in Zamboanga City, Philippines, in the context of disaster risk management. Utilizing a comprehensive data collection approach, including interviews, surveys, and field observations, this research aims to identify key factors that contribute to the vulnerability of these communities, as well as the strategies employed to enhance their resilience. The analysis of primary data collected from 30 households across five coastal barangays reveals that these communities face significant vulnerabilities to various hazards, including typhoons, storm surges, and sea-level rise. Findings indicate that factors such as inadequate infrastructure, limited access to basic services, and high poverty levels intensify their exposure to disasters. In response to these challenges, the study documents several resilience-building initiatives undertaken by the local government and community organizations. These efforts include the establishment of early warning systems, the implementation of hazard-resistant infrastructure, and the promotion of community-based disaster risk reduction and management practices.

This research paper investigates the socio-political and cultural dynamics surrounding the Sama Bajau ethnic tribe, commonly referred to as "stateless sea gypsies," residing along the coastlines of the Bangsamoro region in the Philippines. By employing a multidisciplinary approach that encompasses anthropology, sociology, and public administration, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the historical, socio-cultural, and political contexts that contribute to the statelessness of the Sama Bajau community. Drawing on a thorough examination of existing literature, empirical data analysis, and field observations, this research reveals the challenges confronted by the Sama Bajau, including limited access to essential services, landlessness, marginalization, and the preservation of their cultural heritage. Moreover, it explores the intricate relationship between state policies, local governance structures, and the resilient cultural practices of the Sama Bajau. In light of these findings, this study presents a set of policy recommendations aimed at addressing the plight of the Sama Bajau tribe. These proposals advocate for the recognition of their rights to cultural identity and land, the provision of basic social services, and the implementation of inclusive strategies to enhance their active involvement in decision-making processes.

Because of increasing wildfire risk and associated losses, fire insurance has become more difficult to obtain in Northern California. The only insurance alternative for homeowners who are unable to find conventional home insurance is limited and costly coverage available through the California FAIR Plan. Counties located in the Central Sierras have been particularly hard hit with insurance cancellations. FAIR Plan policies in several of those counties exceeded 20% of all policies in 2021.
Results from three recent assessments, based on wildfire simulation models, agree that counties in the Central Sierras are among the most at-risk for wildfire-caused structure loss. Most housing losses in the 2013-2022 decade, however, were the result of wind-driven fires in the Northern Sierras and in the Northern San Francisco Bay Area. 85% of all losses occurred in fires where a Red Flag Warning (RFW) for high winds had been issued by the National Weather Service. The Northern Sierras and the North Bay Area averaged 60% more RFW days during the fall fire season compared to the Central Sierras.
Strong downslope “Diablo” winds from the Great Basin deserts were involved in seven of the most destructive fires, accounting for 65% of the total housing losses. Based on records from 109 weather stations throughout the Sierras and the Bay Area, these wind events occur primarily in the Northern Sierras and the Bay Area. Climate models have predicted that Diablo-type winds should decrease as the interior deserts warm, but weather stations in both the Bay Area and the Sierras recorded a large increase in the number of strong DiabIo wind days in the 2017 through 2021 years. All seven of the Diablo wind fires occurred during that time span.
Fires driven by strong Diablo winds fit into a category of disasters referred to as “black swan” events – rare occurrences that have very large effects. Because these fires occur so infrequently, they have minimal effect on risk estimates produced by averaging together the outcomes of thousands of simulations. Exceedance probability analysis (Ager et al., 2021) can help to identify the communities most at risk from such high-loss, low-probability events. Combining exceedance probability analysis with simulation models that capture the frequency and location of extreme wind events should cause county risk rankings to more closely match actual losses. As a result, the relative risk ratings (and FAIR Plan policies) assigned to the Central Sierras should be reduced.
