A Study on the Influence of Creativity of Medical Product Design and Project Socialization on the Success of Industrial Fundraising

Author(s): Ren LEI,Wu YAN / Language(s): English Issue: 73/2021

Since the rise of mass fundraising platforms, they are offered to entrepreneurs and teams with innovative ideas. Under this trend, more and more start-ups and scholars pay attention to and study the factors that contribute to the success of mass fundraising. On the mass fundraising platform, people from different countries and different cultural backgrounds perceive the creativity of project products according to their personal preferences, and then make sponsorship decisions. In recent years, pro-social activities are not limited to large non-profit groups or organizations. More and more pro-social fundraising projects with public welfare nature are springing up, and more and more entrepreneurs mention pro-social keywords in the content description of the project, as a way to determine the degree of pro-sociality. In this study, 312 valid questionnaires are collected from the general public in Fujian Province, and each questionnaire represents the valid sample of this study. The results are as follows: 1. Environmental friendliness has a significant impact on the success of fundraising. 2. Creativity has a significant impact on the success of fundraising. 3. Socialization has a significant impact on the success of fundraising. According to the results, some suggestions are put forward, which are expected to help product design effectively convey the concepts of environmental friendliness, creativity and pro-sociality to more people through specific ways, so as to promote the success of sponsorship.

A Win for the Middle Class? A Qualitative Study Mapping “Benefits” from the National Quarantine

A Win for the Middle Class? A Qualitative Study Mapping “Benefits” from the National Quarantine

Author(s): Jowita Radzińska,Paula Pustułka / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2021

It is becoming increasingly apparent that the life situation in groups of different social status is affected to a dissimilar degree by the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on data collected through online individual in-depth interviews conducted in March 2020 as the first wave of a broader qualitative longitudinal research project, we present certain unobvious benefits of the spring quarantine noticed by members of the Polish middle class. These gains were mapped across four spheres: more time and regeneration; attention to relationships; professional and skills development; and space for reflection with a global perspective. It has been demonstrated that, despite a sense of destabilisation and uncertainty brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the middle class is making use of various kinds of capital for leverage, striving to manage the change and not passively succumb to it. Perception of the situation as serious, paired with concern for the health of loved ones, is not upsetting their general sense of comfort and appreciation of their personal, family, occupational and financial situation. Worries related to experiencing risk are balanced out by the requirement to self-regulate and be proactive.

Adaptation of the Penal Response to the Globalization of Criminality

Adaptation of the Penal Response to the Globalization of Criminality

Author(s): François-Xavier Roux-Demare / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The evolution of international economic-political relations and the means of communication has required, for a long time, a review of the apprehension of spaces and borders. The jurist was not excluded from this reflection, quite the contrary. The criminal sciences – despite the traditional term of “sovereign matter” – have had to adapt to an obvious evolution. The situation is not new; crime is becoming international. Nevertheless, it is no longer a question of being limited to the international crimes creating international criminal law, but of the necessary response of an international criminal law. In fact, alongside crimes that undermine the international public order, States must fight against an internationalized crime. The physiognomy of this crime is now acquired: internationalized, interpenetrated and professionalized. Borders do not seem to be an obstacle to crime. The globalization of exchanges and means of communication strengthens the effectiveness of criminal bands. To this criminal evolution, the States had to react. Again, this is not a recent response. Quickly, the national police collaborated to fight against a blatant and detestable impunity through the game of borders. However, and in order to face the increase in this crime benefiting from the disappearance of borders, States had to overcome their sense of sovereignist withdrawal. The European Union illustrates this new response, going beyond traditional criminal cooperation to ensure a real criminal integration.

Adolescenţii şi consumul de droguri în societatea actuală. De la curiozitate la un comportament de consum

Author(s): Viorica-Cristina Cormos / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 27/2021

Adolescents in the current society have temptations of all kinds, including drug use. An even minimal drug use, considered social consumption, can have serious consequences at physical, psychic and social level. Because adolescence is a period of fluctuations, it is important to have a permanent problem in the educational environment, the media, etc. of this social consumption and associated risks. Adolescents need to be properly informed about the consequences of the drug use and guided to specialist services where appropriate. The purpose of this article is to analyze the problem of drug use in adolescents. In this respect, a research was conducted in Suceava County in three high schools. The analyzed aspects are: the level of adolescents for drugs; the existence of a consumer entourage; perception of illegal drug use among adolescents; the causes of drug use among adolescents; perception of adolescents on the effects of drug use.

Agressivity and violence in Romanian schools: bullying and mobbying

Author(s): Georgiana Virginia Bonea / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1/2019

The present study starts from the identification and analysis of the phenomenology and the causality of aggression and violence in school in order to discover new simple but effective ways of preventing and combating this problem faced by both Romania and many other states of the world. Thus, starting from the existing social policies and from the official statistics provided by the Ministry of National Education, a realistic analysis of this phenomenon can be made. The issue of violence in school can no longer be ignored, as it is a serious violation of Human Rights. In such a context, governmental, institutional, social, school and family efforts are required for a more effective and lasting response. At the same time, the causes of violence in school are identified, thus providing possible solutions for preventing and combating the problem, with openings for new future analysis.

AI-DPC BiH SECURITY ANALYSIS POLICY NOTE 02: Bosnia and Herzegovina after the February 2014 protests: is there a potential for renewed violent social unrest?

Author(s): Bodo Weber / Language(s): English

Despite a multitude of challenges and structural problems inherited from the pre-war and wartime socio-economic system and the post-war state structure, Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) saw remarkable economic recovery and growth from 2004-06. This was partly due to some state-building reforms including the introduction of a unified VAT rate and a Single Account for indirect tax collection and revenue distribution, made possible by serious international engagement that in turn boosted the reform willingness of domestic political elites. However, hopes that domestic elites would continue structural reform on the way to Euro-Atlantic integration quickly proved unfounded when the West, in a policy shift in 2005/06, began handing increasing responsibility to domestic actors. Not only did the ruling elites not follow through with reforms, but they expanded the existing political-economic patronage system. The main elements of this patronage system are burgeoning public employment and a system of status-based social benefits for certain social groups, especially war veterans. Both elements are ethnically based and use administrative resources to tie the political loyalty of large social groups to the ruling ethnic parties. The exploding cost that went with the excessive expansion of patronage ate up the effects of the previous economic growth and fiscal performance and made Bosnia and Herzegovina enter the global economic crisis in 2008 on homemade terms. The country succeeded to escape from recession after 2010, but it failed to move towards socio-economic recovery and sustainable growth. The slow-down of the global recession and the implementation of basic initial structural reforms on domestic soil stopped the dramatic economic downturn. But the structural causes of the socio-economic weakness, and above all the patronage system, remained untouched. In order to uphold a fragile socio-economic stability, the ruling elites increasingly relied on foreign and domestic borrowing and on international financial institutions such as the IMF. The IMF has continued to provide credit arrangements since 2010, even though structural reforms were not being implemented and reform commitments were not being honored, and despite rising political instability. The reasons for this generosity lie primarily with the EU’s policy of that period: unable to muster the political will to confront domestic political resistance to reforms in BiH, the Union has lowered or dropped altogether its reform conditions. In 2013, the EU provided direct support to the BiH State budget without any serious conditionality. With rapidly rising levels of public indebtedness and social disaffection, this approach proved unsustainable in the long run – as became evident in the violent outburst of social frustrations in February 2014. The protests ended essentially without any results; all the socio-economic and political factors that provoked them in 2014 remain in place and pose a continuing security risk for the future of BiH. It remains to be seen if the EU’s new BiH initiative, spearheaded by Germany and the UK, really has the potential to promote serious structural economic and social reforms.

AM I A GOOD CAREGIVER FOR YOUTH AT RISK? SOCIO-EDUCATIONAL WORKERS’ PERCEPTION OF SELF-EFFICACY THROUGH THE LENS OF ATTACHMENT THEORY

AM I A GOOD CAREGIVER FOR YOUTH AT RISK? SOCIO-EDUCATIONAL WORKERS’ PERCEPTION OF SELF-EFFICACY THROUGH THE LENS OF ATTACHMENT THEORY

Author(s): Levi Sudai Pazit / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

“Have I succeeded in helping the youths I care for? Does our relationship enable the youths to make a progress? To feel better?” These questions are frequently raised during the supervision sessions with the socio-educational workers (SEWs) of the Youth Advancement Units . SEWs provide care for youths, many of whom have dropped out from formal educational frameworks in Israel. The main role of these workers is to enhance the youths, integrating them in society by establishing a personal relationship and promoting interventions. More than once, the SEW have to cope with complex tasks in their work. Moreover, they encounter professional and personal difficulties leading to a sense of frustration, failure, and rejection. A high perception of self-efficacy enables the SEWs to experience the difficulties as challenges, believing that they can promote these youths and attain success in their work, despite the difficulties. Conversely, SEWs with low perception of self-efficacy experience the difficulties as threats and believe less in the ability of the youths to change. This article examines the benefit and importance of another variable that facilitates the work with youths in situations of risk, as such, it may contribute to the perception of self-efficacy, the attachment style of socio-educational workers, when at the core of their work these workers must build a safe and beneficial relationship and be a significant adult for youths at-risk.

An Analysis of Youth Behavior on Social Networks During the COVID-19 Pandemic. Evidence from Romania

Author(s): Andreea Barbu / Language(s): English Issue: S.I. 1/2020

The year 2020 represents a year of balance for both the economic and the social environment. Since March 2020, when the World Health Organization declared a state of pandemic for COVID-19, everything has changed for people's personal or professional lives. Information about the new virus is spread globally, through the authorities, television, specialized websites, or even social networks. Given that social networks were heavily used even before the COVID-19 pandemic, it is interesting to investigate how they were used during the pandemic by users. The goal of this paper is to determine how young people used social networks during this period. In this sense, quantitative research has been developed based on a questionnaire that was addressed to the 4th year students specializing in Engineering and Business Management at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest. The pilot study presented in this paper investigates a sample of young people from Bucharest, Romania, analyzing the reasons why young people use social networks when it comes to the situation of the new virus, but also the reasons why they now use social networks, following their new behavior on these platforms during this period. Also, the paper analyses the time spent by respondents on social networks before the pandemic and after it started. According to this study, Twitter, Skype, and Facebook are the most used social networks during the quarantine days. Young people use the most of social networks for relaxation, while when they use Instagram, they often end up buying things that they see posted there.

Author(s): Jianqing LI / Language(s): English Issue: 72/2021

Analiza krytyczna mechanizmów konsultacji on-line Komisji Europejskiej oraz europejskiej inicjatywy obywatelskiej a propozycje na rzecz zwiększenia partycypacji publicznej w Polsce

Author(s): Radosław Potorski,Rafał Willa / Language(s): English,Polish Issue: 02/2018

A high level of public participation is a much desired state of affairs as it entails numerous benefits for the participants of the political system. Citizens gain access to legislative procedures, can express their opinions often backed by expert knowledge, have a sense of co-responsibility for the ongoing developments,etc. The authorities, in turn, without any serious weakening of their monopoly on decisions, gain access to, among others, expert knowledge, the possibility to build a broader social consensus around their actions and in this way avoid the danger of political turbulence in the form of mass protests. The problem, however, lies in the fact that such participation both at the EU and domestic level is far below the desired degree – for very different reasons citizens do not join in those processes. This inadequacy has in a way forced decision-making centers to undertake various initiatives aimed at improving the state of things. The article is anattempt to answer the question: which of the remarks and conclusions related to the introduction of twoessential mechanisms of participation at the EU’s supranational level can be implemented into the state system of the Republic of Poland.

Analiza porównawcza metod pomiaru postaw respondentów

Author(s): Mirosława Kaczmarek,Piotr Tarka / Language(s): Polish Issue: 08/2013

The article deals with the issue of obtaining high-accuracy measurement of the attitudes of respondents using ordinal scales with different numbers of degrees. Two methods of research – ordinal scales 5- and 7-stage were considered. The key issue was to decide which of these methods can provide a higher level of accuracy in the results. For this purpose, the data collected in a survey of students were compared. The analysis of both types of scales with different numbers of response options included attitudes of the respondents to their value system. The authors indicated the usefulness of the measurement methods, regardless of the number of degrees of the used scale.

ANALIZA REPREZENTĂRII SOCIALE A CERSETORULUI ÎN ROMÂNIA, ÎN FUNCTIE DE GEN SI VÂRSTĂ

Author(s): Carina Herbei,Monica Albu,Carmen Vasar / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 13/2015

Through this research we aimed to identify the similarities and differences between men and women, and between two groups of age (19–35 years and 36–65 years) in terms of the social representation of the beggar, in Romania. We used four samples of participants, formed depending on gender and age: 26 men aged between 19 and 35 years, 31 women aged between 19 and 35 years, 30 men aged between 36 and 65 years and 31 women aged between 36 and 65 years. We established that, for all the samples, the content of the social representation of the beggar is the same, beeing built-up by nine terms: poor; compassion; lazy; dirty; with disabilities, ill; person who pretends; homeless; exploited (put by others to beg), and gipsy. The central node of the social representation, in all the samples, is the term poor. However, the structure of the social representation differs between the samples.
