“Greying population”: Economic, social, and ethical appreciation of old age

“Greying population”: Economic, social, and ethical appreciation of old age

Author(s): Mieczysław Gałuszka / Language(s): English Issue: 5/2018

As the population is growing older, sociologists and economists are becoming more interested in analyzing this phenomenon. There are two paradigms for interpreting old age. The first one points to excluding old people from social and economic life. It is argued that there should be a balance between activities and possibilities of old people. The other paradigm points to the social, political and economic activities of old people until the end of their lives. It emphasizes their life experience and competencies. The article presents new processes and socio-cultural phenomena that refer to seniors. Some of them are negative like ageism, social isolation, deprivation, the uncertainty of fate and existence. Others are positive and described as “the cult of age” like the dynamic expansion of the grey people industry, development of health care and consumer projects for the elderly. The article argues that the sense and dignity of life of the elderly should be defended, as it is the main motivation and reason for living.

„Doregulacja”. Nieprecyzyjność prawa jako nowa przyczyna wyznaczania standardów postępowania przez organizacje branżowe w procesie samoregulacji

Author(s): Robert Sroka / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2019

Over the last few years, a change has been noticed in the approach to shaping legal regulations in the economic field, and this has become the motive for a new approach to self-regulation. The change consists in the fact that the legislator mainly defines the purpose of a regulation, the regulatory framework, and the sanctions. However, it does not contain specific provisions indicating how an economic entity should fulfill the purpose of a given regulation. Thus, it leaves the broad sphere undefined. The legislator indicates what is expected, what the sanction for non-compliance will be, but it does not indicate exactly how business owners should achieve this compliance. The aim of the article is to describe a new trend of self-regulation, from the perspective of the role that industry organizations can play. Three examples of new acts in the field of commercial law are analyzed, which are characterized by a lack of clarity and are part of the case-law framework. Two initiatives of an industry organization which clarify unclear legal provisions are pointed out. The analyses make it possible to state that the industry organizations are able to take responsibility for interpretations of imprecise regulations in the field of commercial law. The organizations are also able to set standards of conduct and develop industry self-regulation so that they are respected by the industry and the legislator as a response to the new model of shaping the law.

„Kawałek niezafałszowanej przyrody”. Analiza retoryki dietetyki zwierzęcej

„Kawałek niezafałszowanej przyrody”. Analiza retoryki dietetyki zwierzęcej

Author(s): Justyna Schollenberger / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2014

The article presents an analysis of textual and iconographic narration of the BARF pet diet based on raw meat and bones. The main assumption of BARF is that such diet is “natural”. The problem arises when we ask about the criteria of naturalness with reference to domestic cats and dogs. A praise of pets as natural carnivores and predators and eulogy of their joy of eating bloody meat could be seen as a potential praise of the wild opposed to the social. It is nevertheless softened by highly narrativized diet discourse. Rapacity and carnivorousness is limited here only to the pet’s diet and it doesn’t include social needs and behaviours. BARF diet supporters could be seen also as food activists as they oppose to the politics of great pet food companies. Highly processed commercial meat food is opposed here to the wholesome raw meat. One can see that the project of the “return to nature” provided by caring owners feeding their pets with bloody meat chunks is mediated here by cultural context. In the article I analyse the rethoric of such “return to nature” with reference to Lévi‑Strauss, Lorenz, Belasco, Haraway.

„Srebrna gospodarka” w kontekście społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu

Author(s): Monika Szewczyk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2017

Corporate social responsibility is a concept responding to the climate change, environmental problems and the needs of stakeholders. Business makes an effort to act in the changing conditions, thus adapting to the expectations of the stake holders and following the principles of sustainable economic development and social responsibility. One of the changes taking place in the current economic and social world is the change in the demographic structure of the population. The subject of aging population is being discussed, usually as a negative aspect in the context of changes in the pension system, health care costs or conditions of employment of older people. The principles of corporate social responsibility, such associal inclusion, anti-discrimination and facilitating access to products and services create the basis for the development of the economy, focused on the use of purchasing potential of older people. Thus, the perception of the demographic changes in this context becomes the ground for the formation of perspective solutions and development of the silver economy. This model of the economy can be understood as a system, which is based on adapting the production and distribution of products and services to older people. The main aim of this article is to present the challenges for companies in terms of the problems connected with an aging population, as well as to present the main features of the concept of the silver economy in the context of corporate social responsibility. Moreover, considering the development of the silver economy, there should be taken into account the characteristics of older people as consumers. In this context, there area lot of stereotypes associated with the activity of the elderly. The article also notes the profile of potential customers of the silver economy, with a particular emphasis on the approach of the elderly to innovation, tradition and a widely understood sense of security.

„Визия“ за свят без обща визия

Author(s): Boyan Durankev / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The reasons concerning the changes in the world are analysed, that have occurred without a vision for development. It has been proven that negative changes are the product of neoliberism and not of the „ real socialism ”. The neoliberal capitalism is left out in the present but the dream about it has died in the past. We are witnesses of the end of the neoliberal determination. We are in a world without a vision of the future. The possible scenarios for this option of a „ world without common vision” are indeed apocalyptic: catastrophic demographic growth; ecological disaster; constant open and covered wars between groups of countries and individual countries for resources and „living areas”, weak economic growth. The outcome of this apocalyptic scenario can be found in the design of the world „vision“. A model for transforming the European Union into self-developing system is proposed.

УТИЦАЈ ПРАВНЕ СИГУРНОСТИ НА СТРАНЕ ДИРЕКТНЕ ИНВЕСТИЦИЈЕ И ПРИВРЕДНИ РАЗВОЈ

Author(s): Jovana Brašić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 77/2017

Foreign direct investment is one of the most important factors of economic development in modern business conditions. The growing importance of foreign direct investments is conditioned by the processes of globalization, integration and liberalization of market conditions of business operations. It has been further prompted by numerous activities of the state importing capital with the aim of improving the business climate and stimulating the inflow of foreign capital. The most important segment of the overall business environment is legal safety, as a fundamental principle for all democratic countries. Legal safety contributes to accelerating the inflow of foreign direct investment. The author points to the link between legal safety and foreign direct investment, as well as their impact on economic development, based on the assumption that if there is no legal safety, there are no foreign investments. Therefore, bearing in mind the importance of foreign direct investments, the author analyzes the impact of legal safety on their inflow, the constraints related to attaining legal safety in the Republic of Serbia, as well as the indication of the indirect operation of legal safety on the economic development of states.

Фінансові засади соціальної відповідальності підприємств

Фінансові засади соціальної відповідальності підприємств

Author(s): Vladimir Gamaliy,Olexsandr Koshik,Nina Leginkova / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 25/2014

The article should analyze the situation when the state regulatory policy actually hampers the development of enterprises, leading to significant losses in carrying out even the simplest of transactions. It negatively affects the financial performance, including the income. We need to consider ways in which companies can implement socially responsible activities only if for this they have appropriate financial resources. Therefore, the absence of favorable for business development of regulatory policy is one of the factors inhibiting social responsibility of Ukrainian enterprises. The article analyzes the financial framework of corporate social responsibility in the transformation period of transition from a centrally planned to a market economy , as well as at the present stage . Connection of the social responsibility of business with the financial activity of Ukrainian enterprises is defined, as well as the possibility of using foreign experience in the Ukrainian realities. It is obvious that the change of concepts of CSR towards the economic motivation for its implementation would not take place if there was no real positive impact of strengthening the social functions of companies on their financial situation. We can distinguish the following main factors of influence: stimulation of personnel to maximize their labor due to increasing the interest in the outcome of companies, increasing human potential; advancing the competitiveness of companies in the labor market, the possibility of attracting the most qualified employees; reduction of financial losses due to companies creating the conditions to prevent industrial action; improving the company's image in the eyes of customers, suppliers and authorities, as well as the value of its brands, that has particular importance in terms of the growing role of intangible assets of companies that is recorded in the world last decade; increasing the investment attractiveness due to making them more transparent economic activities in the framework of CSR (it has a partly positive impact on raising funds by issuing of securities in the implementation of IPO); CSR standards take into account some of the rating agencies in determining the rankings of companies that in some way affect the financial results of their activity. The foregoing allows us to conclude that the development of the social functions at the level of individual enterprises, the enhancing of their social responsibility corresponds the tendencies inherent in the developed countries. It can be considered as one of the important directions of improving the financial situation of industrial enterprises in Ukraine.

Христо Райков – предприемач и индустриалец (1896–1967)

Author(s): Ivan Postompirov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2021

Hristo Raykov is an example of a rapidly getting rich industrialist. He was born in the village of Dalboki Tomchevtsi, Tryavna region, Dryanovo district, in 1896 in a poor family. From a very young age he focused on independent trade in wool and fabrics. In 1924 he settled permanently in Gabrovo. Having accumulated enough capital, the ambitious entrepreneur directs his interests to the industry to close the cycle of supply and processing of wool to the final product. In 1927 he was already a major shareholder and director of a textile factory. Hristo Raykov walked the path to wealth for twenty years – from a small trader, he managed to become the owner of factories in Gabrovo, Sliven and Sofia, for which companies work throughout the country. In 16 years he has increased its capital from BGN 5 million to BGN 200 million. Hristo Raykov is a man without special education, but with great ambition, will and energy, a man who does not trust accountants and directors. With the famous Gabrovo thrift, he personally manages his enterprises, knows the production in detail, knows what is done in every corner of his factories, always strives to be first. Maybe that’s why he earned the nickname “The Bulgarian Henry Ford” of his time. The nationalization on December 23, 1947 found him with assets of over BGN 1 billion.
