A STUDY OF PLACE AND IDENTITY: THE MAIN FEATURES OF DISTINCTIVE PLACE BRAND IDENTITY

A STUDY OF PLACE AND IDENTITY: THE MAIN FEATURES OF DISTINCTIVE PLACE BRAND IDENTITY

Author(s): Lolita Ozoliņa / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2021

Place branding as an integral part of competitive place development strategy became a relevant topic for urban and rural municipalities in Latvia relatively recently, at the beginning of 2000. In particular, the issue of narrative exploration of place identities in Latvia has become a key subject, linked to sustainable demonstrations of the attractiveness of places, and the listing of their unique benefits in order to increase economic value and improve social welfare for place residents and other stakeholders. The article seeks answers to a range of interdisciplinary research questions related to the topic of place branding: how can a place brand identity be created that is relevant to place residents and expresses the distinctiveness of the place; what are the main features of belonging to place; and what intangible and/or tangible attributes of the place can provide an authentic and convincing identity narratives for place brands? The empirical part of the article is based on a qualitative research methodology, indepth semi-structured interviews with place branding experts, and analysis of the content of brand identities of Latvian cities and regions. The article reveals how place branding as a strategic marketing process is managed by local municipalities and involved stakeholders, provides a critical view of local practices and strengthens appreciation of one of the most important reference stages of the place-branding development process: cooperation in finding the key narratives for place identities.

A Survey of Subjective Opinions of Population about Seismic Resistance of Residential Buildings

A Survey of Subjective Opinions of Population about Seismic Resistance of Residential Buildings

Author(s): Dunja Bajrami Demirović,Kristina T. Košić,Vasile Surd,Lejla Žunić,Yulia A. Syromiatnikova / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2017

The unpredictability and the seriousness of the potential earthquake consequences for people and residential buildings in Serbia imply the need for improving the resilience of local communities. The paper presents the results of a quantitative research regarding the level and factors of influence on the awareness of citizens about the seismic resistance of their residential buildings to earthquake consequences. Multiple-point random sampling was used to survey 1,018 citizens (face to face) during 2017 in 8 local communities: Kraljevo, Lazarevac, Jagodina, Mionica, Prijepolje, Vranje, Lapovo and Kopaonik. The questionnaire consisted of two segments: questions on demographic, socio-economic and psychological characteristics of respondents and questions regarding resistance of residential buildings to earthquake consequences. The results show that 35% of respondents state that they live in residential buildings that are not resistant to earthquakes, while 70.7% state that they live in buildings built of reinforced concrete, which are considered safe. Beside that 9.2% of respondents examined the resistance of their facilities to earthquake consequences. Inferential statistical analyses show that men to a greater extent than women state that their buildings are resistant to earthquake consequences. Starting from the multidimensionality of citizen vulnerability to earthquakes, it is necessary to conduct additional studies and further elucidate the sociological dimension of vulnerability and resilience.

A systematic review of flukes (Trematoda) of domestic goose (Anser anser dom.)

A systematic review of flukes (Trematoda) of domestic goose (Anser anser dom.)

Author(s): F. H. Rzayev / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2021

Trematodes are one of the most numerous and widespread groups of parasitic invertebrates among helminths, characterized by a complex life cycle. As the final host, digenetic flukes parasitize vertebrates, including domestic waterfowl. Infection of hosts with parasitic digenetic worms causes huge economic damage to poultry. But trematode fauna of domestic geese are presented mainly only for individual regions. Despite the fact that there is already a systematic review of tapeworms and acanthocephala of domestic birds - geese and ducks, there are, unfortunately, no review articles on the taxonomy of digenetic flukes for geese (Anser anser dom.). Taking into account the relevance of the topic, based on our own and extensive literature data, we set the task to determine the general species composition of digenetic flukes (Trematoda), parasitizing in domestic geese which have been recorded in the world until 2020. Each Trematoda species is provided with the following data: scientific name, authority and year, first, second intermediate, auxiliary and final hosts, site in the host body, collecting localities and geographic distribution, and literature sources. Currently it is established that there are 149 species of helminths parasitising domestic geese. The taxonomic composition of the class Trematoda registered in domestic geese consists of 2 classes, 14 families, 30 genera and 65 species. Of all the species of trematodes parasitizing in domestic geese, 44 species have been recorded in Europe, 26 species in Asia, 6 species in North America, 1 species in South America, 1 species in Africa and 2 species in Oceania. Three species are registered in domestic geese (Echinoparyphium recurvatum, Echinostoma revolutum, Prosthogonimus ovatus) are cosmopolitan parasites. The biggest species diversity is characterized by the families Echinostomatidae (17 species) and Notocotylidae (12 species). There are 11 species of digenetic flukes recorded in domestic geese Cyclocoelum mutabile, Echinostoma grande, E. paraulum, E. revolutum, E. robustum, Hypoderaeum conoideum, Paryphostomum novum, P. pentalobum, Catatropis verrucosa, Notocotylus attenuatus, N. parviovatus) on the territory of Azerbaijan. Four of them (Echinostoma revolutum, Hypoderaeum conoideum, Paryphostomum novum, Notocotylus attenuatus) were also noted in the course of our helminthological studies. The trematode Cyclocoelum mutabile was recorded in domestic ducks only in Azerbaijan. Most species of trematodes were found in the north-eastern part (total 9 species) and southern part (total 5 species) of Azerbaijan. This is due to the widespread distribution of molluscs - intermediate hosts of digenetic flukes, in these regions. Eighteen species of digenetic flukes parasitize both birds and mammals (Rodentia, Carnivora, Lagomorpha, Artiodactyla). And eleven species of trematodes are of medical importance, registered in humans.

A Theban tomb of the late Third Intermediate Period on El-Khokha

Author(s): Gábor Schreiber,Zsolt Vasáros / Language(s): English Issue: 1-3/2005

The profound social changes occuring under the late Ramessides and the early years of the Libyan rule have not remained without an effect on Egyptian material culture. One of the best indicators of this phenomenon is funerary art and, more specifically, the funerary artefacts retrieved from the tombs of the Theban necropolis. Although the material from regional cemeteries in Middle Egypt, the Delta and especially the royal necropolis at Tanis also provides valuable data to a better understanding of the characteristics of this change, it is only at Thebes that a vast sequence of tomb groups preserved by favorable climatic conditions can serve as a basis for more elaborate studies yielding a compass for the assessment of contemporary corpora throughout Egypt. The significance of the Theban material was already recognised by early scholars following the discovery of tomb groups in Deir el-Bahari, the Ramesseum and other sites at Thebes. More recent investigations have also convincingly shown that the period between the 11th and mid-7th c. BC is far from being homogeneous with regard to cultural patterns and paradigms expressed in material culture. Relying on typological studies of various genres of this material,2 the production of the 21st and early 22nd dynasties is now safely distinguishable from the preceding and successive Theban corpora. The present study offers a summary of the digging activities carried out in a mortuary complex that dates to the second part of the Third Intermediate Period, i.e., the late 22nd and 25th dynasties.

A Theotokos lamp from Antioch-on-the-Orontes in the Archaeological Museum of Hatay (southeastern Turkey)

A Theotokos lamp from Antioch-on-the-Orontes in the Archaeological Museum of Hatay (southeastern Turkey)

Author(s): Ergün Lafli,Maurizio Buora / Language(s): English Issue: XXVIII/2019

Pilgrims returning home during the early Byzantine period carried with them numerous objects with sacred inscriptions. In Jerusalem—and in Syria—terracotta oil lamps were made with a specific formula of blessing mentioning both the Blessed Virgin as Theotokos and a certain John whose identification either with a saint or the manufacturer of these lamps remains unclear. The Archaeological Museum of Hatay in southeastern Turkey holds a lamp of this type, probably dating to the 6th century AD or shortly thereafter.

ABOUT THE ORIGINS OF MODERN GEOECONOMIC FOUNDATIONS OF GEORGIA

Author(s): Shota Veshapidze,Tamaz Zubiashvili / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2020

Georgia is a country with a favorable geographical location, soil, climate conditions, natural and civilization resources, culture, human capital. Georgia is at the ancient transport crossroads which connected and connecting the countries of the North and South, West and East. The old Silk Road was the main artery crossing the country and connecting Europe and Asia. Georgia borders the Black Sea. To the east, via Azerbaijan, the country has historically been linked to the Caspian Sea and then to Central and Eastern Asia. Such a location provides the country with favorable conditions for the development of the international economy as well as the economy as a whole. However, Georgia often did not use these favorable conditions. For many centuries, the country struggled for physical and spiritual survival. The country often lacked the necessary historical function, which is completely defined by the historical function of the country in the international political, economic, cultural and religious system. The situation has changed since Georgia has firmly taken the way towards Euro-Atlantic values. It is now important for Georgia to perform the function of transport corridor, including not only the movement of energy carriers. As a result of the reinforcement of integration processes, the United States, NATO and the European Union have become key strategic partners of the country. Georgia is becoming the center of economic and political interests of various world powers. The government of Georgia, its strategic partners and international investors have developed projects on Anaklia deepwater port, as well as Poti port and on the increase of the Batumi terminal’s international transit potential, and other major projects that represent a long-term guarantee of stakeholders interests. Georgia has become an associated member of the European Union. Citizens of the country are already enjoying visa-free travel and free trade with Europe. It forged relations with its strategic ally, the United States. Georgian citizens gained the right to legal employment in European countries by their respective professional qualifications. In such a geo-economic context we can think of ways to move Georgia forward. With such an approach, the country will play an important role in the pursuit of Euro-Atlantic policy in the Caucasus sub-region as well as in the interests of traditional partners and other countries in the region.

ACCESSIBILITY OF PUBLIC SERVICES IN THE ISLANDS REGION (CASE STUDY: OFFICE OF POPULATION AND CIVIL REGISTRY, WEST HALMAHERA REGENCY)

Author(s): Yulinda Uang,Yopie Warella,Endang Larasatisri Suwitri / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2020

This study aims to analyze the quality of public services in the archipelago. Public services in the archipelago are not getting much attention from the government; the problem is limited access to public services. The method is used in this study is a qualitative method. Access is an important benchmark in the success of public service delivery. Geographically, the islands located in West Halmahera district have different challenges from other regions, because they have to deal directly with the sea. The range of public services depends on waves. It also requires transportation costs that can burden the community. The impact of the difficult reach that must be taken by the community, resulting in public services felt far for the community. Special policy for public services in the archipelago as a form of improving the quality of public services to facilitate the public in accessing public services provided by local governments.

Across Haimos: Inconveniences and Dangers in Crossing the Mountains of Bulgaria in the Middle Ages

Across Haimos: Inconveniences and Dangers in Crossing the Mountains of Bulgaria in the Middle Ages

Author(s): Kirił Marinow / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2018

The location and terrain of the Haimos Mountains (in modern terms, consisting primarily of the massifs of the Stara Planina and the Sredna Gora) were a natural barrier to travellers and troops intending to move from north to south, from south to north, or along the famous via militaris, passing through the eastern half of what is now designated as the Balkan Peninsula. The Stara Planina divides the Danubian Plain from the southern regions of Illyria and Thrace, while the Sredna Gora separates the latter two from each other. In the past, these mountains were difficult to cross because of bad weather conditions, including sudden thunderstorms, thermal inversions and mountain rivers overflowing with spring meltwaters. The thick snow cover, which extended to the lower parts of the massifs in winter, created a lot of difficulties even for locals, who knew the terrain very well, but considerably more so for outsiders, who were practically unable to traverse it at that time of the year. The Byzantines were evidently often discouraged from crossing, partly because the image of these mountains and their inhabitants, particularly among members of Byzantine elites, was formed by readings of classical literature and knowledge of past military losses suffered by the Empire in the region. Stories of brigands ravaging the area also played a part, diffused as they were among soldiers and the ordinary populace by oral tradition or devotional literature, such as saints’ lives. Analysis of geographical facts and historical sources demonstrates that the Haimos was a dominant geographical feature in the region during the Middle Ages. It was a natural dividing line and a reference for the location of individual territories. It is not surprising therefore that Byzantine military troops and travellers heading northwards wanted to avoid crossing that difficult area and risking ambush; instead, they readily used the sea route along the eastern coast of Thrace and Moesia or instigated various nomadic peoples to invade the Bulgarian-populated lands from the north.

AFA “RUGOVA” - VATËR E MADHE E RUAJTJES SË EPOSIT TË KRESHNIKËVE

Author(s): Zymer Ujkan Neziri / Language(s): Albanian Issue: 51/2021

AFA "Rugova" is an artistic symbol of this region and a rare ethnocultural institution that has popularized the lute and lute players in our area, Europe and beyond for 74 years. Therefore, in this paper I briefly present an overview of the lute players in the Rugova area, from the beginning of the establishment of AFA "Rugova" to the present generation at the beginning of this century. In this overview will be described and given many details from my work in the research project "The Legendary Epos of Rugova" (1979-1988). There were about 100 lute players in the Rugova area after the Second World War, and many of them were or are still are members of AFA "Rugova". I have been working with 45 Rugova’s lute players. When I started the research project "The Legendary Epos of Rugova" in 1979, there were collected about 20 thousand verses of the legendary epos, while when I finished it in 1988, the amount of recorded verses was over 100 thousand verses of about 300 songs and of over 40 units in prose, in 15 volumes. In addition to the lyrical and epic historical repertoire, these lute players have had many verses of legendary songs, perhaps as much as a quarter of the number of verses of the national fund, with about 400 thousand verses. This was the largest amount collected in an Albanian ethno-geographical area, since the time of G. Mayer onwards (1987). With the E5 Project in the Balkans (2012-2016), which includes Rugova as well and where there are about 100 thousand verses of the legendary epos, currently the national fund has about 600 thousand verses.

AFFAD 3.0/Cattle+. Field seasons 2017 and 2018 of the PalaeoAffad Project

Author(s): Marta Osypińska,Piotr Osypiński,Marek Chłodnicki,Michał Kuc,Paweł Wiktorowicz,Robert Ryndziewicz / Language(s): English Issue: XXVIII/2019

The first Affad was the one we saw when the archaeological sites there were first investigated at the beginning of the century. The second Affad, which is the region that we have been exploring in the past 15 years, bore many signs of modern Sudanese culture encroaching upon the desert. In 2009, an asphalt road cut through the desert and shortly thereafter, the Debba bridge and power lines were constructed, the latter coming from a hydroelectric power station on the Fourth Cataract. Affad 3.0 is what the location looks like today—extensive industrial-scale farms on terraces too far away for traditional agriculture. The investment has already caused irreversible destruction to the archaeological heritage. Cattle+ in the title of this article refers to new data on large ruminants. The discovery of auroch remains and the Neolithic cattle data are both extremely important proxies for the adaptation strategies of people inhabiting the Southern Dongola Reach in prehistory.

Afrykatyzacja *t’, *d’ > *ć, *ʒ’ na Pomorzu Zachodnim w świetle nazw miejscowych i terenowych

Afrykatyzacja *t’, *d’ > *ć, *ʒ’ na Pomorzu Zachodnim w świetle nazw miejscowych i terenowych

Author(s): Jerzy Duma / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2022

The article analyses the scope of the process of affricatization *t’, *d’ > *ć, *ʒ’ in Western Pomerania. Its gradual disappearance towards the west was confirmed – higher for the former *d’, smaller for the former *t’. In the old Slavic dialects of West Pomerania, as well as in the old Slavic dialects of Mecklenburg, East Holstein or in the dialect of Połabian Drzewians, there is no such affricatization in most local and field names, i.e. *t’ > t, *d’ > d. This may confirm the loss of accommodative pronunciation in these dialects. The lack of accommodative pronunciation before the vowels of the front row typologically brings these dialects closer to the following dialects and languages: Upper Sorbian, Czech and Slovak as well as the South Slavic languages. It is also partially similar the multiple of consonants before *e, *ě and *i in Ukrainian.

Agrotourism - Source of Income for the Rural Population

Author(s): Petrică Sorin Angheluță,Oleg Margina,Carmen Georgiana V. Badea / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2017

The article treats the rural environment of Romania, through developing the agro-tourism with its tourist villages. It highlights the features of agro-tourism in comparison with traditional tourism and the impact of it on local community and local economy as a source of revenues for its rural population. The Romania’s socio-economic development, according to the European standards and requirements, depends largely on rural area development, which is so significant for our country’s international recognition. The problem of the sustainable development of the rural areas constitutes a high priority for Romania in the quality of European Union’s member state. This supposes adopting of a coherent strategy that can realize a balance between the preservation demand of the economic, ecologic and socio-cultural area on one hand, and the tendency of life country modernization, on the other side.

Akdeniz Ülkelerinin Destinasyon Rekabetçilik Performanslarının Analizi: MAIRCA ve MARCOS Yöntemleri ile Bir Uygulama

Author(s): Furkan Fahri Altintaş / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 3/2021

In this research, the destination competitiveness performances of these countries were measured by MAIRCA and MARCOS methods over the values of the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index (TTCI) components of 19 Mediterranean basin countries for 2019. According to the findings, it was observed that Spain, France, Italy and Portugal were among the top four countries with the highest destination competitiveness performance, while Tunisia, Lebanon, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Algeria were among the last four countries within the scope of both methods.In addition, it has been determined that the destination competitiveness performance values of the countries within the scope of TTCI are more positively related to the destination competitiveness performance values of the countries determined by the MARCOS method compared to the MAIRCA method. Therefore, according to this result, it was concluded that TTCI can be better explained with the MARCOS method compared to the MAIRCA method.

AKMENINIAI GLUDINTI KIRVIAI LIETUVOJE. TIPOLOGIJOS IR TERMINOLOGIJOS PROBLEMOS

Author(s): Vygandas Juodagalvis / Language(s): Lithuanian Issue: 46/2020

During 1974–1978, the Lithuanian Institute of History published four volumes of the Lietuvos archeologijos atlasas (Atlas of Lithuanian Archaeology). The atlas’s first book, which was edited by Dr habil. Rimutė Rimantienė, was devoted to Stone and Bronze Age sites and stray finds from this period (Atlasas 1974). The separate article of this book (Bagušienė, Rimantienė 1974) encompassed all of the ground stone artefacts that had been mapped and were preserved at that time in Lithuanian museums. The work listed 2560 ground stone artefacts from 1420 find spots and created distribution maps, an index of the main types, and a typology scheme, which Lithuanian archaeologists and museologists have used for almost half a century. The typological scheme of ground stone artefacts created by Ona Bagušienė and Rimutė Rimantienė is seen not as an unalterable constant, but as a dynamic, modifiable classification structure. The article presents insights and thoughts that arose in creating a ground stone artefact database for SW Lithuania (Užnemunė). And examines the most abundant ground artefact typological group, perforated stone axes.

Aktywizacja i integracja mieszkańców gminy Konopnica w odniesieniu do mocnych i słabych stron (analiza SWOT)

Author(s): Beata Żuraw,Małgorzata Szymańska,Mirosław Żydek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2018

The Konopnica Commune, adjacent to the voivodeship capital Lublin, is of agricultural character. Due to transformations in the agricultural economy and inflow of population from the nearby city, the social sphere of life is gaining importance. One of the elements of its proper functioning is the developed network of non-governmental organisations and various forms of cooperation with the NGO environment. Many initiatives activating residents are implemented in the commune. The most interesting one is the international project “Promotion of land culture and preservation of historical heritage” conducted together with the Trembowla municipality in the Tarnopol oblast in Ukraine. The following associations are active in the area of the commune: Association Local Action Group for the Development of the Lublin Poviat “Kraina wokół Lublina”, 12 units of the Volunteer Fire Brigade, Association “Pracownia Twórczych Działań”, and Association “Skaut” with its seat in Lublin, implementing cultural-social workshops in the Konopnica Commune. Residents of the commune implement and develop passions in groups and artistic teams, including: singing group “Rola”, theatre group “Stacja Teatr”, ballet group “Arabeski”, group “Malarki z Konopnicy”, and a music band. Owing to the work of enthusiasts, cultural-social meetings are organised in the form of cyclical events and one-off actions. The cultural development is stimulated by cultural entities (“Dom Kultury” in Motycz, Commune Library and its branches, Ośrodek Działań Twórczych). The aforementioned advantages of the Konopnica Commune offer a chance for its development both in the socio-economic sphere and in terms of cultural-environmental heritage.

Aktywność Federacji Rosyjskiej w regionie Arktyki - wybrane problemy rywalizacji mocarstw

Author(s): Małgorzata Rzeszutko-Piotrowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2014

At the end of the Soviet Union the White Sea area was probably the most technologically advanced military infrastructure in the world. Despite the political and military changes in the Arctic, it remains an area of the military activity of such powers as Denmark, Canada and Russia. In all relevant documents showing the Russian vision of the policy, a reference is made to the Arctic. The priority was to defend Russian interests in the region, through the expansion and modernization of the fleet of icebreakers, limiting military activities of other countries and securing Russia’s position on the northern sea routes. In the so-called Arctic doctrine of the Russian Federation the key elements for the protection of the interests of Russia in the High North are the following: a security resource base, maintaining the Arctic as a zone of peace and cooperation, protecting the environment and the use of the northern sea routes.
