Analiza rozwoju Sieradza na podstawie interpretacji zdjęć lotniczych i waloryzacji przestrzeni z wykorzystaniem elementów teorii zbiorów rozmytych

Author(s): Mariola Matuszewska,Krzysztof Będkowski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 4/2019

The spread of cities poses a serious urbanisation and natural challenge and significantly affects the quality of life of the inhabitants. The aim of the study was to examine the possibility of analysing the spread of the city of Sieradz based on the interpretation of multi-temporal aerial imagery from the years 1959, 1996 and 2015, and the topographical object database. There are 22 land cover classes that are attributed with coefficients determining their degree of belonging to the urban use of space. The area of the city is divided into hexagonal primary fields (1 ha) and the proportion of different forms of land use is determined and the M indicator calculated, which determines to what extent each primary field belongs to the urban way of space use. The primary fields were than classified into three zones: urban (0.5 < M ≤ 1.0), transitional (0.3 ≤ M ≤ 0.5) or rural (0 ≤ M < 0.3). Maps of the increment of this indicator in the test periods were made also. In the city there were consistently predominant areas with a rural nature of space use, because Sieradz has a large share of farmland, grassy vegetation, woodland and trees, orchards, plantations and gardens. Over time, however, the city area of typical urban use is increasing, which is mainly in the central and eastern part of the city and is clearly approaching its southern border, confirming the expansion of urban development to peripheral areas. By the year 1996 the growth of the M indicator took place mainly in the central part of the city, and in the next period revealed the clear “islands” of this growth quite distant from the centre. During the period 1959–1996 in Sieradz an early stage of the development of urban sprawl is noticeable – mainly progressive construction near the railway. However, in later years, the increase in accessibility to car transport was the cause of a deeping phenomenon of “urban sprawl” into the peripheral areas, causing a lively development of the suburbs. Studies have shown that urban sprawl also applies to mid-sized cities and confirms the suitability of archive aerial imagery and studies made using fuzzy sets theory to analyse the urban sprawl. The method used is relatively simple to use and can be fully automated.

Applying Big Data Analysis to Discuss the Elderly Social Welfare Service Use Condition and the Relevant Factors

Author(s): Zhi-Ping HOU,Zhi-Fei CHEN,Yu-Zhou LUO / Language(s): English / Issue: 68/2020

The advance of medical technology and the change in living environment gradually prolong the life expectancy of humans to constantly increase the elderly population in the world. Relevant demands and problems derived from aging are therefore getting emphasized. To cope with the elderly needs, the government sequentially promotes welfare service. Nevertheless, it is still discovered that the welfare service use rate of the elderly is rather low, not achieving the estimated demand. Aiming at the elderly in Guilin, the data in this study are collected and analyzed from social welfare related open information platforms and the analyses and research, publications, or database of government agencies. The relevant data are integrated, analyzed, discussed, and applied to understand the effects of indicators and further activate the utilization of data. The research results show remarkable correlations between redisposing factors and service use condition, enabling factors and service use condition, and demand factors and service use condition. According to the results, suggestions are proposed, expecting to comprehensively understand the elderly social welfare service use conditions and identify the factors in the elderly service use so as to examine the match of the elderly welfare service with the elderly needs to develop the maximal function of social welfare service.

Art&science

Autoetnografia artystki realizującej projekty w laboratoriach biologicznych

Author(s): Karolina Żyniewicz / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 3/2017

The aim of the text is to present the use of the analytical autoethnographic method in studying the “art&science” phenomenon. It is attempt to show that the role of the artist can combine with the role of the ethnographer. The objects of study are the multilevel relations emerging during the realization of artistic projects in biological laboratories. These relations concern both humans (the artist, the scientists) and non-humans (laboratory organisms, equipment). On the basis of actor-network theory, the author presents how the liminal status of ethnographic research is modified when it connects with art. The form of conducting the research is both an example of activity in the art and science field and a new methodological proposal for the study of science and technology.

Attitudes of the student population and the Serbian intellectual diaspora members about the causes and consequences of the Serbian “brain drain” phenomenon

An Overview of the Results of the Empirical Research

Author(s): Dragana Lj. Mitrović / Language(s): English,Serbian / Issue: 1/2020

Currently unfolding before us is the process of globalization, which has led to the networking of the global society and the intensification of transnational mobility of human educational capital. In the conditions of regional and class division, the process of asymmetrical globalization is also reflected in the unequal labour exchange in the gray matter market between countries belonging to different areas of the global world system. Of course, Serbia today is also under the effect of the aforementioned process. The subjects of this paper are the global, regional and national causes and consequences of the brain drain from Serbia and the innovative-creative potential of the Serbian intellectual diaspora for the development of Serbia and the protection of its interests in the contemporary world. This research is of a multidisciplinary character – sociological-demographical, ethno-culturological and communicological. Following the dictates of the so-called integral paradigm, efforts have been made to obtain valid results for scientific conclusions through a unity of theoretical problematization and synthesis of the results derived from empirical research. The paper consists of the analysis and interpretation of the results of empirical research done on the topic of causes and consequences of the brain drain, as well as the potential of the Serbian intellectual diaspora, conducted on a two-fold sample: one part consisting of the student population of Serbia and the other of the Serbian intellectual diaspora. The focus of the research was on the beliefs of the respondents regarding the motives, causes and consequences of the brain drain happening in Serbia, as well as the motives and the possibilities for the return to the native country. The sample consists of more than 950 respondents (545 students from Serbia and 413 diaspora members). The results of the research have shown that students and members of the Serbian intellectual diaspora hold identical beliefs regarding the perception of the main cause behind the brain drain in Serbia, with both groups citing the economic underdevelopment of the country and low levels of the quality of life, with both of the aforementioned factors influencing the ability to keep cadres within the country or to encourage their return. Of course, this fact is also conditioned by, among other things, the level of Serbia’s involvement in the processes of globalization, as well as by its position in the contemporary division of labour. The very end of the paper also highlights the program of possible measures and recommendations which have an action-oriented character, for the purpose of resolving this problem and creating a new policy regarding diaspora.

Aukštesnės vidurinės klasės skyrimo kriterijai

Author(s): Meilutė Taljūnaitė / Language(s): Lithuanian / Issue: 4/2019

Each country has its own criteria for the upper middle class. On the other hand, it is clear that even the general principles that define the middle class in different countries differ markedly between them. The US and British criteria are often compared. The role of the family as an element of social stratification is important in the British upper middle class model. The article advocates the influence of family stratification on the formation of the upper (and not only) middle class in Lithuania. Not only does the upper middle class have self-employment, its income is above average and it has higher education, it also influences, identifies trends and fundamentally shapes public opinion (an aspect of its ‘social role’). The broad upper middle class is not so much a guarantor of the welfare state but of social stability in the country.

Autobiography-Biography-Narration. Research Practice for Biographical Perspectives

Author(s): / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2014

This volume includes eight complementary articles that relate to the empirical, methodological, analytical, interpretive and theoretical aspects of the narrative-biographical research. The basic linking assumption of these works is a departure from the trend, still dominant in Poland and especially visible in the social sciences, modeled on the ideas taken from the natural sciences. The co-authors of Autobiography―Biography―Narration, positioning themselves between their source areas of knowledge (pedagogy, psychology, anthropology, sociology and literary studies) and a transdisciplinary auto/biographical research plane, pick up as their starting point the processual perspective of the socio-cultural world, whose central element is the active subject as the creator of his/her own biography. Suchassumptions (expressed explicitly and implicitly) provided the basis forreports on the Authors’ own research projects (cf. in particular the textsby Karolina Dudek and Anna Kurpiel) and a framework for ordering the purely theoretical aspects of narrative-biographical studies (cf. the articleby Katarzyna Gajek).

Based on Environmental Management to Discuss the Effect of Food Service Businesses’ Social Responsibility on Environmental Performance

Author(s): Chih-Hung PAI,Wen-Cheng WANG,Ching-Hwa YU,Hongwei XU / Language(s): English / Issue: 68/2020

When the public gets busy at work, a lot of people are used to eating out to solve the trouble with having meals. It therefore booms food service. Food service presents the responsibility to provide people with healthy food and environment and is the most important and the best place to promote food safety and hygiene. Food hygiene is an important part in nutrition education and reveals close relationship with people’s physical and mental health. Aiming at food service employees in Fujian Province, total 500 copies of questionnaire are distributed, with random sampling, in this study. 348 valid copies are retrieved, with the retrieval rate 70%. The retrieved questionnaire data are analyzed with statistical software. The research results show remarkable correlations between environmental management and social responsibility, social responsibility and environmental performance, and environmental management and environmental performance. According to the results, suggestions are proposed, expecting to help food service businesses present correct food hygiene cognition, attitude, and behavior, deliver correct information to food service employees, and become the learning model of food service employees. It would improve the public food hygiene and promote national health.

Belarusian Millennials: A Generation Gap?

Author(s): Larisa Grigoryevna Titarenko / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2019

The authors focus on the generation of young Belarusian Millennials represented in this research by the students born in 1995–2000. Their main features include political indifference, everyday use of IT technologies, individualism and rational life attitudes. Taking into account both objective and subjective characteristics of this generation, the authors argue that it demonstrates a significant shift in societal development of Belarus. Under the social and cultural conditions of stability and political conservatism, the ‘silent revolution’ took place: Millennials transcoded the traditional values of the previous Soviet generations. The conceptualization of this phenomenon cannot be made only on the basis of quantitative data not capturing the new tendencies in youth development. The authors combine qualitative and quantitative methods that enhance a possibility to measure new meanings the youth puts into the basic values. This approach made it possible to discover the new youth features that may affect Belarusian development in the near future: its ambivalent self-identification, dominance of pragmatism and individualism. This phenomenon can be considered as a spontaneous reflection to the challenges that Belarus was facing during the post-Soviet transformation.
