Gospodarski razvoj Goriške in Nove Gorice je v prvih dveh desetletjih in pol po 2. svetovni vojni v skladu s splošno usmeritvijo Jugoslavije v pospešeno industrializacijo temeljil na krepitvi ...industrije. V prvem obdobju okrevanja in odpravljanja zaostalosti (1947−1956) je ta potekala na temeljih skromne predvojne industrije in obrti, kasneje, v obdobju 1957−1969, pa na preseganju dotedanjih razvojnih anomalij ter na skladnejšem in bolj vsestranskem razvoju, znotraj katerega so večjo vlogo dobile do tedaj zapostavljene gospodarske panoge (kmetijstvo, gradbeništvo, promet, trgovina, obrt, turizem), in na hitrejšem razvijanju po vojni na novo vzpostavljenih industrijskih panog. Zaradi prekinitve navezanosti na italijansko politično in gospodarsko celoto in vstopa v jugoslovansko politično in gospodarsko celoto sta prostor in gospodarstvo Goriške doživljala precejšnjo selitveno dinamiko. Ta je močno zaznamovala in vplivala na povojni razvoj tako goriškega gospodarstva kot tudi novozgrajene Nove Gorice – novega upravno-političnega, gospodarskega in kulturnega središča Goriške.
Poduzetništvo, posebice mikro, malo i srednje prema EU nasljeđu u Republici Hrvatskoj ima ključnu ulogu u stvaranju novih radnih mjesta, ponajprije kroz modele samozapošljavanja, potom kao pokretanje ...inovativnih poslovnih modela koji su generatori proizvodnje. Šumarski sektor bilježi sve veći udio inovativnih inženjerskih usluga namijenjenih za državne i privatne šume. Glavno obilježje još uvijek najzastupljenijih vrsta poduzetničkih aktivnosti u šumarskom sektoru je primarna primjenjivost u državnim šumama na djelatnostima sječe, privlačenja i daljinskog transporta te potom na uzgojnim radovima. Institucije i potpore na državnoj i EU razini imaju ulogu poticanja novih poduzetnika kroz „start-up“ modele na pokretanje inovativnih poslovnih rješenja primjenjivih u cijelom šumarkom sektoru.
The introduction provides an overview of a wide range of definitions of entrepreneurship and a brief overview of the situation and issues through institutional and legislative review. The second chapter presents the key features of forestry entrepreneurship in the Republic of Croatia. The main indicators of improving services in the forestry sector through the use of entrepreneurial services are discussed. Emphasis was also placed on comparison with EU standards through small business. Subsection 2.1 provides an overview of entrepreneurial opportunities in the forestry sector with special emphasis on innovative activities in which young forestry professionals could find themselves in the business of improving existing products and services, new services and new products. The third chapter lists the elements of entrepreneurial infrastructure through their facilities and all assessed in Table 1 through a SWOT analysis which shows the characteristics of strengths and weaknesses as internal characteristics and opportunities and threats as external characteristics. Section 3.1 lists the entrepreneurial support institutions established under the Law of the Improvement of Entrepreneurial Infrastructure. Subsection 3.2 provides an institutional framework for entrepreneurship management through strategic documents and laws with their characteristics. Subsection 3.3 shows aid to entrepreneurs from the EAFRD Fund for Rural Development. Table 2 shows the types of operations intended for the forestry sector together with the business entities for which they are intended and the amount and intensity of support. Subchapter 3.4 shows the support provided by the Republic of Croatia for the development of entrepreneurial activities, primarily through the credit lines of the Hrvatska banka za obnovu i razvoj (HBOR) and HAMAG-BICRO. Table 3 shows the currently available HBOR credit lines which are used as a starting point for selecting the most applicable for the forestry sector. From the shown credit lines, three are compatible and potentially applicable in the forestry sector. At the same time, these lines are shown with their characteristics in Table 4. Furthermore, the Croatian Government Agency HAMAG-BICRO also encourages the establishment of the forestry sector through three models shown in Table 5 with its characteristics for a successful promotion of entrepreneurship. forestry. In the last chapter, instead of conclusions, the problem of the lack of mass of potential entrepreneurs, primarily from a population of young forestry professionals, is mentioned. This is due to the lack of consideration by forestry experts about entrepreneurship as an interesting option. The impetus for thinking about entrepreneurship is certainly the simplified establishment of a business entity and the growing number, although still an insufficient number of credit lines for newly established business entities.
From a Nobel Prize–winning pioneer in environmental economics, an innovative account of how and why "green thinking" could cure many of the world's most serious problems—from global warming to ...pandemics Solving the world's biggest problems—from climate catastrophe and pandemics to wildfires and corporate malfeasance—requires, more than anything else, coming up with new ways to manage the powerful interactions that surround us. For carbon emissions and other environmental damage, this means ensuring that those responsible pay their full costs rather than continuing to pass them along to others, including future generations. In The Spirit of Green, Nobel Prize–winning economist William Nordhaus describes a new way of green thinking that would help us overcome our biggest challenges without sacrificing economic prosperity, in large part by accounting for the spillover costs of economic collisions.In a discussion that ranges from the history of the environmental movement to the Green New Deal, Nordhaus explains how the spirit of green thinking provides a compelling and hopeful new perspective on modern life. At the heart of green thinking is a recognition that the globalized world is shaped not by isolated individuals but rather by innumerable interactions inside and outside the economy. He shows how rethinking economic efficiency, sustainability, politics, profits, taxes, individual ethics, corporate social responsibility, finance, and more would improve the effectiveness and equity of our society. And he offers specific solutions—on how to price carbon, how to pursue low-carbon technologies, how to design an efficient tax system, and how to foster international cooperation through climate clubs.The result is a groundbreaking new vision of how we can have our environment and our economy too.
How can small cities make an impact in a globalizing world dominated by ‘world cities’ and urban development strategies aimed at increasing agglomeration? This book addresses the challenges of ...smaller cities trying to put themselves on the map, attract resources and initiate development. Placemaking has become an important tool for driving urban development that is sensitive to the needs of communities. This volume examines the development of creative placemaking practices that can help to link small cities to external networks, stimulate collaboration and help them make the most of the opportunities presented by the knowledge economy. The authors argue that the adoption of more strategic, holistic placemaking strategies that engage all stakeholders can be a successful alternative to copying bigger places. Drawing on a range of examples from around the world, they analyse small city development strategies and identify key success factors. This book focuses on the case of ‘s-Hertogenbosch, a small Dutch city that used cultural programming to link itself to global networks and stimulate economic, cultural, social and creative development. It advocates the use of cultural programming strategies as a more flexible alternative to traditional top-down planning approaches and as a means of avoiding copying the big city.

Eden od glavnih razlogov za negativen odnos do migrantov je dejstvo, da obremenijo objekte in infrastrukturo gostiteljske skupnosti, sami pa veliko ne prispevajo h gospodarstvu in družbi države ...gostiteljice. Ta negativni odnos je močen zlasti v mestih, kjer je pritisk na javne dobrine zgoščen in opaznejši. Zato so migrantske soseske še posebej zaničevane. S tem stereotipnim pogledom se ne ujemajo izkušnje z migranti v okolici pokopališča Rookwood Cemetery v Sydneyju, ki velja za »največjo nekropolo na južni polobli«. V tej migrantski soseski potekajo živahne in raznovrstne dejavnosti (zlasti korejskih) migrantov, ki so za to območje, znano pod imenom Lidcombe, nekaj popolnoma novega. Na podlagi različnih virov, analiziranih z zgodovinsko-strukturnega vidika migracijskih študij, vključno z arhivskimi raziskavami v lokalnih knjižnicah, pogovori z dolgoletnimi prebivalci tega območja in vidno etnografijo, so v članku predstavljeni zgodovina Lidcomba in njegove izkušnje z migranti v 21. stoletju. Pri tem avtorja na podlagi demografskih, družbenih in geografskih sprememb poudarjata prispevek migrantov k prenovi »mrtvega mesta« in izpodbijata podedovane stereotipe, ki pogosto vodijo k rasistični obravnavi migrantov kot »grešnih kozlov« ter na podlagi katerih se migranti prikazujejo kot »paraziti« in »kriminalci«, ki »izčrpavajo« gospodarstvo države gostiteljice. Predstavljena študija primera kaže, da lahko migranti prostore, v katerih živijo, pogosto preoblikujejo tako, da pozitivno in dolgotrajno prispevajo h gospodarstvu in družbi države gostiteljice. Ta primer bi morale kot pomembno lekcijo upoštevati tako evropske države, ki se soočajo z »migrantsko krizo«, kot tudi politiki po svetu, ki želijo gostiteljska gospodarstva in družbe pred migranti zaščititi z zidovi.
This paper examines the effect of religion on the economic development of a group of selected nations. In that way, it compares confessional affiliation of population and religious influence on the ...economic development of observed countries. As a base for this research Mijo Mirković’s doctoral thesis was taken, which among other things deals with the religious influence on the lack of economic development of Slavic countries, and other relevant scientific papers. Also, the paper explores the issue of determining the direction between confessions and economic development. Furthermore, the constant struggle between religious and nonreligious is also analysed and observed, as well as the methods used by undeveloped or developed countries to solve this problem. Authors do not focus on the assumptions and claims about religion, but critically analyse the methodology of researching relations between religion and the economy from the perspective of economics. Although Mirković’s thesis served as the initial idea in later empirical works, it was analysed from different aspects and outcomes. Also, several empirical studies were taken into consideration which supports the mentioned thesis and those that analyse the problem of the effect of religious aspects on economic development with different conclusions.
Gospodarska i demografska slika Velebitskog primorja i podgorja nije dobra zbog
sljedećih uzroka: neatraktivnost reljefnog prostora s gospodarskog stanovišta, visok
stupanj zaštite okoliša što je ...poduzetniku dodatan trošak, nepovoljni uvjeti financiranja
poduzetništva ali i visok stupanj centralizacije države. Temeljni uzrok ovakvog ukupnog
gospodarskog stanja je mali broj i struktura stanovništva, odnosno nedovoljan radno aktivni
kontingent stanovništva. Postojeća starosna, dobna i obrazovna struktura stanovništva je
nepovoljna i nedovoljna za razvoj gospodarstva zbog demografskih promjena u prošlosti,
spore industrijalizacije, urbanizacije i deagrarizacije što je rezultiralo emigracijom i
depopulacijom. Nekada dominantne djelatnosti poljoprivreda, ribarstvo i stočarstvo,
zamijenili su turizam, trgovina i ugostiteljstvo, manje proizvodnja. Za gospodarski razvoj
ovoga prostora važni su Park prirode Velebit i nacionalni parkovi Sjeverni Velebit i
Paklenica koji kao prirodni resursi mogu utjecati na razvoj ekoproizvodnje, ekoturizma
i održivi razvoj.
V članku se preučujeta prostorsko-gospodarska podoba in neenakost na Tajskem na državni in regionalni ravni, pri čemer je posebna pozornost namenjena severovzhodni regiji med letoma 1987 in 2007. ...Avtor se v članku osredotoča na: 1. preučevanje gospodarskih razmer in neenakosti na državni ravni in v severovzhodni regiji na podlagi Theilovega indeksa neenakosti; 2. določanje regionalnih središč rasti in satelitskih mest na podlagi teorije polov rasti kot idejnega okvira in analize prostorske interakcije ter 3. analizo razmerja med regionalnimi središči rasti in satelitskimi mesti z vidika vpliva na rast in neenakost. Ugotavlja, da severovzhodna regija z vidika bruto domačega proizvoda in tudi bruto regionalnega proizvoda na prebivalca zaostaja za drugimi regijami, zato je bila izbrana za raziskavo. Na podlagi prostorske analize so bila mesta Nakhon Ratčasima, Khon Kaen, Udon Thani in Ubon Ratčathani določena za regionalna središča rasti. Vsako ima svoje območje vpliva (ali satelitska mesta), skupno območje regionalnih središč rasti in satelitskih mest pa je opredeljeno kot podregija. Razvoj regionalnih središč rasti ima na podlagi gospodarskih in družbenih odnosov neposreden vpliv na gospodarsko rast podregije: urbanizacijo, industrijski razvoj, rast na prebivalca, število visokošolskih ustanov in podobno. Kljub temu pa je ta rast negativno povezana z gospodarsko enakostjo provinc v podregiji. Očitno je, da se neenakost poglablja. Avtor v članku predlaga, da bi za doseganje trajnega pozitivnega vpliva regionalnih središč rasti na gospodarsko rast in enakost morali izboljšati industrijske povezave med temi središči in njihovimi satelitskimi mesti. Če bo ta proces dovolj močan, se bo rast z regionalnih središč razširila tudi na sosednja območja in pospešila njihov razvoj.
Koncept potrošackog etnocentrizma u novije vrijeme sve više zaokuplja pažnju marketinških strucnjaka i istraživaca iz podrucja ponašanja potrošaca. Potrošacki etnocentrizam, najjednostavnije receno, ...predstavlja neku vrstu odbojnosti koju potrošaci osjecaju prema svim proizvodima i uslugama koje dolaze iz uvoza. Postoji jaka veza izmedu razvoja i rasta malih i srednjih poduzeca, s jedne, te potražnje za domacim proizvodima, odnosno povecanju stupnja potrošackog etnocentrizma, s druge strane, a posljedica toga je smanjenje vanjskotrgovinskog defi cita, porast BDP-a, smanjenje stope nezaposlenosti, kao i napredak Federacije Bosne i Hercegovine na putu prema Europskoj uniji. Jedan od osnovnih ciljeva istraživanja bio je utvrditi postoji li potrošacki etnocentrizam kao obilježje stavova potrošaca? Ako postoji, u kojoj ce mjeri utjecat na odluku o kupnji, te kakve ce biti njegove implikacije na razvoj gospodarstva. Jedinstvenost i specifi cnost provedenog empirijskog istraživanja ogleda se u cinjenici da potrošacki etnocentrizam nije izucavan niti istraživan kao jedan od cimbenika razvoja gospodarstva zemlje, niti postoje ranija istraživanja koja dovode u vezu ova dva koncepta, tj. potrošacki etnocentrizam i razvoj gospodarstva.
