"This book presents the theory and practice of impact assessment tailored to new border control technologies that are increasingly employed at state borders with the aim of facilitating border ...checks. Experience has shown that their use often comes into conflict with societal values such as the respect for fundamental rights to privacy and personal data protection. As a result, there is a growing need to accommodate two requirements, the first being the deployment of new border control technologies and the second being the respect for relevant societal values. This book introduces a tool that seeks to accommodate both requirements: impact assessment. Impact assessment is an evaluation technique used to analyse the potential future consequences of a given measure for societal values. The main objective of the assessment process is to support informed decision-making about whether or not, and under what conditions, to deploy a given measure. Border Control and New Technologies. Addressing Integrated Impact Assessment is addressed predominantly to border control authorities in the European Union and in the Schengen Area who wish to ensure that new technologies for controlling state borders respect the principles of democracy, the rule of law and human rights. The book will be of interest also for border control officials elsewhere in the world as well as for anyone dealing with the theory and practice of impact assessment."

This book challenges the common European notions about African migration to Europe and offers a holistic understanding of the current situation in Africa. It advocates a need to rethink Africa-Europe ...relations and view migration and borders as a resource rather than as sources of a crisis.
Migrant movement from Africa is often misunderstood and misrepresented as invasion caused by displacement due to poverty, violent conflict, and environmental stress. To control this movement and preserve national identities, the EU and its various member states resort to closing borders as a way of reinforcing their migration policies. This book aims to dismantle this stereotypical view of migration from Africa by sharing cutting-edge research from the leading scholars in Africa and Europe. It refutes the flawed narratives that position Africa as a threat to European societies, their economies, and security, and encourages a nuanced understanding of the root causes as well as the socioeconomic factors that guide the migrants’ decision-making. With chapters written in a concise style, this book brings together the migration and border studies in an innovative way to delve into the broader societal impacts of both. It also serves to de-silence the African voices in order to offer fresh insights on African migration – a discourse dominated hitherto by the European perspective.
This book constitutes a valuable resource for research scholars and students of Border Studies, Migration Studies, Conflict and Security Studies, and Development Studies seeking specialisation in these areas. Written in an accessible style, it will also appeal to a more general public interested in gaining a fuller perspective on the African reality.
Zusammenfassung Um auch die unbeabsichtigten Folgen ihrer Politik zu ermitteln, unternehmen Regierungen umfassende Gesetzesfolgenabschätzungen. Immer häufiger lassen sie sich dabei von unabhängigen ...Expertengremien kontrollieren. Doch: Wie erzielen diese Gremien Einfluss? Und welche Rolle spielen sie als Politikberater für Bürokratieabbau und bessere Rechtsetzung? Das Buch eröffnet neue Einblicke in die Entwicklungshistorie und Handlungsrealität der drei erfahrensten Normenkontrollräte in Europa. Vor dem Hintergrund unterschiedlicher Verwaltungskulturen werden die Ratstypen „Wachhund“, „Torwächter“ und „Kritischer Freund“ herausgearbeitet. Die Ergebnisse schärfen die politische und wissenschaftliche Debatte um die Leistungsfähigkeit von Normenkontrollräten. Abstract In order to calculate the unintended consequences of their policies, governments conduct comprehensive assessments of the impact of legislation. In doing so, they have independent expert committees monitor them on an increasingly frequent basis. However, in what ways do these committees have an influence in this respect? And what role do they play as policy advisors in terms of dismantling bureaucracy and better legislation? This book provides new insights into the history of the development of the three most experienced supervisory bodies in Europe and the reality of how they conduct themselves. Against the backdrop of various administrative cultures, the book presents the following types of supervisory committees in detail: ‘watchdog’, ‘gatekeeper’ and ‘critical friend’. Its findings intensify the political and academic debate on the performance and efficiency of supervisory bodies.
Uloga samoregulacije u agresiji uobičajeno se proučavala zanemarivanjem višedimenzionalne prirode agresije koja razlikuje oblike (otvorena nasuprot relacijskoj) i funkcije (proaktivna nasuprot ...reaktivnoj) agresije. Osim toga, zanemarivan je doprinos dvaju vidova samoregulacije (voljna I reaktivna kontrola) u regulaciji agresije. Dosadašnja istraživanja sugeriraju da samo reaktivno agresivna djeca imaju nisku voljnu kontrolu jer je njihova agresija posljedica nedovoljne inhibicije agresivnih impulsa. S druge se strane sugerira da proaktivno agresivna djeca nemaju probleme u voljnoj kontroli jer se proaktivna agresija opisuje kao unaprijed smišljeno ponašanje koje je vođeno instrumentalnim ciljevima. Međutim, konceptualizacija proaktivne agresije kao planirane agresije s predumišljajem nije održiva jer je proaktivna agresija povezana s reaktivnom nedovoljnom kontrolom, što predstavlja impulzivnost. U ovome se radu pregledom recentnih istraživanja analizira taj problem te se sugerira da su svi tipovi agresije povezani s nedovoljnom voljnom kontrolom. Istraživanja sugeriraju da su tipovi agresije s obzirom na oblik i funkciju povezani s različitim aspektima impulzivnosti. Nadalje, djeca koja imaju reaktivnu pretjeranu kontrolu mogu putem bihevioralne inhibicije umanjiti svoju agresiju. Budućim bi se istraživanjima trebalo utvrditi koji su oblici i funkcije agresije povezani s niskom reaktivnom pretjeranom kontrolom, tj. s niskom bihevioralnom inhibicijom. Kod djece čija je agresija posljedica slabe reaktivne kontrole potrebno je razviti voljnu kontrolu da bi se inhibiralo agresivno ponašanje. Predložene su intervencije za učvršćivanje samoregulacije u tipovima agresije s obzirom na oblik i funkciju u kojima se pojavljuju.
Kontrola w relacjach społecznych budzi wiele skrajnych emocji. Właściwe jej rozumienie i wykorzystanie jest jednak istotne w perspektywie budowania porządku i ładu społecznego. Tym niemniej, kontrola ...nie może ogarniać w maksymalnym możliwym stopniu przestrzeni funkcjonowania podmiotów życia społecznego. Inaczej, będzie bardziej ograniczała i hamowała rozwój niż go odpowiednio stymulowała i ukierunkowywała. Podstawą relacji społecznych, także w biznesie, muszą być relacje oparte na zaufaniu, które należy wzmacniać poprzez odpowiednie wykorzystanie instrumentów kontroli. Szczególne znaczenie kontrola ma w biznesie żywnościowym, którego produkcja w sposób bezpośredni oddziałuje na życie i zdrowie konsumentów. W Polsce działa wiele instytucji zajmujących się urzędową kontrolą żywności, których działania jednak nie do końca są skoordynowane i wymagają korekty. Istotne jest zwłaszcza wzmocnienie autorytetu tych instytucji, a także większe ich ukierunkowanie na działalność edukacyjną i kształtowanie odpowiedniej kultury żywnościowej w społeczeństwie, która pozwoli także na lepsze współdziałanie konsumentów w procesie kontroli i wzmacniania pozytywnych więzi społecznych.

Uzrokujući direktne ili indirektne štete i prenoseći biljne bolesti, kukci stvaraju višestruke gubitke u poljoprivrednoj proizvodnji, što se očituje smanjenom kvalitetom i prinosom usjeva. Uz ...primjenu kemijskih insekticida, koji su najčešći u konvencionalnoj poljoprivredi, nastoje se pronaći odgovarajući alternativni načini suzbijanja štetnika koji su okolišno prihvatljivi. Jedan je od takvih načina biološka kontrola kukaca entomopatogenim gljivama, za koje je utvrđena iznimno visoka učinkovitost u suzbijanju mnogih vrsta kukaca. Cilj rada bio je navesti mogućnosti suzbijanja kukaca entomopatogenim gljivama roda Fusarium te prikazati njihov potencijal primjene, od tretiranja sjemena, tretiranja kukaca do tretiranja skladišta. Brojne vrste roda Fusarium pokazale su visoku učinkovitost suzbijanja kukaca u svim fazama njihovog razvoja te su pogodne za daljnja istraživanja.
Insects cause multiple losses in agricultural production by inflicting direct or indirect damage and transmitting plant diseases, which is manifested in a reduced quality and crop yield. With the application of chemical insecticides, being most common in conventional agriculture, the effort is invested to find the appropriate alternative ways to control the pests that are environmentally friendly. One such method is a biological insect control by entomopathogenic fungi that have proven to be extremely effective in controlling many insect species from multiple genera. The aim of this study was to determine the possibilities of insect control by entomopathogenic fungi of the genus Fusarium and to show their potential in various forms of application, from a seed treatment, insect specimens, or storage areas. Numerous Fusarium sp. have demonstrated a high insect control efficiency at all stages of their development and are thus suitable for further research.
Cilj je istraživanja bio ispitati ulogu majčine psihološke kontrole i nezadovoljenja psiholoških potreba u školskome okruženju u razvoju problema mentalnoga zdravlja i problematične uporabe ...interneta. U istraživanju su sudjelovala 342 adolescenta iz triju zagrebačkih srednjih strukovnih škola (Mdob= 16.45, SD = 0.533), od čega 174 mladića. U istraživanju su ispitani percipirana majčina psihološka kontrola, nezadovoljenje potrebe za autonomijom i kompetentnošću u školskome okruženju, simptomi depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa te problematična uporaba interneta. Rezultati pokazuju da djevojke iskazuju više razine problematične uporabe interneta i problema mentalnoga zdravlja nego mladići. Analizom traga utvrđen je izravan učinak majčine psihološke kontrole na nezadovoljenje potreba te na internalizirane probleme. Rezultati pokazuju da je nezadovoljenje potreba medijator između psihološke kontrole, internaliziranih problema te problematične uporabe interneta. Također, stres je medijator između psihološke kontrole i problematične uporabe interneta, ali samo kod djevojaka. Istraživanje doprinosi razumijevanju problematične uporabe interneta među adolescentima u Hrvatskoj. Preciznije, istraživanje potvrđuje teorijske pretpostavke teorije samoodređenja da se negativni učinci psihološke kontrole povezane s uspjehom mogu odraziti na druge kontekste, poputškolskoga okruženja, i dovesti do nezadovoljenja potreba u tome okruženju. To naposljetku može dovesti do negativnih posljedica za dobrobit adolescenata u obliku problema s mentalnim zdravljem i problematične uporabe interneta. Rezultati istraživanja mogu poslužiti pri kreiranju intervencija za poboljšanje školskoga okruženja te za usvajanje strategija suočavanja s nezadovoljenjem psiholoških potreba da bi se spriječili problematična uporaba interneta i internalizirani problemi.
