Forty-one years on from Huber’s study exploring the assimilation of Italian-Australians, an increasing trend towards ethnic revival can be observed among the third generation of immigrants. Drawing on a case study of a family originating from Calabria in the 1950s and now living in Adelaide, South Australia, I find a widespread intergenerational identification of ethnicity as ‘being Italian’, which has different meanings across the three generations, depending on the individual’s phenomenological perception of being thrown into the world. A pivotal role in this shift of ethnic identity is played by what I refer to as institutional positionality, the individuals’ perceptions of the position of their ethnic ‘being in the world’. By merging sociology of migration, including the Bourdieusian conceptual apparatus of capital, with Heidegger’s existential theory, a reflexive framework is developed that takes into account the relevance of ontology in the field of migration.

Background. Currently, the university management requires undertaking the execution of new activities. In response to the challenges of the contemporary processes of the management – building a third generation university - universities are adapting the concepts of management, which up to now have been first and foremost availed of in the sector of enterprises. Such a solution is the concept of a learning organisation. Research aims. The aim of the research conducted was to verify the using of the concepts of a learning organisation during the building of the third generation university Methodology. In the research methodology, a systematic literary review was applied, as well as a case study of the Jagiellonian University. The choice of this university was made on the basis of a subjective evaluation of the process of evolution of the university from the second generation to the third generation. The adoption of such research methodology shall facilitate the building of propositions of good practices of the university management for other universities in the future. Findings. The research conducted reveals that the university has been usinga learning organisation to build a third generation university

PROMETHEE and GAIA belong to the family of multi-criteria outranking methods. A key aspect of their successful application to real problems relies on the existence of user-friendly software implementing these approaches. Following PROMCALC and DECISION LAB 2000, D-Sight is the third generation of PROMETHEE and GAIA based applications. It offers multiple interactive and visual tools that help the decision maker to better understand and manage his multi-criteria problem. The aim of this paper is to provide a description of D-Sight by presenting its main characteristics. An illustrative case study about the outsourcing of IT infrastructure and application development is detailed.
