The company always faces challenges both internally and externally in managing resources and achieving organizational goals. To be able to compete, corporations need to manage the complexity and uncertainty in the market environment by improving management. To date, few studies are available to verify the items required for business, particularly banking as a guide for designing such complexities. In this regard, this study seeks to provide validity items that are useful for the world of corporate banking, in managing the complexities of the external environment and in formulating and implementing strategies. By combining the concept of human resource management, socio-economic factors through a dimensional measurement with a stakeholder approach, the study findings demonstrate several important keys for banks to manage external elements and strategies as a guide to measuring effectiveness that can be used as a basis for further studies.

The number of Internet users around the world has been steadily growing and this growth has provided the impetus and the opportunities for global and regional e-commerce. However, as with the Internet, different characteristics (infrastructure and socio-economic) of the local environment have created a significant level of variation in the acceptance and growth of e-commerce in different regions of the world. Our research focuses on the impact of these infrastructure and socio-economic factors on e-commerce development in China and the findings provide insights into the role of culture in e-commerce, and the factors that may impact a broader acceptance and development of e-commerce in China. In this chapter, we present and discuss our findings, and propose some strategies for success for e-commerce in China.

Terrorist activities in the post-Paris Peace Treaties have emerged as one of the most perilous agendas that are troubling the world economies and political figures in securing their nations and regions. Several socio-economic factors were evidenced to be the crucial factors in determining terrorist activities all around the world. The present article strives to identify the significance of several socio economic factors, namely, refugee population, access to good sanitation facilities, youth unemployment rate, percentage of education expenditure to GDP, percentage of military expenditure to GDP, per capita GDP and political stability in the panel of seven South Asian countries and China for the period 2002-2016. By applying both static and dynamic panel models, the article observes that all of the selected variables explain the terrorism index with expected signs. The article thus prescribes that the governments of the selected countries should concentrate on allocating their budgets on the improvements of sectors underlying the associated indicators.

ABSTRACTAlthough the American Civil War is perhaps the most written about event in American history, the issue of desertion has often retained a neglected position in the conflict's dense historiography. Those historians who have studied military absenteeism during the war have tended to emphasize socio-economic factors as motivating men to leave the army and return home. The Register of Confederate Deserters, a list of southern soldiers who crossed into Union lines and took an oath of loyalty in order to try and return home, can provide a different look at these men. By studying the South Carolinian men on the Register, as a case-study, we can see that ideological, as well as socio-economic, motivations occupied the thought process of Civil War deserters. Moreover, the act of desertion was rarely a simple representation of the thoughts of the individual but of the opinions and feelings of his family and community as well. As such, studying Confederate desertion not only helps us understand the issues of loyalty and nationalism during the Civil War, but also the way in which nineteenth-century southerners conceptualized the world around them.

Online education has acquired a renewed interest all over the world, due to the ravaging restrictions imposed by the Covid pandemic. In the Indian context, the question remains is that “is the online medium inclusive enough to be deemed a solution?” As classes shift online and pedagogy relies on technology, it becomes imperative to ensure that no one lags behind and education remains accessible to the last learner. The issue of universality of the access to the Internet in India mingles with various socio-economic disparities that hinder its progress. This paper attempts to analyse and bring forward the factors that may contribute to the stark contrasts with regards to the success of the online education scene in India, ranging from accessibility, gender, socio-economic factors to the policy issues.

Many countries in the world, especially developing ones, are striving to attract investment capital. This is also the top concern of People's Committees of provinces/ cities across Vietnam. Although many localities in Mekong Delta have endeavored to call for capital investment in recent years, results were not as expected. The purpose of this paper is to provide a theoretical basis underlying the investment climate along with indicators used to evaluate it. Results indicated that the current managementmechanisms of localities are very good and the remaining weakness lies at socioeconomic factors. Therefore, to be competitive in attracting investment capital, the localities need to upgradebasic production factors under socio-economic ones. However, in order to efficiently promote the socio-economic factors, the localities should be active in management mechanisms through the establishment of flexible capital investment attraction policies. This is because the competitiveness should be based on a dynamic innovation policy which creates a differentiation among localities when comparative advantage is no longera steady pillar for a long-term strategy.

The prevalence of celiac disease (CD) is increasing in the world. In Morocco, its incidence is also increasing considerably. The gluten-free diet (GFD) remains the only effective treatment so far. Its effectiveness depends essentially on good adherence to this diet. However, several factors hinder adherence by contributing to diet failure. Within this framework, this study aims to evaluate adherence to this diet in celiac children and adolescents continuing in a tertiary health center. The article also looks to identify the different factors influencing adherence to GFD in Morocco. The results show from serological and/or biopsy tests on 238 celiac patients that half had good adherence and 13% had poor adherence. The questionnaire aimed at 127 parents or proxies of celiac children and adolescents shows that several factors are responsible for the failure to adhere to the diet such as the role of the mass media, cultural and psychological factors. The exorbitant price, nutritional quality, and low availability of gluten-free products play a major role in GFD failure. Low socio-economic factors have a negative influence on the adherence to the GFD.

Objective: Evaluate the trend of dietary convergence in the world. How specifically do Indian and Chinese diets have changed and middle-class consumption and evaluate their dietary trend? Methodology: The paper analyses the diet patter of India and China from 1990 to 2019. The paper is particularly keen to analyse the impact of income, urbanization and proportion of the young population on diet pattern. The data of food balance for these two countries is taken from FAOSTAT. To measure the income effect, the GNP per capita data is taken from World Bank. The population and urbanization data is taken from UN world population prospects 2019 and UN world urbanization prospects 2018. The linear regression model is used to analyse the impact of socio-economic factors. Results: The analysis has found that rise in income is positively associated with the macronutrients diet for Indians particularly for carbohydrates consumption whereas for Chinese the reverse is true. The study found that urbanization of the population is highly positively associated with the consumption of carbohydrates diet for Chinese whereas, for India, urbanization is negatively associated with fat consumption. The change in young age population negatively impacts the fat consumption for China while positively impact the consumption of carbohydrates for Indians.Conclusion: The gap between dietary pattern is found to be reduced globally. Consumption of many food groups shows convergence for a different region. The consumption of macronutrients between India and China from 1990 to 2019 shows the converging trend in the early 1990s but after that, it shows divergence. In both countries, socio-economic factors push more toward carbohydrates diets.

Anemia is one of the most common public health problems in the world, especially among pregnant women. The objective of our study is to describe the socio-demographic and epidemiological profile of anemic women. We conducted a prospective study in the maternity department of the CHEIKH ZAYED Hospital Center in Nouakchott, during the period from 2015 to 2016. In addition, 400 pregnant women are interviewed, including 49.75% (n=199) with anemia, of which 34.17% were under 24 years of age, 63.31% are white Moors and 90.45% are at home. As a result, Statistical analyzes show a significant relationship, between certain socio-economic factors (Age, provenence area, ethnic origin, household size) and anemia.
