The paper re-assesses the relation between the economic crisis and the rise of populist parties in the South of Europe. It argues that the former did not cause the latter directly, but rather played out as a catalyst of previously existing trends, i.e. the erosion of party democracy and the disintermediation of Western societies. It combines several theoretical approaches to advance an explanatory model that replaces the relation between crisis and populism – conceived of as political, performative and discursively mediated – within its structural pre-conditions. By doing so, it aims at providing a synthetic and steady explanation of the contemporary rise of populism in Southern Europe and beyond.

Recent studies reveal that a significant part of the European youth is still in difficult circumstances as a result of the protracted economic crisis. The situation is particularly hard in the south of Europe, where the level of youth un-employment is still high, and it seems uncertain whether it improves in the future. In addition, there is a growth in the share of so-called NEET generation, i.e. young people neither in employment nor in education or training. It leads to a dramatic waste of national human capital. Statistical data proves that the Spanish case study is one of the most complicated.

The problem of effective anti-crisis management is of crucial importance for ensuring the overall level of development of Ukraine, surmounting the financial and economic crisis, as well as creating an appropriate level of national security. In today's world with its unstable economic, political and legal dimension an entity is exposed to the external environment. The impact of the economic crisis in the world, including Ukraine, has led to the fact that most companies are close to financial crisis and some of them have already gone bankrupt. The article presents the data showing that companies are in crisis and need anti-crisis management. It is reasoned that anti-crisis management as a mechanism of adaptive regulation of business processes of enterprises is relevant and in demand both in science and in practice; the program of anti-crisis measures in case of its successful practical application can help the companies being on the brick of bankruptcy. Theoretical approaches to the formation of anti-crisis management of enterprises are considered, further research was given to the problems of developing a system of anti-crisis management of the enterprise and the development of anti-crisis financial policy. It is proved that crisis management is aimed at adapting the enterprises' activities to the constantly changing environmental conditions as well as to extract benefits from new opportunities. At the same time, the main thing in the implementation of such management is the rejection of unpromising areas of activity and the definition of the most promising ways of the organization activity ensuring its development. After analysing the latest research on ensuring the stable state and bringing the company out of the crisis, the main approaches to preventing and overcoming bankruptcy in enterprises have been identified. For effective management the measures that will clearly assess the threat and respond to management staff are proposed in the article. The causes and factors that accompany the emergence of a crisis at the enterprise are studied. The activity of Ukrainian enterprises in the conditions of crisis is analyses and a set of measures to improve crisis management for the financial security of the company is created.

The Impact

This chapter examines the connections between the trajectory of the radical right in Italy, Spain, and Greece and the impact of the 2007 economic crisis and its aftermaths. The crisis sparked sweeping anti-political sentiments directed against the mainstream political actors that had been ruling these countries in recent decades, and which were held responsible for the disproportionate impact of the crisis on these countries. However, it is argued that distinctive supply-side and contextual political factors affected the relevance of radical right parties in the countries examined. Competition from new types of populist formations such as Podemos and the Five Star Movement limited the viability of the radical right in Italy and Spain, while in Greece the radical right emerged in association with conventional extreme right ideologies. In addition, in Spain a perception of migrants as less threatening and competition from ingrained ethnonationalist identities further limited the viability of the radical right.

The Impact

Among the European countries Spain ranks fourth after Italy, Germany and the Czech Republic in terms of the number of Ukrainian immigrants. The Ukrainians settle in Spain unevenly, with the highest concentration in the south-eastern regions of the country. The Ukrainian migrants are employed mostly in construction, agriculture, household activities, hotel and restaurant business. Therefore, the impact of the global economic crisis on the economy of Spain heavily influences the condition of the Ukrainians in the country.

World Economic Crisis

In the second half of 2008, significant impacts of the world economic crisis became evident in the Czech labour market. In 2009, employment and the number of vacancies gradually declined and the number of the unemployed continually increased. This paper aims to show the impact of the crisis on the development (2008–2009) of the structure of employment according to industries and sectors of national economy in South Moravia as revealed by the unique “Survey of Employment in the South Moravian Region on the date of 31 December 2009”. This paper is a presentation of the general parameters of this survey – the number of companies participating in this survey, the number of their employees and regional differences of these characteristics are evaluated. Brief attention is also paid to the expected development of employment in 2010, which is compiled on the basis of the assumed recruitment/release of employees of businesses participating in the survey.
