In the modern service economy, the efficiency of an enterprise largely depends on the ability of the staff to create a hospitable environment for the client. This causes the relevance of the study in the content of the creative capital of hospitality, which must have a competent, highly qualified professional in the service sector. Materials and methods: The study is carried out on the basis of a metatheoretical approach to the definition of creative capital. The author uses the methodology of determining syntax of characteristics, analysis of their content and subsequent synthesis of the category of the system under investigation. The materials of the works of domestic and foreign scientists are used for conducting system-positive studies. Results: The author formulates the imperatives and the category of the creative capital of hospitality. The last is a system of relations among the owners of production and financial capitals, developers of technologies for receiving guests, and sellers and consumers of services. These relationships are formed over: creative abilities, experience, leadership qualities, hospitality innovation, accommodation, nutrition, leisure, ensuring the satisfaction of the guest. The capital of hospitality ensures the enterprise competitiveness, increases the service value creates satisfaction and happiness of clients. Hospitality is becoming one of the main properties of the service, which requires constant development in a favorable socio-economic and legislative environment. The imperatives of creative capital and the category received reflect the basic guidelines for the development of human abilities in the field of hospitality.

The article provides an essential description of the concept of «service economy», defines its difference from the «industrial economy». Approaches to the definition of the term «restaurant business» are considered. Taking into account the specifics of the restaurant business, it is proposed to use the concept of «service landscape», which provides comfort of the institution, convenience of its location, perfection of interior, quality of service, implementation and use of innovative technologies of restaurant business. During the study, the algorithm and methodological basis for choosing a strategy for the development of the service economy sector of the region - restaurant business, based on identifying its prospects and attractiveness and allow on a systematic basis to link the prerequisites and conditions of enterprise development with restaurant product differentiation. As a result of the morphological analysis, the restaurants of the city of Vinnytsia were identified by the type of competitive behavior. This allowed to develop a combined strategy for the development of the city's restaurant business, which is based on the formation of compatibility of key market competencies with the core competencies of the restaurant business. The study the consequences of the strategy for the development of the restaurant business in Vinnytsia, which will improve the tourist infrastructure of the city, increase the number of employees in the service sector and, accordingly, tax revenues to the local budget, as well as improve cultural leisure opportunities for residents and guests. The combination of realization of the project-target approach of development of restaurant business with program-target methods of management of territorial development is substantiated. Projects for the development of the restaurant business have been developed in two directions: projects for the differentiation of the restaurant product and projects for strengthening the service landscape, focused on the development of a culture of restaurant service and innovative ways of serving customers. It is established that the implementation of the developed combined strategy for the development of the restaurant business in Vinnytsia with the use of a project approach will increase the share of turnover of the restaurant business and achieve a number of positive socio-economic results.

AbstractIt is known that in countries, in which basic research on human embryos is in fact prohibited by law, working with imported human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can still be permitted. As long as hESCs are not capable of development into a complete human being, it might be the case that they do not fulfill all criteria of the local definition of an embryo. Recent research demonstrates that hESCs can be developed into entities, called embryoids, which increasingly could come closer to actual human embryos in future. By discussing the Austrian situation, we want to highlight that current embryoid research could affect the prevailing opinion on the legal status of work with hESCs and therefore calls for reassessment of the regulations in all countries with comparable definitions of the embryo.

The first step of a positive change in the system of service-legal relations is a change of view on the role and importance of service users. By providing opportunity to the service user to be an active and important member of the service-legal relationship, a far-reaching and universal value of humanization of the service economy sector is achieved. In such circumstances, the moral authority of the service law is realized through its justice and through voluntary obedience to the law of the subjects of the service-legal relationship. Precisely, this moral dimension of the rule of law, in the service economy sector is realized by applying the principles of service suitability and the right to free choice. In this regard, the paper analyzes the moral dimension and culture of the rule of law in the service sector, based on the principle of service suitability and the right to free choice, which are presented in the paper as guardians of justice of the service-legal norm.

Patient’S Perception

Many different styles of acupuncture practice exist, and lack of agreement on the optimal acupuncture treatment for any particular condition may mean that some patients do not receive the best treatment. This uncertainty also makes the negative results of sham controlled trials difficult to interpret. Unless we can be sure that both adequate acupuncture and an inactive sham were used in a particular trial, then that trial should not be interpreted as dismissing acupuncture for that condition. Acupuncture practice clearly involves much more than needling procedures, but there is a strong argument for elucidating the role of those needling procedure first. The components of acupuncture needling procedures have been described in the STRICTA document, but it is also clear that the patient's perception of needling is relevant for the outcome of treatment. We therefore recommend the concept of ‘dose’ of acupuncture needling, which should include both the stimulus given to the patient, and certain aspects of the patient's perceptions and response that are known to be linked to the subsequent therapeutic response. We propose the following definition of dose: the physical procedures applied in each session, using one or more needles, taking account of the patient's resulting perception (sensory, affective and cognitive) and other responses (including motor). The dose may be affected by the state of the patient (eg nervous, immune and endocrine systems); different doses may be required for different conditions. The constituents of an adequate dose can be established initially by clinical opinion and subsequently by empirical evidence from experimental studies, which may be either clinical or basic research studies. Systematic reviews which do not consider the adequacy of the acupuncture treatment may have unreliable conclusions. Out of 47 recent systematic reviews, only six have applied some criteria for adequacy. Five used a rating system or conducted a subgroup analysis, and one excluded studies from the analysis altogether if they did not meet criteria for adequacy. Research into what constitutes an adequate dose of acupuncture has long been neglected and is now urgent. Clinical studies that compare the effects of different treatment protocols are probably the most reliable source of evidence, and may also demonstrate a dose-response relationship.

The Impact

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of the different circular business models (CBMs) in the manufacturing and service sector and apply this in the context of the food industry (FI), through a systematic literature review of related published journals and articles. The research study is designed to illustrate the impact of CBMs in the manufacturing and service sectors through a combination of real-life examples and direct references to existing literature.Design/methodology/approachThe underlying research study follows a systematic literature review approach where the relevant CBMs are explored in the context of the manufacturing and service sector (FI.) The journals most cited in the context of CBMs and their implication in the manufacturing and service sector were chosen for this study. There was no fixed timeframe applied to complete the research. A total of 54 articles were selected which referenced: discussion in the context of the concept of CBMs; different types of CBM; definition of the manufacturing sector; definition of the service sector (FI); application of different CBMs in these two sectors; and included a comparison of the application of CBMs. In total, 40 of the 54 articles were shortlisted for best relevance and used in the research study.FindingsThe underlying research study was limited to 40 articles and the data contained within them. The article search was limited to the keywords of the CBM; the implication of CBM; the CBM in manufacturing (textiles); circular business in service (FI); and comparison and application of the CBM.Practical implicationsThe final analysis demonstrates that circular business promotes sustainability by allowing companies to generate maximum return from given resources and reach zero waste targets. Greater customer satisfaction is also achieved through service innovation that cuts down negative impact on the environment. These findings are relevant and applicable to the FI.Originality/valueA review of existing literature showed that whilst there is significant research on the implications of the CBM in general, there has been little focus on the use of different CBMs specifically in the manufacturing and service industry (FI). This research study is designed to tease out the specific benefits of CBMs in this context, highlighting the contribution they can make to efficiency in both the manufacturing and service sectors (FI) through useful comparison.

AbstractThe characteristic of the “service economy” is the rise to dominance of the service sector in terms of employment and value added shares. We track this rise during the second half of the twentieth century for the U.S., more precisely the period from 1970 to 2005. Following seminal work by Baumol (1967) the rise is often attributed to growing productivity differentials between the economic sectors. The causes of the productivity differentials are, however, controversial. Inspired by Georgescu-Roegen’s (1971) evolutionary approach to production theory, the present paper explores whether differences in the energetic features of the sectors’ production technologies contribute to the growing sectorial productivity differentials. For the data for our period of analysis it turns out that a close relationship indeed exists between the sectors’ incentives for substituting relatively cheap energy for ever more expensive labor and their labor productivity gains. In highly energy-dependent sectors an increasing energy/labor ratio has been driving productivity growth while this was not the case in the service sector. The paper closes with a short discussion of what the finding may imply for the future of the service economy.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine an endogenous growth model, as a component of a broader study of servicization with skill premium and its policy implications in the evolving digital economy. Design/methodology/approach This paper develops a two-sector endogenous growth model which allows for the observed characteristics of digitally empowered structural changes. Specifically, the driving force of economic growth is the expanding variety of intermediate services as a consequence of innovation in services. The introduction of new intermediate services specifically contributes to total factor productivity in the production of service sector, and thus an uneven growth path with skill premium toward a service economy generally exists. Findings The principal finding of this paper is that the digitally empowered expanding variety of intermediate services due to innovation contributes significantly to total factor productivity in the production of service sector, and thus a servicization with skill premium generally exists along a steady-state path. In addition, this paper derives an optimal innovation policy to rule out the market failures due to innovation externality and market power in monopolistic competition conditions, and shows the Rybczynski effects of exogenous endowment changes in the evolving digital economy. Originality/value The principal contribution of this paper is to determine how unbalanced endogenous growth along a steady-state path is linked with a service economy with skill premium in the evolving digital economy. In addition to this analysis, this paper provides policy implications – namely, that a positive but finite innovation subsidy can achieve the social optimum in the digital economy, and that an exogenous increase in high-skilled labor can speed up a digitally empowered economic growth.

The construction of large-span structures has been continuously increasing domestically since 2005, but despite this trend, there are no existing fire prevention regulations and building standards for large-span structures. Accordingly, as a basic research for coming up with evacuation safety techniques for large-span structures, this study sought to derive the evacuation characteristics of building occupants in case of a fire in large-span structures by formulating the definition of large-span structure and analyzing fire cases in spatial buildings at home and abroad. It is expected that the findings of this study will be utilized as basic materials for fire scenarios that consider fire scenario application criteria (human security standards, capacity calculation standards) as well as multiple risk factors such as frequency, probability, and combustion expansion and spread based on the evacuation characteristics derived from this study.

In this article, four urban high school students and their student leadership and social justice class advisor address the question, "What are high school students' perspectives on the 2001 No Child Left Behind Act's (NCLB) definition of a highly qualified teacher?" As the advisor to the course, Garcia challenged her students to examine their high school experiences with teachers. The students offer personal stories that describe what they consider the critical qualities of teachers — qualities not based solely on the credentials and education status defined by NCLB. The authors suggest that highly qualified teachers should cultivate safe, respectful, culturally sensitive, and responsive learning communities, establish relationships with students' families and communities, express their high expectations for their students through instructional planning and implementation, and know how students learn. This article urges educators and policymakers to consider the students' voices and school experiences when making decisions about their educational needs, including the critical issue of teacher quality.
