(1) Background: The resilience concept shows performance improvement in four potential aspects consisting of the ability to respond, provide anticipatory action, control things that occur internally and externally, as well as the learning process of what is going right and what is going wrong. This study aims to analyze the safety resilience implementation in the Indonesian maritime sector. (2) Method: This is a descriptive study using semi-quantitative methods, using interview guides based on the Resilience Assessment Grid (RAG). The sampling technique is purposive sampling. (3) Results: The level of implementation of safety resilience at the public company was 75.1%, while the private company was 70.2%. The score for each safety resilience element in the public and private companies are as follows: the ability to respond (80%), learning ability (74.62%), monitoring ability (70.77%), and the ability to anticipate (66.92%). (4) Conclusion: The safety resilience implementation in Indonesian sea transportation shipping has not been optimal in implementing the safety resilience concept. The focus of implementing safety is still on preventing and controlling accidents. The other orientation of ability improvement in the safety resilience concept has not been implemented.

ABSTRACT This study uses survey data gathered by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) and provided to the Institute for Fraud Prevention (IFP) to examine differences in the profile of financial reporting fraud (FRF) between private companies and public companies. Although private companies represent a significant portion of the economy, largely due to lack of data on these companies, most research on FRF examines only public companies. The primary objective of this study is to determine how private company FRF is different from FRF in public companies. Our multivariate tests reveal that public companies have stronger anti-fraud environments, are more likely to have frauds that involve timing differences, tend to experience larger frauds, have frauds that involve a larger number of perpetrators, and are less likely to have frauds that are discovered by accident. Overall, it appears that the stronger anti-fraud environment in public companies leads public company FRF perpetrators to use less obvious fraud methods (i.e., timing differences) and to involve larger fraud teams to circumvent the controls. These public company frauds are larger than in private companies, and their larger size may make them more likely to be detected through formal means, rather than by accident. Based on the results, we encourage auditors and others to be particularly attuned to the unique risks of the public versus private setting.

Legal reasoning is increasingly quantified. Developers in the market and public institutions in the legal system are making use of massive databases of court opinions and other legal communications to craft algorithms to assess the effectiveness of legal arguments or predict court judgments; tasks that were once seen as the exclusive province of seasoned lawyers’ obscure knowledge. New legal technologies promise to search heaps of documents for useful evidence, and to analyze dozens of factors to quantify a lawsuit’s odds of success. Legal quantification initiatives depend on the availability of reliable data about the past behavior of courts that institutional actors have attempted to control. The development of initiatives in legal quantification is visible as public bodies craft their own tools for internal use and access by the public, and private companies create new ways to valorize the “raw data” provided by courts and lawyers by generating information useful to the strategies of legal professionals, as well as to the investors that re-valorize legal activity by securitizing legal risk through litigation funding.

This article contributes to emergent debates in critical security studies that consider the processes and effects that arise where new forms of automated technology begin to guide security practices. It does so through research into public Wi-Fi infrastructure that has started to appear across the globe and its mobilization as a device for warning the public about emergencies. I focus specifically on an iteration of this infrastructure developing in New York called LinkNYC. According to the infrastructure’s operators, the processes that underpin emergency communication have gradually become ‘automated’ to accelerate LinkNYC’s deployment during crises. The article pursues three lines of inquiry to explore the automation of security infrastructure, in turn making three correspondent original contributions to wider debates. First, it unpacks the real-time analytics and platform-based data-sharing techniques cultivated to automate emergency communication. Here, I expand understanding of the new forms of automation now integrated into technologies harnessed for security and their practical effects. These forms of automation, I demonstrate secondly, are situated by those governing into wider imaginaries concerning the transformative promise automation bears. I argue that the proliferation of these imaginaries play a crucial role in justifying and dictating the enrolment of new devices into security. Third, it explores how automation affords private companies the opportunity to exercise discretionary decisionmaking that changes how and when infrastructure should operate during emergencies. Developing this argument, I add new dimensions to debates regarding the political ramifications associated with automation by claiming that automation redistributes authority across the public and private organizations that increasingly coordinate in bringing new technologies to bear in the security domain.

Abstract A public-private partnership (PPP) model has been adopted in Brazil for the modernization of its main national airports. Until 2017, the institutional setup imposed the public company Infraero to participate with 49% in the joint venture for the management of the airports subject to PPP. The remaining 51% shares belong to private companies, namely those that constitute the consortium group that won the correspondent public tender. This paper analyses this hybrid governance structure, including the main advantages and disadvantages, for both government and private parties, in maintaining a state-owned enterprise with a mandatory 49% share in the winner consortium. It focuses on five main aspects: access to knowledge; government influence on decisions, funding, and risk-sharing; cross subsidization and competition. The paper also summarizes its main findings and recommendations for future rounds of airport concessions in Brazil, in particular to underline overall inconveniences of the mandatory rule that imposes to Infraero a 49% share in all winner consortiums.

El conocimiento del comportamiento del turista, a partir de la información que generan y recogen tanto administraciones públicas, como privadas, resulta clave para la planificación de los destinos. Por ello, es fundamental conocer la opinión de los expertos al respecto. La realización de entrevistas personales a diferentes actores de la administración pública, la empresa privada y el ámbito universitario ha permitido detectar necesidades y demandas reales de información en relación al comportamiento del turista, así como realizar una reflexión relativa a la necesidad de la formulación de un Sistema de Información Turístico público. Knowledge of tourist behavior, based on the information generated and collected by both public and private management, is key for destination planning. Therefore, in this regard, it is essential to know the experts' opinions. Carrying out personal interviews with different players in the public administration, private companies and the academy has enabled finding actual needs and requirements of information regarding tourist behaviors, as well as reflecting on the necessity of the development of a public Tourist Information System.

Abstract Currently, corruption has been so generalized and sophisticated that threatens to undermine the own society structure. Corruption is a problem identified in all the countries. What changes is how we deal with it. Nevertheless, why is there so much corruption? Within the group of factors, it is possible to highlight the high bureaucracy that reduces the efficiency of the public administration; the presence of a slow Judiciary Branch which is very low is terms of efficiency, when reprimanding illicit practices that incite everything ending up in pizza (this sentence was literally translated from Portuguese, it does not exist in English, but it means that impunity prevails in Brazil.); the existence of a corporatist sense among the Administration industries in the public sector in relation to the private sector and so facilitating corruption. The penalty for corruption should be constrained to mechanisms that allow the system of criminal justice to carry out actions of arrest, prosecution, penalty and repair to the country. Combating corruption complies with the republican ideal for the reduction of costs in Brazil. Moralizing the public-private relations offers juridical security to the market. The fact that some countries, especially Brazil, are seriously combating against corruption brings hope, with an eye on a more rigid legislation and less bureaucratic as well, with the end of the corporatist sense and the equivalence of salaries between the public and private sector. We shall provide effective criminal, administrative and civil penalties of inhibiting nature for future action; we shall provide cooperation between the law applicator and the private companies; we shall prevent the conflict of interests; we shall forbid the existence of “black fund” at the companies and we shall encouraged the relief or reduction of taxes to expenses considered as bribery or other conducts related

RESUMOCom a entrada em vigor da Lei nº 12.846/2013, também conhecida como Lei Anticorrupção, que entre os seus principais dispositivos buscam inovar o ordenamento jurídico pátrio ao disciplinar a responsabilidade administrativa e civil de pessoas jurídicas pela prática de atos contra a administração pública. A importância da legislação sobressai diante da busca de uma nova visão interpretativa e sancionatória com o claro objetivo de alcançar a redução da prática de atos de corrupção, tendo em vista que eliminar tão ignóbil e abjeta prática da realidade brasileira se mostra totalmente impossível. Em face do texto legal recentemente sancionado a Lei nº 12.846/13 passa a exigir que as empresas públicas e privadas venham a se adaptarem às inovações propostas. Como principal consequência da “Lei Anticorrupção” encontra se obrigatoriedade de implantação de mecanismos de prevenção e planejamento estratégico, a fim de monitorarem o relacionamento com a Administração Pública, com o intuito de evitar a aplicação das severas penalidades previstas. Por sua vez, os mecanismos inseridos na Lei anticorrupção tem o escopo de controlar as práticas empresariais, bem como consolidar a integridade das práticas de relacionamento entre as empresas, as quais permitirão alçar um novo patamar de cultura cidadã e ética no âmbito empresarial, que reverterá para toda a sociedade. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Responsabilidade Civil e Administrativa; corrupção; complience; controle administrativo. ABSTRACT With the entry into force of Law No. 12,846 / 2013, also known as the Anti-Corruption Law, which among its main provisions seek to innovate the legal order of the country by disciplining the administrative and civil liability of legal entities for the practice of acts against the public administration. The importance of legislation stands out in the search for a new interpretive and sanctioning vision with the clear objective of achieving a reduction in the practice of acts of corruption, since eliminating such ignoble and abject practice of the Brazilian reality is totally impossible. In light of the recently enacted legal text, Law No. 12.846 / 13 requires that public and private companies adapt to the proposed innovations. As a main consequence of the "AntiCorruption Law", it is mandatory to implement prevention and strategic planning mechanisms in order to monitor the relationship with the Public Administration, in order to avoid the application of severe penalties. In turn, the mechanisms included in the Anti-Corruption Law have the scope to control business practices, as well as to consolidate the integrity of the relationship practices between companies, which will allow to raise a new level of citizen culture and ethics in the business sphere, which will revert for the whole society. KEYWORDS: Civil and Administrative Liability; corruption; complience; administrative control.

Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. This chapter focuses on raising equity from the general public and its consequences for the operation of the company. It begins by outlining the basics of raising equity before turning to the consequences of operating in a public market, with emphasis on areas such as takeovers and insider dealing. It then considers the distinction between public and private companies in terms of capital raising, how such companies are regulated, and how public companies differ from listed companies. It also discusses various methods of raising money from the public, the role of the Financial Conduct Authority and the London Stock Exchange in ensuring the proper functioning of the listed market in the UK, and the regulation of listed companies as well as takeovers and other public offers. The chapter concludes by examining the Takeovers Directive (Directive 2004/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 21, 2004 on Takeover Bids).
