Bearing in mind the growth in regions with socio-economic bases dependent on tourism, studies that analyze spatial planning processes, regional public policies, and their relationship with tourism activities are essential to achieve the so-desired sustainable territorial development. Through case study research methods, territorial impact analysis, and questionnaires to explore the public perceptions, it was possible to design and implement a study regarding this specific regional governance theme on the Azores Autonomous Region (AAR). The research allowed us to learn that the most affected activities by public territorial policies in the AAR from the respondents’ perspective were accommodation (54.7%) and nature (51.9%). Conversely, the less affected were culture (15.1%) and rental/hire services (17.9). Furthermore, it was possible to identify two factors that rule public policies on the growth and development of the Azores: (i) impact in the natural landscape and (ii) suitable production factors.

This case study research examines informal adult learning in the Lock the Gate Alliance, a campaign against mining for coal seam gas in Central Gippsland, Australia. In the field of the campaign, circumstantial activists learn to think critically about the environment, they learn informally and incidentally, through socialization with experienced activists from and through nonformal workshops provided by the Environmental Nongovernment Organization Friends of the Earth. This article uses Bourdieu’s “theory of practice,” to explore the mobilization of activists within the Lock the Gate Alliance field and the practices which generate knowledge and facilitate adult learning. These practices have enabled a diverse movement to educate the public and citizenry about the serious threat fracking poses to the environment, to their land and water supply. The movements successful practices have won a landmark moratorium on fracking for coal seam gas in the State of Victoria.

Film Making

There is a long history of engaging citizens in planning processes, and the intention to involve them actively in planning is a common objective. However, the reality of doing so is rather fraught and much empirical work suggests poor results. Partly in response an increasingly sophisticated toolkit of methods has emerged, and, in recent years, the deployment of various creative and digital technologies has enhanced this toolkit. We report here on case study research that deployed participatory film-making to augment a process of neighbourhood planning. We conclude that such a technology can elicit issues that might be missed in traditional planning processes; provoke key actors to include more citizens in the process by highlighting existing absences in the knowledge base; and, finally, provoke greater deliberation on issues by providing spaces for reflection and debate. We note, however, that while participants in film-making were positive about the experience, such creative methods were side-lined as established forms of technical–rational planning reasserted themselves.

Despite the significant progress made by research into e-business models, the issue of how public sector organisations can successfully make the transition from traditional approaches to e-business by taking advantage of e-technologies has received little attention. This chapter draws on qualitative, longitudinal case-study research carried out between 2001 and 2005 in Britain’s national mapping agency to reveal the processes of strategic and organisational transformation engendered by E-business in an organisation evolving from the classical, bureaucratic and centralised ‘public sector model’ towards a new organisational form through embracing e-business as a corporate philosophy. The study also explores the key components of the new e-business model implemented by the organisation and the contextual factors that impacted on the effectiveness of E-strategy implementation in order to draw a list of best practices for the implementation of E-business in a public sector context.

This article examined the problem to reduce divorces outside the court. The Malaysian government has established sanctions for the perpetrators. This research was conducted employing a case study approach with descriptive-analysis method. The results showed that the implementation of divorce sanctions outside the Syariah Subordinate Court of Selangor was less effective in reducing divorces. The high number of divorce cases were found in the country of Selangor, increasing by 71.8% of cases from 2012 to 2017. However, the cases in the West Gombak Syariah Subordinate Court has decreased slightly between 2015 and 2017, indicated by only a few cases were registered. Two factors influenced the implementation of divorce sanctions outside the Syariah Subordinate Court. First, the Selangor Islamic Family Law has regulated the divorce law outside the court in a detailed and clear. Still, the socialization for the public was lacking, and the society took this rule seriously so that the sanction implementation for divorce cases outside the court became a legal solution. Second, the high number of divorce cases found outside the court required a legal policy to impose a legal sanction on the perpetrators. Abstrak: Artikel ini mengkaji masalah untuk mengurangi talak di luar Mahkamah, pemerintah Malaysia telah menetapkan sanksi bagi pelaku. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan studi kasus dengan metode deskriptif-analisis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: Pelaksanaan sanksi talak di luar Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Selangor masih kurang efektif dalam mengurangi perceraian. Kasus perceraian ditemukan cukup banyak di negeri Selangor sebanyak 71.8% kasus meningkat dari tegang waktu tahun 2012 hingga 2017 namun kisaran kasus di Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Gombak Barat agak sudah sedikit menurun dari tahun 2015 hingga 2017 hanya ditemukan beberapa kasus yang terdaftar. Faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pelaksanaan sanksi talak di luar Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Selangor ada dua. Pertama, Enakmen Hukum Keluarga Islam Negeri Selangor telah diatur hukum perceraian di luar mahkamah secara rinci dan jelas, namun masyarakat masih kurang sosialisasi dan mengambil berat terhadap aturan ini sehingga penerapan sanksi atas kasus talak di luar mahkamah muncul sebagai solusi hukumnya. Kedua, banyaknya temuan kasus talak di luar mahkamah mengharuskan adanya kebijakan hukum berupa penjatuhan sanksi hukum bagi pelakunya. Kata Kunci: Efektivitas, Sanksi, Talak, Luar Mahkamah

This is the first part of an article that will discuss digital transformation issues in Russian regions that differ by social and cultural modernization level, as well as the population’s willingness to accept digital transformation in life and at work. Today’s main digital transformation tools and regulators are regional governance systems, along with the relevant official bodies that are responsible for the design and implementation of strategic solutions for territorial development. In response to the associated issues, we interviewed experts in 17 Russian regions that differ by the aforementioned modernization level. We used the data collected during the interviews to: determine how prepared the regional organizations and enterprises are for digital transformation; evaluate the resources currently available for “breakthrough projects”; discover the public attitude towards the introduction of the Russian Federation Digital Economy national project. The article focuses on the research rationales and cognitive procedures that have been developed for the purposes of management sociology, and applies them to studying the issues that arise out of digital transformation and the introduction of “smart” governance on the regional level, based on the optimization of digital transformation through the involvement of the so-called stakeholders — specially assembled activist teams that contribute to the controlled implementation of digital technology in the region in a variety of ways, from research to applied solutions.

Understanding the history of a place is essential for incorporating local concerns and values into decision-making. Most important, history is present whether we acknowledge it or not. Creating change and improving the lives and health of the public demands effective public policies. These policies must rest on the foundation of a city’s or neighborhood’s history. Channeling new development, preserving and protecting health, and meeting challenges posed by changing environmental conditions need the participation and support of thousands of people. These issues are never discussed in a vacuum, and no problems are solved without regard to history and memory. The Boston experience highlights the need for careful consideration of present conditions in order to prepare for the unknown future. This chapter discusses Boston as a case study, aiming to understand how history shapes cities and creates health in urban populations.
