Economic Standpoint

The dynamics of the labor market have been significantly influenced and impacted in recent decades by the scale of globalization, not only from a socio-economic standpoint, but also from the perspective of generating the premises of destroying boundaries. Taking this into consideration, our research is aimed at highlighting the socio-economic impact of migration on the labor market in the Romanian Danube Region in order to create a framework which can be used when elaborating a solid action plan meant to increase the socio-economic attractivity in the analyzed region. This research was carried out by resorting to the multicriterial analysis, aimed at quantifying the state of development of the analyzed counties from the perspective of clearly defined socio-economic indicators. Additionally, the linear regression research method was applied in order to ensure a more in-depth analysis of the relationship between local employment and the departure from domicile. The main finding was that Mehedinţi County has greater potential for socio-economic development than the neighboring county, even though the population is not encouraged to remain in the rural areas, one of the reasons being the lack of attractiveness of the local labor market. The designed econometric model confirms (66.17%) this result in the case of the localities part of Mehedinţi County.

Local Farmers

Since the liberalization of the Sino-Soviet border in 1990’s, Chinese farmers have been actively engaged in the economy of Russian Far East. Literature suggests that Chinese workers fill a labour shortage, contribute positively to local food security, with negative impacts being more socially normative and political, than economic. So far no economic empirical research exists about Chinese farmers’ presence in Russian Far East. On the basis of a panel data, an econometric model was used to analyse socio-economic impact of Chinese agribusiness entrepreneurs in Russian Far East on local households. Regression models show that presence of Chinese farmers in Russian Far East increases the probability of higher well-being, farm income, food costs and share of Chinese food purchased among Russian Far East households. These results suggest that benefits of cooperation with Chinese farmers and retailers should not be ignored when designing policies towards sustainable development of rural areas in Russian Far East. Possible environmental, social and economic externalities of further soybean production in Russian Far East are also discussed.

Total sample is 367 respondents, by using analytical methods Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).</p><p>There is a Causal Relationship between the Input of CSR and an Integrated CSR Implementation, this is indicated by CSR Input (X) is significant and has positive impacts on the implementation of Integrated CSR (Y). The direct effect of the application of CSR (X) on the Implementation of Integrated CSR (Y) is 0.988. It means whenever there is an increase in the performance of the application of CSR (X) it will improve the implementation of Integrated CSR (Y) which is equal to 0.988 units. The results show that the model-based of Intervening Integrated CSR provides a significant and positive effect on socio-economic aspects thus The Strategic Program of Integrated CSR Model is very appropriate to be applied in the realization of an integrated and sustainable palm oil industry.</p>

The article discusses to what extent the arrangement of migration policy, social policy and access to the labor market of Switzerland generates pronounced insecurities in the living and working reality of refugees. We analyze this by way of example of the situation of refugees with a precarious residence permit status working in the hotel and catering industry. We bring forward the argument that this group of migrants is confronted with the exclusion of rights because of the Swiss asylum policies. At the same time, the refugees face specific processes of inclusion and exclusion within the labor market because of their residence status. On account of this, we bring working conditions of refugees into the center of the analysis of citizenship policies as a constitutive element. Moreover, we analyze intra-company negotiations of citizenship as well as the according practices of refugees. The analysis of our research questions is based on a three-step data collection procedure. The combination of different methodological approaches - problem-centered interviews, participatory observation within the companies, and informal interviews - allows for an in-depth analysis of the relationship between citizenship policies and the working conditions of refugees with a precarious residence permit status. We show that refugee workers are confronted with specific forms of disciplinary actions because of a lack of rights and accompanied intra-company citizenship policies. The workers accept the disciplinary actions and working conditions in order to acquire permanent residence in Switzerland in their struggle for citizenship rights.

Impact Of Urbanization

Ibn Khaldūn’s in-depth analysis of civilizational development and dynamics encapsulates the socio-economic impact caused by the shift from a migratory society to a sedentary society in human history. This shift is a precursor to and reflects the process of urbanizationand city living in modern life. Indeed,today’s economists, sociologists and policy makers are familiar with the problems of urbanization vis-à-vis social and economic imbalances as a result of decaying cities and neglected rural areas. The problems of urbanization are aggravated by globalizationbut there is little development in the understanding of the nature and impact of urbanization in the context of globalization. All indications are that the problems associated with urbanizationhas not only been unresolved but has worsened due to globalization. Furthermore, the emergence of cities and mega-cities around the globe together with the attendant socio-economic and political upheavals suggests a need to revisit urbanization economics. This paper attempts to contribute to fulfilling this need by drawing from Islamic scholarship with specific reference to Ibn Khaldūn’s ideas regarding civilizationaldynamics. Specifically, we will leverage on a conceptual and historical approach to revisit Khaldūnian key-concepts relevant to the socio-economic impacts resulting from urbanization. This would further inform us about the dynamics of urbanization as a globalizedphenomenon impacting upon the global economy and our understanding of urbanization economics.

Abstract The paper proposes a basis of theory with the aim of clarifying the casual nature of the relationship between the West Slavic and non-West Slavic Proto-Slavic base of the Slovak language. The paper links the absolute chronology of the Proto-Slavic language changes to historical and archaeological information about Slavs and Avars. The theory connects the ancient West Slavic core of the Proto-Slavic base of the Slovak language with Sclaveni, and non-West Slavic core with Antes, which are connected to the later population in the middle Danube region. It presumes emergence and further expansion of the Slavic koiné, originally based on the non-West Slavic dialects, with subsequent influence on language of the western Slavic tribes settled in the north edge of the Avar Khaganate. The paper also contains a periodization of particular language changes related to the situation in the Khaganate of that time.
