The Past

Auch wenn Kondratieff’s „Theorie der langen Wellen“ bis heute statistisch nicht valide nachgewiesen ist, hat sie doch das volkswirtschaftliche Verständnis von Konjunkturzyklen in den letzten 85 Jahren maßgeblich geprägt. Aber die digitale Wirtschaft stellt das Paradigma kapitalgetriebener Innovationszyklen zunehmend in Frage. Kreative Ideen, die Angebote und Kompetenzen intelligent zu Services verbinden, geben der Wirtschaft neue Wachstumsimpulse. Tradierte Managementkonzepte werden dieser veränderten Wirklichkeit nicht mehr gerecht. So ist in vielen Branchen der Aufbau von Eintrittsbarrieren heute nicht mehr möglich – und in einem dynamischen Umfeld mit schwer vorhersagbaren Entwicklungen meist auch nicht mehr sinnvoll. Unternehmen müssen deshalb die Fähigkeit zur Zusammenarbeit in Netzwerken verbessern, um Innovationsquellen auch außerhalb des Unternehmens und seiner angestammten Vertriebskanäle zu erschließen. Unternehmenskultur wird in diesem Umfeld zum Wettbewerbs- und Erfolgsfaktor. Until today, Kondratieff’s „Theory of long waves“ is not validated statistically. Nevertheless, it has significantlyinfluenced the macroeconomic understanding of business cycles in the past 85 years. But the digital economy is challenging the paradigm of capital driven innovation cycles. Creative ideas that intelligently combine competencies to services are the new drivers of the economy. In this environment, traditional convictions of management become obsolete. In many industries, for example, companies can no longer build sustainable entry barriers – which is also not useful in a dynamic environment where the competitor of today can be the partner of the future. Therefore, companies must improve their ability to work flexible together in networks that use sources of innovation and distribution channels beyond the company’s own resources. In such an environment, corporate culture becomes a critical factor of competitiveness and success. Keywords: zukunftsfähigkeit im 21 jahrhundert erfolgsfaktor unternehmen

The Relationship

Twenty married couples with one partner diagnosed as having diabetes at age 40 or older within the past 5 years participated in this study. Participants completed the diabetes or family version of Beliefs About Diabetes (BAD) and the Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS). Results showed that perceived barriers to diet and to medication by the person with diabetes were associated with higher marital satisfaction and quality of marriage. In contrast, for the nondiabetic spouse, the perceived benefits of diet were negatively associated with the ability to work with the diabetic spouse. Additional research is needed to better understand the effect of diabetes on the marital relationship.

Purpose According to the perspective of evolutionary economic theory, the marketplace continuously evolves over time, following the changing needs of both customers and firms. In accordance with the theory, the second-hand apparel market has been rapidly expanding by meeting consumers’ diverse preferences and promoting sustainability since 2014. To understand what changes in consumers’ consumption behaviors regarding used apparel have driven this growth, the purpose of this study is to examine how the second-hand apparel market product types, distribution channels and consumers’ motives have changed over the past five years. Design/methodology/approach This study collected big data from Google through Textom software by extracting all Web-exposed text in 2014, and again in 2019, that contained the keyword “second-hand apparel,” and used the Node XL program to visualize the network patterns of these words through the semantic network analysis. Findings The results indicate that the second-hand apparel market has evolved with various changes over the past five years in terms of consumer motives, product types and distribution channels. Originality/value This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the changing demands of consumers toward used apparel over the past five years, providing insights for retailers as well as future research in this subject area.

Abstract It is a core content of enterprise performance research evaluating and comparing enterprise performance in dynamic environment. In allusion to this problem, a variety of enterprise performance assessment methods and indexes systems are proposed. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a kind of effective mathematical model which is used for comparing the performance among enterprises or different units inside an enterprise, based on the real-world data. Through comparing the performance, DEA can evaluate the enterprise performance from scale effectiveness and technological effectiveness, and then get the performance optimization goals. Critical Factor Index (CFI) is a new enterprise performance assessment method proposed in recent years. This method, based on the performance perception of business leaders or staffs, evaluates the enterprise performance in different dimensions, and then gets the optimization strategy of enterprise resource allocation to improve integrated enterprise performance. This paper has structured a new evaluation and optimization system for performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which combine properly the DEA and CFI method to evaluate and optimize the SMEs’ performance comprehensively, and has confirm this system with data of 5 Finnish SMEs.

This study introduces the early development of digital economy in Indonesia. e-Business activity is growing at an unprecedented rate in Indonesia as indicated by the number of online real time transactions (Real Time Gross Settlement) recorded by Bank Indonesia (Indonesian Central Bank), the emergence of dotcom companies, and the use of ICT in conventional business (a combination of brick & mortar with click/online). Research was conducted by investigating the digital activities of businesses. Unfortunately out of the 109 businesses approached, response rate was very poor with only 30 responding (27%). This is not uncommon in Indonesia for a variety of reasons. Results from the four variables utilized in this study, e-Distribution Channels, Value Creation, Online Products & Services, and Online Infrastructures, indicate that the development of digital economy in Indonesia is still in its early stages due to a number of encountered obstacles.

International Success

Although Norway's information-technology (IT) industry has never been an international success, it has been a critical factor in the country's economy over the past thirty years. Several IT companies came close to reaching a global scale, but escalating costs finally prevented them from doing so. In addition, the IT firms became sidetracked by the domestic sales opportunities that accompanied the expansion of the Norwegian oil sector, as they chose to design specialized products for national markets instead of targeting the international market-place. Although their decision resulted in organizational continuity, the firms themselves have experienced turbulence, bankruptcy, and change, making the development of the sector a messy and problematic affair.

Whilst online dating has been around for several years; immersive technologies are relatively new to this type of interaction. The first forays into immersive VR online dating have only just being made in the past year. To what degree this type of technology will change the way that we date is potentially quite different from the current way that online dates are conducted. The way the technology works could make virtual dates seem as real as a physical date. Understanding how immersive technology functions gives some insights into the future of online dating and also the impact on the digital economy.

Per Capita

The article presents the research results of Kondratieff cycles in the economy of Finland on the basis of real GDP per capita over the period of 1860–2008 years. The using of economic and mathematical modeling has allowed estimating the power of long duration business cycles, revealing the chronological framework of long waves: the third, fourth and fifth. Kondratieff’s theory has served as a methodological basis for the study of processes: the emergence, the domination and the withering away of technological structures. Regression analysis has allowed establishing the productivity of different technological structures in the Finnish economy.
