The redevelopment of brownfield sites requires the involvement of the skills and resources of the private operator for the technical risks associated with the transformation and the high financial commitments. In the current scarcity of public resources, among the most widely used schemes there is one that provides development rights of equivalent value to locate on the areas to recover in order to compensate the amounts incurred by the private investor. The model developed and tested in this paper deals with this theme. It produces a wide range of possible urban parameters to attribute to the regenerated areas, upon which it is possible to develop the negotiation between the public and private sectors in order to define the solution to be implemented. The experimental results of the model highlight the usefulness of activating regeneration initiatives, and in particular of contaminated sites.

The role of town centre management (TCM) schemes in the UK has expanded to incorporate a more overt and explicit focus on marketing and promotion. This paper considers the marketing/promotional activities of TCM schemes in the UK. TCM schemes operate at the interface of the public and private sectors. The implications of this are discussed, including the need for a consensual approach by a wide range of urban stakeholders, and the actual activities undertaken, influenced by the funding imperative under which such schemes operate (which impacts on the feasibility of certain activities and the efforts made to evaluate them). Comparisons are drawn between specific place marketing practice by TCM schemes and wider place marketing strategies.

Queues are part of everyday routine and experienced by most shoppers, yet little attention has been given to providing historical accounts of queuing as a consumer task or as a shopper experience. This paper examines grocery shop queues and the changing experience of shoppers in historical perspective, specifically focusing upon the shift from counter-service to self-service grocery formats in Britain from 1945 to 1975. The paper draws upon a wide range of material using evidence from oral histories and witness groups, which is supported by contemporary sources from the Mass Observation Archive, newspapers, shopper surveys, and trade publications and reports. The conceptual framework developed in the paper explores the public and private dimensions of queues to consider the experiences and perceptions of shoppers during a period of rapid change in the retail grocery system. More generally, the paper contributes to our understanding of how management innovations are connected to untraded public values.

Original Approach

In Italy, southern cities are often characterized by widespread phenomena of illegal settlements, that have resulted among other things in a worsening of the quality of life of the urban-rural interface, and the decline of the considerable architectural interest of the entire city. .The goal of this paper is to propose an approach that would help requalify what is already built, to make the best of what has been realized by focusing on the quality and liveability of the city. This approach is based on a particular methodology based on the promotion of Urban Complex Programs (PUC), which provide a system of development rights resulting from the demolition of unfinished illegal settlements . The benefits of this approach are many, including improvements in efficiencies and safety, meeting demands of environmental protection and reducing consumption of energy, responding to the highest standards of protection and seismic risk prevention. They can be obtained only on one condition: that they are based on a system of collective and public conveniences in accordance with the principle of sustainability in multiple dimensions (environmental, cultural, technological, political, institutional, social and economic). But for this approach to be viable it needs also to be convenient for the private actors as well. With this paper we hope to provide first an original approach that can improve the conditions of cities burdened with the problems of illegal settlements that is both sustainable and convenient and, second, an instrument that can provide information for both the public and private sectors on the fairness of the procedure and their mutual interest in pursuing this approach.

Abstract: Cryptography is a tool that guards a network and data transmission over a network. Data Security is the core aspect of secure data transmission over untrustworthy network. Network security encompasses the authorization of access to data in a network, which is organized by the network administrator. Users select or are assigned an ID and password or other authenticating information that permits them access to information and programs within their control. Network security covers a wide range of computer networks, both public and private, that are used in ordinary jobs performing transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks may be private, such as within a company, or private which allow access to the public. Network security is involved in every type of institutions. In this article we concisely outlined Network security and cryptography along with its basic principles. Keywords: Network, Network Security, Cryptography, Asymmetric Cryptosystems, Symmetric Cryptosystems

Democratic Discourse

M. A. Muqtedar Khan’s (ed.) Islamic Democratic Discourse: Theory,Debates, and Philosophical Perspectives examines how Muslim thinkershave and are trying to formulate systems for good and ethical self-governanceand the necessity, therein, for political discourse. The debates in theseessays, which span a wide range of subjects and periods, are held togetherby a common principle: political discourse has a long standing in theMuslim world. Given that the Muslim world’s conventional image is one inwhich autocratic regimes prevail, the significance of this argument, presentedhere from its theological, legal, and regional perspectives, is of greatimportance. For political discourse to be meaningful – that is, for it to be an exercisein the clarification and exchange of ideas and to lead, in some instances, toaction – requires that it take place both in the public and private sphere. Thepublic sphere may be more readily recognized as the proper space forpolitical discourse. However, the slippage of political discourse over to theprivate sphere is also of great value in that it indicates two things: first, politicalideas are recognized as important to both a person’s collective and individualsensibilities and, second, while political discourse is expounded in thepublic sphere, its ideas are often first worked out and subsequently reflectedupon in the private sphere ...

Lack of financial resources has become one of the main issues in fulfilling social and physical needs in urban development. The declining levels of public resources make the collaboration between public and private investors necessary. When facing the challenges of ageing population, shared investment may contribute to the appropriate development of sheltered housing to meet the goals of spatial planning as well as certain standards at the level of urban design. By ensuring appropriate living conditions for all generations such urban PPP projects may contribute to the fulfilment of the public interest. The paper presents practice of PPP implementation in Ljubljana, Slovenia, where local authority with the collaboration of private partners ensured more than 400 sheltered apartments in the last years. Examples show the extension of the idea from the 70s onwards in finding new models of housing for the aging population. The development of new models can be a good example of strengthening the cooperation between public and private partners in the field of urban development practice.

This small-scale study aims to understand what different environmental organisations are doing to engage people with brownfield sites in the U.K. Interviews with staff members from different environmental organisations found a wide range of initiatives to be in practice, including collaboration with other organisations and local schools and involving volunteer groups with maintenance of the sites. Working with volunteers and partner organisations and the management of sites were often identified as essential contributors to the success of projects. Interesting themes which arose, including the lack of demographic data and issues engaging with developers, could act as springboards for further studies.

The article is devoted to the analysis of foreign legislation regulating the conditions for seizure of land plots to meet public needs. The evolution of approaches to understanding the private property right from Antiquity to Modern age as long as the specific character of  property right to land including possibilities of its legal limitation for meeting socially prominent aims are explored. Special attention is paid to the Eastern European countries’ legislation as their statutory regulation of private property out of the command economy is relatively young. Having analyzed the constitutions, land legislation and law enforcement practice of several foreign states a conclusion is made about a similar legal structure of land withdrawal where expropriation is allowed in favor of both public and private subjects if their activity meets socially significant needs of a wide range of people and achieving this goal by any other way is impossible. The American practice of “economic analysis of law” allowing to appreciate the public benefit by the economic tools is positively assessed. It is also stated that it is impossible to envisage a list of specific situations that fall under the concept “public needs” and it is necessary to assess the correlation of public and private interests in each specific case. At the same time, in order to protect the rights of owners such an assessment should be carried out before the seizure including by public hearings.

And Gender

A large number of empirical studies have shown a wide range of positive effects of transformational leadership, which is arguably the dominating leadership paradigm in the last two decades. In this study, we ask whether this type of leadership is as common in public as in private organizations. Through a survey, the leadership style of 2488 leaders in Norwegian organizations with more than ten employees was mapped out. Focus is set on whether the occurrence of transformational leadership varies according to an organization’s publicness. It is hypothesized that the effect of publicness on transformational leadership will be mediated through bureaucratization, centralization, professionalization, pro-social motivation and gender composition. The study controls for organization size and task, variables often missing in comparisons of public and private organizations. The main finding is that publicness has no direct effect on transformational leadership when controlling for main task, organizational size and the leader’s gender. However, it does affect transformational leadership indirectly through bureaucratization, professionalization and gender composition. Based on the findings, more general implications for comparing public and private organizations are discussed. Points for practitioners It is often claimed that leadership in the public sector is different from leadership in the private sector. This study shows that such a claim is an oversimplification. First, there should be an awareness that leadership does not take place only in the private or public sector, but also in a myriad of hybrids between the public and the private sectors. Second, various challenges for leaders may be more strongly linked to basic features such as task and organizational size, rather than to whether an organization is public or private.

A exploração do petróleo se constitui num elemento significativo para a economia sergipana. A contradição existente entre o subsolo rico e a população pobre levanta indagações a respeito da gestão destes recursos e as condições de vida da população. Tais condições, aliadas à entrada de novos atores na exploração do petróleo em Sergipe e à gestão dos recursos advindos da exploração, vêm incutindo relações peculiares à política neoliberal na região e em Sergipe. O estudo foi desenvolvido a partir da análise e cruzamento de informações disponíveis na Agência Nacional do Petróleo (ANP), Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) e PETROBRAS, dentre outros setores. A carência de políticas sociais que ofereçam às populações condições de inserção nas questões política, econômica e social da região produtora de petróleo tem impedido o desenvolvimento efetivo e mudança no padrão de vida das populações, evidenciando a incoerência entre os altos valores depositados nos cofres públicos municipais decorrentes dos royalties e os elevados índices de pobreza apresentados na região. Tal constatação reforça a ideia de que as políticas públicas devem primar pela redução da desigualdade a partir da gestão responsável dos recursos públicos. Abstract OIL, ROYALTIES AND POVERTY The exploitation of oil has significant element for the Sergipe´s economy. However, the contradiction between the subsoils rich and poor people raises key questions about the management of these resources and the living conditions of the population. Such conditions, the entry of new actors in the scenery for the exploration of oil in Sergipe and the management of resources of exploration, instilling relations peculiar to neo-liberal policy in the region and in Sergipe. The study was developed from the analysis and crossing of information available in the national agency oil (ANP), the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the Court of Auditors (TCU) and Petrobrás, among other public and private sectors. The lack of adequate social policies which offer people conditions to insertion in political, economic and social - producing region oil Sergipe has prevented the development and effective change in the pattern of life, showing the inconsistency between the high values deposited in the public coffers municipal arising from royalties and the high poverty rates presented in the region. This situation reinforces the idea that public policies should be elaborated to reduce of the inequality from the responsible management of public resources.
