We analyze One Hit Wonders on the Billboard Hot 100 from perspective of both cultural production and optimal differentiation to try and understand how One Hit Wonders emerge. One Hit Wonders as a category do not cleanly fit into either the cultural production or optimal differentiation framework, and as in intermediate case illustrates the interplay between both consumer taste and institutional power in markets for cultural products.

The purpose of the article is an analysis of the current condition of formation and provision of cultural needs of modern humans. The methodology of the study is based on an interdisciplinary approach comprising analysis and synthesis, generalization, description. The scientific novelty of the results lies in the complex review of human cultural needs; the role of family, social and cultural institutes, and mass media is defined; the main problems influencing the cultural needs of modern Ukrainians are described. Conclusions. Modern people live in a fundamentally new society that requires deliberate satisfaction of needs. Cultural needs and the ways of their satisfaction, cultural products that a person consumes define its personality. The cultural needs of the 21st century should create striving for self-perfection and transformation of the world. The key role in the process is played by family, media, and social institutes. The governments should support the production and consumption of cultural products, providing wide access for their citizens and comprehensive satisfaction of their needs. Considering cultural products as intellectual achievements and at the same time, consumer  products related to the market rules make it possible.

Production Conditions

Innovators of in vitro meat (IVM) are convinced that this approach is the solution for problems related to current meat production and consumption, especially regarding animal welfare and environmental issues. However, the production conditions have yet to be fully clarified and there is still a lack of ethical discourses and critical debates on IVM. In consequence, discussion about the ethical justifiability and desirability of IVM remains hypothetical and we have to question those promises. This paper addresses the complex ethical aspects associated with IVM and the questions of whether, and under what conditions, the production of IVM represents an ethically justifiable solution for existing problems, especially in view of animal welfare, the environment, and society. There are particular hopes regarding the benefits that IVM could bring to animal welfare and the environment, but there are also strong doubts about their ethical benefits.

Uranium Exploration

Uranium mining often escapes the attention of debates around the nuclear industries. The chemical elements’ representations are focused on the nuclear reactor. The article explores what I refer to as becoming the nuclear front – the uranium mining frontier’s expansion to Tanzania, its historical entanglements and current state. The geographies of the nuclear industries parallel dominant patterns and the unevenness of the global divisions of labour, resource production and consumption. Clearly related to the developments and expectations in the field of atomic power production, uranium exploration and the gathering of geological knowledge on resource potentiality remains a peripheral realm of the technopolitical perceptions of the nuclear fuel chain. Seen as less spectacular and less associated with high-technology than the better-known elements of the nuclear industry the article thus aims to shine light on the processes that pre-figure uranium mining by looking at the example of Tanzania.

Abstract Tourist services represent a category of services in which the inseparability of production and consumption, the inability to be storable, the immateriality, and last but not least non-durability, induces in tourism management a number of peculiarities and difficulties. Under these circumstances the development of medium-term strategies involves long-term studies regarding on the one hand the developments and characteristics of the demand, and on the other hand the tourist potential analysis at regional and local level. Although in the past 20 years there has been tremendous growth of on-line booking made by household users, the tour operators agencies as well as those with sales activity continue to offer the specific services for a large number of tourists, that number, in the case of domestic tourism, increased by 1.6 times in case of the tour operators and by 4.44 times in case of the agencies with sales activity. At the same time, there have been changes in the preferences of tourists regarding their holiday destinations in Romania. Started on these considerations, paper based on a logistic model, examines the evolution of the probabilities and scores corresponding to the way the Romanian tourists spend their holidays on the types of tourism agencies, actions and tourist areas in Romania.
