This empirical study examines knowledge production between 1925 and 2015 in nonprofit and philanthropic studies from quantitative and thematic perspectives. Quantitative results suggest that scholars in this field have been actively generating a considerable amount of literature and a solid intellectual base for developing this field toward a new discipline. Thematic analyses suggest that knowledge production in this field is also growing in cohesion—several main themes have been formed and actively advanced since 1980s, and the study of volunteering can be identified as a unique core theme of this field. The lack of geographic and cultural diversity is a critical challenge for advancing nonprofit studies. New paradigms are needed for developing this research field and mitigating the tension between academia and practice. Methodological and pedagogical implications, limitations, and future studies are discussed.

Functioning on foreign markets under the conditions of high competition and cultural diversity requires companies to take actions related to adapting their offer to purchasers’ expectations. This applies in particular to marketing communication, including advertising. The aim of this article is to analyse consumers’ approach to cultural adaptation of advertising, analysing consumers making purchases under the influence of advertising and those not affected by it, according to sex and age. Based on the findings of empirical study of Polish population, the authors examine the correlation between the assessment of the above mentioned phenomenon and the variables characterising the sample. The presented findings indicate that Polish consumers regard the phenomenon itself as important; however, the study has not pointed to any statistically significant differences in the opinions of the examined sample with regard to consumers’ demographic characteristics or degree of susceptibility to food products advertising.

This paper is focused on the cultural diversity of Plovdiv city, Bulgaria that has been developed and preserved during the town’s existence and its impact of the cultural life across the country that eventually led to the election of the city as European Capital of Culture 2019. Several events not well known to the general public were key factors for the preservation of the multicultural appearance and diversity of the city. A review of the four-year framework of programmes, projects and events implemented under the project “European Capital of Culture” funded by European Union is presented. The aim of the article is to present an analysis of the possibilities and the specifics in the development of projects from the creative industries in the city. The article also reflects part of the results of an empirical survey conducted in the period 2017-2018 in the city of Plovdiv among 105 creative organizations through their managers. The purpose of the empirical study was to investigate the management profile of the art organizations, including the opportunities and capacities for developing and managing projects and using the European Union's creativity-related programs.

The increase in globalisation has made it essential for organisations in general to deal with a cultural diverse workforce. Undoubtedly, these increases are forcing both small and large companies to recognise the importance of dealing with cultural diversity by developing new procedures and policies to guide employees.  Recently, increasing workplace cultural diversity has become a significant issue for many managers of a good number of organisations in Kurdistan due to a proliferation of the presence of international businesses. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to examine the issue that borders on diversity of cultures since research in this area is almost non- existent in Kurdistan. The paper analyses the effects of cultural diversity on performance via some randomly selected organisations in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The data from our findings show that there is a positive correlation between cultural diversity and organisational performance.
