The difference between public relations and marketing lies essentially in its purpose: while marketing seeks to satisfy the economic needs of the company in the market, public relations pursue the confluence of interests of the organization in its environment and, as a consequence, optimal results in terms of public perception. Despite this distinction, the link between public relations and marketing has sparked broad theoretical debates, essentially reactive, from the relational postulates. While, from the perspective of public relations, the managerial character of public relations is emphasized as a directive function and the academic and professional difference between one discipline and another is deepened, from the postulates of marketing, it is naturally assumed that Public relations is a more integrated technique in the P of Marketing Mix promotion. The integrated management model "Marketing Public Relations" (Kitchen and Moss, 1995 and Papasolomou and Melanthiou, 2012), aimed at increasing efficiency in organizational management through the combination of public relations techniques and marketing techniques synergistically (Hutton, 1996 and Haywood, 1998), has been surpassed in recent years by new models, mainly corporate, focused on the systematic incorporation of specific public relations techniques along with those of merchandising and retail, under strategic postulates. Under this approach, through a qualitative methodological design, based on the concept of intra-method methodological triangulation that combines the case study method (2019 Mother's Day Campaign at the Spanish distribution company El Corte Inglés) and the use of secondary data sources (both bibliographic documents and documents of the organization under study), this article aims to analyze this emerging reality to conclude with the proposal of a comprehensive management model based on the concept of "Public Relations-Merchandising". The results derived from the study allow us to identify an integrated corporate model for managing public perception (and business reputation) and sales through the strategic use of commercial space and retail (merchandising). In this way, a new management model emerges, the “Public Relations Merchandising” model that pivots on four basic variables: - Issuer: companies are organizations and, as such, public relations can contribute to the development of their mission in society, mainly related to the generation of economic objectives derived from the sales process). - Recipient: understanding the client as a stakeholder implies that the company acquires a commitment to corporate behavior that necessarily responds to the expectations and interests of its buyers and consumers. These should be conceived as a key piece that underpins the organizational life and around which the company must build and develop (Pulido, 2017). - Context and message: the enormous growth of competition and the dizzying evolution of the purchasing process forces organizations to manage the shopping experience from relational postulates. The convergence of public relations and merchandising techniques drive a constant dialogue with customers through the profitability of the commercial space. It is possible to conclude that the integrated management of public relations applied to merchandising entails achieving a balance with the public, which, in turn, results in optimal levels of perception of the points of sale, the products and suppliers themselves, and even to buyers and consumers.

Efficient communication is one the most important instruments used for the purpose of generating change inside and outside an organization. It can contribute to adjusting attitudes and the manner of approaching the present and future challenges and to changing behavioral patterns. The mission and the objectives of organizational communication are highly interrelated with organizational change and environment characteristics, in which the organization functions. The communication performed by the public administration institution outside is an institutional communication, extra-organizational, which presents the following purposes: strengthening its image, stimulating an environment of trust and affinity from the citizens (Kotler & Lee, 2007). We are of opinion that the management of communication performed by a public administration institution features three fundamental aspects, relevant for institutional communicators when designing and managing the institutional communication: communication efficiency, communication process and the implications of the new information and communication technologies (ICT) for this process.

No saturation in the introduction, acceleration of spread and the increasing impacts of alien species are a characteristic feature of the Anthropocene. Concomitantly, alien species affecting human health are supposed to increase, mainly due to increasing global trade and climate change. In this study, we assess challenges and solutions posed by such species to the public health sector in Austria over the next few decades. We did so using an online questionnaire circulated to 131 experts and stakeholders working on human health and biological invasions, supplemented by in-depth interviews with eleven selected experts. Results from the online survey and in-depth interviews largely support and complement each other. Experts and stakeholders suggest that (i) the allergenic Ambrosia artemisiifolia (common ragweed), the photodermatoxic Heracleum mantegazzianum (giant hogweed), and vectors of diseases such as Aedes albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito) are considered the alien species posing the most severe challenges; (ii) challenges are expected to increase in the next few decades and awareness in the public health sector is not sufficient; (iii) effective and efficient solutions are mainly related to prevention. Specific solutions include pathway management of introduction and spread by monitoring and controlling established populations of ragweed, hogweed and mosquitos.

The problem in the health sector is one of the complicated problems faced by the government, this is evidenced by the extraordinary events (KLB) in various regions, one of which is the Hepatitis A outbreak in Depok that accumulates 306 cases. The main cause of these outbreaks is the low awareness and mentality of the public regarding the application of healthy and clean lifestyles and the government's preventive ability in terms of policies. Seeing this problem, the City Government of Depok has a strategic plan in the form of the Smart Healthy City (SHC) Depok policy as one of the policy efforts in order to improve the quality of public health through implementing technology and increasing competence in realizing the policy. This paper aims to review how the SHC Depok strategic plan policy can be collaboratively updated to carry out a mental revolution not only at the local government level, but also that policy can be understood by the public. The goal of the mental revolution is not only towards society, but also from the side of the government and various other parties. This paper was compiled from primary data in the form of in-depth interviews with various informants and secondary data from books, journals, and electronic sources. The expected outcome of the SHC Depok policy renewing itself is to improve the quality of services and improve the quality of public health based on preventive and collaborative actions.

Consumer relations that permeate a sportive mega-event are large and should be considered from the consumption of the games, as well as any modification of contextual consumption directly or indirectly caused. In a large extent, it is known that the World Cup impacts international, national and local consumption, even reaching the public not adept to soccer. However, in recent years can be observed in the country a counter consumption chain. Considering that, this study aims to understand the central objectives related to resistance movements to the 2014 World Cup. To achieve the proposed objectives, this research is conducted with a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews and secondary data analysis. The importance of this study is related to the context in Brazil lived in 2014 and mainly in the host cities. We conclude that the resistance is towards power relations existing in the market and not to the World Cup event, which is no longer associated with the symbolic aspect of soccer and is seen as a precondition and opportunity for greater dialogue among consumer, company and government.

Tinder, as one of the most popular online dating applications, is nicknamed as the hookup app. The negative perceptions inherent among the public were born because of how users in western countries operate the application, which does not follow the norms adopted in Indonesia. Many people assume that most Tinder users are those who are not looking for a long-term romantic relationship. The possibility of getting a partner who will commit to the relationship is not a common idea. This research aims to understand the development process of emotional intimacy and the initiation of a close relationship between Tinder users who have managed to find their partner through the Tinder application and communication mediated by computers (internet). This research uses a qualitative approach. In-depth interviews and Netnographic observations were used as the primary and secondary data collection techniques. This study indicates that although many Tinder users in Indonesia use Tinder similar to how people in western countries do, many users have finally succeeded in building long-term close relationships. Therefore, the perception about small numbers of Tinder users looking for long-term romantic relationships is not accurate.

The study examined the efficiency of Decision- Making Units (DMUs) in the public sector entities in Nigeria. The study focused on the efficiency in the utilization of personnel cost releases to the federal educational and health institutions by the Federal Government of Nigeria. Secondary data were sourced from the Annual General Warrants from Audited financial statements of the Public Sector entities. Sampled size for the study comprised twenty-five (25) DMUs each from both sectors out of the major Federal Ministries from four (4) geo-political Zones and Abuja. Data were analyzed using Data Envelopment Analysis Model (DEA). The results of the average efficiency scores from both Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes Model (CCR) and Banker, Charnes and Cooper (BCC) on the DMUs showed that the sectors were marginally inefficient. The summary of the overall results therefore revealed that the DMUs under health sector performed averagely better than education sector in the utilization of personnel cost allocations. The study recommended that a central monitoring team be created jointly by the Federal Ministry of Finance and Accountant-General’s office to ensure full utilization of personnel cost releases to the DMUs. The study therefore concluded that only continuous assessment and periodic appraisal of the personnel cost utilization by the supervising ministries, can guarantee full efficiency in the utilization of personnel cost releases.
