Abstract This article aims to disclose the role of strategic factors in the context of a sport club performance. We used 73 basketball clubs from four countries and tested the relationships between four segments of variables (grouped into: a) environmental factors’ set, b) strategic factors’ set, c) human resource management (HRM) factors’ set, and d) behavioral factors’ set) and two different aspects of organizational performance: 1) top-sport-financial and 2) recreational-non-financial performance. The conduction of multiple regression analyses resulted with disclosure of significant direct effect of the strategic factor on both aspects of the sport clubs performance. The results offer explanation how the strategic planning enhances the performance. Better results are achieved by the clubs that pursue specific organizational goals linked to only one aspect of performance. While the theoretical contribution reflects through the evaluation of the importance of different sets of organizational performance factors, from the practical perspective tis study discloses complementary organizational objectives and those organizational aims which are, from an aspect of sport club performance, in contradiction with each other.
摘要本文旨在揭示战略因素在体育俱乐部绩效中的作用。我们使用了来自四个国家的73家篮球俱乐部,测试了四个变量段之间的关系(分为:a)环境因素集,b)战略因素集,c)人力资源管理(HRM)因素集,d)行为因素集)和组织绩效的两个不同方面:1)顶级体育财务绩效和2)娱乐性非财务绩效。多元回归分析揭示了战略因素对体育俱乐部绩效的两个方面的显著直接影响。研究结果解释了战略规划如何提高绩效。追求只与表现的一个方面相关的特定组织目标的俱乐部会取得更好的结果。虽然理论贡献通过评估不同组织绩效因素的重要性来反映,但从实践的角度来看,本研究揭示了互补的组织目标以及从体育俱乐部绩效的角度来看相互矛盾的组织目标。

Abstract In the paper, we discuss the possibilities of alternative provision of public goods using the individual voluntary contributions. We use the data from the behavioral public goods game based on the model of voluntary contribution mechanism. We examine how people’s decisions about voluntary contributions to public goods change when the environment changes. The participants of the game were divided into small (5 persons) and large (10 persons) groups. During the game participants were asked to invest experimental money to different types of accounts, i.e. private account, Group account 1 and Group account 2. Using the game, we also examine the impact of a provision point on voluntary contributions. Based on the analysis of the data from this behavioral game, we found that the provision point is effective only if the participants are members of a small group. When the participants were members of both a small group and of a large group the provision point was not effective. When the income of participants was considered, we found that participants with higher experimental income were less willing to voluntarily contribute to financing of a public good.
摘要本文讨论了利用个人自愿捐款替代公共品供给的可能性。本文采用基于自愿贡献机制模型的行为公共产品博弈数据。我们考察了当环境发生变化时,人们关于自愿捐赠公共物品的决定是如何变化的。游戏的参与者被分成小组(5人)和大组(10人)。在游戏过程中,参与者被要求将实验资金投入不同类型的账户,即私人账户、组账户1和组账户2。通过这个游戏,我们还考察了供给点对自愿捐款的影响。通过对这一行为博弈数据的分析,我们发现供给点只有在参与者是小团体成员的情况下才有效。当参与者同时是一个小团体和一个大团体的成员时,提供点是无效的。当考虑参与者的收入时,我们发现实验收入较高的参与者不太愿意自愿为公共产品融资。

Abstract The world is battling out the pandemic of Covid-19. The World Health Organization (WHO) is jointly acting upon the same daily, which is evident from the ‘situation reports.’ The pandemic, which saw its origin in Wuhan, has spread across the world within a short span of under two months. While the pandemic has effectively instilled a situation of cordon sanitaire across the globe, the virus seems to show no respite. This study collates different sources and establishes the human tendency of knowledge hiding as the prime reason for the spread of such colossal magnitudes. The study underlines the notion by examining some of the critical cases and situations that have unfolded in the very recent past.
摘要世界正在与新冠肺炎大流行作斗争。世界卫生组织(世界卫生组织)正在共同采取行动,这从“情况报告”中可以明显看出这场疫情起源于武汉,在不到两个月的短时间内就蔓延到了世界各地。尽管新冠疫情有效地在全球范围内造成了卫生警戒的局面,但病毒似乎没有缓解。这项研究整理了不同的来源,并将人类隐藏知识的倾向确立为如此巨大规模传播的主要原因。这项研究通过研究最近发生的一些关键案件和情况,强调了这一概念。

The Contraction of European Economic Distances through Sustainable Tourism in the Pre-Pandemic Period 疫情前时期通过可持续旅游缩小欧洲经济距离

Abstract The current importance of tourism leads us to analyze the extent to which the receipts from international tourism, and tourism in general, influence the capacity of European countries to reduce the development gaps of this sector in the European context and the extent to which the economic growth is sensitive to changes in tourist arrivals, tourism receipts and expenditures. Studying the GDP per capita and the receipts from international tourism for the period 1995-2017, we find that the European tourism has an important role in economy but secondary to capital stock and exports. The methodology used is a sensitivity analysis and a multiple linear regression with two models. The results show that, on short term, the gap in the European tourism sector is explained by the ability to attract income from the international tourism. The European growth of the tourism sector depends to a large extent on the amount of expenditures that tourists are making, on tourism receipts and, to a lesser extent, on tourist arrivals, but in all cases, the connection is a direct and positive one but, even so, the capital stock and the exports continue to play a very important role for the European economy. The analysis suggests that tourism is not a panacea for growth. On the contrary, it is one of the activities that stimulate growth along with investments, technology, or any other form of capital, together with exports and labor market conditions.
摘要旅游业目前的重要性使我们分析了国际旅游业和一般旅游业的收入在多大程度上影响了欧洲国家在欧洲背景下缩小该部门发展差距的能力,以及经济增长对游客人数、旅游收入和支出变化的敏感程度。研究1995-2017年期间的人均GDP和国际旅游收入,我们发现欧洲旅游业在经济中发挥着重要作用,但仅次于资本存量和出口。所使用的方法是敏感性分析和具有两个模型的多元线性回归。结果表明,从短期来看,欧洲旅游业的差距可以用吸引国际旅游收入的能力来解释。欧洲旅游业的增长在很大程度上取决于游客的支出金额、旅游收入,在较小程度上还取决于游客人数,但在所有情况下,这种联系都是直接和积极的,但即便如此,资本存量和出口仍对欧洲经济发挥着非常重要的作用。分析表明,旅游业并不是增长的灵丹妙药。相反,它是与投资、技术或任何其他形式的资本,以及出口和劳动力市场条件一起刺激增长的活动之一。

Abstract The aim of this paper is to identify the determinants of the effective tax burden of companies in the activity division Telecommunication in the Republic of Croatia. The research covers the time interval from 2008 to 2017. Dynamic panel analysis was used to conduct the research. Microeconomic data were obtained from the databases of the Financial Agency, and macroeconomic data from the Central Bureau of Statistics. The results indicate that the effective tax burden of companies in the activity division Telecommunication is affected by the effective tax burden from the previous period, company size, leverage, inventory intensity, profitability and economic cycle. While capital and labour intensity didn`t prove statistically significant. The main limitations of the research lie in the impossibility of generalizing the stated results to all companies from the observed activity, using only one evaluation model, and being a cabinet-type research, without confirmation of the results obtained by companies. The research received several scientific contributions: this is the first study of the determinants of the effective tax burden conducted in the Republic of Croatia; the research covers an entire activity whit different companies sizes, and not as in most previous research, which mainly include only large companies listed on the stock exchange; unlike previous studies that used a balanced sample, and in most cases static panel models, this study used an unbalanced sample and a dynamic panel model.
摘要本文的目的是确定在克罗地亚共和国的活动部门电信公司的有效税负的决定因素。研究时间跨度为2008年至2017年。采用动态面板分析方法进行研究。微观经济数据来自金融厅的数据库,宏观经济数据来自中央统计局。结果表明,活动事业部电信公司的有效税负受上期有效税负、公司规模、杠杆率、库存强度、盈利能力和经济周期的影响。而资本和劳动强度在统计上并不显著。本研究的主要局限性在于无法从观察到的活动中将所陈述的结果推广到所有公司,仅使用一种评估模型,并且是一种柜子式研究,没有对公司获得的结果进行确认。这项研究得到了若干科学贡献:这是在克罗地亚共和国进行的关于实际税负决定因素的第一项研究;这项研究涵盖了不同公司规模的整个活动,而不是像大多数以前的研究那样,主要只包括在证券交易所上市的大公司;与以往使用平衡样本和静态面板模型的研究不同,本研究使用了不平衡样本和动态面板模型。

Abstract Recently, developments in digital technology have fuelled the emergence of online platforms that match the supply and demand of goods and services. In most European countries, platform work is still small, but it is strongly and rapidly developing. The types of work offered through platforms are ever-increasing, as are the challenges for existing regulatory frameworks. However, we still know very little about platform work, and there is a lack of understanding of the challenges regarding the working conditions and social protection of platform workers. Employers’ and employees’ organizations so far have no sharp solutions, and the Croatian government seems to prioritize other political issues. Although stakeholders are usually informed, the discussion about regulating platform employment and its possible widespread persistence has not started yet in the majority of EU countries. Particular attention in this paper is dedicated to the situation and determinants of platform work in Croatia.
摘要最近,数字技术的发展推动了与商品和服务供需相匹配的在线平台的出现。在大多数欧洲国家,平台工作仍然很小,但它正在强劲而迅速地发展。通过平台提供的工作类型正在增加,现有监管框架面临的挑战也在增加。然而,我们对平台工作知之甚少,对平台工作者的工作条件和社会保护方面的挑战也缺乏了解。到目前为止,雇主和雇员组织还没有明确的解决方案,克罗地亚政府似乎优先考虑其他政治问题。尽管利益相关者通常会得到通知,但大多数欧盟国家尚未开始讨论监管平台就业及其可能的广泛持续性。本文特别关注克罗地亚平台工作的情况和决定因素。

Abstract Various studies have analyzed employees’ perceptions with regards to voluntary turnover and very few studies have attempted to identify and assess the consequences of involuntary turnover on the employees. Thus, this study attempts at analyzing the consequences of any potential involuntary turnover on employees that can take place as a response to the economic crisis that will occur with the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors like role overload, job stress, occupational burnout and Work Family Conflict (WFC) has been identified as the resulting effects of any job losses. Significant and positive relationship was recorded among variables and the relationship between involuntary turnover and WFC and between job stress and WFC were rejected. The Conservation of Resources theory (COR) and the Spillover and Crossover theory were used to better understand the complexities of the matter. The limitations and future work prospects have also been discussed.
各种研究分析了员工对自愿离职的看法,很少有研究试图识别和评估非自愿离职对员工的影响。因此,本研究试图分析作为对COVID-19大流行将发生的经济危机的反应,可能发生的任何潜在的非自愿离职对员工的影响。角色超载、工作压力、职业倦怠和工作家庭冲突(WFC)等因素已被确定为任何失业的结果。变量间存在显著正相关,非自愿离职与工作压力与工作压力之间的关系被否定。资源守恒理论(COR)和溢出与交叉理论被用来更好地理解问题的复杂性。并对其局限性和未来的工作前景进行了讨论。

Abstract In the recent era, gold is considered an essential investment source, a source of hedging inflation, and a medium of monetary exchange. The gold and exchange rate nexus become prominent after events like sovereign debt crisis, subprime mortgage crisis, low-interest rate problem, and global financial market solvency. These events attract the attention of researchers and academician for investigating the dynamics of the relationship between gold and exchange rates, and the majority of the studies discusses the linear dynamics, but the non-linear dynamics are ignored. Therefore, the current research investigates the non-linear dynamics of gold price and exchange rate relationship in G7 countries using the new technique named the nonparametric causality approach. This study uses monthly data from the years 1995(January)-2017 (March). The empirical results show that exchange rate return causes gold prices in four out of G7, especially at the low tails. This study also gives valuable insights for monetary policymakers, gold exporter’s international portfolio managers, and hedge fund managers.
摘要在最近的时代,黄金被认为是一种重要的投资来源,是对冲通货膨胀的来源,也是货币交换的媒介。在主权债务危机、次级抵押贷款危机、低利率问题和全球金融市场偿付能力等事件之后,黄金和汇率的关系变得突出。这些事件引起了研究人员和学者对黄金与汇率关系动力学的关注,大多数研究都讨论了线性动力学,但忽略了非线性动力学。因此,本研究采用非参数因果关系方法对G7国家黄金价格与汇率关系的非线性动力学进行了研究。本研究使用了1995年(1月)至2017年(3月)的月度数据。实证结果表明,在七国集团中,有四个国家的黄金价格是由汇率回报引起的,尤其是在低尾部。这项研究也为货币政策制定者、黄金出口商的国际投资组合经理和对冲基金经理提供了宝贵的见解。

The gold and exchange rate nexus become prominent after events like sovereign debt crisis, subprime mortgage crisis, low-interest rate problem, and global financial market solvency. These events attract the attention of researchers and academician for investigating the dynamics of the relationship between gold and exchange rates, and the majority of the studies discusses the linear dynamics, but the non-linear dynamics are ignored. Therefore, the current research investigates the non-linear dynamics of gold price and exchange rate relationship in G7 countries using the new technique named the nonparametric causality approach.

Abstract The study assesses the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and organizational performance of the companies listed on Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE). It further investigates the mediating effects of employee satisfaction on the relationship between CSR and OP. The survey data was collected from 246 responses, comprising junior and senior staff, senior level managers who are in charge of the day-to-day running of the companies and they are in the position to provide adequate and sufficient information with regards to the companies. A SmartPLS (version 3.2.3) was used to analyse the data. The findings of the study show that CSR activities significantly and positively influence organizational performance. This influence is found to be pronounced especially when CSR activities are deliberately exercised toward internal stakeholders. A positive relationship was found between CSR and ESAT, while ESAT also influence OP positively.
