Financial frauds have been a growing problem across the global financial markets. Losses generated by such illegal activities affect both the global economy and individual entities, especially those operating in the financial market. Perpetrators of such frauds seem to always be one step ahead of the law enforcement, regulators as well as private sector entities such as banks and scientists. This review examines publishing actions taken throughout the years. It also shows whether there has been any correlation spotted between the number of papers published in a particular year and the events on the financial markets. The study involved a systematic literature review to achieve the set goals. Following the final results of the article, it is clear that the issue of financial frauds has been a growing global concern. It is crucial to strengthen the collaboration between the regulators, law enforcement, academic environment and private sector. Cooperation across the sectors should include research on how to prevent and mitigate the consequences of this kind of frauds.

In this paper, the author reviews the literature on institutions and their relations with agricultural economics. The aims of the article are to clarify the definition of an institution, indicate its relevance from the perspective of agricultural economics and propose a method of institution classification. Using the PRISMA method, 35 articles were selected out of 238 articles from the Web of Science database that met the established requirements (i.e. they were simultaneously related to institutions, economic performance and the agricultural sector). Based on the identified articles as well as the preliminary literature review it can be concluded that there is a lack of research that precisely defines institutions and examines the historical context at the same time. There are not many papers in which authors assess relations between institutions.
在本文中,作者回顾了有关机构及其与农业经济学关系的文献。文章旨在阐明机构的定义,从农业经济学的角度指出其相关性,并提出机构分类方法。采用 PRISMA 方法,从 Web of Science 数据库的 238 篇文章中筛选出 35 篇符合既定要求(即同时与机构、经济绩效和农业部门相关)的文章。根据所确定的文章以及初步的文献综述,可以得出结论:缺乏对制度进行精确定义并同时对历史背景进行研究的文章。作者对机构间关系进行评估的论文也不多。

Crisis conditions in the 21st century also reached the European Union countries, including Poland, and were reflected in the nominal and real economy. In particular, what suffered most was the fiscal condition of individual countries. To support the state of the economy, the economic authorities often took extraordinary, unconventional actions, which unfortunately resulted and still result in a deterioration of the state of public finances. It is therefore worth referring to this research and empirical problem from the perspective of the current and ongoing economic crisis.

The analysis of the contemporary labour market requires consideration and multidimensional interpretation of the concept of "insecurity" in relation to employment and job retention, as well as changes in working circumstances. It points to correlations between the concept of uncertainty and work efficiency and time. This article aims to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between job insecurity and productivity by looking at two important research issues that have received relatively little empirical attention so far. An intra-individual model is presented here, combining job insecurity, understood as a more or less continuous and long-term stress factor, with work efficiency. It was pointed out that job insecurity changes over time, and employees achieve better professional results feeling confident in their future in the workplace. It presents the mechanisms underlying job insecurity and labour productivity. A thesis has been proposed according to which the relationship between job insecurity and self-assessment of work performance may be non-linear, or more precisely "U-shaped". According to this perspective, it has been suggested that job insecurity negatively affects work productivity by weakening occupational energy, the so-called vigor, enthusiasm for work. The article can be a starting point for further studies on the problem job insecurity.
