Abstract:
The papers in this special section highlight three important questions in organization and management theory. First, evolutionary theorists studying organizations have an opportunity to address issues of organizations as units of selection. Trade associations focus their members’ attention on collective interests, creating shared understandings about issues and a collective identity that unifies an association and justifies calls for action by the association on the members’ behalf. Second, for scholars using historical and comparative frameworks, the study of trade associations presents an opportunity to study similar kinds of organizations in very different institutional settings. Many things that trade associations do are driven not because they are business interest associations but because they have to follow many of the same paths as other interest associations in the same institutional environment. Across nations, political systems differ substantially in the way interests can be pursued, with important contingencies including the difference between pluralist versus corporatist systems, the extent to which political institutions depend upon the information provided by interest groups, and the extent to which political institutions are actually open to lobbying. Third, trade associations represent powerful actors with the potential to undermine the pursuit of collective action for achieving public goods. For example, in the United States, to the extent that the decline of elite class cohesion and moderate business peak associations has weakened the forces of conciliation and compromise, strong trade associations may step into the void and make matters worse.

Abstract:
This article presents a comparative analysis of the social role of two voluntary associations of Turkish businessmen: TUSIAD (The Association of Turkish Industrialists and Businessmen) and MUSIAD (The Association of Independent Industrialists and Businessmen). These associations are approached both as mechanisms of interest representation and as agents of two different class strategies. Hence, the article highlights two types of organizational activities that accompany interest articulation and representation: first, the activities which seek to bind the “bearers of interest” or “members of class” into coherent communities, and second, those aimed at the promotion of particular macro-level social projects.

Abstract:
Most current theoretical treatments view business associations as rent-seeking, special interest groups. Yet, empirical research in a wide range of developing countries reveals a broad range of functions and activities undertaken by business associations, many of which promote efficiency. These positive functions address crucial development issues (emphasized in the New Institutional Economics) such as strengthening property rights, facilitating vertical and horizontal coordination, reducing information costs, and upgrading worker training. The associations that engage in these developmental activities tend to be well organized and staffed. This institutional strength depends in turn on high member density, valuable selective benefits (often delegated by governments), and effective internal mediation of member interests. In addition external factors, especially competitive markets and government pressure, encourage associations to use their institutional strength for productive ends.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the way in which Sri Lankan business associations contribute to addressing such issues and the motivation behind their contributions. Design/methodology/approach Data, in this study, came from publicly available sources (online news articles, newspaper articles, reports, etc.) and a series of unstructured elite interviews with leaders of Sri Lanka’s most prominent peak business associations. Findings Sri Lankan associations contribute to addressing problems associated with human capital flight because doing so, ultimately, benefits their members and secretariat organisations. Peak bodies make their contributions by easing the push factors that catalyse the outflow of skilled migrants from the island nation and helping to replenish skills in the country by engaging in initiatives aimed at training and developing workers, young people and entrepreneurs. Research limitations/implications The behaviours of Sri Lanka’s business interest associations and the logics that drive their actions are similar to those of their counterparts in other countries (as per academic literature in the area), where association membership is not state-mandated. Rational actions of business associations have the potential to produce socially beneficial positive externalities (as in the present case issues around the brain drain). Social implications Findings from this research can assist government bodies, non-government organisations and other civil society organisations develop a better collaborative relationship with the private sector in developing nations to tackle problems associated with human capital flight. Originality/value While there has been a lively debate, among philosophers and scholars of public policy, on how governments should help address issues associated with this phenomenon, very little attention has been given to the real and potential contributions of non-governmental, non-charity-based civil society groups such as unions and business chambers. This paper seeks to address this gap.

Abstract:
Falling in-between the category of employers and employees, solo self-employed persons are poorly accommodated by the traditional system of corporatist interest representation through which the interests of employers are represented in employers’ associations, and the interests of employees are represented by trade unions. For business associations ‘micro businesses’ with no employees are difficult to reach and serve, as their interests are considered distinct from companies with employees. Trade unions in many countries even resisted the emergence of solo self-employment, fearing that these and other flexible arrangements would undermine not only secure working conditions but also union solidarity. This study examines differences in membership of interest organizations among solo self-employed workers. Various types of organizations are investigated, not only trade unions and business associations, but also new freelancer associations. Theoretically, three categories of determinants are examined to explain differences in membership: economic explanations, social explanations, and political explanations. Empirically, survey data are used from the Netherlands, a country with an increase in self-employment and a diverse supply of interest organizations. It is concluded that economic determinants explain both ‘generic’ membership (of any organization), as well as membership of specific organizations. Social and political determinants do not explain generic membership, but instead help to explain why some self-employed workers join particular types of organizations.

Abstract:
This study analyses the possible impact of the European Union (EU) on the development of the relations between business interest groups and the government in Turkey, more precisely on the interventions of the business interest groups in domestic policy-making. Hence it deals with the links between the progress of the relationship between Turkey and the EU and the development of domestic interest group activity in Turkey.

The progress of Turkey’s relations with the EU enhanced the visibility of the Turkish Peak Business Organizations (PBOs) in representing Turkish business interests in Brussels. Moreover, the evolution of the activities of the PBOs, provides a broader understanding of the developments of the general characteristics of the relations between the government and business interest groups in Turkey. Hence the investigation focuses on the major Turkish PBOs.

We examine the relations of Turkish PBOs with the EU, essentially, on the basis of the observation of their transnational actions within the EU as well as their participation in financial and technical assistance programmes of the EU and in the joint institutional structures of the association regime between Turkey and the EU. By analysing these two dimensions we assess the repercussions of the socialization of the Turkish PBOs on their strategies of action in dealing with European Affairs, on discourses they adopted regarding domestic policy-making and on their organizational structure and policy agenda.

We elaborate our topic with reference to the Europeanization concept, which covers the examination of the consequences of the European governance on national systems. Through the Europeanization concept we observe the correlation between the progress of the Turkey-EU relations and the ongoing process of change in the patterns of interventions of the Turkish business interest groups in domestic policy-making.

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the development of the self-regulation of advertising in Sweden from 1950 until 1971. Self-regulation was initiated in the 1930s due to a business desire to regulate fair competition in marketing, and while it initially was a minor operation, the 1950s and 1960s were characterized by extensive development. When self-regulation was overtaken by state policies in 1971, it included several interlocking systems, of which parts survived the introduction of the state regime. The thesis’ aim has been to analyze how the rapid regime transitions in the self-regulation regime can be understood. The existing literature identifies four major transitions that occurred during the studied time period. To understand them, the thesis has studied the policy processes leading up to these transitions. Focus has been on the business interest organizations that controlled the regime and their regulatory strategies. Theoretically, the analysis has departed from the hypothesis that tensions between these organizations, due to their members’ different market interests and varying levels of exposure to regulation and public badwill, to a significant degree informed their strategic choices as well as policy outcomes. The results show that the policy processes preceding the regime transitions were characterized by internal tensions, whereby organizations representing advertisers, and to a lesser degree media carriers, due to their members’ higher level of exposure to regulation and public badwill, successfully supported stronger market policing, while ad agencies, being less exposed, as well as a peak industry organization for the proliferation of marketing largely opposed such measures, preferring a more lenient regulation. However, due to increased exposure to regulation and bad will, the ad agencies finally abandoned their opposition and took the lead in regulatory innovation through the introduction of an extensive clearance program that survived the launch of the state regime, becoming a key component in the co-regulatory structure that followed.

There is a new associative mechanism in Brazil referred to as a Business Cooperation Network (BCN) that has come to be utilized more and more frequently. BCNs consist of a clustering of small or middle-sized business entities that come together with the objective of the joint development of some activity that are common to all of them. This is achieved through the means of a new business entity formed for the purpose, even while the individual members maintain their own functional autonomy, owner's capital and legal identity as a company. Through the administrative policies developed by the government of the State of Rio Grande of the South, this new type of association has proliferated such that various BCNs are currently active. To the contrary of the configurations used in other countries, there is no legal personification to these business groupings; they have found in civil associations the most adequate structures to accommodate them. Therefore, the absence of proper norms for this new type of association has lead to legal problems that have no expressed solution in legislation. This research paper has the objective of filling in one of these voids. The question to be answered by the present study is whether or not the responsibility of answering to BCN liabilities and obligations corresponds to the member business entities clustered within them. The study has unfolded in three stages. Firstly, Brazilian legislation was analyzed with the purpose of finding answers to the questions raised. Secondly, a survey was carried out by visiting BCNs in the State of Rio Grande of the South in order to interview their directors and verify what practices they have adopted and what their perspectives are on them. Finally, a study of comparative rights was made to verify how the theme was treated in other countries where these clusters have their own legislation. The study sought to verify if there isn't a legal solution expressly provided for by law for this issue. From the survey it was discovered that the BCNs are consolidated as such, and that some of them are headed towards a new level of activity in this form. In almost all the countries studied, the option was for the subsidiary responsibility of the members of the BCNs as an offset to the lack of owner's capital. In conclusion, a coherent legal solution was sought to the issue in question based on all the facets of the study carried out
Há no Brasil um novo mecanismo associativo denominado rede de cooperação empresarial que tem sido utilizado cada vez mais no meio empresarial. Rede de cooperação empresarial consiste em um agrupamento de pequenas ou médias sociedades empresárias que se unem com o fim de desenvolverem em conjunto algumas atividades que lhes são comuns, através de uma nova pessoa jurídica constituída, mas mantendo a personalidade jurídica própria e a autonomia funcional e patrimonial de cada associada. Através de políticas públicas desenvolvidas pelo Governo do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul esse novo tipo associativo tem proliferado e várias redes de cooperação estão em atividade atualmente. Ao contrário do que ocorre em outros países, não há personificação jurídica própria para esses agrupamentos empresariais, que encontraram na associação civil a estrutura mais adequada para abrigá-las. Porém, a ausência de normas próprias para esse novo tipo associativo redunda em problemas jurídicos sem solução expressa na legislação. Este trabalho tem por objetivo o preenchimento de uma dessas lacunas. A indagação a ser respondida pelo presente estudo é se há ou não responsabilidade subsidiária das sociedades empresárias agrupadas em redes de cooperação empresarial pelas obrigações desta. A pesquisa se deu em três etapas. Primeiramente foi analisada a legislação brasileira no intuito de encontrar respostas à questão suscitada. Em segundo lugar foi realizada pesquisa de campo, por meio de visitas a redes de cooperação do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, para entrevistar seus dirigentes e verificar quais são as práticas adotadas pelas mesmas e suas perspectivas. Por fim, realizou-se um estudo de direito comparado para verificar como o tema é tratado nos países onde esses agrupamentos empresariais têm legislação própria. Verificou-se não haver uma solução jurídica expressamente prevista na lei para a questão levantada. Pela pesquisa de campo descobriu-se que as redes de cooperação estão consolidadas como tais, e algumas delas caminham para um novo nível de atividade em conjunto. Em quase todos os países estudados optou-se pela responsabilidade subsidiária dos membros dos agrupamentos empresariais como uma contrapartida à ausência de capital social. Concluindo, buscou-se apresentar uma solução jurídica coerente ao problema levantado, com base em toda a pesquisa realizada

Abstract:
La formation des travailleurs présente, à l’intersection des politiques publiques et de l’action privée, un objet potentiellement conflictuel. Le développement d’une offre différenciée s’est appuyé sur la détermination d’objectifs négociés. Les modalités de la préparation au travail divergent selon les branches professionnelles et les conceptions patronales des savoirs nécessaires à la production industrielle à à son organisation. L’offre publique et l’offre privée se sont tantôt opposées, tantôt complétées afin de répondre à l’ensemble des besoins en compétences. Le cas des industries métallurgiques et mécaniques de la région de Saint-Étienne, permet d’étudier les motivations et rapports de forces à l’œuvre. Depuis le Second Empire, l’offre de formation ne cesse de se développer. La pérennité de ces réalisations se révèle au départ fragile, par sa dépendance à l’initiative municipale ou à l’action collective privée. L’œuvre scolaire de la Troisième République modifie la donne. Le développement à partir de 1879 d’une offre municipale d’enseignement technique suscite la réaction du clan clérical, soutenu par les bourgeoisies catholiques locales. L’évolution de ces deux offres s’explique par une différence importante dans les objectifs de ces formations scolaires, entre, d’une part, savoirs scientifiques et techniques et, d’autre part, objectifs moraux et hiérarchiques. À travers les différentes stratégies patronales à l’œuvre, entre externalisation et intégration de la fonction formation, la préparation d’une élite ouvrière tend à placer la question de l’autorité au cœur du dispositif. Avec le début du XXe siècle, l’institutionnalisation des cours professionnels comme support de l’apprentissage ouvrier s’inscrit dans la continuité de la scolarisation des décennies précédentes. La montée de la conflictualité ouvrière, l’évolution des techniques de production et de leur organisation donnent une importance nouvelle aux compétences scientifiques et techniques. Le patronat, soucieux de ses prérogatives dans le domaine des relations sociales, tente de limiter l’intervention de l’État. La taxe d’apprentissage est un exemple remarquable. L’offre de formation ouvrière, publique comme privée, est confortée dans ses fonctions par le patronat métallurgique. Les innovations demeurent faibles jusqu’au développement difficile des formations professionnelles accélérées à la fin des années 1930. La Seconde Guerre mondiale confirme l’intérêt des employeurs pour des filières de formation moins engoncées dans les normes de l’Éducation nationale. L’étatisation de l’apprentissage ouvrier traduit enfin, après la Libération, le ralliement du patronat métallurgique à la forme scolaire
Vocational education and training presented a potentially conflicting object crossing the lines of public policies and private action. The development of a differentiated supply was based on the negociated determination of skills. The modalities of VET diverged according to professional branches. They followed different conceptions, related to the knowledge required by the industrial production and organization. Public and private VET supplies were sometimes opposed, sometimes supplemented in order to meet all needs. The case of metallurgical, metalworking and machine-building industries of the region of Saint-Étienne allows us to study the motivations and the balance of forces. Since the Second Empire, the supply for vocational training growed. The sustainability of these achievements was initially fragile. They depended on municipal initiative or private organization. The vocational schools founded during the early times of the Third Republic changed the outcome. The development of a municipal supply aroused the reaction of the clerical side, supported by local catholic bourgeoisies. The evolution of these paths was due to a significant difference in the objectives of theses courses. On one hand, VET was considered as a mean for the diffusion and scientific and technical knowledge. On the other hand, it was used as a way to diffuse moral and hierarchical principles. Through the various strategies at work, from outsourcing to integration, the training of a workers elite tended to place the question of authority at the heart of VET organization. With the beginning of the twentieth century, the initiated schooling process drove to the institutionalization of vocational courses, as a support for apprenticeship. The rise of workers’ conflictuality, the evolution of production et organization renewed the role to scientific and technical skills. Employers, willing to reinforce their leadership in the field of industrial relations, tried to limit the intervention of the state within VET. The apprenticeship levy was a remarkable example of such a resistance. The supply of workers training, both public and private, was reinforced in its functions by the metalworking employers. Institutional innovations remained weak until the tough developpement of accelerated vocational training in the late 1930s. The Second World War confirmed the interest of metalworking employers for a traning organization less squeezed into the standards of the ministry of National Education. Finally, after the Libération, the stateization of workers apprenticeship brought about the rallying of businesses to the schooling form

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Redovisningsbranschen står inför en ny våg av digitalisering som enligt en framtidsrapport från Stiftelsen för Strategisk Forskning har potential att automatisera bort arbetsuppgifterna för nio av tio redovisningsekonomer. Kärnan i denna nya digitaliseringsvåg är standardisering av begrepp och procedurer som gör att behovet av manuell interaktion minskas radikalt. Informationsjättar som Facebook och Google har visat vägen för vad som går att åstadkomma genom att tagga data med beskrivande metadata. Tekniken är redan här och det framstår som något av ett mysterium varför det dröjt så länge innan denna nya informationsteknologi fått genomslag inom revisionsbranschen. Denna uppsats startar med observationen att kontoplanen är en viktig del i den standardisering som krävs för att hantera den nya digitaliseringsvågen. Syfte: Denna uppsats syftar till att belysa temat digitalisering på redovisningsområdet utifrån fallet kontoplanen BAS. Metod: Fallet kontoplanen BAS har studerats med en explorativ kvalitativ fallstudie. Fyra styrelsemedlemmar i föreningen BAS har intervjuats vilket motsvarar halva styrelsen. Utöver detta har två intervjuer gjorts för att belysa de tekniska aspekterna av att översätta konventioner från redovisningspraxis till så kallade taxonomier. Rent tekniska aspekter på programmeringsnivå behandlas översiktlig med utgångspunkt i respondenternas expertis. Resultat: Frivillighet och anpassningsbarhet är viktiga värden hos kontoplanen BAS. Flera respondenter har uttryckt att de befarar att dessa värden kan gå förlorade om kontoplanen skulle standardiseras ytterligare för att passa in i en digital taxonomi. Samtidigt finns också en medvetenhet om att den nuvarande versionen av BAS inte är slutgiltig. Det finns ett behov av att tydliggöra skillnaden mellan flexibla konton och ramkonton som krävs för att redovisningsdata ska kunna användas för att skapa korrekta rapporter till myndigheter.
Background: The accounting industry faces a new wave of digitalization which, according to a future report from the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research, has the potential to automate the work of nine out of ten accountants. The core in this new wave of digitalization is the standardization of concepts and procedures which can reduce the need for manual interaction radically. Information giants like Facebook and Google have shown the way for what can be accomplished by tagging data with descriptive metadata. The technology is already here and it seems like something of a mystery, why it has taken so long before this new information technology gained impact in the accounting industry. This paper starts with the observation that the chart of accounts is an important part of the standardization required to handle the new wave of digitalization. Purpose: This paper aims at describing the theme digitalization in the accounting field, based on the case of the Swedish BAS chart of accounts. Method: The case Swedish BAS has been studied with an explorative qualitative case study. Four board members in the association BAS have been interviewed, which corresponds to half the board. In addition, two interviews have been made to highlight the technical aspects of translating conventions from accounting practices into so-called taxonomies. Pure technical aspects at the programming level are discussed in the light of the respondents' expertise. Results: Voluntary application and adaptability are core values of the Swedish BAS chart of accounts. Several respondents have expressed their fear that these values may be lost if the accounting plan would be further standardized to fit into a digital taxonomy. At the same time, there is also awareness that the current version of BAS is not final. There is a need to clarify the difference between flexible accounts and needed accounts required for accounting data to be used to create accurate reports to the authorities.

Abstract:
Este estudo tem como objetivo principal avaliar a formação do mercado de agências digitais no Rio Grande do Sul a partir de relações sociais e econômicas desencadeadas pelo empreendedorismo institucional coletivo de empresários, reunidos em uma associação de negócios (business association). O estudo fundamenta-se teoricamente nos pressupostos da Sociologia Econômica dos Mercados. A tese busca evidenciar a relevância de estudos sociológicos sobre a atividade empresarial, notadamente das associações de negócios, com ênfase sobre as ações que uma organização do tipo desenvolve na tentativa de conferir identidade, normas, padrões e fronteiras de atuação comercial e também profissional a um mercado de origem recente, isto é, o mercado de serviços de empresas designadas como agências digitais e que possuem matriz em território gaúcho. Por agências digitais entendemos todas aquelas companhias que têm projetos de Internet como atividade-fim, bem como conteúdo para outras mídias/plataformas digitais (celulares, TV digital e games), e que se situam na interseção de áreas de criação e Comunicação Social, como a Publicidade e Propaganda, e de base técnica, no caso de Tecnologia da Informação (TI). Como resultado desta tese, apontamos qual papel que uma associação de negócios (Agadi / Abradi-RS) desempenha no mercado de agências digitais do Rio Grande do Sul e qual o estágio em que se encontra a formação desse mercado, que possui caráter híbrido, reunindo mais de uma expertise.
This study aims at evaluating the market creation of digital agencies in Rio Grande do Sul privileging the social and economic relations triggered by the collective institutional entrepreneurship within a business association. The study is based on theoretical assumptions of the Economic Sociology of Markets. The study seeks to demonstrate the relevance of sociological research on entrepreneurial activity, particularly related to a business associations, emphasizing the actions of an organization created to give identity, norms, standards and boundaries for the commercial operations as well as to a recent professional market, that is, the market for services companies designated as digital agencies with headquarters in RS. For digital agencies it is understood all those companies that work with Internet projects, as well as with content for other media / digital platforms (mobile phones, digital TV and games), and which lie at the intersection of areas of creation and the Media, as Advertising and Propaganda, and technical basis, in the case of Information Technology (IT). The study examines the role the association plays for the creation of the market for digital agencies do Rio Grande do Sul and the stage it is in the formation of this market, which has hybrid character, gathering more than one expertise.

Abstract:
Lobbying should be strictly regulated – that is the major finding of this thesis. The thesis presents many reasons to enact stricter regulations. The principle one being that, as lightly regulated as it is, lobbying is corroding democracy in both Canada and the United States. The thesis opens with a deep investigation of how lobbying works in both countries. There are examples taken from the literature, as well as original qualitative interviews of Canadian lobbyists, former politicians, and officials. Together, these make it clear that there is an intimate relationship between lobbying and campaign financing. The link between the two is sufficiently tight that lobbying and campaign financing should be considered mirrors of each other for the purposes of regulatory design and constitutional jurisprudence. They both have large impacts on government decision-making. Left lightly regulated, lobbying and campaign financing erode the processes of democracy, damage policy-making, and feed an inequality spiral into plutocracy. These have become major challenges of our time. The thesis examines the lobbying regulations currently in place. It finds the regulatory systems of both countries wanting. Since stricter regulation is required to protect democracy and equality, the thesis considers what constitutional constraints, if any, would stand in the way. This, primarily, is a study of how proposed stronger lobbying regulations would interact with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, s. 2 (free expression and association rights) and s. 3 (democratic rights). The principal findings are that legislation which restricted lobbying as proposed would probably be upheld by the Canadian court, but struck down by the American court, due to differences in their constitutional jurisprudence. The thesis contends that robust lobbying regulations would align with Canadian Charter values, provide benefits to democracy, improve government decision-making, increase equality, and create more room for citizen voices. The thesis concludes with a set of proposed principles for lobbying reform and an evaluation of two specific reforms: limits on business lobbying and funding for citizen groups. Although the thesis focuses on Canadian and American lobbying regulations, its lessons are broadly applicable to any jurisdiction that is considering regulating lobbying.

Abstract:
This book takes an in-depth look at the study of Japan in contemporary Britain, highlighting the many strengths but also pointing out some weaknesses, while at the same time offering a valuable historical record of the origins and development of Japanese Studies in British universities and other institutions. It comprises essays written by scholars from universities all over Britain – from Edinburgh and Newcastle to Cardiff, SOAS and Oxbridge+, as well as contributions from various supporting foundations and organizations – from the British Association of Japanese Studies (BAJS) to the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures (SISJAC). It opens with an historical overview by Peter Kornicki, followed by chapters on the important role of missionaries in advancing Japanese language studies in pre-war Japan by Hamish Ion and the contribution of the British consular and military officers before 1941 by Jim Hoare. Japanese Studies in Britain gives a snapshot of the present state of Japanese Studies in Britain. It also provides an important new benchmark and point of reference regarding the present options for studying Japan at British universities. It offers in addition a wider perspective on the role, relevance and future direction of Japanese Studies for academia, business and government, students planning their future careers and more generally the world of education, as well as readers interested in the developing relationship between Britain and Japan.

Abstract:
Social business, was first defined by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Prof. Muhammad Yunus and is described in his books. Social businesses are non-loss, non-dividend companies created to address and solve social or environmental problems. Microfinance is another form of social businesses. Like an NGO, social business has a social mission, but like a business, it generates its own revenues to cover its costs. In a social business, the investors/owners can gradually recoup the money invested, but cannot take any dividend beyond that point. The purpose of the investment is purely to achieve one or more social objectives through the operation of the company. No personal gain is desired by the investors. The company must cover all costs and be financially sustainable, while achieving the social objective in sectors such as healthcare, education, poverty, environment, housing, climate urgency etc. Legal structures available to all enterprises can be used by social businesses. These are: for-profit organizations, non-profit organizations (associations, foundations), charities, co-operatives. However, there are legal structures specifically designed of social businesses. These are: benefit corporation, flexible purpose corporation, low profit limited liability company (L3C), hybrids, community interest company (CIC).The purpose is this study is to contribute to the Turkish literature related to social businesses. In this study, definition of social business and microfinance will be given. The characteristics of social business will be indicated, social business examples will be presented and finally legal structures of social businesses will be analyzed. This study is descriptive study.

Abstract:
We use unconventional data to assess regional entrepreneurial activitytogether with regional variations in personality (or culture) driving differencesin business formation as advanced by Obschonka et al. (2015). In this paper,we expand recent research using virtually contemporaneous, andgeographically granular, user online activity to estimate a region’s proclivityfor entrepreneurship. We assess the statistical relationships between businessformation, operationalized as establishment births, and the web activityassociated with a user’s interest in “third places” – informal gathering andmixing locations – and sites related to arts, music and design – “arts spaces.”We operationalize interest in and association with third places and arts spacesby the website activity geographically based in U.S. ZIP codes. Initiallydeveloped for marketing analytics, these data are derived by severalproprietary algorithms that create consumer profiles based on a person’spurchase interests, hobbies, activities or topical preferences as expressed byweb activity.Controlling for regional interest in entrepreneurship related web resources,we find that interest in third places and art spaces can explain more than halfof the variation in regional business formation. Establishing that regions witha high concentration of consumer interest in third places and art spaces mayattract the attention of would be entrepreneurs as desirable places to live, workand explore business opportunities may help address the critical missingingredient in regions with lower rates of start-ups and business growth.

Abstract:
The development of social entrepreneurship in Slovakia was accelerated by the adoption of a new law on its support in 2018. Most of the 123 registered social enterprises have the legal form of a business company, they are of integration enterprises type and the founders are mainly municipalities. Third sector organizations are not active enough in setting up social enterprises. The aim of the paper is to find out what are the barriers and potential for the development of social entrepreneurship in the third sector. Primary and secondary data sources were used in the work. The survey method was used for characteristic of social entrepreneurship, the awareness of municipalities and third sector organizations about the social economy and barriers to the establishment of social enterprises in third sector organizations. The biggest barrier to the development of social entrepreneurship in the third sector is unsystematic funding, the complexity of compliance with rules and regulations and the absence of mapping the needs of disadvantaged groups. There are 2 types of entities with the potential to establish a social enterprise, namely non-profit organizations providing services of general interest and civic associations. They are prerequisites for the establishment of a social enterprise because they employ a relatively high number of disadvantaged and vulnerable persons and are engaged in public benefit activities that can be the subject of generating profits in social enterprise. The awareness of third sector organizations about social entrepreneurship is much higher compared to municipalities, but they feel barriers to the establishment of a social enterprise.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to propose a method to explore and synthesize social media data in order to aid businesses to make their communication decisions. The research was conducted at the end of 2014 on 5607 Italian Facebook subjects interested in drugs and health. In this study, we refer to the pharmaceutical market that is characterized by strict legal constraints, which prevent any promotional activities (such as advertising) of companies on prescription drugs. Thus, pharmaceutical businesses tend to promote their corporate brand instead of a single product brand. In such context, social media offer the opportunity to gather customers’ information about their attitudes and preferences, helpful to address marketing activities. Through a multivariate statistical approach on Facebook data, we have highlighted the associations existing between TV channels and users’ profiles. Therefore, depending on the value proposition to promote, every business could choose, first, the target group to reach and, then, the nearest suitable channel where to develop the corporate brand communication.

Abstract:
In Latvia, the global business services sector accounts for 2.3 % of GDP, and its share in total service exports is 8 %, while the turnover of the sector in 2019 was estimated at EUR 400 mln., which indicates that the global business services sector in Latvia is an important component of the national economy. The global business services sector in Latvia has developed relatively recently, so it has not yet been sufficiently assessed and researched. The aim of the research is to describe the factors affecting the development of the global business services sector in Latvia. The research concluded that the global business services sector in Latvia was promoted by such factors as the availability of labour and low labour costs, as well as a relatively favourable business environment. The potential of the global business services sector in Latvia is also characterized by its advantageous geographical location, especially from the perspective of Scandinavian investors (including in terms of cultural similarities), as well as the foreign language skills of potential employees. The establishment of the Association of Business Service Leaders in Latvia (ABSL Latvia) (the only such an association in the Baltic States that defends the interests of this sector) is also an important driver for the development of the sector.

Abstract:
Proposals for a Regulation on a Single Market For Digital Services (Digital Services Act) and Regulation on contestable and fair markets in the digital sector (Digital Markets Atc) of 15th of December, 2020 were long-avaited tools, through which, in the field of digital services, a higher degree of legal certainty for the consumer should be ensured and the functional responsibility regime of online platforms should be secured, in direct proportion. Submitted proposals preceded open public consultation of interested stakeholders, including the general public, academics, digital companies and other businesses, associations, civil society public authorities, and trade unions. The need to adopt adequate legislation in line with rapid technological development also stemmed from the fact that the E-commerce Directive was adopted in 2000 and has so far been considered as the main legal framework governing the issue of digital platforms, but it is also necessary to add that the regulation of online platforms has been mainly left to the Member States. As much of the activity has shifted to the online enviroment, digital platforms are playing an increasingly important role in our lives. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relevant provisions of the proposal in the context of competition rules and also in view of the increased use of online platforms due to the global crisis. The content of the article will also contain a brief comparison with the current legal situation with reference to the practical implications that await us with the adoption of the new legislation.
