Articles on Issue Theme

“Lumea şi viaţa”, în sensul lor larg, sunt formate din “oameni care sfinţesc locuri” şi din “lucruri făcute la timpul lor”. Iar “economia ştiinţei” nu face excepţie. Istoria “adevărată” nu depinde doar de accesul la arhive şi săpături în situri arheologice, ci şi de limpezimea minţii cu care ştergem praful de pe ele. Deşi trecută, istoria lumii se rescrie în fiecare secundă în care ne înnoim stocul de relicve sau recitim ceva mai clar vechiul. Privite şi mai apăsat prin ochii speciei umane, litosfera, hidrosfera, atmosfera şi biosfera nu sunt altceva decât stocuri şi fluxuri de resurse la dispoziţia “antroposferei”, învelişul (pretins) inteligent al planetei care prin acţiunile sale le poate exploata înţelept sau şi le poate întoarce împotrivă. Uniunea Europeană este constructul politico-economic poate cel mai vivace istoric şi versatil geografic; unul care îşi a-/de-/re-clamă cu pasiune sustenabilitatea.

ECONOMIC HISTORIES AND GEOGRAPHIES [ISTORII ŞI GEOGRAFII ECONOMICE]

Society is a component element of Popper’s third world, i.e., of the world formed by objectivizing the content of thoughts (ideas, theories, desirability, etc.), objectivation achieved mostly by social action. This means that the social “objects” (i.e., economic) appear, become and disappear only by social action. One may say that the social ontology is, simply, the effect of the social praxeology.

Keywords: political product, social construction, evolutionary process

European Construction. Intellectual Project vs. Emergence [Construcţia europeană. Proiect intelectual vs. emergenţă]

The hypothesis from which this research starts is represented by one of the biggest problems of the Cohesion Policy, namely the degree of difficulty related on demonstrating its efficiency results. From more than forty years of interventions, the contribution of Cohesion Policy reported to the economic development and growth is still constant and uncertain.

Keywords: regulation, property, prices, EU structural funds, cohesion policy, economic growth, economic development

Economic Growth Analysis Based on the Cohesion Policy Instruments [Analiza creşterii economice bazată pe instrumentele politicii de coeziune]

The focus of the present paper is on the importance that the chance to education has for those people who forced by the war in their home country (e.g., Syria and Iraq) have to relocate themselves and adapt to a foreign culture, the culture of the adoptive country (Romania). In some cases, taking this opportunity to be enrolled in official educational programmes may help the refugee integrate deeper and faster.

Keywords: refugee influx in Romania, official educational programme, economic implications

Education and Employment Chances for the Refugee Influx in Romania

In recent years, the image and role of women entrepreneurs have received important facets, with significant results on the development of new jobs and also with aspects on renewed business approaches. In the same time it is important for policy makers to have separate information concerning the dichotomy between the human genders, both for employers and self-employed.

Keywords: female entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship education, PIA, OECD, employment, employer, self-employed

Women Entrepreneurship: Enough Data for a Fair Analysis?

Private actors have long embraced behavioural economics as a way to boost sales and profits, yet, until recently, the line of study had not been endowed with a front row seat in the hall of economic policy development. This year’s recipient of the Nobel Prize for Economics, Richard H. Thaler, increases the proportion of behavioural economists upon whom the prestigious award has been bestowed to 6%.
