Abstract

Social phenomena, documented in newspapers’ articles, and the publications for public enlightenment were analysed by hermeneutic – interpretative, content analysis and grounded theory methods. The components of unstable human environment were found: envy, abrogative behaviour of people with highest position in life, a lack of social confirmation, negative influence of parents, and the cruelty. Reaction to unstable surroundings was the retirement from public and civic life, the usage of alcohol and drugs abuse accompanied by violent outbreaks, and emigration. Retirement from civic life is strengthened by self – criticism, self – isolation, big sensitiveness for critics, inactivity; usage of alcohol and drugs are tied with inner emptiness, social and psychological vulnerability; real emigration linked to belief in possibility to run away from unstable and cruel surroundings.

Abstract

The research focuses on evaluation of the Blue Flag programme implementation in Latvia since the year 1998, when the programme’s operations started. It includes analysis and an overview of both the national and local level impacts and the results of the programme implementation. With regard to national level, approach and experience, the overview focuses on effectiveness and the role of the Blue Flag programme as a supporting instrument for successful implementation of environmental legislation. This programme is also analysed as a communication instrument in promoting environmental policies within 500 km long of coastline areas, which in Latvia are announced the national interest territories aiming at both particular protection and also development, especially, as tourism destinations. On the municipal level, our approach and overview present analysis of the Blue Flag criteria and their implementation experience in different municipalities. Moreover, we study the overall impact of the programme on environmental performance of the municipal sector regarding coastal protection issues. The Blue Flag survey also reviews selected municipal case studies: Liepaja, Ventspils, and Saulkrasti. After reviewing the overall programme’s performance in Latvia, the study concludes with an elaborated set of multi-level suggestions on potential improvements that would strengthen the programme’s further implementation and facilitate better and wider use of its potential not only for particular designated and size limited coastal destinations as the Blue Flag beaches and marinas. The programme’s potential could also be used for voluntary and facilitated coastal governance and coastal communication within the whole municipality and eventually further afield, turning from spreading of coastal information and almost established education towards coastal participation and the whole scale pro-environmental behaviour.

Journal: Res Humanitariae Volume 19, Issue 1 (2016), pp. 120–143

Abstract

The article is concerned with semantic functions of the postverb up – the second component of English verbs of the type move up, fix up, round up (Vup-s) from the point of view of changing the lexical meaning of the verb and its aspectual characteristics in terms of terminativeness / durativeness, and modes of action. Analysis and classification of Vup-s according to their lexical meaning and modes of action reveal the systemic character of the language. Vup-s are viewed as derivational units – analytic words – in the plane of word formation theory.

LITHUANIAN PATERNAL HEALTH BEHAVIOR: ALCOHOL AND RELIGION

Pub. online: 4 Aug 2022 Type: Article

Open Access

Journal: Tiltai Volume 77, Issue 2 (2017), pp. 119–130

Abstract

This paper explores the relationship between paternal religious affiliation, practice, and health behavior, namely consumption of alcohol. This research models alcohol consumption as an aggregate sum of weekly glasses of wine, 50 ml vodka shots, half-liter bottles of beer, and cocktails. The model includes religious confession among other independent variables including self-reported health status. In confessional comparison, the largest fraction, Catholic, is the reference category opposite Orthodox, Protestant, Other non-affiliated believers and Atheist. Significantly, Other believers and Lithuanian Protestants consumed significantly more alcohol than Catholic respondents. A unit increase in prayer or religious reading did not significantly predict a change in alcohol consumption. However a unit increase in weekly work hours significantly decreases alcohol consumption in contrast to a unit increase in time spent with children. Higher consumption is associated with lower self-reported health status.

Abstract

The de-institutionalisation of the last two decades brings a poignant focus on social inclusion, exclusion and how to facilitate informed lifestyle choices among people with intellectual disabilities. This study explores some of the developments and challenges in participatory inquiry involving lay experts such as people with intellectual disabilities, their advocates and service staff in sheltered occupational sites. The core outcomes in this study are the collaboration between all involved actors identifying and implementing the service improvements needed. It was concluded that an inclusive joint research methodology may be a key and fundament for the development of supporting and empowering social care practice for this said population.

Abstract

Homo sapiens, as the highest biological species, develops and upgrades its ideas about the environment, and changes its behaviour to

the natural factor; this way, it changes the institutional norm, which has the greatest impact on human behaviour. Natural ecosystems

maintain their balance themselves. Regarding artificial systems such as agro-systems, when the anthropogenic impact violates their

adaptive capacity, development becomes unsustainable. The current research is aimed at finding the synergy between EU policy and

the management of land resources. The policies with the most influence are the Green Deal and the CAP, and are the main subject

of this research. Their impact on land management is shown using a scientific method, and includes the review of literature sources,

expert methods, and ad hoc evaluation, plus SWOT analysis. In agriculture, a number of policies have changed in order to create

synergies between the biological factor and the institutional environment. There is potential for synergy between policy and good

management.

Abstract

Dviračių dalijimosi sistema (DDS) skatina Klaipėdos miesto ir priemiesčių gyventojų darnų judumą, t. y. trumpu atstumu (3–5 km) po miestą keliauti nuomotais dviračiais. Tokia nauja keliavimo tradicija, ypač šiltuoju metų laiku, skatina kasdienio judumo poreikiams naudoti dviračius kaip keliavimo lengvaisiais automobiliais alternatyvą. Straipsnyje apžvelgti kitų šalių pavyzdžiai, skatinantys po miesto teritorijas keliauti dviračiais, išanalizuotos DDS įgyvendinimo socialinės ir geografinės dimensijos Klaipėdoje. Geografiniu požiūriu vertintos keliavimo dviračiais sąlygos, dviračių infrastruktūra, takų būklė. Aptarti miesto ir priemiesčių gyventojų apklausos dėl DDS vystymo, poreikio keliauti dviračiais rezultatai. Parengtas DDS stotelių geolokacijos planas atitinka gyventojų keliavimo po miestą dviračiais poreikį, skatinant darnaus judumo principų įgyvendinimą.

Abstract

Financial disturbances can be costly. In particular, systemic events in financial markets, such as banking crises, often affect the whole society in a deeply traumatising way. Consequently, it is important to anticipate risks of such adverse development so as to try to prevent that kind of disaster and ensure financial stability. Author of this paper analyses fragility of financial system of Latvia to the fluctuations in global economy and changes in direction of international capital flows by creating complex financial system stability index. Results have proven that dynamics of every developed sub-index show unique economic processes defining Latvian financial system’s stability. Secondly, sub-indices analysis allows to determine that Latvian financial vulnerability began to worsen in 2005, however, Latvian financial stability downward movement started in 2002, that in its turn shows the necessity for Latvian economic policy makers to get more actively involved in preventing growing risks of economy. Latvian financial system stability index established in this working paper and its accompanying methodology can be further used in follow-up research and Latvian financial stability index improvement.
