Author(s): Viktorie Klímová,Vladimír Žítek / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

The article is based on the assumption that research and development is a crucial source for creating innovations and increasing competitiveness. There are significant disparities in research and development across the regions of the European Union. Some regions have long been considered European research leaders, and other regions perceive them as an inspiration for themselves. However, the position of leaders may not be permanent. The aim of the paper is to assess how stable is the position of European regions, which have long been considered European leaders in R&D. For this purpose, gross and business expenditures on research and development were analysed, and their changes between the periods 2007-2009 and 2015-2017 were assessed. The analysis has shown that the Nordic countries, such as Finland and Sweden, are losing their good position. Increasing research activity has been observed only in the West Sweden region. On the other hand, growing trends have been detected mainly in some regions of Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic.

Finansal Tabloların Dili: Oran Analizi Yöntemi ile Bist Şirketlerinde Covid-19 Döneminin Finansal Etkilerinin İncelenmesi

Author(s): Onur ÖZEVİN / Language(s): Turkish Publication Year: 0

Şirketlerin finansal durumunun değerlendirilmesinde en kullanışlı araçlardan biri finansal oranlardır. Finansal tablolarda açıklanan veriler ile şirketlerin finansal durumu farklı parametrelerle analiz edilebilmekte, paydaşların ihtiyacı olan bilgiler sağlanabilmektedir. Finansal verilerin tekil olarak incelenmesi çoğu zaman yanlış yorumlamalara neden olabilir. Örneğin, kârı çok yüksek olan bir şirket yatırımcı için olumlu bir intiba verebilir ama kârlılık oranı çok düşük veya aşırı borçlu durumda ise karar durumu değişecektir. Bu risklerden korunmak ve sağlıklı finansal bilgi edinebilmek için çok yönlü bir analiz gerekir. Faaliyetlerin etkinliğini ve başarısını ölçmek, hedeflere ulaşma durumunu tespit etmek ve geleceğe dönük eylem planı hazırlamak için finansal tabloların analiz edilmesinde en kullanışlı araçlardan biri “oran (rasyo) analizi” tercih edilmektedir.

Prvi svjetski rat i hrvatska autobiografska književnost (Stanje, naznake i mogućnosti istraživanja)

Author(s): Filip Hameršak / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

The purpose of this introductory article is a consideration of options that autobiographical sources can offer to historiographical study of the First World War. Accordingly, the first chapter is a chronological overview of the historical works on the First World War published in Croatia and – to a lesser degree – in the whole region, which generally indicates that incorporated themes, putting aside methodological innovation, and partly even their conclusions have directly reflected political and social turbulences from 1918 to 1991. Apart from including larger number of researchers and having better material conditions, British, French, American, German and Australian post-1918 historiographies have generally been developed with significantly more autonomy and without neglecting methodological considerations, especially those concerning auto-biographical sources. The second chapter is therefore an attempt to fill – at least in the short lines – this gap in Croatian historiography, while the third is interested in the not always harmonious touch between historiography and literary theory. The fourth chapter presents a draft of relevant Croatian autobiographical literary corpus, a description of its general features, and an outline of the answers to some of the possible research questions.
