World of economic affairs has always been a tough world in which to survive and prosper is not enough to have a brilliant idea. Individuals who initiate a business must possess a number of characteristics combined with financial resources contributes to success of the business started. Among the necessary characteristics of a successful entrepreneur are: perseverance, availability to work, initiative, selfconfidence, a positive attitude towards failure, the ability to grasp the emerging opportunities on market, acceptance of risk and uncertainty. Entrepreneurship is a mindset, and in Romania does not exist a tradition of entrepreneurship as it exists in developed countries. Therefore it is encouraging that future economists do not reject the idea of getting involved in a business and take into account the option of becoming entrepreneurs.

Образовање личности: између спољног детерминизма и слободе

Author(s): Nada Vilotijević,Ljiljana Mitić,Goran Vilotijević / Language(s): English,Serbian Issue: 3/2018

This paper discusses the understanding of personality from social, psychological and philosophical aspects. It is emphasized that a person is a unity of unique and universal properties and has the right to freely develop his/her potential and live in accordance with the needs of his/her spirit. There are some contradictions between personal needs and interests of society. Education is an area that should help every individual to express his/her unique individuality. Education, however, acts between the two poles -free decision making, on the one hand, and social (state) coercion, on the other. Externally imposed determinism and the instrumentalist-market approach to education significantly restrict freedom of an individual to self-develop in accordance with his/her needs.

Shekspiri në 400 vjetorin e vdekjes - Jeta: si u bë Shekspiri Shekspir

Author(s): Muhamet Hamiti / Language(s): Albanian Issue: 35/2017

“He was not of an age, but for all time!” wrote poet and playwright Ben Johnson, a contemporary of Shakespeare, in his poem “To the Memory of My Beloved the Author, Mr. William Shakespeare” in 1623, on the occasion of the publication of the great author’s plays (The First Folio), edited by two members of his “The King’s Men”. William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was buried in the small town of Stratford-upon-Avon, his hometown, and not in the ‘Poets’ Corner’ at Westminster Abbey in London, where Chaucer and Spenser had been buried earlier, whereas Ben Johnson later, arguably because the society of the time had not recognized the Bard’s greatness.Data about Shakespeare’s life are scant. Shakespeare is his literature, his poetry and plays; his comedies, historical dramas, tragedies. Shakespeare is the writer who produced the largest gallery of characters in English literature. He wrote for the aristocracy and the commons; he satisfied the elite and entertained the uneducated. Four hundred years on, Shakespeare is viewed as the first universal writer, the writer who invented the human, whereas Hamlet, his pre-eminent literary character, one of the great modern myths, ‘the most quoted figure of Western consciousness after Jesus Christ’, according to American scholar Harold Bloom.The lecture dwells on the universality and originality of Shakespeare’s oeuvre beyond the tendency of the recent decades (Marxist, Structuralist, Historicist, Feminist) which see it not the result of his genius, but rather of prevailing social circumstances and the relations between word (language, discourse) and power. Likewise, discarding patriotic English ideas that his work was subversive to power. Shakespeare had patrons, and lived and worked close to the royal circles during the reins of Queen Elizabeth I and King James I. Censorship of the theatre was vigorous at the time.The lecture shall outline the history of the rise of William Shakespeare to the pedestal in the last couple of centuries, but also the geography of the outreach of his works. It was the French who resisted most of all in Europe the rise of the ‘barbaric genius’, as they branded him in the age of Classicism. With Goethe, the Germans co-opted him in their culture. This is what many nations have done. This is true for the Albanians too, except for the era of Enver Hoxha’s dictatorship, which looked suspiciously towards literature that was at odds with the dogma of Socialist Realism. The dictatorship could not ban him outright, though, and Albanian translations of Shakespeare lived abundantly in both Albania and Kosovo. Albanian writer Fan Noli is as identifiable (as translator) with Shakespeare, as he is with his own poetry and “The History of Scanderbeg”. The rendering of Shakespeare in our mother tongue has demonstrated the power of Albanian language.

Shoqëria kosovare: interneti, shumësia dhe cilësia e informatës

Author(s): Florent Rrahmani / Language(s): Albanian Issue: 35/2017

The rapid technological development in the Internet era, besides having greatly facilitated life, in many societies, it has caused confusion, uncertainty and insecurity in the technological, economic, political, cultural, sociological and psychological aspect.In such a rapid period of an indispensable development and in step with other societies, the internet has enabled the presence of other media everywhere, both in urban and rural areas, and has facilitated the extent of its impact, becoming the basic source of information. Moreover, almost all other media, such as newspapers, portals, and television stations, use the internet as a communication network. Therefore, many cultural phenomena have remained under the shadow of online media development, as one of the leading information agencies.The Kosovar society, as never before, is informed and has access to various information domestically and in the world. But on the other hand, the information processing system on the Internet does not refer to any verifiable public culture or standard and thus, over-information (information hyper-production) creates cultural and social problems of information quality, namely of the public authority that verifies the information. Not only Kosovo but other countries are also facing this danger...How to create a trusted public authority that provides information? This is the dilemma that deals with the amount of information today and with its quality, even in Kosovo, without forgetting also the other (social, propagandistic, economic) motives on which today’s internet culture is set up as a kind of industry.

ФОРМУВАННЯ НАЦІОНАЛЬНОЇ ІННОВАЦІЙНОЇ СИСТЕМИ - СТРАТЕГІЧНИЙ ПРІОРИТЕТ РОЗВИТКУ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО СУСПІЛЬСТВА

Author(s): Galina Pavlovna Klimova / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 4/2018

The article analyzes the essence of an innovative society and the conditions for its formation. Varieties of innovative systems that exist at the macro, meso, micro, and local levels are considered. The content of the main theoretical and methodological approaches to understanding the essence of the national innovation system is discussed. The peculiarities of the national innovation system are analyzed. Consider the conditions of its origin and development. The role of the state in its formation is analyzed.Problem setting. One of the global characteristics of our time is the approval of innovative development as the dominant mode of social renewal, the formation of an innovative society that is not just open to innovation. It constantly generates innovations of various types and levels. Its functioning depends entirely on the speed of the introduction of new knowledge into all spheres of public life. Such a society is characterized by the growing dynamics of complex social transformations due to the intensity of development and widespread social progress. It deals with the continuous practical implementation of new ideas, inventions in the form of innovative products of labor or technologies for their creation, methods of organization and management of production to improve all qualitative and quantitative economic and other social indicators at both micro and macro levels.Recent research and publications analysis. In the scientific literature, the problems of the formation of the national innovation system are widely discussed. They are at the center of attention of well-known scholars (S. Glazyev, E. Bistritsky, I. Koval, S. Krylov, M. Mikhalchenko, L. Musina, A. Popovich, S. Prolyev, M. Rogoz, O. Starovoit, and others.). Paper objective - to provide theoretical and methodological analysis of the essence of the national innovation system, to consider the conditions of its origin and development, to analyze the role of the state in its formation.Paper main body. The formation of an innovative society is a long and complicated process, supported by the following factors: 1. consistent and long-term innovation policy of the state, with well-defined goals and objectives;2. rational use of existing innovative potential as a foundation for implementing innovation policy and the formation of an innovative society;3. strengthening cooperation between research, education and production sectors;4. targeted support of the most important areas of research and development;5. commercialization of innovations;6. attraction of foreign investments of transnational corporations;7. continuous study and implementation of best international experience in the innovative development of the economy of society as a whole As the experience of industrialized countries shows, the formation of an innovative society starts with the formation of a national innovation system geared towards obtaining and using new scientific knowledge, promoting the development of advanced technologies, research and development, and improving the quality of human capital. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) defines an innovation system as a set of private and public sector institutions that individually and in collaboration provides the development and dissemination of new technologies Innovative systems are diverse. Summarizing the points of view in the scientific literature, one should highlight the innovative systems that exist at the macro, meso, micro, and local levels. At the macro level, we are talking about the global innovation system, international and transnational systems that are its components, as well as the national innovation system (NIS). On the meso-regional highlight regional innovation systems, at the micro-level - industry (cluster) innovation systems, and at the local level - the innovation system of a particular enterprise.National innovation systems of individual countries differ significantly from one another, which is manifested in the choice of priorities and objectives of innovation development, mechanisms of interaction between the private and public sectors, the importance of large and small businesses, the ratio of fundamental and applied research and development, the dynamics of development and the sectoral structure of innovation activity. Accordingly, in the world practice, several basic models of national innovation systems are distinguished: the European-American, Japanese, South-East Asian and alternative innovation system.As the world experience shows, the main role of the state in the formation of national innovation systems is to stimulate the activity of the entrepreneurial sector in the development of innovative products and the financing of innovation activities.Conclusions of the research. The most important direction of stimulation of innovative processes abroad is to provide tax privileges to scientific organizations, as well as enterprises and investors. This allows the state to stimulate innovation activity in priority sectors, to influence not only the structure and number of scientific organizations, but also the structure of production.

Корпоративната социалната отговорност в обучението по вътрешен контрол и вътрешен одит

Author(s): Valeria Dineva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2018

SMEs are seen as the cause of serious negative environmental impact due to the cumulative effect of their activities, resulting in a general pollution exceeding that of large companies. The transition of SMEs to green management is essential for the reduction of this impact on the environment and for making the use of energy and natural resources efficient. This article aims to explore the opportunities and challenges for SMEs in Bulgaria in relation to green management. The study, directed at micro, small and medium-sized companies in the country, aims through in-depth interviews to reveal their views on green business management and the expectations and challenges related to it. The obtained results allow to outline guidelines for the implementation of green practices as well as topics for future green management training among SMEs. The study's limitations are mainly related to the selection of participants who are representatives of micro, small and medium-sized companies from different sectors of the economy without any claims of representativeness. This does not allow generalization of the conclusions for the whole country as well as for all economic sectors.

Author(s): Ekaterina Tosheva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2018

The aim of this paper is to study the yearly dynamics of the main indicators for higher education in the EU and in the EU member states in the 2003-2016 period. In particular, this piece of research is focused on the differences in the level and dynamics of the following indicatrs: the share of students in tertiary education, the share of the population with higher education and share of government spending on higher education. A comparative analysis has been carried out along these indicators in terms of gender and knowledge area. By using cluster analysis, the EU member states are classified into uniform groups along the four selected indicators at the start and at the end of the studied period. The differences in the groups are analyzed. Even though Bulgaria has reached the EU average in terms of the share of students and other indicators, the country ranks among the worst performers in the EU with regard to government spending on higher education. The results of the cluster analysis confirm that, compared to the EU average, Bulgaria and Romania are still lagging behind in public expenditures on higher education as a share of GDP and as per capita GDP.

Wartości relewantne w społecznym świecie aktorów polskich publicznych teatrów dramatycznych – w świetle wybranych ujęć typologicznych

Author(s): Emilia Zimnica-Kuzioła / Language(s): Polish Issue: 66/2018

The aim of the article is to analyze the statements of actors of Polish public dramatic theaters, which is to lead to the reconstruction of the axiological system that directs their actions. The theoretical framework is determined by the typology of values proposed by the Max Scheler’s phenomenology representative (hedonistic, vital, spiritual, cognitive, aesthetic and moral-religious values) (Scheler 2004; Tatarkiewicz 1990: 219). Leon Dyczewski developed the Scheler typology, adding material and sociocentric values (Dyczewski 2009: 193). Such thematic arrangement allowed me to indicate the values that are important both in the personal and professional life of Polish theater artists. I used both existing sources (published journalistic interviews with actors and directors) as well as induced (free interviews conducted by me with Polish actors).
