DISPOSABLE COMMENSALITY: STRATEGIES FOR THE SELECTION OF MEALS IN THE OFFICE
Get PDFIn order to understand the act of eating it becomes necessary to place it within a determinate society, time and space, which are structured by concrete practices and organized by specific rules and norms. Knowledge about food consumption within the working space is relevant because the food practices deployed during office hours are linked to the relation between energy use and the replenishment of energies necessaries for the working tasks.These strategies of selection of meals by the women interviewed were organized in the articulation between the available physical space, the body and the available time for eating. These women seek to eat in the fastest time possible and therefore consume “fast food” and “light” food. At this way, a “disposable commensality” is structured as a way of everyday eating in the office, where the relation heavy/fast organizes the food practices in contrast to the body used as a recipient.The data for this article is part of a wider research in which I seek to describe the everyday eating practices of working women within the spaces of national public offices, in relation to their eating and commensality. The article begins with (a) the exposition of the bases connecting bodies/emotions with eating; b) present the meals selected daily and the strategies for the selections of these meals as explained by the women and c) d) explain the relation between food/body/space

Get PDFIn the deepening of the financial crisis, enterprises are trying to implement an effective anti-crisis policy. The financial system as a source of accumulation of modern crisis phenomena, which are spreading further to all spheres of the economy, generally require the formation of new instruments to ensure their financial and economic security. The constant increase in the riskiness of economic activity may entail a significant decrease in the level of financial stability and solvency of the enterprise, and in the future lead to bankruptcy, and requires each business entity to create a perfect system of financial and economic security.To assess the financial security situation at specific enterprises, not all financial and economic indicators that are used can be applied, but only those that most closely meet the requirements and most reflect the results of financial and economic activity, and, if possible, do not contradict each other.The modern business environment highlights the issues of ensuring financial and economic security.

BECKER’S ECONOMIC THEORY IN THE GENESIS OF THE INSTITUTE OF ECONOMIC POWER IN MODERN UKRAINE
Get PDFThe article analyzes problems of power in general and economic power in particular, appeared on the background of extreme conditions of the development of social relations in modern Ukraine, caused by radical transformation of social and state institutions. The author tried to consider the distribution of power authorities between main influence groups under conditions of globalization from the point of view of G.S. Becker’s theory, who stated that “… the economic approach provides maximizing behavior in more expressed form and wider approach, than other ones…” According to the author, the use of the economic approach at analyzing the genesis of the power institute in modern Ukraine is universal, because it is based on main economic paradigms of human behavior – acceptable, wholesale, imputed, shade and so on prices; repeated and reiterated, important and insignificant decisions; emotionally loaded and neutral aims; behavior of nouveaux riches, ill, medics, businessmen and workers, professors and students, law-abiding citizens and criminals. The application area of the economic approach, understood in such a way, is so wide that it includes the subject of economic science. The importance of studying power problems grows, when the researcher addresses to the concrete society, in which on the background on general processes of globalization, build-up of tendencies of openness of national economies, typical for the whole European civilization, radical changes of social and state institutions take place, and as a result extreme conditions of social development and human existence appear. Ukraine found itself in such conditions in last years, so it causes a necessity to consider possibilities of the effective distribution of power between main economic agents under conditions of global economy from new positions. Problems of the Ukrainian state also actualize the analysis of the mechanism of economic power to the great extent, in particular, in concerns the economic decay, complete dependence of Ukraine on external markets and influences, collapse of the “two-vector” policy, declared by the Ukrainian authorities during the years of independence – this all gives grounds for rethinking the role of power in the open economic system, which part is the native economy
