Οι εξελίξεις στην εκπαίδευση στην Ευρώπη και οι σχέσεις τους με την οικονομία
The educational changes in the European Union are being institutionally implemented during the
90’s. They were initiated by the White Bibles (books) of the European Commission and took their
final form in Bologna and the relevant subsequent meetings. The necessity of the reforms stems
from the new developments in economy and technology and the resulting needs of reform of the
global European era. Simultaneously, and in the framework of these general changes, efficacy and
efficiency were gradually generally recognized as the sole criteria of evaluation of, practically, every
aspect of social action. In this line of thought, education is to be evaluated mainly in terms of its
efficiency and its capacity to satisfy the demands of the market-based economy. Nevertheless, this
one-sided view of education, not only undermines the function of public educational institutions, but
marginalizes the possibility of viewing education as a social and public good that should be provided
to all members of society. Moreover, the blind fidelity to a close connection between shortterm
needs of the economy and education, could, in long-term, undermine this very notion of
economic efficiency that seems to actually regulate developments in the educational sector
Η βιώσιμη τουριστική ανάπτυξη στην Ελλάδα μέσα από το πολυεπίπεδο της τουριστικής εκπαίδευσης και κατάρτισης
According to the current trend, tourism education and training in Greece is developing
rapidly. It is provided by the public and the private sector through a line of ministries, legal
entities and other institutions. The involvement of so many institutions providing tourism
education at all levels of education and for a wide spectrum of tourism related professions
frequently causes confusion. The quality of the offered services in tourism is connected directly
with the educational characteristics of those involved in the wider tourism sector. In a tourism
developed market like Greece, with a variety of infrastructures and services, a «Comprehensive
System of Tourism Education and Training» should be created. This system should be
composed from different levels of education, which communicate, cooperate and compete with
each other, aiming to produce an educated and trained tourism personnel. The aim of this study
is to «map» tourism education and training in Greece, to evaluate the current system and
promote tourism education as a vehicle of viable economic and tourism growth
To human capital μοχλός μεγέθυνσης των οικονομιών: ανάλυση των διεθνών μελλοντικών τάσεων
The contribution of human capital is well recognized in organization’s and society’s prosperity.
Thus, the competitiveness of global economies is dependable not only on financial issues and assets
but also on organisation’s and more particularly on employees’ level of knowledge and expertise.
This paper presents literature on the effect that the application of educational programs and the full
use of academic knowledge on managerial issues could have towards the employees’ efficiency and
economy’s improvement. Although there is good knowledge and extensive writings on the subject
matter of human capital, however, a few research questions still remain unanswered. What is really
human capital? What are the constructs of the term (i.e., human capital)? How is it possible a
country to increase the levels of its human capital in order to become more prosperous and
competitive in the global arena (e.g., via the use of educational programs)? What writings in the
international environment on the matter of human capital have already offered? Review and critical
analysis of academic and managerial writings will be reviewed. The role of this paper is to explore the
future trends of human capital and their contribution to economy based on previous writings coming
from the international environment
The impact of educated employment on macroeconomic variables of countries around the world
The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the role of educated employment contribution
in economic development of countries around the world. We have used the highly
educated employment as an independent variable and macroeconomic variables such as real
economic growth, exports revenue, inflation, corruption, life expectancy, tourism revenues, and
access to internet as dependent variables in a regression model analyzing the data for 70
countries for the early years of the new millennium.
Our empirical results support the positive impact of educated employment contribution on
macroeconomic development indexes. Therefore the more and efficient contribution of educated
employment and consequently development of the so-called knowledge-based economy in
countries around the world with an emphasis on developing countries is suggested
Ολοκληρωμένη αγροτική ανάπτυξη και ο πολυλειτουργικός ρόλος των δασών: Θεωρητική και εμπειρική διερεύνηση
Σύγχρονα ρεύματα κοινωνικής έρευνας στις επιστήμες της διοίκησης με έμφαση στη λογιστική
Η λογιστική έρευνα στην πλειοψηφία της στηρίζεται μέχρι σήμερα
στο υποθετικοαπαγωγικό πρότυπο το οποίο περιορίζει το ερευνητικό
πλαίσιο στα όρια των γνωσιολογικών παραδοχών που πηγάζουν από ή
εξυπηρετούν την εμπειρική μέθοδο . Δεδομένου του ρόλου του ανθρώπινου
παράγοντα στη λογιστική διαδικασία αλλά και την αξιολογική
χρήση των λογιστικών πληροφοριών ερευνητικές μέθοδοι που αναπτύχθηκαν τελευταία στον ευρύτερο χώρο των κοινωνικών επιστημών πιστεύεται
ότι θα μπορούσαν να προσφέρουν "κοινωνικότερες" θεωρίες
δράσης στις επιστήμες της Διοίκησης και ειδικότερα στη Λογιστική.
Στην παρούσα εργασία δύο , εναλλακτικές της κλασσικής εμπειρικής,
μέθοδοι έρευνας - η ερμηνευτική και η κριτική - εξετάζονται σε αντιπαραβολή
με την εμπειρική.Mainstream accounting is heaνily influenced by the hypothetico -
deductiνe model of research which is based on restrictiνe epistemological
assumptions and produces knowledge used mainly for control and
administration. This paper reports on the features of two altematiνe
approaches to the traditional empirical research methodology - the
interpretiνe and the critical - which could in social science, and
accounting in particular, contribute to the process of mediating social
conflict by proνiding the policy maker with useful alternatiνe theories
