Analiza fiskalnih indikatora lokalnih samouprava u Topličkom okrugu
Efikasnost ekonomije svake države zavisi od fiskalnih indikatora kao pokazatelja makroekonomske stabilnosti. Značajnu ulogu u praćenju i analiziranju fiskalnih indikatora ima fiskalna politika, čiji je zadatak postizanje stabilnosti fiskalnog sistema i javnih finansija. Fiskalni indikatori prihodne i rashodne strane budžeta, kako centralnog nivoa vlasti, tako i nivoa lokalne samouprave, u znatnoj meri mogu otkriti da li je fiskalna politika valjano vođena. Na prihodnoj strani budžeta se kao glavna kategorija prihoda javljaju poreski prihodi, dok se na rashodnoj strani uvek pojavljuju tekući i kapitalni rashodi. Analizom fiskalnih indikatora lokalnih samouprava u Topličkom okrugu steći će se uvid u efikasnost upravljanja javnim finansijama
IoT Game-based Learning Model in Education
The subject of this paper is the development of
a game-based learning model based on the Internet of Things
(IoT). The main problem discussed in the paper is to investigate the possibility of implementing a game-based learning
model in an interactive educational environment that will
increase student interest and enhance learning outcomes.
The developed model will be based on ubiquitous computing
technologies and integrate IoT, mobile, and augmented reality technologies. The proposed model integrates with existing
components of the educational infrastructure. As part of the
model evaluation, testing and measurement of relevant parameters that affect the effectiveness of the proposed model
was carried out
What creates the innovative organisational design in science and research organisations (SROs) in Serbia?: The influence of strategic project management factors
Efficient strategic project management in SROs (Science and Research
Organisations) implies the existence of an integrated strategic management
concept closely linked to an innovative organisational design. The aim
of the paper is to examine the influence of certain factors of strategic
project management on creating an organisational design that encourages
innovation in scientific research organizations. An empirical research in
SROs in Serbia has been conducted as well. Our research is empirically
presented on the example of SROs in Serbia as a representative of developing
countries. Our findings show that the external and internal environment,
project portfolio, resources, monitoring, methods, and techniques mainly
influence an organisational design. These elements of strategic project
management account for 67.3% of the explained variability in a developed
regression model. This paper extends the current strategic and project
management literature with a new conceptual model on the link between
strategic project management factors and an innovative organisational
design in SROs. The presented analysis can help strategic and project
managers establish adequate strategic guidelines for organisational
development activities to improve the efficiency of scientific research
results and the level of their innovativeness
Does transparency pay off for green bonds’ issuers? : evidence from EU state agencies’ green bonds
This paper investigates the impact of transparent
allocation of proceeds on green bonds’ yields, providing
insights to green bonds’ issuers for optimizing their
financing terms. Using data from the EU state agencies’
green bond market, we applied a Prais-Winsten regression
model with correlated panels corrected standard errors
and common AR(1) to estimate the relationship between
green bonds’ yields and various factors, including the
transparency of proceeds. Transparent allocation of
proceeds has a negative effect on green bonds’ yields,
confirming that investors require lower returns when they
are well-informed about a bond’s environmental goals.
Additionally, higher credit ratings, and shorter remaining
maturity are associated with lower green bonds’ yields.
Transparent use of proceeds significantly influences green
bonds’ yields, demonstrating that specifying the use of
bond proceeds for environmentally friendly projects can
lead to more favorable financing terms. Future research
direction should provide additional classification of the
green bonds’ transparency
Crisis management in the function of effective destination management
Contemporary destination management implies a broader mandate
that has shifted the focus from traditional marketing and promotional
activities to strategic planning, coordination, and management activities,
integrating various stakeholders with a common goal. However,
environmental influences, especially negative ones, to which tourism
is highly susceptible, as shown by practice in recent years, also affect
the overall destination management process. The integration of crisis
management into the destination management process assumes that
specific procedures exist, adequate task forces are organised, and all
necessary resources are recognised, planned and activated at the onset
of the crisis. Recent experiences have shown that destinations like Serbia,
which failed to establish a destination management system, face much
more significant challenges regarding crisis management in tourism.
Given that we are increasingly living in the so-called VUCA environment,
tourism crisis management is exposed to unique challenges and requires
special skills and leadership that will be activated in risky moments. In
addition, it is essential to establish institutions with clearly defined tasks
and capacities because only the synergy of skills and knowledge, on
the one hand, and institutions (structures) will enable successful crisis
management in tourism
All Roads Lead to Beijing? Shifts in Chinese Labour and Capital During the COVID-19 Pandemic
The unprecedented global pandemic has shaken the world's foundations – upending legal institutions, toppling established principles of transnational governance, and limiting mobility between nations. In the People's Republic of China (the PRC or China), one of the most significant legal developments is the major reconfiguration of the state's labour and capital policies oriented towards its economic partners with emerging economies and economies in transition. These policies have changed dramatically, especially given the disproportionate impact of the pandemic on lower-income states. China's domestic situation and its need to meet evolving transnational demands also contribute to the reformation of these economic ties, and perhaps precede further changes to be implemented in the future. To provide much-needed insight into this ongoing transformation, this Article investigates how China's labour and capital policies towards its key international partners have developed in response to the pandemic. Drawing on three case studies, we use a socio-legal approach to analyse the status of migrants from African countries in China, labour immigration to China from its southwestern border regions, and the emigration of Chinese nationals to Serbia and the Balkans for the purposes of labour and investment. Through these representative developments, this Article unveils new trends in China's post-pandemic labour and capital policies, including enhanced responsiveness; a security-centric approach to border management; and an improving regulatory approach to ordinary migration channels
Participation of Women in Institutionally Sponsored Entrepreneurship Programs in Serbia: Some Statistical Facts
The analysis of female entrepreneurship in Serbia is the main topic of this paper.The analysis of entrepreneurship takes into account the underrepresentation of women in the self-employed population.Studies analyzing entrepreneurial intention, self-efficacy, and self-perceived employability similarly show a lower representation of women choosing the professional path of entrepreneurs. Studies on institutional support for women who participate in entrepreneurship programs are rare. Therefore, determining how participation in institutionally sponsored active labor market policy programs influences the growth of female entrepreneurship in Serbia is the purpose of this paper.According to the results of this research, Serbia has a substantial gender difference in self-employment. Less than one-third of business owners are women. Women made up almost half of those taking part in entrepreneurship training. In 2021 and 2022, they received more than half of all subsidies for entrepreneurs. However, these findings do not significantly affect the trend of self-employment in Serbia
The Right to (Digital) Platform Work: Is Everybody Welcome on Board?: International Conference, Belgrade, 21-22 June 2023
Značaj i uloga formalnog marketinškog obrazovanja : percepcija akademske i poslovne javnosti
Značaj edukacije za razvoj znanja i veština iz oblasti marketinga je nesporan, ali je malo naučnih radova
koji se bave ispitivanjem usklađenosti formalnog obrazovanja sa potrebama savremene marketinške prakse.
Ovaj rad nastoji da popuni identifikovani jaz. U tu svrhu, sprovedena su dva istraživanja. U prvom je analizirana
ponuda marketinških smerova i predmeta 165 akreditovanih visokoškolskih ustanova na teritoriji Republike
Srbije. Nalazi ukazuju da su teme marketinga, strategijskog marketinga, ponašanja potrošača i istraživanja tržišta,
zadržale liderske pozicije u nas tavnim planovima i programima, te da je primetan i trend brzog razvoja drugih
oblasti (npr. digitalni, internet i marketing putem društvenih mreža). U drugom istraživanju anketnim putem
ispitivani su stavovi i percepcije 117 pripadnika akademske i poslovne zajednice, iz oblasti marketinga. Rezultati
pokazuju da postoji saglasnost o značaju specifičnih znanja, veština i stavova za rad u marketinškoj praksi, kao i
o neophodnosti specijalizovanog formalnog obrazovanja za pozicije izvršnog direktora marketinga, brend
menadžera i marketinškog konsultanta. Nasuprot tome utvrđene su značajne razlike u percepciji akademske i
poslovne zajednice o osposobljenosti diplomiranih studenata da praktično primene marketinška znanja i veštine.
Rezultati istraživanja pružaju uvid u stanje i perspektive marketinga i uspešnost formalnog obrazovanja u
kreiranju znanja i veština diplomaca usklađenih sa zahtevima savremene marketinške prakse
