    No full text
    In the first part or the article we want to talk about general aspects concerning the analysis of profiles of public companies. We will proceed by way of consecutive approximation (Zappa, 1956, p. 12.) in such a way that we may better interpret the figures translating them into economic trends that mirror the situation in such companies and stopping, on the one hand, on the general lines that characterise those single situations analysed. In the second part of the article we analyse the effects of aptitude concerning the analysis of profiles of public companies. We will proceed to present a case studied at The University of Bologna about the identity chart of Rimini's public companies. The analysis of the profiles allows the company to make its decisions more in conformity with reaching its balance (Amaduzzi, 1988, p. 4) and they must be considered as trying to coordinate them both from the temporal, as well as from the spatial point of view

    Lo studio affronta il tema della tecnologia e dell'inclusione sociale all'interno dei musei tattili, in quanto istituzioni culturali dotate di una struttura espositiva in cui l'arte può essere fruita attraverso il tatto. L'obiettivo del lavoro è indagare la relazione tra innovazioni tecnologiche (IT) e processi di inclusione sociale per comprendere il ruolo del museo tattile nel promuovere un più ampio cambiamento culturale ed etico. Il disegno di ricerca, basato sulla letteratura che indaga il ruolo delle tecnologie nelle istituzioni culturali e le modalità di fruizione e gestione dei musei secondo una logica inclusiva, presenta un caso di studio qualitativo, il Museo Tattile Omero di Ancona (OTMA), tra i più significativi al mondo nell'offerta di servizi museali basati sulla percezione tattile. I risultati dell'analisi empirica evidenziano una stretta relazione tra IT e gestione dell'inclusione sociale nell'istituzione indagata.The study addresses the issue of technology and social inclusion within tactile museums, as cultural institutions that have an exhibition structure in which art can be enjoyed through touch.

    Full text link
    The aim of the work is to outline the contribution to nature-based solutions (NBS) of managerial paths regarding processes of social inclusion of cultural institutions. The article addresses particular aspects of heritage accessibility with respect to the community of a territory, making it more sensitive to disadvantaged people with special needs. Considering social inclusion as an important social challenge of NBS, the article examines a case study, the Tattile Polo (Tactile Centre), in which accessibility to culture plays a preeminent role, transferring the historical and artistic value of cultural products to visually impaired and blind people. Empirical study assesses the degree of social inclusion of this institution where the NBS approach helps develop inclusive pathways and improve the perception of the reality of these disadvantaged participants. The research defines a possible accountability model through the definition of indicators to measure the inclusive aspects of managerial action as a relevant challenge of the NBS approach

    Questo studio analizza i conti annuali delle piccole e medie imprese (PMI), confrontando due paesi Europei: la Croazia e l'Italia. Paesi caratterizzati da fattori ambientali di natura politico-istituzionale ed economica ben differenti. In sintesi, la Crozia è un Paese che affronta le sfide di una economia in transizione, l'Italia, pur facendo parte dei Paesi dell'Occidente più sviluppato, deve fronteggiare in questi anni un forte rallentamento della crescita del PIL. le indagini empiriche, svolte nei due Paesi, sottolineano le peculiarità del bilancio delle PMI alla luce dell'analisi "costi-benefici" prodotti dall'informazione contabile. Le problematiche affrontate dalle PMI sono analizzate considerando sia la rilevanza dei fattori ambientali che caratterizzano le due Economie, sia gli effetti del processo di internazionalizzazione in atto e della volontà politica di prouovere l'armonizzazione contabile Europea. Il nostro studio vuole essre un contributo al dibattito scientifico in corso sugli effetti dell'applicazione dei principi contabili internazionali (IAS/IFRS) alle pmi, sia per le sue considerazioni teoriche che per le evidenze empiriche riportate.This study analyses the financial reporting problems of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) located in two European countries – Croatia and Italy, reflecting different institutional and economic environments of a transitional economy and developed economy in stagnation.

The SMEs accounting problems are analysed in the light of internalization process and under the pressure of accounting harmonisation goals. Thus, our contribution is a survey, by theoretical and empirical point of view, on International Accounting Standard (IAS/IFRS) applicability to SMEs, which is one of the most important topics of the current international debate among accounting scholars and professionals

    The problem of cultural products accessibility to "vulnerable" people is currently very important, in order to spread a new and more inclusive approach. The aspects concerning tourism can be considered positively as an engine of sustainable development, or they can be perceived as a threat if the management is not carried out following the aims of sustainability and inclusion. Starting from the theoretical basis of sustainable tourism and based on Sandell’s model (1998, 2000, 2002), the work aims to evaluate inclusive processes and the possible contribution of managerial systems. The ability to manage inclusive processes is the basis for broad social change in tactile museums (Baldarelli and Cardillo, 2020). To this end, an empirical study was conducted at the Omero Museum in Ancona with the aim of evaluating and interpreting the inclusion processes
