No full textData are part of the DEER-HEALTH project funded by AAGE V JENSEN NATURFOND (grant number: 2021-0122). Data contains serum chemistry and parasite data sampled in 21 red deer and 20 fallow deer in Denmark. Data are the basis for a scientific publication entitled: Estimating parasite-condition relationships and potential health effects for fallow deer (Dama dama) and red deer (Cervus elaphus) in Denmark written by Floris M. van Beest*, Heidi H.

Green Technology Practices and Local Well-Being: Inspiring Insights From a Brazilian Case Study
No full textGood governance e partecipazione nella pianificazione locale: la valutazione del processo di redazione del PUC di Tertenia e il ruolo della VAS
No full textLo studio che si propone è stato realizzato al fine di
individuare all’interno del processo di pianificazione,
a scala locale, i principi fondanti il concetto di good
governance. Questa si configura come un processo
estremamente complesso al quale la partecipazione
conferisce un carattere inclusivo, in quanto portatrice
di conoscenze ed interessi diversificati. Ciascun
attore, per differente natura e competenza, apporta il
proprio contributo rendendo il processo incrementale.
Nel saggio viene esaminato il Piano urbanistico
comunale (PUC) di Tertenia, dove fin dalle prime fasi
di redazione, la partecipazione ha assunto un ruolo
fondamentale. In un contesto in cui il fenomeno
dell’abusivismo edilizio ha profondamente segnato
il sistema territoriale e sociale, il piano si pone come
chiave di lettura di proposte e di decisioni, di obiettivi
e di azioni da realizzare, che orientano scenari di
sviluppo auspicabili e condivisi
Inspired by the Soul of Savannah: Spotlight on Entrepreneurship Orientation in Family Firms
No full textUnveiling the Path to Success: An Exploratory Study on Migrant Women Entrepreneurs
No full textPurpose. Building on the theoretical embeddedness construct, this study stresses the joint role that contextual and individual factors play in successful migrant women entrepreneurship, uncovering which factors can sustain migrant women entrepreneurship.
Design/methodology/approach. This paper conducts a multi-case study of a sample of 4 successful migrant women entrepreneurs.
Findings. Results show that when the context denotes resistance towards migrant women entrepreneurs, soft skills, especially “self-esteem” and “self-efficacy” can balance the negative effect of context. This mismatch between personal expectations and received stimulus from context produces a cognitive response that follows an individual perspective based on “self-investment”. Meanwhile, when the context is perceived as favorable to migrant women’s entrepreneurship development, individual factors seem to amplify the contextual factors, creating a centrifugal reaction. In this case, personal expectations and received stimuli from the context match and generate a cognitive response that follows a business perspective based on conceiving firm development strategies.
Practical and Social Implications. Findings can help migrant women entrepreneurs and practitioners (consultants and other entrepreneurs) identify the main factors that can sustain or inhibit entrepreneurial behaviors by anticipating possible concerns and issues and, above all, trying to remove potential context barriers. Moreover, findings also call into action policymakers to promote ad hoc entrepreneurship education programs to strengthen the individual level and contrast possible adverse effects due to hostile contexts.
Originality of the study. Previous studies have investigated the context and the individual levels separately, while this study argues that the two levels coexist and deserve to be jointly analyzed. Additionally, this study focuses on successful migrant women entrepreneurs, considered enlightening because they are embedded in multiple contexts: the country of origin and the host country. By uncovering how they perceive the context (friendly vs. hostile), results show different cognitive responses to overcome difficulties and achieve success
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
