Išorinės komunikacijos svarba stiprinant sporto organizacijos ir jos suinteresuotųjų grupių ryšius: Kauno tinklinio mėgėjų lygos atvejis
No full textIn order to get closer to the fans, to gain more public attention, and to increase the popularity of the sport, sports organisations inevitably have to focus on external communication. Increased visibility often leads to a wider range of financial supporters, while increased funding also allows the sport organisation itself to grow. Kaunas Amateur Volleyball League (KAVL), as an active sports organisation, faces challenges in reaching its audience – both participants and spectators – therefore it is necessary to identify the existing problems in the organisation’s external communication and to identify ways to improve it.The effectiveness of KAVL’s external communication on the League’s Facebook account and website was analysed by means of quantitative and qualitative content analysis and a questionnaire survey. The analysis showed that KAVL provides a lot of detailed information about the upcoming events as well as results, publishes a high amount of news, keeps the information up-to-date, but the posts are irregular, with numerous errors and low user engagement. The website was found to be rich in information, but its design is outdated and unattractive.The article concludes that KAVL needs to pay more attention to the quality of the presentation of information and the interaction on social networks with the followers and fans. Also, the lack of a content calendar results in inconsistent communication within KAVL. A posting schedule would allow for a systematic planning of when and which posts to publish, and an update of the website would also contribute to improving the overall image of the League and would help to attract a larger audience of fans.Siekdamos priartėti prie gerbėjų, gauti daugiau visuomenės dėmesio ir didinti sporto šakos masiškumą, sporto organizacijos neišvengiamai turi skirti daug dėmesio išorinei komunikacijai. Didesnis matomumas neretai lemia platesnį finansinių rėmėjų ratą, o didesnis finansavimas sporto organizacijai leidžia stiprėti. Kauno tinklinio mėgėjų lyga (KTML), kaip aktyvi sporto organizacija, susiduria su iššūkiais pasiekti savo auditoriją – tiek dalyvius, tiek žiūrovus, todėl būtina nustatyti organizacijos išorinės komunikacijos problemas ir šios komunikacijos tobulinimo būdus.Pasitelkus komunikacijos kanalų turinio kiekybinės ir kokybinės analizės metodus ir atlikus anketinę apklausą, analizuotas KTML išorinės komunikacijos veiksmingumas lygos paskyroje socialiniame tinkle „Facebook“ ir interneto svetainėje. Analizė atskleidė, kad KTML pateikia daug išsamios informacijos apie būsimus renginius, rezultatus, skelbia daug naujienų, informacija nuolat atnaujinama, tačiau įrašai keliami nereguliariai, juose daroma nemažai klaidų, vartotojų įsitraukimas mažas. Svetainėje daug informacijos, tačiau jos dizainas pasenęs ir nepatrauklus.Straipsnyje konstatuojama, kad KTML būtina skirti daugiau dėmesio informacijos pateikimo kokybei, bendravimui socialiniuose tinkluose su žiūrovais ir gerbėjais. KTML komunikacija nenuosekli, nes nėra turinio kalendoriaus. Įrašų grafikas leistų sistemingai planuoti, kada ir kokius įrašus publikuoti, o svetainės atnaujinimas prisidėtų ir prie bendrojo lygos įvaizdžio gerinimo, leistų pritraukti gausesnę gerbėjų auditoriją

Protection of public interest in civil procedure.
No full textProtection of Public Interest in Civil Procedure Protection of public interest is the procedure which safeguards the most significant public value. Even though there might be an impression that this doctrine has been widely discussed and as a result it may lack scientific sensitivity, the author does not agree with that. The significance and characteristics of public interest are challenges themselves and as a consequence, they determine the importance of continuous investigation in the field of public interest. Legal regulation changes, inconsistency of judicial practice and lack of systematic analysis of specific doctrines are of great importance for this investigation and reveal a wide range of research problems. However, the most important aspect of this research is that the author does not limit himself only to the field of the usual public interest research (for example, the doctrine of public interest or the concept of public interest). On the contrary, the author chooses new directions meanwhile paying attention to the important issues that previously have not been analysed. As a result, the problem of justifying the efficiency, the prosecutor's supervisory role and the legal basis of the state and municipalities are the areas that demonstrate the uniqueness of this very research. On the other hand, the researcher is not only a passive observer. After analysing scientific positions, the author looks for new arguments in order to deny or support the theories and discuss and justify his own position. Finally, the researcher comes to the conclusions that allow one to decide on: 1) the prevailing concept of the shared values in Lithuania and the possible duality of the concepts; 2) the criterion on the justification of the public interest; 3) the approval of prosecutor´s supervisory role; 4) the duties of the state and municipalities; 5) the groundlessness of the court, as an entity, protecting the public interest; and other aspects important for the protection of public interest in civil proceedings
Mažai žinomas Klaipėdos ir apylinkių piešinys 1586 m. jūrlapyje | A Sketch of Klaipėda (Memel) and the Surrounding Area in an Unknown Author’s Rutter of 1586
No full textBy digitising and publicising their exhibits, European archives, libraries and museums are opening up an increasing number of historical sources to a wider audience. This publication deals with a late 16th-century manuscript rutter (a nautical book of sailing directions), created by an unknown Dutch cartographer, and bearing the French title Recveil et povrtraict d’avlcvnes villes maritimes et plvs memorables ports et levrs advenves et marcques servantes a la navigation en la mer oceane. The manuscript is held by the National Library of Spain (Biblioteca Nacional de España) and was thoroughly described by Günter Schilder in 1991. This presentation focuses on two charts out of 24 charts depicting coastlines from La Rochelle to Tallinn in the manuscript that depict the waterways along the shores of the Baltic Sea, the coasts of the Duchy of Courland and Semigallia and the Duchy of Prussia, in a stretch between Memel (Klaipėda) and Danzig (Gdańsk). The drawings show coastlines seen from the sea, as if from a bird’s-eye view, and provide an opportunity to reflect on a view of this stretch of Baltic coast that sailors saw at the time. According to collected data on the depth of the water in the Curonian Lagoon, the author concludes that the drawings present reliable information, probably because they were created based on information provided by sailors. However, the precision of the information is apparently not absolute, as the site 7 Berge (Seven hills), shown between Liepāja and Klaipėda by later sources, was localised here between Ventspils and Liepāja. The charts are also interesting in that they contain a drawing of the town and castle of Memel (Klaipėda) and its surroundings, which was so far not known in the historiography of Klaipėda. It is safe to assume that the 1586 drawings are some of the earliest cartographic sources representing Klaipėda and its surroundings

Company groups: european model company act (emca) and lithuanian context.
No full textCompany groups: European Model Company Act (EMCA) and Lithuanian Context In September 2015, after more than 8 years of drafting, the European Model Company Act (hereinafter referred to as the EMCA), which seeks to harmonise company law in Europe, was introduced. Provisions of Chapter 15 of said Act are intended to regulate company groups. Only fragments of the company group regulation are set in Lithuania. Such legal uncertainty and indeterminacy give rise to a number of issues: more complex company group management, lack of properly ensured interests of minority shareholders and creditors of a company group. In order to solve the aforementioned issues relating to lack of company group regulation, this Master’s thesis seeks to evaluate the possibility for implementation of the EMCA provisions regulating activity of company groups within the Lithuanian context. For this purpose, the Master’s thesis is divided into three parts. The first part analyses issues relating to lack of company group regulation and evaluates whether company groups are perceived in the same way within both the EMCA context and the Lithuanian context. The second part delves into company group management issues and analyses the respective EMCA sections that are intended to harmonise management within company groups. For instance, a great deal of attention is paid to analysis of the recognition of the interest of the group and the right of a parent company to give instructions to the management of a subsidiary. The third part deals with issues of protection of shareholders and creditors of a company group and analyses the EMCA provisions that are designed to improve the condition of shareholders and creditors of a company group, such as the right to sell-out and the wrongful trading doctrine. In the research analysis, the author also presents his position on the lack of company group regulation in Lithuania and discusses the possibilities to implement the respective provisions of Article 15 of the EMCA into the national legislation
The Conceptualization of Lithuanian Authors as a ,,Trademark”.
No full textAs all commodities, books have their identification codes. Users identify books according to author, name, publishing house, typography, etc. These things in the book market are conceptualized as trademarks. This research concerns certain author, whose name can work as a strong motive in choosing a book to buy, as a trademark. In this work the term trademark is being understood as full range of associations that appear in the buyers mind when he/she sees or encounters an item, service or certain name, i. E. author’s name. When this element of a book overshadows the design of the book, the typography, publishing house or even the price of the book, i.e. determines the decision of the reader, it should be admitted that the author has already became a “trade mark”. The object of the research is supposed to help to answer the above mentioned questions. So the object of the recent work is the authors of the modern fiction whose creative output is the steady number of novels. The chosen authors are divided into two groups. The authors that will be considered to be trade marks are the following: Jurga Ivanauskaitė, Renata Šerelytė, Sigitas Parulskis, Juozas Erlickas (belonging to the first group) bei Edmundas Malūkas ir Edvinas Kalėda (belonging to the second group). The research formulates the hypothesis that for the meantime the only one real and thus the strongest “trademark” in the Lithuanian publishing market is the author Jurga Ivanauskaitė, therefore the analysis of her name as a trademark will be given the most attention. Other chosen authors are quite well known, readable, observable by critics or profitable, but conceptualizing them as trademarks is too venturesome. However, they have all possibilities to become such. The aim of this work is to confirm or deny the raised hypothesis (to prove that Lithuanian publishing market has encountered or has formed more trade marks). The tasks of this work are as follows: to define the means of the identification of a commodity by analyzing the concept of the trademark, to analyze the significance of the trademark in the book market, to form the potential scheme that could work as an example of creating the author’s trademark in the book market and that could help to analyze how authors become conceptualized as trademarks in Lithuanian book market (what means of approaching the user are employed and what are not turned to account). The method of this research: the analysis of statistical data (the published, reprinted, translated editions of certain pieces of fiction) and scientific literature. The research enables to draw a conclusion that the hypothesis has been proved, i.e. Jurga Ivanauskaitė for the meantime is the only Lithuanian author whose name can be conceptualized as a “trademark”. The works of Jurga Ivanauskaitė are being purchased steadily and prosperously despite of the genre of the book. The readers usually choose the authors name not the theme of her works. The name of this author is undoubtedly strong and definite trademark in the Lithuanian book market. Other authors that were chosen as the object of the research (Renata Šerelytė, Juozas Erlickas, Sigitas Parulskis, Edmundas Malūkas, Edvinas Kalėda), may be identified as famous and best-selling, but they cannot yet be conceptualized as trademarks
