Ripensare il valimiento. Don Luis de Haro nella più recente storiografia
No full textThe article focuses on the figure of Don Luis de Haro, minister-favorite of the King of Spain, Philip IV of Habsburg. Through the analysis of two recent books dedicated to this figure, the author aims to highlight the specific aspects of Haro's government compared to those of the most famous validos of Iberian history, namely the Duke of Lerma and the Count-Duke of Olivares. The central question is therefore whether Don Luis de Haro can be considered a valido to all effects, as were Lerma and Olivares, or rather if he was a favorite and adviser to the King with less extensive and more specific skills and tasks. This could be the result of the Philip IV's will, but also due to the changed political and cultural context in which the Habsburg monarchy found itself operating after the end of the Thirty Years’ War

Czas w badaniach nad internacjonalizacją przedsiębiorstw
No full textBased on literature in the field, the article examines the impact of the time factor on the international experience and level of internationalization of companies. The author seeks to identify the role of time in research on the internationalization of companies. The article is based on a critical analysis of research studies on the internationalization of companies, with a special focus on process models, a network approach to internationalization, and reports on accelerated internationalization. In particular, the author deals with research reports on the time and speed of internationalization. The article presents a number of proposals concerning the role of time in research on the internationalization of companies. These are linked with increased experience in business operations on foreign markets, the speed of internationalization, and the relationship between the time and level of internationalization. The author finds that, in order to better understand the process of internationalization, it is necessary to include the time factor in the theory of internationalization. Ratajczak-Mrozek argues that the relationship between time and an increase in a company’s experience abroad is complex and non-linear. The same is true of the relationship between the time and level of internationalization, the author says. She adds that the level of internationalization should be determined on the basis of comprehensive measurements taking into account resources involved at various levels of a company’s operations. Measurements of the speed of internationalization should take into account the speed of the whole process, and not be limited to the speed of a company’s entry into foreign markets the author argues. This is particularly important for the study of “born global” companies, Ratajczak-Mrozek notes
Proces umiędzynarodowienia a współpraca przedsiębiorstw high-tech z podmiotami zagranicznymi
No full textThe article looks at how Polish high-tech companies cooperate with foreign businesses depending on the advancement of the internationalization process. The author also attempts to suggest the desired course of development at the level of both individual high-tech companies and the economy as a whole. The article pinpoints areas in which support is needed for high-tech companies, with a view to increasing the competitiveness of the country. The article presents the results of a survey carried out in the first half of 2011 among 59 Polish high-tech companies active on foreign markets. The findings are compared with those of other available studies of cooperation, internationalization, and high-tech companies. Any differences in the perception of cooperation with foreign firms (in particular the motives for establishing such ties and the perceived barriers) depend on how long the surveyed high-tech companies have been active abroad. The analysis identifies the specific features of high-tech companies starting their operations abroad in the initial phase of internationalization. These firms usually find it more difficult to develop cooperation with foreign companies, even though they desperately need such ties the author says. Ratajczak-Mrozek goes on to suggest that it is necessary to broaden thinking about cooperation beyond the idea of a cluster-based policy and create a pro-cooperative culture, while underlining the benefits of cooperation demonstrated in the analysis. These benefits include increased market coverage, access to knowledge and know-how, and innovation

Rozważania przeprowadzono wykorzystując krytyczną analizę literatury z zakresu internacjonalizacji przedsiębiorstw koncentrując się na modelach procesowych, podejściu sieciowym do umiędzynarodowienia oraz literaturze z zakresu przyspieszonej internacjonalizacji. W szczególności uwzględniono badania dotyczące czasu i tempa internacjonalizacji przedsiębiorstw. W artykule przedstawiono wiele wniosków dotyczących czasu w badaniach nad internacjonalizacją przedsiębiorstw związanych kolejno z przyrostem doświadczenia w działalności na rynkach zagranicznych, tempem internacjonalizacji oraz związkiem między czasem a poziomem internacjonalizacji przedsiębiorstw. Wskazano, że, aby uzyskać większe zrozumienie procesu internacjonalizacji przedsiębiorstw, niezbędne jest włączenie czasu explicite do teorii umiędzynarodowienia. Wykazano, że zarówno zależność pomiędzy czasem a przyrostem doświadczenia zagranicznego przedsiębiorstw, jak i czasem a poziomem ich umiędzynarodowienia jest kompleksowa i nielinearna. Ponadto w zakresie samego pomiaru istotne jest, aby poziom internacjonalizacji wyznaczać na podstawie miar kompleksowych uwzględniających zasoby zaangażowane na różnych płaszczyznach funkcjonowania firmy. Z kolei badania nad tempem internacjonalizacji powinny uwzględniać zarówno pomiar tempa podjęcia działalności zagranicznej, jak i tempa całego późniejszego procesu umiędzynarodowienia, co ma szczególne znaczenie dla badań nad przedsiębiorstwami born global

ABSTRACT
The aim of this paper is to present the level of knowledge of Tarnobrzeg Cardiology Clinic patients of the risk factors of coronary heart disease. The data required to support the paper’s statement was collected from 100 patients. Diagnostic survey was used as the method. A questionnaire with a set of 22 questions was used as the research tool.
The obtained results show that the level of knowledge is not satisfactory and the patients require further education. It was found that gender is not a factor differentiating the level of knowledge. However, urban residents are better informed than rural residents. It was concluded that the older the patient is the lower level of knowledge of coronary heart disease risk factors he or she possesses. Also, patients with higher education are more knowledgeable.
The research presented in the paper indicates there is an increased need of educating the population on coronary heart disease risk factors, promoting cardiovascular diseases prevention and engaging the medical community in spreading the knowledge

Przedstawiono wyniki badań empirycznych – pocztowego badania ankietowego przeprowadzonego w pierwszej połowie 2011 r. wśród 59 przedsiębiorstw zaawansowanych technologii (zgodnie z podejściem branżowym według klasyfikacji Eurostat) zlokalizowanych w Polsce i prowadzących działalność zagraniczną. Uzyskane wyniki skonfrontowano z innymi dostępnymi badaniami dotyczącymi umiędzynarodowienia, współpracy i przedsiębiorstw high-tech. Zbadano różnice w postrzeganiu kooperacji (w szczególności motywów i barier) z podmiotami zagranicznymi w zależności od tego, jak długo te przedsiębiorstwa prowadzą działalność zagraniczną. Analiza wykazała przede wszystkim wyraźną specyfikę przedsiębiorstw high-tech dopiero rozpoczynających działalność zagraniczną – w fazie początkowej internacjonalizacji. Tym podmiotom trudniej jest rozwijać współpracę z podmiotami zagranicznymi, której jednocześnie bardzo potrzebują. Zasugerowano zarówno konieczność rozszerzenia myślenia o kooperacji poza ideę polityki opartej o klastry, jak i kształtowania kultury pro-kooperacyjnej, podkreślając wykazane w badaniu korzyści wynikające ze współpracy (zwiększenie zasięgu rynkowego, dostęp do wiedzy, know-how i wzrost innowacyjności)

“Commons – Jointly-used Goods: Comparative Aspects of the Use of Water Resources” further develops the theory of governing the dwindling resources, based on Professor Elinor Ostrom’s economic theory of Commons, and expands on it on legal science. The monograph highlights the increased effectiveness of bottom-up norms in preventing the complete depletion of the endangered resources while simultaneously satisfying the needs of the local community, if the public authorities decide to respect them. The legal and functional characteristics of those norms aren’t uniform in different legal traditions, which is shown by examples from various legal systems provided by the author. The author also acknowledges that the issue of property and restricting it in the interests of other people was often mentioned in Roman law, especially in arguments between Roman jurists about water easements. The review describes basic theses and their argumentation contained in the monograph and evaluates its substance, form, and the universal character of the referenced problem
Studium vlivu spin-orbitální interakce v pevných látkách
No full textJedním z důsledků spin-orbitální interakce v pevných látkách je anomální Hallův jev. V této práci popíšeme procesy vedoucí ke vzniku anomálního Hallova jevu a jeho význam ve fyzice pevných látek. Uvedeme formalismus lineární odezvy a další nástroje nutné pro provádění výpočtů anomální Hallovy vodivosti. Dále uvedeme dva konkrétní modely anomálního Hallova jevu v pevných látkách - je- den založený na Kubově formalismu a druhý založený na výpočtu skrze chemický potenciál. Tyto modely si popíšeme a pak je porovnáme pro jednoduchý případ krystalu Sr2RuO4. Ukážeme, že oba modely dávají v tomto případě velmi podobné výsledky. 1One of the effects the spin orbit interaction leads to is the Anomalous Hall effect. In this thesis we describe the origins of the Anomalous Hall effect and its con- tribution to understanding the solid state physics. We introduce the formalism of linear response theory and other approximations needed to perform calcula- tions of the Anomalous Hall conductivity. We present two different models of the anomalous Hall conductivity - one based on the Kubo formalism and the other based on chemical potential difference. We then compare the models in a simple setting based on Strontium ruthenate. We show that in the case of Strontium ruthenate the models have very similar predictions. 1Katedra fyziky kondenzovaných látekDepartment of Condensed Matter PhysicsMatematicko-fyzikální fakultaFaculty of Mathematics and Physic
