    Tematika diplomskog rada se bavi Turizmom Istarske županije. Turizam je pojava nezaobilaznog kulturnog kontakta koja ima svoje pozitivne i negativne posljedice. Intenzivniji razvoj turizma u Istri počinje nakon Drugog svjetskog rata. Od tada do danas istarski turizam je prošao mnogobrojne razvojne faze te su se razvile mnoge vrste turizma, a sam boravak turista je obogaćen različitim sadržajima. Istarska županija ima prirodne predispozicije, ljudske resurse i tradiciju koji ju čine vrlo atraktivnim prostorom, kako za obitavanje, tako i za razvoj i uspješno bavljenje velikim brojem djelatnosti. Povoljan geografski položaj i dobra cestovna povezanost s ostatkom Europe, Istru čine privlačnom i popularnom destinacijom. Istarska županije također obiluje i velikim brojem manifestacija i tradicionalnim događanjima, koja uvelike pridonose očuvanju i valorizaciji kulturne baštine.The topic of the thesis deals with Tourism of the Istrian County. Tourism is a phenomenon of inevitable cultural contact that has its positive and negative consequences. More intensive development of tourism in Istria began after the Second World War. From then until today, Istrian tourism has gone through numerous development stages and many types of tourism have developed, and the tourist's stay itself has been enriched with various contents. The County of Istria has natural predispositions, human resources and traditions that make it a very attractive area, both for living and for developing and successfully engaging in a large number of activities. A favorable geographical location and good road connections with the rest of Europe make Istria an attractive and popular destination. The County of Istria also abounds with a large number of manifestations and traditional events, which greatly contribute to the preservation and valorization of cultural heritage

    Corporate Social Responsibility in the Tourism Sector

    Društveno odgovorno poslovanje (DOP) u sektoru turizma javlja se kao zahtjev društva za održivim razvojem i dugoročnim koristima njegove primjene. Svjedoci smo da u današnjem svijetu samo borba za profitom ne donosi dugoročno blagostanje poduzeća niti društva. Ključ uspjeha leži u primjeni koncepta društveno odgovornog poslovanja koji je usmjeren na poboljšanje uvjeta rada lokalnog stanovništva, smanjenje negativnih utjecaja na gospodarstvo, odnosno ostvarenje profita na društveno odgovoran način. Sam koncept možemo promatrati kroz internu dimenziju koja se odnosi na uspješno upravljanje ljudskim resursima i okolišem, dok je eksterna dimenzija usmjerena na doprinos zajednici, potrošačima/kupcima. Postavlja se pitanje hoće li poduzeća u sektoru turizma biti konkurentnija ako primjenjuju koncept DOP-a? Hoće li biti konkurentnija ako surađuju s lokalnom zajednicom te vode brigu o zaposlenicima i kupcima?Corporate social responsibility in the tourism sector appears as a demand for the society for sustainable development and the long-term benefits of its application. We are witnesses that in today's world solely struggle for profit does not bring the long-term prosperity into the company or society. The key to success lies in the application of the concept of socially responsible business, which is aimed at improving the life conditions of the local population, reducing the negative impacts on the economy, or achieving profit in a socially responsible manner. The concept itself can be seen through the internal dimension of successful management of human resources and the environment, while the external dimension is aimed at contributing to the community, consumers / customers. The question that is being asked is whether the companies in the tourism sector will be more competitive if they apply the CSR concept? Will they be more competitive if they collaborate with the local community and take care of employees and customers

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
