    Diplomová práce "Režijní tvorba Jana Mikuláška" se zabývá jedním z nejvýraznějších současných českých divadelních režisérů. Autorka se snaží přiblížit osobnost a tvorbu Jana Mikuláška prostřednictvím analyzování jeho režijních postupů u konkrétních inscenací, které měla možnost vidět. Navazuje na svou bakalářskou práci nazvanou "Spolupráce režie a scénografie: J. Mikuláška a M. Cpina", kde analyzovala Mikuláškovy režijní postupy především v inscenaci Heda Gablerová. Výčet Mikuláškových inscenací je bohatý, proto si pro své analyzování zvolila konkrétní úsek z jeho tvorby, který mj. porovnává s tvorbou předchozí. Podrobně se věnuje inscenacím Europeana, Nenápadný půvab buržoazie, Šedá sedmdesátá aneb Husákovo ticho a především pak inscenaci Hodní chlapci, na které se autorka dramaturgicky podílela.The thesis "Jan Mikulášek and his directing" deals with one of the most outstanding contemporary Czech theater directors.

    Does strict employment protection discourage job creation? Evidence from Croatia

    Full text link
    Employment protection legislation in Croatia is among the most strict in Europe. Firing is difficult and costly, and flexible forms of employment are limited. Is this apparent rigidity reflected-as one would expect based on standard economic theory-in low labor market dynamics? Is job creation low and hiring limited? Is the job security of insiders achieved at the cost of outsiders not being able to enter thelabor market? The author attempts to answer these questions by examining job flows. If the employment protection legislation is binding, then job and worker turnover should be low. He shows that this is indeed the case. Hiring is limited and the average job tenure is very long in Croatia. Job destruction is low, however job creation is still lower. The result is accumulation of unemployment, in large part due to new labor market entrants not being able to find a job. The high degree of job protection also seems to strengthen the bargaining position of insiders and results in relatively high wages. So, wages in Croatia are higher than among its competitors, even after adjusting for productivity. These high labor costs are likely to contribute to limited job creation in existing firms, but also are likely to discourage the entry of-and thus job creation in-new firms. The author presents evidence that firm growth has been indeed limited in Croatia, contributing to the low employment level. The author examines other potential causes of high unemployment in Croatia (the unemployment benefit system, labor taxation, the wage structure, and skill and spatial mismatches). He argues that they do not play a substantial part in accounting for poor labor market outcomes in Croatia. The author concludes that the stringent employment protection legislation is the key labor market institution behind low job creation and high unemployment. Based on this he recommends specific measures aimed at liberalizing the labor market to foster job creation and employment.Labor Management and Relations,Labor Policies,Labor Markets,Environmental Economics&Policies,Trade Finance and Investment,Labor Markets,Labor Management and Relations,Labor Standards,Banks&Banking Reform,Environmental Economics&Policies

    Jan Fabre

    No full text
    Jan Fabre (Antwerp, 1958) is known both at home and abroad as one of the most innovative and versatile artists of his time. In the last 25 years, he has made a name for himself as a performance artist, theatre maker, choreograph, opera maker, film maker, author and creative artist. Each genre he practices, he defines the boundaries. His artistic record has remained contested all these years.Following the open, defining exhibition of his early work at the Muhka and the dialogue of recent and old works at the KMSKA (Royal Museum of Fine Art) at Antwerp in 2006, we bring you Homo Faber, the first ever reference work on all aspects of the creative art of Jan Fabre. This book looks at many powerful ideas and aspects of Fabre's performance art, drawings, sculptures/installations, photographic works and films. Such as his idea of metamorphosis, his use of human bones, or the resonance between his work and that of old masters like Van Eyck, Rubens and De Braeckeleer. Homo Faber covers Fabre's whole artistic career, from the early years when he put himself on display in a shop window, through his performances where he set the audience's money on fire, to the 23 m high outdoor sculpture 'Totem' on the Ladeuzeplein, Louvain.With contributions by Giacinto di Pietrantonio (curator of the book), Bart De Baere and Paul Huvenne, Jan Hoet, Luigi Ficacci, Sebastian Hackenschmidt, Stefan Hertmans, Bart Verschaffel, Lorend Hegyi, Sylvie Ferre, Emil Hrvatin, Emmanuelle Nizou, Thierry Raspail and Johan Swinnen.Also available in Dutch, ISBN 978906153647

    Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers

    Full text link
    In the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
