    In the enormous collection of cross-cultural data that have been published during the last few decades it is difficult to perceive patterns. There is a clear need for systematizing the vast amount of cross-cultural studies and for developing models that explain cross-cultural differences in psychology. Two methods of cross-cultural meta-analysis can be distinguished. First, the instrument-based method of comparing data for one instrument across countries is suitable for instruments which have been administered in many countries. Second, a domain-based meta-analysis used a thematic domain from which culture-comparative studies are sampled instead of one specific instrument or method

    Work on European spatial planning has led me to criticise what I call territorialism.It conceives of the world in terms of a seamless cover of sovereign stateslooking after its territory each as if it were its property. In the European Unionthough, states are enveloped by a superstructure. Does this mean that there is aEuropean territory and, if so, how does it relate to the territories of its MemberStates? The issue becomes manifest in such efforts, as there have been undertaken,to arrive at a form of European spatial planning.Spatial Planning and Strateg

    Far-Flung Friends Many journeys began on the slopes of Mount St. James, and Holy Cross alumni can be found all over this ever-shrinking planet. What is it that drives these wanderers? Meet nine alums who took the road less traveled. Where did they go? Why did they leave? And what did they learn? By James Dempsey Illustrations by Michael Weldon The V-12 Program While World War II raged, the College faced the wholesale emptying of its classrooms as young men enlisted—or were drafted, into the armed services. Then, in July 1943, Holy Cross became one of 131 institutions across the nation to host a V-12 unit. In turn, the insertion of the military into the life of a quiet Catholic New England college wrought many changes.

Autorka v práci představila základní kulturní rozdíly Česka a Německa. Dále porovnala marketingové aktivity subjektů působících v pohraničí.

    Cross border shopping. Il quadro di riferimento

    No full text
    Il commercio transfrontaliero, noto a livello internazionale come cross border shopping, al confine italiano nordorientale con la Slovenia, ha sempre inciso in modo significativo sul tessuto economico locale. Da tempo era quindi sentita l'esigenza, sia da parte degli operatori commerciali che delle istituzioni, di effettuare una ricerca sul campo. Da queste premesse ha avuto origine il presente studio: l'area di confine italo-slovena presenta infatti delle peculiarità e dei processi evolutivi che vanno analilzzati anche al fine di supportare gli operatori locali nella ricerca di vantaggi competiitivi differenziali e nel miglioramento delle strategie di marketing
