UNVEILING IRELAND'S ECONOMIC GROWTH BLUEPRINT: DOES THE CELTIC TIGER MODEL STILL INSPIRE US?

In the past few generations, the examination of the intricate relationship between economic growth and tourism development has been of paramount importance for emerging nations. Within Western Europe, Ireland's extraordinary ascent has emerged as a valuable lesson for other emerging and belatedly developing countries, regions, and even major cities. The compelling narrative of the 'Celtic Tiger' from the mid-1980s to the late 2000s has garnered significant interest from scholars and policymakers intrigued by the economic development model. However, to date, no study has utilized Ireland's economic boom as a case study for another emerging nation or region. This research gap has sparked our curiosity: Can the Celtic Tiger model still offer inspiration in 2024? As a result, our paper's principal objective is to integrate Ireland's economic growth model, specifically between 1985 and 1999, with the imminent government investments in the Dakhla Oued Eddahab region in Morocco. In our research, we will examine the ‘Celtic Tiger’ as a case study, underlying the strengths and weaknesses behind its boom and dust. In addition, we will compare Ireland’s attractiveness during the Celtic Tiger era versus Dakhla Oued Eddahab, in the present and future, along with inferring successful management strategies. Our study results are presented in three future policy suggestions, that may help an emerging country avoid the Celtic Tiger collapse risks. In conclusion, we will propose avenues for future research that can contribute to enhancing sustainable Moroccan investments in Dakhla Oued Eddahab, aligning with the principles of long-term environmental, social, and economic sustainability

The Utility of Both Hard and Soft Power in Modern International Relations

This essay's first section defines hard and soft power and how they work together to create soft power. Next, various instances of the two principles' application in the formulation of foreign policy are discussed in order to evaluate their efficacy. There are also instances of the application of smart power in this discussion. According to the article, soft power's durability and longevity make it a more effective and efficient notion in modern global politics. Hard power, however, is becoming less valuable as the world order shifts against it. In the modern international system, smart power tactics are just as significant as soft power tactics. Nye proposed the concept of hard power and soft power distinctions almost twenty years ago. He characterizes command or hard power as coercive power used through inducements or threats, and power as the "ability to affect others to get the outcomes one wants" in general. Hard power depends on concrete power resources like armed troops or financial resources and is based on economic sanctions , forceful diplomacy, and military action. Hard power examples include the German invasion of Poland in 1939 and the UN economic sanctions imposed on Iraq in 1991 after the first Gulf War. Because of all of the above, it is important to analyze the types of power and their effectiveness, what is the impact of soft and hard power in modern international relations, both separately and in tandem

IMPACT OF INTERNAL AUDIT AND WHISTLEBLOWING SYSTEMS FROM FRAUD PROTECTION ON BUMN COMPANYS NUMBERED ON THE INDONESIAN SHIPPING BORSE PERIOD 2021-2023

A study was conducted to explain how the impact of internal audits and whistleblowing on fraud prevention at BUMN is on the EIB list for 2021–2023. The goal of this study is to explain how the variable x influences the population variable y. Population, i.e., 24 BUMNs that are on the BEI list for the period 2021–2023. Using purposive sampling techniques, the author selected 19 BUMN entities that are on the 2021–2023 BEI list. Double linear regression analysis, hypothesis tests (t and F), classical assumption tests, and determination coefficient tests are the methods applied in this study. Based on the results of the tests, it is known that in the period 2021–2023, internal audit factors and whistleblowing systems will both have a significant influence on the prevention of fraud in the EIB registry
