Olympic social responsibility : a challenge for the future

Social responsibility, especially in the fields of education, society and peace, is one of the cornerstones of the olympic ideal and strategic vision (contribute to building a better world through sport). The article reviews the literature on organizational social responsibility (OSR) and the relationship between sport/olympism and OSR in order to examine the conditions governing the implementation and success of the International Olympic Committee's strategic vision. Several ways in which the IOC could promote a more ambitious and better-integrated social strategy: revise its performance model, notably evaluate and present in a social responsibility report; promote the adoption of OSR initiatives and strategies within the Olympic System from the bottom-up, rather than from the top-down; share best practices in the different countries for promoting and developing "sport for all"; create a World Agency for Development through Sport, or partnering and funding the international platform on sport and development; creating a World Agency for the International Governance of Sport. Two possible scenarios for the future of Olympic responsibility are finally discussed: strategy of "small steps" and a more ambitious local and global social strategy through sport and olympism

Assesing the frequency and clauses of out-of-stock events through store scanner data

This paper aims to provide an answer to the question of out-of-stock events (OOS), their frequency, the sales losses they generate, and their causes. The authors provide two contributions. They describe a new sales-based measure of OOS computed on the basis of store-level scanner data and identify several of the main determinants of OOS. They also introduce a significant distinction between complete and partial OOSout-of-stock events; store-level scanner data; assortment; retailing; marketing metrics

Investigación colaborativa en las ciencias sociales argentinas : el caso de la producción académica de cientistas sociales repatriados

Los procesos de cooperación e investigación colaborativa, con sus contradicciones y potencialidades, se tornan vitales en la producción y validación actual del conocimiento científico y tecnológico. Son los agentes académicos quienes a partir de su circulación internacional, entre otros medios, generan trabajos en co-autoría, instalan temas de investigación, generan nuevas líneas de abordajes y conforman grupos internacionales de investigación, entre otras estrategias. De manera particular, en este trabajo se mostrará un primer acercamiento a las múltiples formas que adquiere la investigación colaborativa y la internacionalización de las prácticas científicas en ciencias sociales, focalizando en la producción académica de cientistas sociales argentinos repatriados a partir de una política pública: el Programa RAICES.Fil: Bayle, Paola Adriana .
