Regionalism,Reconstitution and Theses for Designing a Strategy for Economic Growth and Development of Slavonia and Baranya

Intensive ageing of population as well as its overall wrong educational orientation send a strong message that economic regression indicates that population and economy are caught in a vicious circle of a crisis, since under such circumstances people aged between 20 and 35 are leaving this region and heading to Zagreb, Istria and, what is modern these days, to Ireland. It is not diffi cult to conclude that such trends of a demographic and economic crisis are mirrored in all other relevant issues and relationships. We should not lose sight of important factors stipulated by such circumstances, such as: first, the economy itself, specifically and traditionally conditioned (agriculture and industry) as well as the war and war consequences, and second, a complete political failure to adapt to new conditions, absence of a growth and development strategy, selection of huge chains of stores as the basis of growth and development of cities, etc. It can also be noticed that all other resources are neglected (as well). Among others, special stress should be place on education, science and the University. Therefore, it is quite obvious that the above mentioned circumstances must be promptly halted based upon new high-quality fundamentals in the community aiming at creating conditions for the policy of regionalism.Regionalism, reconstitution, strategy, economy, education, science, Slavonia and Baranya, Slavonian Parliament.

Poluklasična teorija spontane emisije zračenja

A nonrelativistic semiclassical theory of the radiation reaction interaction is developed. It is applied to the spontaneous emission of radiation from excited states of a hydrogen-like atom.Razvijena je nerelativistička poluklasična teorija radijacijske sile zračenja. Primjenjena je na opis spontane emisije zračenja s pobuđenog stanja atoma poput vodikovog

The role of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-like axis in inflammatory pilosebaceous disorders

Skin is the largest peripheral endocrine organ and functions as a hormone target and endocrine gland. A cutaneous hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-like axis enables the skin to respond to stress and regulates its steroidogenic activity. The pilosebaceous unit is a site for production and metabolism of a number of steroid hormones, including stress and sex hormones. This is an overview of the important role that the cutaneous HPA-like-axis plays in the pathogenesis and treatment of inflammatory pilosebaceous disorders, including acne, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and hidradenitis suppurativa

IMPACTS OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT ON ECONOMIC GROWTH IN TRANSITION COUNTRIES

The current global economic crisis raises many questions and the most important imperative is to find solutions and recover the world economy. Neoliberalism as a cause of the crisis has shown fundamental shortcomings and proved that the market is an imperfect self-regulating system. At the present time in the media, politicians and some economists mention foreign direct investment (FDI) as a life-saving solution for economic problems and economic growth. The analysis of the economic indicators proved that FDI cannot be, to the necessary extent, a generator of economic growth and that development of each country should be based on endogenous components. The development of critical thinking and questioning of the neoliberal concept, especially with today\u27s time distance through comparisons of indicators such as economic growth, absence of inflation, employment and the export-import ratio, has revealed major systemic defects of the market fundamentalist policies. A strong indicator and argument to this thesis is particularly evident in the industrial production indexes, in the number of industrial workers and in the share of industry in GDP of transition countries

N-gram Overlap in Automatic Detection of Document Derivation

Establishing authenticity and independence of documents in relation to others is not a new problem, but in the era of hyper production of e-text it certainly gained even more importance. There is an increased need for automatic methods for determining originality of documents in a digital environment. The method of n-gram overlap is only one of several methods proposed by the literature and is used in a variety of systems for automatic identification of text reuse. Although the aforementioned method is quite trivial, determining the length of n-grams that would be a good indicator of text reuse is a somewhat complex issue. We assume that the optimal length of n-grams is not the same for all languages but that it depends on the particular language properties such as morphological typology, syntactic features, etc. The aim of this study is to find the optimal length of n-grams to be used for determining document derivation in Croatian language. Among the potential areas of implementation of the results of this study, we could point out automatic detection of plagiarism in academic and student papers, citation analysis, information flow tracking and event detection in on-line texts
