Lietuvių emigracijos tema žiniasklaidoje: dienotvarkės nustatymo požiūris / Lithuanian emigration issue in the media: agenda setting approachSteponavičiūtė, Birutė 25 June 2014 (has links)
Baigiamojo magistro darbo objektas – emigracijos tema Lietuvos žiniasklaidoje bei politniuose pranešimuose. Semestrinio darbo tikslas – nustatyti emigracijos temos atskleidimą žiniasklaidoje dienotvarkės nustatymo požiūriu. Darbo uždaviniai: aptarti emigracijos reiškinį Lietuvoje ikisovietiniu laikotarpiu ir po 1990 m. Nepriklausomybės atkūrimo iki 2010 m.; nurodyti pagrindinius dienotvarkės nustatymo teorijos teiginius; apžvelgti tyrimus, taikančius dienotvarkės nustatymo teoriją emigracijos temos kontekste; aptarti emigracijos temą pasaulio ir Lietuvos žiniasklaidoje; atlikti emigracijos temos Lietuvos žiniasklaidoje turinio analizę; atlikti emigracijos temos politiniuose tekstuose turinio analizę. Analizuojant, sisteminant bei apibendrinant mokslinę literatūrą, prieita prie išvadų, jog emigracija moksliniuose šaltiniuose dažnai apibūdinama kaip lietuvių tautos bruožas, o patys lietuviai – diasporos tauta. Ikisovietinių laikotarpių emigracijos mastai, priežastys nėra itin plačiai nagrinėtos, o apie pasėkmes apskritai nėra kalbama. Tyrimas atskleidė, jog emigracijos temos dinamika politinėje ir žiniasklaidos dienotvarkėse sutampa. Dienotvarkės nustatymo požiūriu, emigracija Lietuvos žiniasklaidoje nagrinėjama atsižvelgiant i politinę dienotvarkę. Išryškėjo dienotvarkės nustatymo ypatumai spausdintinės žiniasklaidos atveju - kuo mažiau apie emigraciją kalbėjo politikai, tuo daugiau straipsnių šia tema buvo spausdinama, tačiau kai politiniai šaltiniai imti cituoti dažniau...

The aim of the terminal - the theme of emigration disclosure in the media agenda setting approach. Job tasks: to discuss the phenomenon of emigration during the pre-Soviet Lithuania, and after 1990 Restoration of Independence until 2010; the main agenda setting theory arguments, to review studies using the theory of agenda setting, theme in the context of immigration, emigration to discuss the topic in the media world and Lithuanian, a Lithuanian theme of emigration in the media content analysis of the themes of emigration for political content analysis of texts. Analyzing, systematizing and summarizing the scientific literature and came to the conclusion that the emigration of scientific sources, is often described as a feature of the Lithuanian people, and most Lithuanians - Diaspora people. Pre-Soviet periods, the magnitude of emigration, the reasons are not very well considered, and the consequences of not being spoken. Today Lithuanian emigration is nothing new or unexpected event. Scientific and journalistic sources often associated with globalization is defined as a dynamic process, but solid and consistent research on this topic, however, missing. Following the work of the scientific research analysis showed that the political forces, through agenda-setting mechanisms, is able to reach the public and influence their opinion so that it would be advantageous or disadvantageous to a...

Playing for the same team? : the trio Presidency and agenda-management in European Union sport policyde Wolff, Mads January 2016 (has links)
In 2007 the rotating Presidency of the Council of the European Union (EU) was reformed by the introduction of the so-called trio Presidency . The trio mechanism encourages policy continuity by grouping incumbent Presidencies in teams of three and inviting them to coordinate. This thesis seeks to contribute original knowledge on EU policy-making by mapping how trio practices are established, exploring which factors explain how Member States coordinate, and by assessing how the trio arrangement affects the EU agenda. Empirically, the trio function is examined through its implementation in the policy area of sport, focusing on the three trios to assume office after the coming into force of the Lisbon Treaty in 2009. The analysis is structured around a number of carefully selected dossiers adopted between 2010 and 2013. Guided by a conceptual framework based on agenda-setting and new institutionalism, these decisions are submitted to in depth process-tracing. The analysis draws on qualitative research, primarily official documents and 37 semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that actors approach the trio with differing preferences and expectations, leading to much variation in how the arrangement is performed. The thesis identifies a number of factors that explain variation. Thus, a fixed agenda supports trios in coordinating priorities and activities ex ante. Moreover, coordination is conditioned by trio composition, as federal and new Member States are more inclined to cooperate. Further, trio practices are shaped by factors such as multiannual planning and focusing events, with the intenseness of trio coordination reflecting whether the agenda includes issues that demand sustained attention. The thesis concludes that the introduction of the trio mechanism has preserved the ability of Member States to use the Council Presidency to prioritise national priorities whilst also encouraging and facilitating EU policy continuity. By extending agenda-management beyond a six month spell, the trio can strengthen the agenda-setting powers of incumbent Member States, particularly on issues that concern establishing urgent responses or developing Council procedures. Moreover, evidence suggests that the arrangement can produce a specific spirit of collegiality, trio solidarity, which sees trio Member States support each other during negotiations, thus affecting EU policy-making beyond agenda-management.

Policy agenda-setting and the use of analytical agenda-setting models for school sport and physical education in South AfricaDesai, Anver January 2011 (has links)
This study focused on policy agenda-setting models for school sport and physical education in South Africa. The primary objective was to assess and propose options for improved agenda-setting by focussing on the use of agenda-setting models and by applying it to physical education and school sport and the policy agenda of the national government. The study has shown that pertinent school sport and physical education policy issues, as supported by key role-players and principal actors, were initially not placed on the formal policy agenda of government during the research investigation period (2005-2009). However, during 2010 and 2011 the issue of school sport and physical education received prominent attention by authorities and these developments were subsequently included in the study. The study aimed at contributing to existing policy agenda-setting models and by recommending changes to the Generic Process Model.The study also made a contribution by informing various role-players and stakeholders in education and school sport on the opportunities in policy agenda-setting. The study showed that policy agenda-setting is a vital step in the Generic Policy Process Model. Policy agendasetting in South Africa is critical, as it is important to place new and emerging policy issues on the policy agenda and as a participative public policy process is relatively new in this young democracy. The reader should not confuse the study as one dealing with school sport and physical education primarily, but rather as a research investigation dealing with policy agenda-setting models as applied to school sport and physical education.The secondary objectives of the study included the development of a historical perspective on trends and tendencies in education and sport in South Africa. A second objective was to provide theoretical perspectives on public policy and specifically on policy agenda-setting. From these theoretical perspectives, the Generic Policy Process Model was selected to use as a model that provided guidance on the overall policy process normally followed in South Africa. The Issue Attention Cycle and Principal Actor Models on Agenda-Setting were selected to apply to the case study to specifically ascertain important factors related to policy agenda-setting such as the identification of key role players as well as key policy issues. The Generic Policy Process Model provided for both a comprehensive set of phases as well as specific requirements and key issues to be addressed during each phase of the policy process.In terms of findings the study found that a number of specific agenda-setting elements or phases needed to be added to the Generic Policy Process Model, which includes a problem stage, triggers, initiator, issue creation and actors or policy stakeholders.The Principal Actor Model to agenda-setting was selected for application to the case as different actors have different levels of success at each policy stage. In the South African experience it is important to look at who sets the policy agenda and why, who can initiate agenda-setting and the role played by these principal actors in the agenda-setting process.Issue emergence often places policy issues on the policy agenda. The public is initially involved in issues, but in the long term public interest declines. The government realizes the significant costs involved in placing policy issues back on the agenda. This leads to a decline in issue attention by policy-makers and the public. The Issue Attention Cycle Model of
agenda setting was used to analyse this phenomenon in South African Education policy.The study provides a case assessment of the South African experience. From the research findings, a set of conclusions and recommendations were developed for improved policy agenda-setting models and implications for school sport and physical education, as well as tools to place it on the national policy agenda were identified. The research findings suggest that pertinent school sport and physical education policy issues, as supported by key roleplayers,stakeholders and principal actors were not placed on the formal policy agenda of the government as a vital step in the policy process between 2005 and 2009. Ever since, principal policy actors, civil society NGOs, and government officials placed sufficient pressure on the Minister of Basic Education to place Physical Education on the agenda. Subsequently,Minister Angie Motshega has placed physical education in the school Curriculum under the subject Life Orientation and Lifeskills. It has become evident from the research that agendasetting is both necessary to, and a complex phase in, the policy-making process.This study has shown that major policy issues such as physical education and school sport were neglected during the period 2005 and 2009 despite reformed and advanced policy cycles in government. It has also shown that the role of policy agenda-setting in the overall policymaking
process was revisited by government in the subsequent period 2010/2011 and placed on the policy agenda. Specific lessons of experience emanated from this process.The study recommends that the triggers of the agenda-setting phases be added to the Generic Policy Process Model, which should include the problem stage, triggers, initiators, issue creation, actors and policy stakeholders. Principal actors in the agenda-setting model in South Africa want the issue of physical education and school sport to be part of the school curriculum, and therefore be placed back on the policy agenda by the Government on its institutional agenda. Furthermore, the study showed that actors wanted it to be compulsory in all phases of the school (Foundation, Intermediate, Senior, GET, FET) and that it should have the same legal status as other subjects.The important findings include that: Comprehensive policy process models such as that of Dunn, Wissink and the Generic Process model may need to be reviewed to incorporate more fully the policy-agenda
setting stages of the overall process; Current policy agenda setting models in use are relevant and valuable in identifying key role players as well as key issues and considerations regarding the policy process; Institutional arrangements to strengthen the role of NGOs and lower level institutions,such as schools to participate in policy agenda setting are important; and the study has shown that a number of key factors have been identified that had a key influence on policy agenda-setting in the case of physical education and school sport in South Africa. These included the influence of changing political leadership, the competency of policy capacities in government, the profile of issues in the media etc. The key findings of the study have shown that further potential exists to improve
monitoring and evaluation and policy analysis.The study made a set of recommendations to principal actors such as the Minister of Education, Minister of Sport and Recreation, non-governmental organisations, interest groups,department officials and pressure groups. A set of research topics was also identified
for future research. / Philosophiae Doctor - PhD

Previous issue date: 2015-11-23 / Tourism has grown quite worldwide and being framed increasingly in economic perspective, the results it provides. From this perspective, the performance of their destiny is now assessed with the same parameter of other market activities: competitiveness. In Brazil, to attend the National Tourism Plan goal to develop 65 tourist destinations in order to leave them in a position to compete internationally, the Getúlio Vargas Foundation, the Ministry of Tourism and the National Support Service for Micro and Small Business conducted a diagnosis of its competitiveness. The results, pointing out the necessary actions are described in the 'Competitiveness Study 65 destinations inducers Development of Regional Tourism.' The objective of this work is to verify that the results of this study, given the deadline set in the Plan for the structuring of destinations, influenced the agenda of the Ministry of Tourism, in terms of creating specific aspects of programs to reach the planned purposes. To do so, a documentary research was made, through which it was shown that the problems detected in the study were not considered priority, remaining at the level of the other country's problems, not their solution was in line with the actions of the Ministry / O turismo vem crescendo bastante em todo mundo e sendo enquadrado, cada vez mais, na perspectiva econômica, pelos resultados que proporciona. Nesse contexto, o desempenho de seus destinos passou a ser avaliado com o mesmo parâmetro de outras atividades do mercado: a competitividade. No Brasil, para atender à meta do Plano Nacional de Turismo de estruturar 65 destinos turísticos, de modo a deixá-los em condições de competir internacionalmente, a Fundação Getúlio Vargas, o Ministério do Turismo e o Serviço Nacional de Apoio às Micro e Pequenas Empresas realizaram um diagnóstico de seus níveis de competitividade. Os resultados, apontando as ações necessárias, encontram-se descritos no 'Estudo de Competitividade de 65 Destinos Indutores do Desenvolvimento do Turismo Regional'. O objetivo deste trabalho é verificar se os resultados desse Estudo, dado o prazo estabelecido no Plano para estruturação dos destinos, influenciaram a agenda do Ministério do Turismo, em termos de criação de vertentes específicas de programas para alcance das finalidades previstas. Para tanto, foi feita uma pesquisa documental, por meio da qual se comprovou que os problemas detectados no Estudo não foram considerados prioridade, permanecendo no patamar dos demais problemas do país, nem sua solução foi alinhada às ações do Ministério.

Industry and policy implementation of material efficiencyCooper-Searle, Simone January 2018 (has links)
The UK has committed to deep, long-term reductions in national greenhouse gas emissions as part of a global effort to address climate change. Material efficiency, reducing the material inputs per service output, has long been identified as a globally underexplored mitigation strategy. Previous studies show unrealised technical potential to improve the efficiency of steel use, a large contributor of industry emissions, in the UK. This thesis explores why these opportunities may be unrealised along the steel supply chain.

Jak se (ne)dělá autonomie: činnost Hnutí autonomie Slezska na půdě polského parlamentu / (Not)Making Autonomy: Activities of Silesian Autonomy Movement on the Platform of the Polish ParliamentHamatová, Kateřina January 2015 (has links)
This diploma thesis focuses on activities of the Silesian Autonomy Movement (RAŚ) on the platform on the Polish Parliament, while using theoretical concepts advocacy coalition and agenda setting. In the first part of my thesis, I will define goals of RAŚ and identify three most important ones, which will create the core of my research: Silesian language statute, minority statute of Silesians and problem of Upper Silesian autonomy. Then, I will define political subsystems, which reflect the three already mentioned main topics. Within each political subsystem, I will define two competing advocacy coalitions. In the next chapter I will analyse respective political subsystems and discussions, which is taking place among competing advocacy coalitions. I will stress the importance on the process of policy agenda setting. As a parameter of success I will seek for the existence of legislative proposals, proposed by advocacy coalitions. Then, I will analyse processes within respective political subsystems since 2005. In the final part of my thesis, I will strive to answer my research questions and compare the results with my hypotheses. Thanks to my research, I will be able to better understand activities of RAŚ, and of advocacy coalitions respectively, on national level.
