International audience ; There is no clear definition of military expenditure and international comparisons cannot use exchange rates to understand comparative trends in the defence effort of states. Publications by USACDA, SIPRI or IISS highlight the importance of differences in estimates.

Ao longo dos últimos cinco anos, a possibilidade de fusão entre a ZON e a Sonaecom tem sido alvo de especulação proveniente dos média, políticos e ambos os directores das empresas. Esta dissertação consiste num caso prático sobre uma eventual fusão entre estas duas empresas portuguesas do sector de telecomunicações O enquadramento teórico foi definido em relação a este tema, monstrando como as empresas envolvidas serão financeiramente avaliadas, assim como a teoria associada a um processo de fusão. Uma análise detalhada sobre a dinâmica do sector das telecomunicações em Portugal foi realizada (incluindo uma análise histórica e as novas tendências em termos de concorrência, clientes e tecnologia), demonstrando como a situação actual indicia uma boa oportunidade para a consolidação, o que é igualmente suportado pelas últimas mudanças na estrutura de accionistas da ZON e Sonaecom. De forma a avaliar correctamente as empresas envolvidas, foi realizada uma avaliação por múltiplos permitindo uma visão comparativa com empresas do sector na Europa, e posteriormente foi aplicado o método Discounted Cash Flow (mais especificamente o Free Cash Flow to the Firm) para uma análise mais detalhada sobre as duas empresas. Após a avaliação individual das empresas, é verificado que um eventual acordo seria financeiramente recompensador para os accionistas de ambas as empresas, através do cálculo do valor da nova empresa e das sinergias provenientes da operação. Finalmente, é concebido o processo de uma aquisição por Consolidação; a proposta justa por troca de acções é demonstrada, assim como a resultante estrutura de accionistas da empresa criada. ; Over the last five years, a possible deal between Zon and Sonaecom has being target of speculation from the media, opinion makers, politicians and both companies' executives. This research consists in a practical case over an eventual merger between these two Portuguese telecom companies. The theoretical framework was defined regarding this topic, elucidating how both companies would be financial evaluated, as well as the theory behind a merger process appraisal. A detailed analysis over the Portuguese telecom market dynamics was made (including prior and actual trends of the competition, clients and technology); illustrating as the current situation indicates a good opportunity for consolidation, which is also supported by the last events regarding the capital structures of ZON and Sonaecom. In order to properly evaluate the firms involved, it was applied a relative valuation for a comparative analysis over other telecom companies in Europe, and then the Discounted Cash Flow method (more specifically the Free Cash Flow to the Firm) for a more detailed assessment of the enterprises under valuation. After the individual valuation of the firms, it was verified that a possible deal would financially compensate the shareholders of both companies, through the achievement of the hypothetic new firm value and synergies from the operation. Finally, the process of an acquisition by the Consolidation type approach is devised; the fair share exchange proposal is delivered as well as the resulting shareholders' structure of the new created company.

"Academic spin-offs have received increasing attention in discussions about science and innovation policy and in research. Most of the attention has been focused on determining the conditions for fostering spin-offs, but this paper shifts the focus back to the potential repercussions for academic institutions. These may result from the involvement of researchers in spin-off processes and from incentives aimed at supporting spin-off activities. In a first step, the paper develops a conceptual framework with which to analyse repercussions that result from the interaction between policy measures for supporting spin-offs and structural features of national science systems. Policy measures and structural aspects of the science systems influence the ways spin-offs and their parent institutions interact. As patterns of linkages differ, so too may their impacts on academic institutions. Secondly, based on secondary analysis of comparative studies, we develop a number of hypotheses as to which repercussions on academic institutions may be expected in a number of European countries. The paper concludes by proposing implications for policy as well as for further research." (author's abstract)
В статье рассматривается структура современной арктической зоны и протекающие в ней экономические процессы. Целью работы является диагностика существующих подходов к освоению арктических территорий и акваторий в условиях глобализации и усиления внимания к проблемам защиты национальных интересов. В связи с этим основными методами, применяемыми в исследовании, являются системный анализ, контент-анализ и элементы факторного подхода, позволяющие с определенной долей условности структурировать экономические процессы в мировой Арктике. Показано, что глобальные тенденции проявляются здесь в сложном взаимодействии большого числа движущих сил. При этом стратегическое значение имеют минеральные ресурсы, а также пространственно-логистический потенциал мировой Арктики. Проводится сравнительный анализ экономической политики различных стран в формировании и развитии производительных сил в экстремальных условиях хозяйствования. Показано, что и в рыночной экономике государство устанавливает для северных производств различные преференции, фирмы добиваются более низких отчислений по социальному страхованию, в пенсионные фонды и т. п. В канадской модели («освоение без заселения») для повышения заработной платы трудовые отношения освобождаются от некоторых ограничений, налагаемых профсоюзами. В ведущей промышленной сфере недропользовании экономическое регулирование добычи полезных ископаемых связано в основном с формами собственности на недра и системой налогообложения. С точки зрения регионального механизма отмечено, что большинство стран создают компенсационные фонды, рассчитанные на сглаживание негативных последствий, возникающих при истощении и закрытии месторождений. Разработана схема образования таких финансовых институтов для российских арктических территорий, что объективно необходимо по социальным основаниям и вполне оправдано по экономическим. Анализируются современные тенденции в освоении шельфа арктических морей, выявлено, что «санкционная» политика западных стран может повлиять на реализацию соответствующих мегапроектов, но только в среднесрочной перспективе. Обосновано, что при освоении арктического шельфа промышленные комплексы являются высокотехнологическими и наукоемкими объектами, способными быть своеобразными локомотивами инновационной динамики. Определенную новизну имеет вывод о том, что усиливаются региональные факторы и программно-целевые механизмы в освоении арктических пространств, дифференцированные по условиям жизнедеятельности, уровню развития и стоящим задачам. ; The article deals with the structure of the modern Arctic zone and its economic processes. The purpose of the study is to analyze the existing approaches to the development of the Arctic territories and waters in the context of globalization and greater attention to the problems of protection of national interests. In this regard, the main methods used in the study is a systematic analysis, content analysis and elements of the factor approach, which help, with a certain degree of conditionality, to structure the economic processes in the global Arctic. It is shown that global trends are manifested here in the complex interaction of a large number of driving forces. At the same time, mineral resources, as well as space and logistic capacity of the global Arctic are of strategic importance. Comparative analysis of economic policy of the formation and development of productive forces under extreme economic conditions is conducted in various countries. The study demonstrates that in a market economy the state sets different preferences for northern productions; the companies seek for lower premiums for social security, pensions and funds, etc. In the Canadian model ("development without settling"), in order to raise wages, employment relations are freed from certain limitations imposed by trade unions. In the leading industrial sector subsurface management the economic regulation of mineral extraction is to a large extent dependent on the types of ownership of the subsoil and the taxation system. From the perspective of the regional mechanism, it has been noted that most countries establish compensation funds designed to offset the negative effects resulting from deposit exhaustion and closure. The scheme of the formation of such financial institutions for the Russian Arctic territories has been developed, which is economically justified and objectively necessary on social grounds. The study analyzes the current trends in the development of the Shelf of Arctic Seas, and reveals that "the sanctions" policy of the Western countries may influence the implementation of the respective mega-projects, but only in the medium term. It has been justified that amid the development of the Arctic Shelf industrial complexes are high-tech and science-based facilities able to be drivers of innovation dynamics at the national level. The conclusion that enhanced regional factors and program-target mechanisms in the development of the Arctic territories differentiated by living conditions, development level and the set objectives, contains certain novelty.
By adopting a rights-based approach, this open access book sheds light on the different legal and policy instruments that have been adopted to implement circular migration policies in the EU and their consequences for the rights of migrant workers. It contributes to the understanding of the meaning of this concept in general, in the EU, as well as more specifically with regard to its Eastern neighbourhood. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the formation and implementation of the EU's circular migration approach that has developed through both EU and national instruments on the basis of comparative case study analysis of Bulgaria and Poland's migration law and policy. Furthermore, by applying legal empirical research methods, it draws conclusions about the policy outcomes from the implementation of the various migration instruments falling under the circular migration umbrella and shows the consequences for the rights of migrant workers as a result of the application of different policy options. Along with its value to an academic audience, the book can be used by policy makers at the EU, international and national level as well as international organisations and NGOs working in the field of migration law and policy.
National audience The horizontal regulation (Article 4), introduced as part of the CAP reform (Agenda 2000), opens up the possibility for EU Member States to implement a mechanism for modulation of compensatory payments under the common agricultural policy. On the basis of data from the FADN (Farm Accountancy Data Network) and the development of a model for the simulation of the Berlin Agreement, the article presents a comparative analysis of the evolution of direct aid paid to agricultural holdings between 1991 and 2008, followed by an assessment of the economic consequences of the French modulation scheme. ; National audience Le règlement horizontal (article 4), institué dans le cadre de la réforme de la PAC (Agenda 2000), ouvre la possibilité aux Etats membres de l'Union de mettre en oeuvre un dispositif de modulation des paiements compensatoires de la politique agricole commune. En s'appuyant sur les données du RICA (Réseau d'information comptable agricole) et de l'élaboration d'un modèle de simulation de l'accord de Berlin, l'article présente une analyse comparée France-Allemagne de l'évolution des aides directes versées aux exploitations agricoles entre 1991 et 2008, puis une évaluation des conséquences économiques du dispositif français de modulation.
Goal. The article reveals the importance of innovative ideas I.V. Vernadsky on the history of economic thought and political economy. Two main directions of development of economic science are defined: positive and negative. The main theoretical problems of formation of political economy as a science, place in the system of economic sciences, unity and difference of components of political economy are analyzed. The fruitful activity of I.V. Vernadsky in the organization of science at Kiev University of St. Vladimir. Method. To achieve this goal used a wide range of general and special methods of scientific knowledge: scientific abstraction, deduction, analysis and synthesis to determine the ideological and theoretical sources I.V. Vernadsky as a supporter of historical and comparative analysis of various economic and theoretical schools, some provisions and hypotheses expressed by their representatives. Results. The article systematically and comprehensively analyzes in historical-evolutionary, ideological-philosophical, theoretical and practical contexts economic and political views of I.V. Vernadsky. It is argued that the scientist carried out scientific research and development in various fields of economics and was unique and original, but the vast majority of his works are devoted to political economy. It is revealed that in his political and economic views I.V. Vernadsky was mainly in the position of classical political economy, especially the English classics. Scientific novelty. It is theoretically substantiated that the most important political, economic and methodological imperatives of I.V. Vernadsky is a comparative analysis and opposition of bourgeois relations to pre-bourgeois. He believed that political economy was a science that discovered "natural laws" and helped pave the way for their implementation. Practical significance. The formulated and proposed results and practical conclusions of the article are that I.V. Vernadsky in his research and publications advocated the free development of all spheres of the economy. This approach was and is inherent in classical political economy. He focused the classical economic theory on the identification and study of the most fundamental and significant foundations of economic life of society, the laws that determine the functioning and development of the economy. ; Мета. У статті розкривається значення новаторських ідей І.В. Вернадського з історії економічної думки і політичної економії. Визначено два основні напрями розвитку економічної науки: позитивний і негативний. Проаналізовано основні теоретичні проблеми становлення політичної економії як науки, місце в системі економічних наук, єдність і відмінність складових політичної економії. Показано плідна діяльність І.В. Вернадського в організаціі науки в Київському університеті Св. Володимира. Методика. Для досягнення поставленої мети використано широкий спектр загальнонаукових та спеціальних методів наукового пізнання: наукового абстрагування, дедукції, аналізу та синтезу для визначення ідейно-теоретичних джерел І.В. Вернадського як прибічника історично-порівняльного аналізу різних економіко-теоретичних шкіл, окремих положень і гіпотез, висловлених їхніми представниками. Результати. У статті системно та комплексно проаналізовано в історико-еволюційному, ідейно-філософському, теоретичному та практичному контекстах економіко-політичні погляди І.В. Вернадського. Аргументовано, що вчений здійснював наукові розвідки та розробки на різних ділянках економічної науки і був у цьому унікальним і оригінальним, але переважна кількість його праць присвячена політичній економії. Виявлено, що у своїх політекономічних поглядах І.В. Вернадський стояв переважно на позиціях класичної політичної економії, передусім англійської класики. Наукова новизна. Теоретично обґрунтовано, що найвагомішими політико-економічними і методологічними імперативами І.В. Вернадського є порівняльний аналіз та протиставлення буржуазних відносин добуржуазним. Він вважав, що політична економія – це наука, що відкриває «природні закони» і допомагає прокласти шлях до їх здійснення. Практична значимість. Сформульовані та запропоновані результати та практичні висновки статті полягають у тому, що І.В. Вернадський у своїх дослідженнях і публікаціях відстоював вільний розвиток усіх сфер економіки. Такий підхід був і є властивим класичній політичній економії. Він орієнтував класичну економічну теорію на виявлення та дослідження найбільш фундаментальних і значимих основ економічної життєдіяльності суспільства, законів, що визначають функціонування та розвиток економіки.
