This article examines the quality of sport events in the matches of Lithuanian basketball teams. The theoretical part analyzes the concept, significance, quality of sports events and the factors that determine it. A comparative analysis of quality assessment models was performed and the most appropriate quality model for sports events was selected for this study - SPORTSERV (Theodorakis & Kambitsis, 1998; Theodorakis et al., 2001; Theodorakis et al., 2008). A questionnaire was prepared based on this model. The survey collected and analyzed data, discussed results, and presented conclusions. Question arises – how to properly assess the quality of a sporting event? Object of work – quality of matches events in Lithuanian basketball teams (Lithuanian national basketball men's and women's national teams, Lithuanian youth). The aim of the work – to evaluate the quality of a sports event from the point of view of spectators: on the example of Lithuanian basketball team matches. The goals: 1. To define the concept and meaning of a sports event and it's quality. 2. To identify the factors determining the quality of sports events from the theoretical point of view. 3. To reveal the quality of Lithuanian basketball teams: Lithuanian national basketball men's and women's teams, Lithuanian youth match events held from 01.09.2019 to 01.06.2020 from the point of view of spectators. Conclusions: 1. The definition of a sporting event can be distinguished as the gathering of sports participants, spectators at a certain place and time at which they watch or participate in a sports competition. Sports events are divided according to - the level of the game (professional or amateur), only one sport (European and world championships of various sports) or several sports (Olympic Games). The significance of sporting events can be divided into direct (economic) and indirect (social, cultural, political). The quality of a sporting event can be described as the satisfaction of spectators and participants with the event and one of the ...

After analyzing the scientific literature of different authors as the factors determining the quality of sports events can be distinguished - material things (palpability), security, event location, emotion, event time, information about the event, discounts, food quality, staff competencies and friendliness, labeling, design, empathy, reliability (reputation of sports event organizers), level of play and experience of athletes, price, access (location of the sports event and it's attractiveness). 3. The research revealed that the quality of the research was well assessed by the spectators in the Lithuanian basketball team matches. Analyzing the satisfaction of men and women in the matches of Lithuanian basketball teams, it was noticed that the satisfaction of men was higher than that of women. The highest scores of respondents were in the safety category (the location and environment of the event are safe). Where most efforts should be made in organizing Lithuanian basketball team matches, respondents named the category of material things (modernity of the arena, sound system, ventilation, etc.). This category had the lowest scores for both womens and mens.

The aim of the article – To evaluate the influence of government's support on the social responsibility of farmers' farms. Methods used in the research. analysis of scientific literature (in order to define the problem of compatibility between the government's support and social responsibility), method of descriptive statistics analysis (in order to evaluate the extent of support and to the social costs of farmers). One of the support means designated for the direct inducement of social responsibility is the government's support to organic farms. Still it was determined that such support means as the support for the investments or direct allowances do not induce higher social responsibility consciousness between the farmers. After summarization of total results of government's support it was determined, that government's support for the farmers had no influence on their social responsibility increase. Due to this reason it is necessary to revise the priorities of rendering of government's support means for the farmers and to relate them to the inducement of farmers' social responsibility. ; Valstybės parama būtų efektyvesnė, jei ji verslininkus skatintų užsiimti socialiai atsakingu verslu, kuris nesukurtų išorinių neigiamų kaštų, neinternalizuojamų tiesiogiai rinkos kainų mechanizmo Valstybei papildomai apmokestinant socialiai neatsakingą verslą, susiduriama su šalies kapitalo pritraukimo ir šalies investicinio konkurencingumo problema. Todėl dažniausiai praktikoje taikomas kitas ekonominis svertas – socialiai atsakingo verslo skatinimas. Viena iš paramos priemonių skirta tiesiogiai skatinti socialinę atsakomybę yra valstybės parama ekologiniams ūkiams. Straipsnyje nustatyta tendencija, kad tokių paramos priemonių kaip parama investicijoms ar tiesioginės išmokos didesnės socialinės atsakomybės savimonės tarp ūkininkų neskatina. Susumavus bendrus valstybinės paramos rezultatus nustatyta, kad valstybės parama ūkininkams neįtakojo jų socialinės atsakomybės padidėjimo. Dėl šios priežasties būtina peržiūrėti ...

All over the World in evaluation of economic growth factors, knowledge is playing more and more important role. The supporters of the concept of knowledge-based economy (Burton–Jones, 1999; Romer, 1986; 1990) address knowledge as the resource necessary for the growth of competitive ability. Only the countries which applying up-to-date knowledge create innovative products or services, may expect higher price, and at the same time higher surplus value. Finally due to higher income received, higher taxes are paid, budged increases and larger opportunities for solving the problems of social isolation appear.

The affirmations of the theory of Constraints (TOC) have a wide usage in the evaluation of different aspects of management. The evaluation of economic processes of the country was not a key to the representatives of this theory. The scientific and practical novelty of this article lies in that the governmental trade support was evaluated with the application of the TOC. The article gives the domains analyzed by the representatives of the TOC. This theory is well employed to tackle the aspects of strategy development, project management, marketing, finance, quality management, production timing and other sides of company's administration. The main affirmations of the Theory of Constraints are also revealed here. They are extended and related to the evaluation aspects of the governmental trade support. With the application of the chain allegory of the Theory of Constraints it was settled that the support would gain effectiveness only if it increased the permeability in the weakest chain of the industry. Despite the fact that such kind of support is substantiated one must consider possible issues that may result in failure to increase permeability in the weakest chain (in the Bottleneck). This article gives the analysis of the issues that induce danger when allotting the support not to increase the permeability of the industry: • The support will not increase the permeability once it is dedicated to the other branch rather than the Bottleneck. • The governmental trade support can turn to a problem itself. It can cause constraint if the government gives the support to individual companies that run the Bottleneck business of the branch. The companies having gained no support can encounter restricted permeability of themselves. • Increased income of the Bottleneck business of the branch not necessarily can stay with the Bottleneck as the support gained can be repartitioned among the stronger chain participants. • Increased income of the Bottleneck business of the branch not necessarily can be used to enlarge the ...

The government plays a pervasive role in the economy. It has a variety of roles: it sets the legal framework within witch all households and firms take actions; government acts as a producer and consumer.

The following methods are used in the study: the analysis and the synthesis of the scientific literature, abstraction, interview and qualitative analysis of the obtained data.The main conclusions of the work: there still persist different opinions about government's interfering in free economy, competition and subsidizing. Ground of EU economical order is principle of free competition, but it is combined with support. There are most problems in agriculture sector because of relative big support for firms in this area. Support for agriculture sector in Lithuania will change preferences and specialisation of firms acting in this sector. ; Šio straipsnio tikslas - išanalizuoti ekonomikos teorijų požiūrį į valstybės konkurencijos ir paramos politiką, ES konkurencijos politiką bei konkurencijos ir paramos politikos įgyvendinimo problemas žemės ūkyje.Darbo objektas - ekonominė konkurencijos politika ir parama.Naudoti metodai:• Mokslinės literatūros analizės ir sintezės metodai - siekiant nustatyti požiūrį į Vyriausybės konkurencijos politiką buvo analizuojami įvairių ekonomikos teorijų atstovų požiūriai.• Interviu metodas - išsiaiškinti žemės nuomos kainų kitimo Kėdainių rajone tendencijas ir priežastis.• Statistikos duomenų analizės ir kiekybinio apdorojimo metodai - siekiant išanalizuoti deklaruotų pasėlių plotų dinamiką bei tiesioginių išmokų už pasėlius pasiskirstymą.

The relevance of this study. The perception of tourism as a viable economic activity is very closely linked to competitiveness. In the international tourism market, European tourism is seen as facing increasing competition from emerging economies on other continents. However, the tourism business is seen as a determinant of the competitive positions of economic diversifcation. Tourism in the European Union is seen as a fast-growing area of the tourism sector that can contribute to the overall growth of the sector, while tackling social problems and creating new jobs. International tourism and its economic signifcance is a little-studied topic in the scientifc literature, and its development through the prism of economic diversifcation has an increasing impact on the country's economy. The main problem. What impact do tourism business innovations have on other tourism-related sectors, and what impact is felt during the COVID-19 pandemic? The objectives of the study are: promoting the competitiveness of tourism and the resulting economic impact in the diffcult context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Object of research: Tourism and its economic signifcance The aim to analyze the concepts of the impact and diversifcation of tourism as a phenomenon on other sectors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results. The composition of the tourism business influences the economic development of all its components, and its safe existence is equally important. It directly depends on the country's economy, state funds, culture of the population, their desire to join the important concept of business organization and development, the focused approach of state and public institutions in solving business stability problems, etc. An important focus encourages the development of new ideas regardless of the impact of COVID-19 The used methodology is justifed – scientifc literature analysis.
