Institutions-organizations and institutions-rules (norms), levels of institutionalization and its influence on political development of political system, constitutions and constitutional interpretation, structural-functional characteristic of the main political institutions (parties, party and electoral systems, legislatures and executive power, public administration, interest groups, local governance, judicial and political communication institutions), variuos types, models of these institutions and activity, interaction between political institutions and their influence on real politics, institutional engineering, institutionalization of the political institutions, democratization and democratic consolidation processes – all these questions were discussed in this methodical book.

The literature highlights how climate change might challenge the definitions of wine geographical indications (GIs) in Europe. The central issue addressed in this thesis is whether European GI viticultural systems could tackle climate change via initiating adaptive institutional change processes to relax the constraints imposed by GI production standards. To do so, drawing from institutional economics theory and literature on cooperatives and collective brand, we developed a novel agent-based model (ABM) representing an abstract GI wine production system in the European Union (EU). Using illustrative data, our model allows testing different impact scenarios driven by climate change, spatial heterogeneity, and alternative institutional settings (i.e., voting mechanism). We used the model to explore individual and collective components of climate resilience and the relationship between economic agents and their environment. We compared the average output of 100 simulations for each of the 12 different climate-landscape-institution scenarios. The inclusion of endogenous institutional change led to considerable variations in all target variables, including the emergence of complex/chaotic behaviours. It enabled the system to reduce farm exits, increase profitability and collective brand value. We showed how landscape heterogeneity has a twofold role in the climate resilience of the system. It increases individual adaptability but obstructs collective adaptive capacity through institutional change. The two different voting mechanisms considered (i.e., relative and absolute majority) did not produce any discernible result. The study highlights the importance of policies oriented to strengthening investments in intangibles and facilitating GI rule amendments, especially in sectors where cooperatives predominate due to poor intangible investments capability and other issues connected to member heterogeneity.

The organizational management of an academic institution is the articulation axis responsible for the development of every school organizational structure. The way that it is characterized identifies the school. This research has the objective to introduce a more integrated vision about culture, structure and school organization. Thus, it is perceptible the great attributions and changes that add to the management thinking about it from that profile and its social context. The theoretical framework had a wide scope in terms of the management as a whole, the conceptions that emerged and continue to emerge within the historical context, the confrontation between the different profiles and the people involved in school and with the school culture, since the target of this management, is flexibility, exercise of independence, innovations, the sharing, the participation and the adhesion to the aggregate work, considering these variables among others as springs that sustain and assure the exercise of the democratic management. Therefore, it comes to conclusion that a management with communication has a great responsibility of being a differential in education, for its characterization as a school with continuing transformation, where the changes are procedural, due to various competences that describe the management. Without forgetting that along with this management, there is also the presence of several tendencies and studies related to the management, characterized by the school culture and the diversity of knowledge, values, beliefs and experiences

The Swedish cities have been moving towards city regions that will have consequences for democracy, local citizenship and political institutions in forms of economic development, competitiveness and living environment. The proposed study will research how the citizens are affected and how the political institutions are responding to these changes. L. Pitkaniemi
