Our modern society changes continuously and many significant events are taking place in it. For example, the rise and fall of modern empires (the Soviet Union), the public deaths of world's personalities (the mass media mogul Robert Maxwell, the American president Robert Kennedy, the fashion designer Versace) or the pompous weddings of the European royal houses, the fierce political campaigns etc. bound people together and contributed to the appearance of Mass Culture. This paper is divided into three separate, individual parts that are, in the same time, connected. It will start with an Introduction where all the basic notions of the three fields will be presented. The First Part of the paper: Mass Culture will explain the importance of this field for our society that is a more technological one and will also concentrate on the relation between culture and mass media and culture and communication. The Second Part of the Paper: Mass Communication will start with a presentation of the first methods of communication and continue with all the transformations that shaped the field of communication until present. Finally, the Third Part of the paper: Mass Media presents the mass media means and tools used in our society. This part deals with different aspects of mass media from the physical ones to the legal and moral aspects. This paper ends with the Conclusions that underline once again the strong connection between the three concepts and their influence on our society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Our modern society is entirely based on communication. We cannot function properly without it, we cannot exist as society without it and the interpersonal relations are its main tools. I chose this subject for my paper because it is important to underline the place of communication in our society and in the world. My paper is structured into five parts that are presented independently but also connected. The Introduction will present the basic concepts of the process of communication starting with definitions and explanations of the process of communications and continue with the presentation of the physical parts of our body that allow us to communicate. The First Part of the Paper is the Verbal Communication. Here will be presented different types of verbal communication and the relation between verbal communication and building of the interpersonal relations. The Second Part of the Paper is Non-Verbal Communication. Non-verbal communication is an important part of communication and can give as many information about us as the verbal one. Its means are more subtle than the ones of the verbal one but equally important. The Third Part of the paper is Written Communication. The importance of writing for us as individuals is a major one. This part of the paper will start with a basic presentation of the writing tools and will continue with a parallel between the classical means of writing and the modern ones. It will also stress the connection between writing and culture. The Fourth Part of the Paper is the Visual Communication. Different means of visual communication will be presented and their importance for our community. The Fifth Part of the Paper is Interpersonal Communication. Interpersonal communication is an important part of our society. If we study our society we observe that all its individuals are connected by a network of interpersonal relations, The relations between the individuals of a society are very complex one and at each hour of our lives barriers of communications are raised or lowered. The Conclusion underlines once again the importance of all five fields of communication for our society and for us as individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is estimated that from 1945 more than 125,000 nuclear warheads have been produced ; replacement of hydrogen bombs atomic bombs led to increasing destructive power of nuclear weapons; modernisation of nuclear arsenals ; it is estimated that more than 2,200 nuclear warheads are ready to be launch. The United Nations Disarmament Commission and the Conference on Disarmament have been no progress in carrying out their mandates for more than a decade. In regards to disarmament, a series of recommendations are formulated concerning on: the nuclear weapons non-strategic, reducing the role of nuclear weapons, lowering the efficiency, transparency of information on nuclear weapons free zones nuclear weapons and security guarantees negative, the treaty on nuclear test ban, the treaty regarding banning the production of nuclear material to nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices, education on disarmament and nonproliferation.

Many conferences are organised regarding the humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons, these conferences aims is for the NPT state member to engage to ban and eliminate nuclear weapons. The catastrophic consequences of the use of nuclear weapons must empathise the humanitarian consideration in the disarmament process; the threat of use of nuclear weapons can be considered a crime against humanity. In the disarmament and non-proliferation scenery, the nuclear test ban plays a crucial role, according to the EU the treaty regarding banning nuclear testing must be ratified by EU states. In this respect, the entry into force of the treaty, EU is making both political effort and financial supporting the Provisional Technical Secretariat, the verification regime, nuclear explosion detection system, training in conducting inspections in the field.

The aim of this paper is to assess the way in which Putin's intervention in Syria has nowadays become a total game changer, not only in the Middle East but within the whole world. The paper mostly analyses the Russian military forces deployment over the previous six months (end of September 2015 - mid-April 2016) and its repercussions. Furthermore, it is explained why there is this sort of political relationship between Russia and Syria, but also, how far back this actually goes. The paper also identifies the other main actors in the region and their influence within the current situation. There is an assessment of the numbers of the victims and the refugees' crisis as well. Moreover, the relationship between the US coalition and the alliance between Russia, Iran and the Syrian government is explained. There seems to be quite an important clash between the US and Russia, on the matter of whom are they supporting and for which reasons. There have been a lot of debates on this matter, but as things stand now, repercussions can get much worse. Every single actor in this situation must be very careful not to take a certain action, or even accidentally do something, that can lead to the start of a global war. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discuss the negative and positive elements of possible departure of the UK from the EU. This paper demonstrates that the UK exits it it dominated by negative elements however there are positive elements, but they are insignificant compared to the negative. It is crucial to understand how much EU needs U.K, and vice versa, because together they can move more easily across any obstacles that may arise in the future. As Times said „If a British departure punctures that fragile belief, Europe could slide back to where it was at the height of its imperial glory: divided, feuding, dominated by a single power, Germany, in breach of four centuries of British foreign policy, but threatened by another - Russia (or anyone else who comes along). Only this time there will be no imperial glory, not much money and less defence.". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper approaches issues relating to the need of refining the concept of quality of education. It is believed that within the national quality management system, re-designing standards relevant to the many regulatory instruments also support the strategic dimension to quality education. The fundamental objective of this work was to measure, using current standards, whether teachers are able to ensure student well-being, as this is a prerequisite for increased quality of life. Within this paper, evidence is presented pertinent to the elements which determine the transformation of the concept of quality of education and the necessity to define more and clear targets for quality assessment in terms of progress, added value through education level learners, provision of education and setting the system level. This evidence was based on scientific investigations, addressing five basic (fundamental) questions concerning the ability of teachers to perform and provide high quality education, attaining the objectives and targets set, within the strategy for quality in education. Within this investigation an important aspect was also examined, i.e. the ability of school management, and in particulat the school director, to provide the infrastructure, resources, effective leadership and support to fellow teachers in order to obtain and improve learning outcomes and the well-being of the students, by improving their own management skills (planning, organizing, monitoring and evaluation). The research methodology consisted of applying questionnaires, direct observations and interviews with stakeholders, in twelve rural schools in Gorj county, in an effort to determine how the schools implement the improvements in school organization, learning outcomes, student welfare, teacher professional capacity, institutional capacity as well as the ability to effectively communicate with all stakeholders. The authors conclude that this case study highlights important issues relevant to future basic educational priorities, and compares and contrasts different approaches for identifying the main lines of action to improve education quality.

THIS PAPER'S MAIN OBJECTIVE IS ANALYSING THE ROLE OF UNIVERSITIES IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE FUNCTIONAL ECONOMIC CLUSTERS STRATEGICALLY ALIGNED, AS AN IMMEDIATE NECESSITY FOR AN INTELLIGENT GROWTH THAT GENERATES ECONOMIC COMPETITIVENESS. IN THE KNOWLEDGE-BASED ECONOMY THE UNIVERSITY HAS TO PLAY A NEW ROLE, THAT OF BEING AN INTEGRATOR OF THE ORGANIZATIONS IN CLUSTER AND IN OTHER COLLABORATIVE STRUCTURES AND THUS, TO PROMOTE A NEW WAY OF THINKING, A CHANGE FROM THE LINEAR TO THE NONLINEAR THINKING, WHICH ALSO SUPPOSES A NEW DIDACTIC APPROACH. THROUGHOUT THE PAPER, I HAVE HIGHLIGHTED THE OBJECTIVES OF CLUSTERS' FORMING AND HAVE ANALYZED THE STEP OF DESIGNING AND CONSTRUCTING A FUNCTIONAL CLUSTER. I HAVE EXAMINED THE ROLE OF THE CLUSTER'S MANAGEMENT ENTITY (CME) WITH A VIEW TO FACILITATING THE PERMANENT AND EFFICIENT COLLABORATION AMONG THE CLUSTER'S MEMBERS ON DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS OF STRENGTHENING THE VALUE CHAIN. BASED ON THE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCHES AND OBSERVATIONS, I HAVE SHAPED THE MAIN CONCEPTUAL AND THEORETICAL-METHODOLOGICAL DELIMITATIONS. THROUGH THE CASE STUDY, I HAVE SHOWN THE WAY THE UNIVERSITIES INVOLVE IN CLUSTERS' FUNCTIONING AND I HAVE DEVELOPED THE CLUSTERING MODEL ON THE IT DISTRICT CLUJ NAPOCA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

THIS PAPER PRESENTS THE VISIONS OF COLEMAN, BOURDIEU AND PUTNAM ABOUT THE DEFINITION OF THE CONCEPT SOCIAL CAPITAL. THIS CONCEPT REPRESENTS A SYSTEM OF INFORMAL RULES THAT PROTECT AN ENSEMBLE OF MORAL VALUES SHARED BY THE GROUP MEMBERS, BASED ON THE TRUST THAT EACH MEMBER HAS IN THIS VALUES AND ON THE MUTUAL TRUST BETWEEN THE MEMBERS OF THE GROUP. MOREOVER, REGARDING ITS CLASSIFICATIONS, THEY WERE IDENTIFIED THREE TYPES OF SOCIAL CAPITAL: BRIDGING SOCIAL CAPITAL, BONDING SOCIAL CAPITAL AND LINKING SOCIAL CAPITAL. THIS CLASSIFICATION PRESENTS THE GREATEST IMPORTANCE BECAUSE IT IS BASED ON THE EFFECTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT AREA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

THE AIM OF THE PRESENT PAPER IS TO SYNTHETIZE THEORIES AND OUTCOMES OF RESEACRH IN THE FIELD OF PSHYCHOLOGY AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY ON ETIOLOGY OF VIOLENT CRIME. THE SPECIFIC EXPLANATIONS FOR THESE ORIENTATIONS PRESENT, AT LARGE, A COMMON ELEMENT WITH BIOLOGY, WHICH I FIND IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE, I.E. SOME FLAWS AND DISABILITIES, INNATE OR ACQUIRED (IN POINT OF THE MENTAL, TEMPERAMENT, CHARACTER, PERSONALITY LEVEL) IN THE CASE OF INDIVIDUALS WITH VIOLENT CONDUCT. STARTING FROM THIS CONTEXT, THE ATTENTION WILL BE FOCUSED ON THEORETICAL AND EMPIRICAL APPROACHES CONCERNING: THE INNATE INSTINCTS OF AGGRESIVENESS (FREUD, 1991; ABRAHAMSEN, 1973), LEARNING THE AGGRESSIVE CONDUCT (BANDURA, 1973), THE CONNECTION BETWEEN FRUSTRATION AND AGGRESIVENESS (DOLLARD, 1939), PSYCHIC DISORDERS AND MENTAL ILLNESSES (HALLEK, 1967; HARE ?I MCPHERSON, 1984; SALEKIN ET AL., 1996; PORTER ?I WOODHORTS, 2007; MELOY, 2007; SHAW ?I PORTER 2012). THE MOTIVATION OF THE SUBJECT MATTER REFERS TO THE FACT THAT LATELY ACTS OF VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE FREQUENTLY OCCURRED AT THE SOCIETAL LEVEL SO THAT THEY CAN SOMETIMES BE CONSIDERED COMMON OR FAMILIAR FACTS. AS A MATER OF FACT IT IS ABOUT NOT OBSERVING ANY INDIVIDUAL'S FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO LIFE, THE INDIVIDUA'S SECURITY AND FREEDOM. CONSEQUENTLY, THIS SOCIAL ISSUE IS WORTH PAYING GREATER ATTENTION FROM RESEARCHERS IN THE DOMAIN AND THE SPECIALIZED ORGANIZATIONS. THE CONCLUSIONS OF THE PAPER REFER TO THE CHARACTERISTICS AND LIMITS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS ON VIOLENT CRIMES AND AT THE SAME TIME EMPHASIZE NEW RESEARCH DIRECTIONS.

THE PAPER PRESENTS THE NEED TO IMPROVE THE ADAPTATION OF THE EDUCATION SYSTEM TO THE CHANGING LABOR MARKET NEEDS IN ORDER TO INTERCONNECT WITH THE LABOR MARKET. CHANGES IN THE LABOR MARKET THAT ARE NOT FOLLOWED BY THE ADAPTATION OF THE EDUCATION SYSTEM CREATE IMBALANCES AND INCONSISTENCIES. IN THE TECHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY IN WHICH WE LIVE, THE DYNAMICS OF THE LABOR MARKET IS UNPRECEDENTED. CHILDREN WHO ARE TODAY IN PRIMARY OR MIDDLE SCHOOL SHOULD BE TRAINED FOR WHAT WILL BE OVER 10-20 YEARS. MANY PROFESSIONS WILL DISAPPEAR IN A FEW YEARS AND NEW ONES WILL APPEAR. THE SKILLS THAT EMPLOYEES WILL NEED IN THE FUTURE WILL BE VERY DIFFERENT FROM TODAY'S. BUT SCHOOL AND UNIVERSITY SHOULD NOT ONLY CREATE SIMPLE, EFFICIENT WORKERS. WE MUST NOT FORGET THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR A GENERAL CULTURE, CREATIVITY AND KNOWLEDGE TO HELP GRADUATES TO LIVE WELL AND OUT OF WORK. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

IN THIS PAPER WE PRESENT SOME PEDAGOGICAL ASPECTS RELATED TO THE COMPOSITION OF PROBLEMS IN THE PRIMARY SCHOOL CYCLE. WE ALSO PRESENT SOME SIGNIFICANT EXAMPLES ON COMPOSITION OF PROBLEMS ACTIVITY. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

IN THIS PAPER, WE PRESENTED ASPECTS OF THE ROLE OF EDUCATIONAL VALUES AND THE NEED TO RECONFIGURE THEM IN THE CONTEXT OF A SOCIETY WITH PROFOUND MUTATIONS AT ALL LEVELS. EDUCATION HAS TO FACE ALL OF THESE CHALLENGES OF THE WORLD TODAY AND TOMORROW THROUGH A NEW APPROACH, BASED ON A SOLID CULTURAL FOUNDATION. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE WORK WAS TO HIGHLIGHT THE NEED FOR "VALUE" WITH ITS CULTURAL, AESTHETIC, EMOTIONAL, ARTISTIC, MORAL VALUES. DURING THE COURSE OF THE WORK, WE EMPHASIZED THAT THE ASSIMILATION OF EDUCATIONAL VALUES PRESUPPOSES THE COOPERATION OF ALL THE ACTORS INVOLVED, THAT WE MUST APPROACH QUALITY IN TERMS OF LONG-TERM VALUES TOWARDS THE FUTURE. WE ALSO MADE A BRIEF INCURSION INTO THE EDUCATIONAL SPECTRUM IN OUR COUNTRY AND THE NEED TO RECONSIDER AND FOCUS THE HUMANISTIC APPROACH TO EDUCATION. WE HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED A MODEL OF INNOVATIVE EDUCATION BASED ON EDUCATIONAL VALUES. THE INVESTIGATIVE METHOD WAS THE DOCUMENTARY AND COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ARTICLES AND STUDIES IN THE LITERATURE IN THE FIELD OF EDUCATION THAT ARE BASED ON VALUE AND GENERATE VALUE.

EDUCATION IS ABOUT TO DEVELOP PHYSICAL, MORAL, INTELLECTUAL QUALITIES. THE EDUCATION OFERED BY SCHOOLS AND UNIVERSITIES TO THE CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE INFLUENCES THE SUCCESS OF THE ORGANIZATIONS IN THE FUTURE, THE DEVELOPMENT OF ECONOMY BY A LARGE. IN THE PAST, ANYBODY CAN EMPLOYEE ANYWHERE, NOW ONLY THE WELL PROFESSIONALLY PERSONS, COMPETENT, ARE ACCEPTED IN EMPLOYMENT. A PART OF THE ACTIVE POPULATION WILL HARDLY FIND A PERMANANET WORK, BECAUSE THEY ARE LOW QUALIFIED. ON THE OTHER HAND, MULTIPLE OF EMPLOYMENT OFFERS WILL NOT BE LIKELY TO BE GRANTED BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE OFFERED LABOR; THE NECESSARY COMPETENCES ARE HIGHLY, COMPARED WITH WHAT THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEMS CAN OFFER TO THEIR ABSOLVENTS. THE PAPER PRESENTS THEORETICAL ASPECTS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION FOR CREATING OF COMPETENT WORK FORCE, NEED FOR A FUTURE SOCIETY, WHO IS IN CONTINUOUS CHANGE, TRANSFORMATION.

The aim of this paper is to asses the growing threat to the US interests, represented by the spread of militant Islamism and radical Islamist networks in East Africa. Equally important, these trends will be placed in the wider context of various Islamic current practice in the region and also factors of social and economic policies that have shaped the security environment in East Africa. Moreover, the work examines the complex ethno-religious landscape in East Africa and East African environmental characteristics that have contributed to the development of extremist groups. The presence of Islamic extremists in East Africa results from several environmental features of the region: poor governance and crisis, alternative power centers, the prevalence of the informal economy, porous borders, wide access to illegal weapons and the proximity to the Arabian Peninsula.

Educational evaluation reflects the effectiveness and efficiency of teaching approaches, providing knowledge, regulate and optimize the educational process. Assessment and self-evaluation must be addressed closely with educational aims, content and teaching-learning strategies. Any change in the curriculum one of the components will generate logically changes, adjustments to the teaching - learning - evaluation. If school evaluation, errors are largely subjective evaluation by distorting the relationship between student performance and the actual level of qualification level, grade or marks awarded by the teacher assessor. In fact, it appears that the level and dynamics of grades awarded no longer reflect the true level of student performance and dynamics. The paper aims to demonstrate the methods of evaluation must provide both the teacher and evaluation subjects relevant information about their level of training, and thus the quality of education.

The aim of this paper is to assess the implication of China in a potential World War Three in Syria. It analyses the way in which China offered its support to the region, but also the fact that in a war scenario, it will definitely join the Russian and Iran coalition. On the dark side of the story, there is an explanation of how the muslims plan to take over several countries teritory and ocupy a vast region, over three continents in order to create an enormous caliphate ruled by the Sharia law. Furthermore, people of the high class and elites all over the world, already started to prepare for a potential war, building bunkers where they can survive a potential war. In order for this not to happen, several world powers have been taking action in the region for quite a while now. Military troops and equipment have been deployed, in order to control and eliminate ISIS. Although, in this particular sittuation, there is a worldwide debate, if this is not actually part of a NWO plan. All of the countries taking part to the events in the region must be very carefull, not to accidentally do something that might start a global war. For this particular reason, China did not send yet any military troops and tries to still keep themselves out of the military ecuation. Besides this, they are not even taking any refugees, but on the other hand, they are very interested in maintaining their economic interests in the region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The high public servants form a superior category of the public office in Romania, being specialized in carring on management and coordination activities at central and local public administration. A deficient application of the legal provisions that concern the status of the public servants and the involvement of politics in the appointment of high public servants can be seen although the public functions belonging to the category of high public servants are based on the principles of stability and career of public office.

This paper presents the role and importance of historical researcher. The historical researcher is presented in the double role: subject researcher and object researched topic. A history is the result of historical researcher. There is no history without historical researcher. Therefore, any history is involved, the historical researcher is not impartial. Consequently, historical researcher is involved in the story. Hence he has a responsibility to control his passions. The truth of history depends of the quality, seriousness, competence of the historical researcher. The historical researcher will enter in story as the protagonist and narrator of facts that he investigates. The historical researcher seeks to obtain autonomy, the right to issue a personal speech, according to his vision. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

THE PAPER AIMS AT PRESENTING ASPECTS CONCERNING THE TRANSORMATIONS OF MIGRATION IN THE ROMANIAN SOCIETY, NEVERTHELESS WITHOUT PRETENDING TO EXHAUST THE SUBJECT MATTER AT ALL THE LEVELS: SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, CULTURAL OR DEMOGRAPHIC. I INTEND TO FOCUS ON THE SOCIAL, DEMOGRAPHIC AND ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCES UPON ROMANIANS' LIFE QUALITY AND THE SOCIAL IMPACT OF PARENTS' MOBILITY ON THOSE WHO REMAIN AT HOME. AT THE END OF 2014, ROMANIA IS CHRACTERIZED THROUGH GREAT OUTBOUND MIGRATORY FLUX (ESTIMATES CONSIDER 3 MILLION PEPLE). WE ARE A COUNTRY OF ORIGIN AND TRANSIT IN THE MIGRATION DOMAIN, WITH OVER 15% CITIZENS MIGRATED ABROAD. THE ROMANIAN EMIGRANTS HAVE CHOSEN FOR THEIR DESTINATION ITALY (43%) AND SPAIN (30%), BETWEEN 18 AND 39 OF AGE. SPEAKING OF THE REGIONS WITH THE MOST EMIGRANTS, NORTH-EAST, SOUTH-EAST AND SOUTH ARE REPRESENTATIVE. HERE POVERTY IS TO BE FOUND AND THE POPULATION IS OLD. PIB IS MUCH UNDER THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. THE MAIN REASON IS THE MASSIVE MIGRATION FROM THE ROMANIAN RURAL REGIONS TOWARDS OTHER FOREIGN COUNTRIES. IN THESE REGIONS, THE HEALTH SYSTEM AS WELL AS EDUCATION SYSTEM SUFFER BECAUSE OF THE MIGRATION OF TRAINED INDIVIDUALS WHO PREFER WORKING ABROAD IN THE SAME DOMAINS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BASED ON TWO EXAMPLES OF DEVELOPING RULES AND ANALYZING THEIR DIRECT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SOCIAL CAPITAL, THE PAPER OBSERVES THAT THERE ARE SITUATIONS WHEN THE SOCIAL CAPITAL GENERATES A CERTAIN BEHAVIOUR BASED ON COMMON MORAL VALUES IN A COMMUNITY, A BEHAVIOUR WHICH IS FURTHER ON LEGALLY ESTABLISHED. MOREOVER, THERE ARE SITUATIONS WHEN A CERTAIN BEHAVIOR IS LEGALLY ESTABLISHED BY THE RULERS AND, WHEN IT IS ACCEPTED BY THE PEOPLE, IT GENERATES NEW SOCIAL CAPITAL. THIS IS THE TYPICAL SITUATION WHEN THE DEVELOPMENT OF RULES REPRESENTS THE CAUSE OF A NEW SOCIAL ORDER. FINALLY, THERE ARE SITUATIONS WHEN THE SOCIAL ORDER IS GENERATED SPONTANEOUSLY AND IT IS NOT LEGALLY ESTABLISHED, THIS ORDER BEING BASED ONLY ON THE BELIEFS OF THE PEOPLE IN COMMON MORAL VALUES, WITHOUT ANY LEGAL SANCTIONS.

DIGNITY IS A DIFFICULT TO DEFINE TERM; IT HAS VAST FACETS INCLUDING RESPECT FOR PERSONAL HONOUR AND REPUTATION, OBSERVING THE RIGHT TO LIFE AND PERSONAL INTEGRITY, PROHIBITION OF TORTURE, THE DEGRADING PUNISHMENTS, INHUMAN TREATMENTS, PROHIBITION OF SLAVERY AND CONSTRAINED WORK. BESIDES THESE ASPECTS, THE RIGHT TO DIGNITY IN WORK/ LABOUR IS A PRINCIPLE IMPLYING ALSO OBSERVING THE WORKERS' PRIVATE LIFE AND FAMILY LIFE, SHORTER WORK PROGRAMME, PHISICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH PROTECTION OF EMPLOYEES, EQUAL SALRY FOR EQUAL WORK, A PROPER LIVING STANDARD. HARASSMENT AT THE WORPLACE MAY TAKE DIFFERENT FORMS, EXPRESSION OF THE EMPLOYER'S PREROGATIVES TO MANAGE, CONTROL AND PUNISH THE EMPLOYEES' BEHAVIOUR. CASES OF MORAL AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT THE WORKPLACE HAVE BECOME A CERTAINTY IN ROMANIA OF THE LAST DECADES. AS A CONSEQUENCE THE LAW NO. 202/2002 ON EQUAL CHANCES FOR WOMEN AND MEN HAS PROVIDED SOME MEASURES THOUGH INSUFFICIENT TO PREVENT AND PUNISH THESE VIOLENT/ DISCRIMINATION ACTS. THIS PAPER INTENDS TO EMPHASIZE ON THE ONE HAND OBSCURITY AND DISCREPANCY CONCERNING THE JURIDICAL NORMS PUNISHING THE ACTS OF DISCRIMINATION OR MORAL/ SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND ON THE OTHER HAND LACK OF INFORMATION AND FEAR OF EMPLOYEES TO INTRODUCE ACTION IN THE COURT WHEN THEY ARE THE VICTIMS OF SUCH ACTS IN THE WORKPLACE; THESE CONCLUSIONS ARE THE OUTCOME OF RESEARCH ON OFFICIAL STUDIES AND STATISTICS PUBLISHED IN THE PREVIOUS YEARS.

THE AIM OF THE PRESENT PAPER IS TO SYNTHETIZE THEORIES AND OUTCOMES OF RESEACRH IN THE FIELD OF PSHYCHOLOGY AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY ON ETIOLOGY OF VIOLENT CRIME. THE SPECIFIC EXPLANATIONS FOR THESE ORIENTATIONS PRESENT, AT LARGE, A COMMON ELEMENT WITH BIOLOGY, WHICH I FIND IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE, I.E. SOME FLAWS AND DISABILITIES, INNATE OR ACQUIRED (IN POINT OF THE MENTAL, TEMPERAMENT, CHARACTER, PERSONALITY LEVEL) IN THE CASE OF INDIVIDUALS WITH VIOLENT CONDUCT. STARTING FROM THIS CONTEXT, THE ATTENTION WILL BE FOCUSED ON THEORETICAL AND EMPIRICAL APPROACHES CONCERNING: THE INNATE INSTINCTS OF AGGRESIVENESS (FREUD, 1991; ABRAHAMSEN, 1973), LEARNING THE AGGRESSIVE CONDUCT (BANDURA, 1973), THE CONNECTION BETWEEN FRUSTRATION AND AGGRESIVENESS (DOLLARD, 1939), PSYCHIC DISORDERS AND MENTAL ILLNESSES (HALLEK, 1967; HARE ?I MCPHERSON, 1984; SALEKIN ET AL., 1996; PORTER ?I WOODHORTS, 2007; MELOY, 2007; SHAW ?I PORTER 2012). THE MOTIVATION OF THE SUBJECT MATTER REFERS TO THE FACT THAT LATELY ACTS OF VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE FREQUENTLY OCCURRED AT THE SOCIETAL LEVEL SO THAT THEY CAN SOMETIMES BE CONSIDERED COMMON OR FAMILIAR FACTS. AS A MATER OF FACT IT IS ABOUT NOT OBSERVING ANY INDIVIDUAL'S FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO LIFE, THE INDIVIDUA'S SECURITY AND FREEDOM. CONSEQUENTLY, THIS SOCIAL ISSUE IS WORTH PAYING GREATER ATTENTION FROM RESEARCHERS IN THE DOMAIN AND THE SPECIALIZED ORGANIZATIONS. THE CONCLUSIONS OF THE PAPER REFER TO THE CHARACTERISTICS AND LIMITS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS ON VIOLENT CRIMES AND AT THE SAME TIME EMPHASIZE NEW RESEARCH DIRECTIONS.

IT IS AMAZING TO WITNESS THE RAPID CHANGES THAT EUROPE FACES IN THE 21ST CENTURY. THE CHANGES OCCUR IN EVERY DOMAIN AND THEY ARE WIDE-RANGING. ECONOMICALLY, FINANCIALLY, TECHNOLOGICALLY, DEMOGRAPHICALLY, FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE TRANSPORTATION, OF INDUSTRY, OF REGIONAL LANDSCAPE, EUROPE IS UNDER PROFOUND TRANSFORMATIONS. THESE PROFOUND CHANGES TAKE PLACE IN THE WHOLE WORLD. GIVEN THESE CHANGES IN ALL THE DOMAINS, THE WORK PLACE ITSELF IS FAST CHANGING. THE STANDARDS OF LIVING ITSELF ARE UNDER CONTINUOUS MODIFICATIONS. SUCH CHANGES BRING WITH THEM MANY NOVELTIES. CONSIDERING ALL THESE CHANGES, THE EDUCATION IS THE ALLIMPORTANT FACTOR THAT CANNOT REMAIN THE SAME. ALL THE ABOVE-MENTIONED CHANGES REPRESENT CHALLENGES FOR THE EDUCATION AT LARGE AND FOR THE HIGHER EDUCATION IN PARTICULAR. IN THE LIGHT OF THE HIGHLY GLOBALIZED, HIGHLY TECHNOLOGIZED WORLD AND IMPLICITLY EUROPE. IN THIS ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE KNOWLEDGE, INFORMATION IMPLICITLY, REPRESENT THE POWER. THE PRESENT ARTICLE AIMS TO FOCUS ON THE CHALLENGES THE HIGHER EDUCATION FACES, AS PRESENTED IN THE FIRST EUROPEAN FORUM ON TEACHING AND LEARNING AND AT THE SAME TIME TO PRESENT A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO MOTIVATE BOTH THE STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING AND THE TEACHERS IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING.

In this paper we give a definition to relative velocity so that size represents a vector of algebraic terms. We proof that this vector is contravariant in ℝ4 of time type. As an application will determine the relative velocity of the two observers you know their velocity in relation to third observer. Key-words: relativity theory, relative velocity, velocity vector [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
