scholarly journals THE SPECIAL UTILIZATION OF CASTLES IN TOURISM – FESTIVALS IN THE HERITAGE SITES

In Hungary, there are a large number of built heritage. Of these, this current research focuses on the castles. Nowadays castles can be filled with many functions, such as schools, common lodging houses, hospitals or residential buildings. The most optimal form of usage is tourism utilization, such as museums, hotels, event venues. Organizing festivals is also a tool for this, it generates revenue for the castle, and makes it widely available to enhance the visibility and acquaintance of the venues. A festival is also intended to suffice the needs of tourists and local people, and these castles provide a suitable scene for this. Thus, the current research aims to present and evaluate the form of utilization of castles in which festivals are organized. The study aims to answer the research question through several case studies, that festivals contribute to the survival of the castles as they generate revenue and create more attractive destinations. To answer this question, a primary research method is needed where interviews with the owners of the venues and the festival directors come to the fore. In addition, the available secondary data are required that numerical support the generated revenue and number of visitors alike. In the end, the research will be carried out where both the utilization of the castles and the festival tourism will be of paramount importance and a joint impact assessment will be implemented.

The main goal of the article is to conduct case studies of CEE memory policies introduced after the fall of communism and to present them as an interesting field for examining the instrumentalization of law. The primary research question is: Do several case studies of several memory policies implemented in post-communist states help to examine the theoretical concept of the instrumentalization of law? In this paper, I intend to show the hidden potential of such studies. I present some of the specific elements of new constitutionalization attempts in CEE, which included narratives of memory in several constitutions in the region. I also show their relation to the concept of instrumentalization of law. Finally, I describe some political acts of instrumentalization of law in the field of collective memory.

Abstract Where should office building concentrations be located in cities? What kind of factors has an influence on its locations? The aim of the research is to examine factors of office locations in cities. Selected office building concentrations in European cities were investigated as case studies. The research method was the spatial decision paradigm. The style, one of the main elements of the paradigm, was selected to answer the research question. The style was defined a composition of existing urban structures. Basic elements of urban composition in selected European cities were examined closely. Research results are conditions of office building concentration locations in European cities in term of urban composition. Such knowledge should be a base of decision-making processe during preparing master plans and city development plans.

This paper discuss about the reclamation of Jakarta Bay from the perspective of ekofeminisme. The reason the writerchooses this issue, because of the need to emphasize the environmental aspect paired with ekofeminisme in development policy programs that have been done especially the development done over the ocean. The issues to be raised in this research question about how the policy of Jakarta Bay reclamation is viewed from the perspective of ekofeminisme as well as to know what factors push and obstruct Jakarta Bay reclamation policy. The research method used in this research is qualitative research method with case study approach. In order to obtain data in this study, researchers will use primary and secondary data sources. The results of this study indicate that the development of Jakarta Bay reclamation has not been in accordance with the perspective of ekofeminisme. This is because the reclamation of Jakarta Bay is still concentrated on economic matters only, and has not yet realized sustainable development. Thus, stakeholders are expected to apply an ecofeminism perspective to the Jakarta Bay reclamation development policy to avoid a global ecological crisis and environmental degradation. Feminism replied that the energy of femininity and not masculinity, has the potential to preserve the environment.

Gambling, drinking, and smoking have often been examined for their relatedness. Researchers have conducted numerous empirical studies to determine whether there are significant relationships among the three activities. The commonly used research approach in prior studies was to collect primary data from individuals or problem gamblers in a particular locality and then used these data to analyze their relationships. The current study examines the same research question but uses a different research method. It analyzes the three activities based on secondary data from several countries. The results of this study reaffirm that gambling is positively related to drinking and smoking. Further analyses of the data also show that each of the three activities is positively related to income, and that gambling has an income elasticity of greater than one, while drinking and smoking have an income elasticity less than one.

The objective of this research was to develop a quality outcome matrix by exploring a systematic pattern for selecting quality tools and techniques in the Industrial Revolution 4.0, particularly in the smart manufacturing context. By conducting this analysis, the researchers found homogeneous patterns of sufficient quality case studies that can provide a basis for selecting appropriate groups of quality tools and techniques in different scenarios. Multiple case studies and an in-depth literature review were used as the research design approach. Two qualitative data collection methods were used: (1) primary data from face-to-face interviews with employees at Toyo Memory Technology and Intel Malaysia, and (2) secondary data from a previous study. Our study aimed to answer the following research question: “What are the appropriate tools and techniques concerning circumstances of quality dimensions and smart manufacturing?” Thus, our research developed a diagnostic matrix by developing an outcome matrix for selecting appropriate quality tools and techniques. The scientific novelty of this work is that this is a real-world case study describing the authors’ theoretical and practical prerequisites that can help other researchers and industrial practitioners or manufacturers in selecting the appropriate sets of quality tools and techniques for solving quality problems.

This chapter explores the case study, which is a very common research method in the field of social sciences. Case studies are important because they provide the examination of samples of a larger atmosphere, therefore enabling researchers with a variety of possibilities: to deepen the analysis of a particular occurrence in the world, to contribute to an existing theoretical framework, and to serve as an instrument of comparative analysis. Although it might sound simplistic, the research framework for case studies usually has to satisfy a few key points. Case studies can be divided into separate categories: exploratory, descriptive, and explanatory. They are also directly related to the type of research question being posed from the traditional five types of survey questions: ‘who’, ‘what’, ‘where’, ‘how’, and ‘why’. One can often find case studies among both qualitative and quantitative approaches, focusing on a case study per se or on cross-case method.

Children with Rett Syndrome (RS) are reported to use multiple modalities to communicate although their intentionality is often questioned (Bartolotta, Zipp, Simpkins, & Glazewski, 2011; Hetzroni & Rubin, 2006; Sigafoos et al., 2000; Sigafoos, Woodyatt, Tuckeer, Roberts-Pennell, & Pittendreigh, 2000). This paper will present results of a study analyzing the unconventional vocalizations of a child with RS. The primary research question addresses the ability of familiar and unfamiliar listeners to interpret unconventional vocalizations as “yes” or “no” responses. This paper will also address the acoustic analysis and perceptual judgments of these vocalizations. Pre-recorded isolated vocalizations of “yes” and “no” were presented to 5 listeners (mother, father, 1 unfamiliar, and 2 familiar clinicians) and the listeners were asked to rate the vocalizations as either “yes” or “no.” The ratings were compared to the original identification made by the child's mother during the face-to-face interaction from which the samples were drawn. Findings of this study suggest, in this case, the child's vocalizations were intentional and could be interpreted by familiar and unfamiliar listeners as either “yes” or “no” without contextual or visual cues. The results suggest that communication partners should be trained to attend to eye-gaze and vocalizations to ensure the child's intended choice is accurately understood.
