by Brasoveanu Florica - 91-94 Environmental Policy in the European Union and Their Implementation in Romania Abstract:Environmental protection in the European Union is today a policy with a principal role in the development and implementation of all Community Member States policies and. The integrated approach is about developments in the overall strategies of integration in the last decade of the last century who gradually adapted to the model of sustainable development. The Maastricht Treaty raises environmental protection at the "rank" of policy for the Community and the Treaty of Amsterdam includes the principle of sustainable development as one of the Community's objectives and establishes the principle of environmental integration into sectoral policies Through the six environmental action programs, the Union has developed a complex system of horizontal Community legislation and areas (air quality, waste management, water quality, nature protection, industrial pollution and risk management, hazardous chemicals and genetically modified organisms, noise , civil protection, nuclear safety and radiation protection), went on to the integrated sector approach, developed principles and tools for action and the external dimension of international cooperation
by Brasoveanu Florica - 95-100 Special Issues of Jurilinguistic Translation. Case Study: The Criminal CodeAbstract:This study aims at analyzing the process by which the highly specialized language of the legal system is highly influenced by English, as a lingua franca. The first section of the study deals with the concept of translation and with issues regarding the relationship between law and language. The second section is focused on corpus presentation, i.e. the Romanian Criminal Code in Romanian and in English. The third section uses the content analysis instrument WordStat in order to answer its central question: What approach can the translator use in order to choose between synonymy and polysemy in the language of law in Romanian and what are the stages of this approach?
by Buzarna-Tihenea (Galbeaza) Alina - 101-105 Management of Risk Factors while Countering TerrorismAbstract:This article attempts to highlight the importance of analyzing the risk factors in preventing and combating acts of terrorism. International interests to prevent, combat and counter-terrorism unit require capitalization, a joint experience in order to transition to a higher stage namely organizational setup and operational institutional mechanism for preventing and combating terrorism. Outside the risk factors (affecting democratic values, reduce access to some vital resources, environmental disasters, individual or collective actions manipulation and misinformation), countries of the world have to manage a number of vulnerabilities caused by internal structural transition process (judicial reform, the fight against corruption, social integration, regional economic differences) that can help increase the impact of these sources of risk to international security
by Damean Doru Claudiu & Popovici Dumitru Dãnuþ - 106-111 Concentration of the Banking MarketAbstract:First, in this study we try to test whether the Structure - Conduct - Performance Paradigm holds by investigating the relationship between concentration and banking system performance in Romania. We find that is a positive correlation between market concentration and performance in Romanian banking, according to the Pearson`s correlation coefficient. We observed that the competition in the Romanian banking system increases continuously in the last years, but the Romanian banking sector remain relatively concentrated. In the second part of the paper, we compared the structure of the banking market in Romania and Spain, using the Herfindahl-Hirschman and Concentration Ratio indicators for period 2005-2009. We find that the banking system in Spain is less concentrated compared with Romania and media owned by European countries.
by Dobre Claudia - 112-117 How Does the Economic-Financial Crisis Affect Our Education? Study on EU-28 CountriesAbstract:During the last global financial crisis, the unemployment rate grew significantly, reaching dramatic accents among youth. Unemployment phenomenon hit various segments of population with different levels of education, but especially those without an upper secondary education. This paper examines how the latest global financial crisis has influenced major developments in education and training, using, on the one hand, indicators that reflect the general economic picture in EU countries, and, on the other hand, indicators that reflect aspects of the education sector. Also, the paper analyzes the relationship between financial and the non-financial sides of education and training sector. The following indicators were included in the analysis: Participation rate in education, Early leavers from education and training, Total public expenditure on education, General Government Deficit
by Ghita Simona & Titan Emilia & Boboc Cristina - 118-121 The Notion of “Curator Litis” (Third Curator) in New Civil Legislation and Correspondence with Similar Notions in the EU LegislationAbstract:Starting from Trusteeship institution, as it is the most common, we watched to capture most situations of such notions. I managed to find a correspondent of curatorship in several branches of law, such as: civil law theory, theory of General obligations, contracts, inheritance, family law, commercial law, administrative law, criminal law and law of civil procedure. I had the opportunity to compare the old notions of this regulation with regulation of the new civil code and I found the interest of the legislature into two main Plains: the to regulate matters considered less legislation, but also to adapt the legislation to European novels
by Marilena Marin - 140-143 Property Acquisition by Civil ContractsAbstract:This work continues an author’s older theme concern of property, acquisition of property and contracts. Through this paper I aimed to bring to the attention of those interested in one of the modes of acquisition of property, with reference to the old and the new civil code. The analysis of a problem from the perspective of both the civil codes is the theme of the current, increasingly common in this time. Romanian legal life, during this period, gets used to the new codes and create the jurisprudence
by Pandele Adina Laura - 144-148 Controversies on the Legal Nature of ExtraditionAbstract:The legal nature of the extradition was a permanent object of discussion in the legal literature. Thus, many authors have emphasized the different legal nature of extradition, based on its role and purpose in the act of international cooperation in criminal matters. According to Professor Ion Tanoviceanu, the extradition is an institution of international law as it is the subject of numerous international treaties and conventions. In a recent study, the author Florin Razvan Radu noted that “extradition belongs to the field of public international law, namely of international criminal law”. According to other authors, the extradition has a mixed legal nature being, at the same time, an act of sovereignty and a jurisdictional one. Extradition appears as an act of sovereignty of the state, which may accept or refuse to surrender an offender in its territory
by Radu (Mitra) Mariana - 149-153 The Implications of the Legal System on Human Cloning, in Vitro Fertilization and Embryo TransferAbstract:One of the topics that incite the medical and legal worlds is the phenomenon of the criminal protection against genetic manipulation, a relatively recent phenomenon, especially taking into account that the technical possibility for its achievement is due to scientific developments. The criminalization of the facts circumscribed within this phenomenon endangering the future of biodiversity came to the criminal legislator’s attention in order to guarantee the specific means for the compliance with the rules established in the field of bioethics, that have become biolaw rules. The law, like bioethics, is applied both upstream and especially downstream the scientific act on human utility
by Radu (Mitra) Mariana - 154-158 Occupational Safety and Health within the European Strategy The Legal System for Occupational Safety and Health in RomaniaAbstract:The integration of occupational safety and health (OSH) with education represents, at European level, an essential component concerning the development of risk prevention culture. This allows everybody, teachers and children alike, to learn how to live and work in a safe and healthy environment. A strategy to promote a culture of prevention and protection must address to all parts of society, widening its scope and beyond the workplace and the workforce. It should help to create a general culture that values health and risks prevention. An educational institution must be a safe and healthy working environment for all the staff who carry out educational activities, as well as for the students and other persons involved so that they may be provided with a safe and healthy environment, adequate to the teaching and learning process
by Rusu-Zagãr Catalin & Anghel Sorin Ovidiu & Georgian Corina - 159-164 Struggles in the Representations of Roma Immigrants: from Migration Management to Public DiscourseAbstract:In this article we seek to unveil the interminglements between Roma migration in Europe and the shift in the public discourse calling for measures. In the first part of the article, we will establish the general framework of public policies in the management of immigration politics influenced the alleged relationship between ethnicity and crime, taking into account concepts such as Roma population exclusion, poverty and marginalisation at home and abroad. Moreover, we will present the important changes presented by the public opinion, taking into consideration several highly publicized events that cast a shadow of the Roma population in the region. Thus, as a secondary level of our paper, we will approach the specificity of social stigma for Roma immigrants, exploring the implications in the field of social identity and deviance. It can be stated that the economic, political factors were also forthcoming and fueled the process of scapegoating. As we see, describing the high level of criminality of foreigners as the general rule is often a cover for the feelings such as xenophobia, where differences between cultural and social identities are justified by stigma. Thus, the perceived inferiority and superiority can lead to group tensions that are also the object of the present work
by Staiculescu Ana Rodica & Gherasim Mircea - 165-169 Economic Implications of Violence and Discrimination in Public AdministrationAbstract:Recent developments in European law have heightened the need to reinvent our approach on workplace violence in the public service. Despite the recent concern in the Romanian law, the subject is rarely referred to, due to the lack of awareness of concepts such as the of violence and discrimination in the workplace, compared to their position in the European space. This paper traces the legal and sociological evolution of social reality as it is reflected in the Romanian legislation on public service and previous practice, with the intention to identify some links between these interdisciplinary approaches. We also want to stress the issues of social responsibility of the employer to the conditions of work affecting the principle of dignity and non-discrimination, and finally, apply preventive and corrective measures. We will attempt to analyze whether the difference between people’s perception of violence as a reality and the low number of complaints before the courts is caused by the lack of visibility provisions prohibiting harassment. Our work will also explore how the customized configuration of workplace violence is a reflection of the work environment, as perceived by public officials after successive reforms adopted by the Romanian authorities
by Staiculescu Ana Rodica & Stan Alina - 170-175 The Impact of the Treaty of Lisbon on the Most Important EU InstitutionsAbstract:The Treaty of Lisbon is the result of a long process by which it was primarily aimed to reform the legal framework of the Union. This reform had an equally significant impact on the representative institutions of the European Union. Accordingly, through this article, we try to transpose the major consequences on the organization and functioning of the EU representative institutions. The first part gives some general considerations with reference to the Treaty of Lisbon. The second part reveals the impact of the provisions of the Treaty of Lisbon on the EU representative institutions in terms of their organization and functioning
by Adrian Stoica - 182-186 Globalization and the ChurchAbstract:The Orthodox Church has been very concerned with this issue, recently. Globalization is an objective reality, which we can all observe, without being able to stop it. In Romania, we have been concerned with an objective reality coming over us, over the world, namely, on the one hand, the fact that we are becoming integrated in the European structures and, on the other hand, the fact that the whole world is becoming globalized or mondialized. Under these circumstances, the Church needs to find a way of working so that people may live a normal life from a spiritual perspective as well. For this reason, we should analyze all the consequences springing from such a way of working, both the positive and the negative ones
by Tucã Nicuºor - 187-192 The Development of Maritime Activities in the Light of Local AutonomyAbstract:This article tries to underline the importance of local authorities in the local/regional development. In the current competitive economic environment, the port administration is essential to the regional development. In the light of new territorial administration regulations, local authorities should be able to better respond to the market. Constanta has the logistics in order to become an important factor in the region. As many other European ports, it is also trying to increase its competitiveness providing better quality services and reducing their costs. In addition, due to reorganization, Constanta has the potential to focus on the local resources in order to enhance their productivity. Thus we will stress the importance of operational development, taking into account the increasing needs of the stakeholders
by Brezeanu-Lisievici Alexandru P. - 193-196 Diversion Acts – The Antipode of Economic StabilityAbstract:Optimal economic dimension of national security can not be obtained only through a functional economy, but also through implementation of represive measures for eradication of actions oriented against the economic stability of Romania. This is why we consider that incrimination of diversion acts with nomen iuris title can be considered as a guarantee of economic development which in turn contribute to the increase of defence capacity which is considered as a decisive factor for protecting the attributes of the Romanian state – unity, integrity, independence and suveranity. The present study intends to valorize the basic concepts which are part of the reference system in this field and also help in determination of juridical nature of diversion acts and based on it to describe the mechanism of lesion of economic stability through diversion acts
by Cojanu Gianina - 197-200 Influence of Europeanisation in the Reform of Public SectorAbstract:The literature seems to agree on two approaches of the concept „Europeanisation”. On the one hand it is considered to be only the process of adopting EU regulations into the national legislations and on the other hand, the reverse process is also considered, meaning the influence each member state could have on the design of European policies that are agreed upon. From this statement, it can be observed that he also includes “institutional structures” in the bunch of characteristics of the Europeanisation. Therefore, a first idea that Europeanisation could have an influence on the reform of the public sector is created, despite the first thoughts that come in one’s mind when the term
by Duduiala Popescu Lorena - 201-205 Principles into Local Planning and Management of Tourism to Achieving Success in Promoting Sustainable Urban DevelopmentAbstract:Tourism figures among the industries with major growth in Europe contributing with a 5 percent of GNP and generating 6 percent of all jobs in the European Union. Europe’s cities and towns contain a rich cultural heritage. Yet, maintaining this heritage presents many challenges, including dealing with the adverse environmental and social impacts of mass tourism.

by Gheorghe Lucian - 214-218 Public Private Partnership (PPP): Comparative Analysis of the Legal and Institutional Framework in Romania, Greece, Italy and PortugalAbstract:Public-Private Partnership (PPP) policies and projects have diffused across Europe and public authorities seem increasingly to be involving the private sector in financing, building and operating new infrastructures. The global and rapidly growing interest in partnerships comes out of the financial crisis which exerts a strong pressure on public finances around the world, having negative effects on the development of necessary infrastructure in different areas. Many countries have adopted the public-private partnership (PPP) model as a means of implementing large-scale infrastructure projects and have launched dedicated PPP units to support the uptake of PPPs. As a result, a wide divergence in national PPP aproaches can be noticed but the lack of processes, procedures an enabling institutions, i.e “governance”, is the main barrier to extending their use
by Gherman Monica Gabriela - 219-224 Landmarks of the Romanian Pre-University Education in the Context of European Policies Designed to Overcome the Economic CrisisAbstract:In interdependence with the European and world economy, Romanian economy has experienced in recent years rapid unpredictable changes, which produced a variety of social phenomena with direct effects on educational policies. Pre-university education system provides human potential both for the labour market and for the higher education system. The new approaches of the EU development policies provide that the economic crisis can be surpassed by improving the quality of education and by developing an effective management of changes in relation to the external environment changes. This analysis aims at understanding the harmonization of Romanian educational policies with the EU political agenda, it induces conclusions on two levels of topics on several aspects considered important in the evolution of the system and suggests responses in relation to the generated disruptions. The conclusions drawn and the solutions presented can represent the basis of a thorough research which can be used by any educational manager in establishing the decentralization / institutional development strategies
by Grigorescu Adriana & Olteanu Luminiþa Mirela - 225-229 Decentralizing Influence: How Can We Separate Political and Administrative or Administrative and Economical Entities?Abstract:The issue of public organization’s autonomy is day by day more important, both from a practical and theoretical point of view. Distinctively when we take into consideration the administrative organization of entities it can be observed a phenomenon which exists both in OECD countries and in developed ones: the need of institutional autonomy. In the framework of comparative analysis made by Pollitt and Bouckaert regarding the public management it can be noted both a growing tendency of specialization of functions and a decentralization of authorities, from the center to the periphery, correlated with the decreasing size of the public sector through the decreasing of the important birocratic organizations
by Iftene Cristi - 230-235 The Relation between Local Development Strategies and Projects Implemented under ROP 2007-2013 – Axis 5. A Case Study of the Centre RegionAbstract:Tourism is an industry that gained much attention in the past years, both from the media as well as from the business environment, policy makers and civil society. In this context, tourism has been subject to various strategies, plans and policies, at national, regional and local level. But to what degree have these documents been implemented? This paper aims at determining the effectiveness with which tourism development priorities set by regional and local development strategies in the Centre Region have been achieved through projects financed under the Regional Operational Programme 2007-2013, one of the seven operational programmes financed from structural funds in Romania. The analysis offers an insight into the degree to which tourism development and promotion strategies are taken into consideration when writing and submitting applications for EU-funded projects. Thus, the paper poses significant implications both for policy makers and for beneficiaries and potential beneficiaries of projects financed through ROP

by Rusu-Zagãr Catalin & Zagar Laurentiu & Mocanu Mihaela - 250-255 Identity in the Economical ArealAbstract:Identity is an intricate subject matter, especially when it is placed in the context of globalization. It presupposes sharing language, values and attitudes. That is to say, it places two cultures into contact. This impact may reach to an acculturating process in the economical areal. The present paper focuses on the words, expression and syntagms which are acculturated without being translated. Translation presupposes a difficult process but, if economists just get through a process of adjusting leaving behind the cultural traits, they may reach to foreignization that is an alienation from homeland’s cultural language and values
by ªerban Monica - 256-261 The Economic Development of the Settlements from Oneºti Depression. The Role of SMEs in the Region’s Economy Abstract:In the last 20 years a leading role in developing the economy was undertaken by the small and medium enterprises (SMEs), which tend to replace large industrial units raised during the socialist period. In the Oneºti Depression, in the past, the most important settlements were significantly trading with the surrounding areas, then starting the mid-XIXth century, the industry has become increasingly important, fact which, after 1950, boosted a powerful local centre, Oneºti. In the post-revolutionary period, the decay of industrial giants determined the investment of large amounts in the creation of new SMEs, which have emerged in this region, too. Even if most of them are small-scaled, they better adapt to the economic conditions of the present
by ªtreangã Constantin - 262-267 Economic Impact on the Development of a Locality. Case Study: Oneºti Town Abstract:Among the causes of the occurrence and development of the human settlements, an especially important role had the economic activities. Oneºti town appeared as early as the 15 th century, but remained at the stage of a rural settlement for a long period as a result of a low economic importance in the region. Starting with the 1950s, by building the Borzeºti Industrial Platform the settlement has become a major petrochemical centre of Romania, which turned into a pole of attraction for the population from a large territory. In the postrevolutionary period, local industrial enterprises have faced numerous problems, although most were privatized , they went through major restructurings, had to reduce their long activity, and some were closed. The effects have affected the entire town, which is in a visible decrease in the number of inhabitants, and most of the remaining population is strongly affected by poverty

by Yaremko Larysa & Poliakova Juliia - 277-282 The Factorial Correspondences Analysis of School Population by the Level of Education, at Regional LevelAbstract:This analysis assumes that there are differences between the Romanian regions regarding the structure of school population, by the level of education. Within this framework, there are considered the identification of the structure of the school population, by the level of education, and also the presentation of the differences in this respect between the eight Romanian regions. Thus, depending on the level of education, where the school population operates, we intend to identify the training level profile specific of each region of the country. The data used in this analysis are taken from the Statistical Yearbook of Romania, NIS, Bucharest (Anuarul statistic al României, INS, Bucureºti), 2013, and represent the values of the indicators registered, at regional level, in 2011. [10] [11] The statistical method used in this analysis is the factorial correspondences analysis, applied by means of the SPSS statistical software
by Aivaz Kamer Ainur & Vlãducã Ion - 283-288 Romanian’s Food Consumption and its Implications on Health Condition and Quality of LifeAbstract:The analysis of the food consumption of the Romanian population reveals the fact that a series of foods are consumed in excess, while other nutritional factors register deficient intake, which considerably increases the risk of chronic diseases. Thus, the high saturated fat consumption (foods high in saturated and trans fatty acids), cholesterol, salt, sugar, refined grains and even alcohol increase the incidence of chronic disease risk. Unbalanced consumption of fish and dairy products, fresh fruit and vegetables results into a lower intake of essential amino acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins (C, A, B, D, folic acid), calcium and iron, according to recommendations of nutritionists. Therefore, there are required some nutritional recommendations to ensure the optimal nutrient and energy needs of the body, thus reducing the risk of chronic diseases and ensuring the health of the population
by Constandache Mihaela & Stanciu Anca-Cristina & Condrea Elena - 289-293 Hayek’s Economic IdeologyAbstract:A proponent of free-market liberalism, Friedrich A. Hayek made fundamental contributions in political theory, psychology, and economics. His significant intellectual contribution to a number of scholarly disciplines was mainly grounded in his critique of socialist economics. And Hayek's critique of socialism was grounded in his scientific understanding of economics. Many of his contributions are so remarkable that people still read them more than fifty years after they were written. Spontaneous order, also known as self-organization, is one of his major conceptual contributions. It is in fact the spontaneous emergence of order out of seeming chaos from a combination of selfinterested individuals who are not intentionally trying to create order through planning. Hayek is well known for his use of the concept of spontaneous order to praise the market, reject socialism, and argue that moral traditions are the products of evolution
by Cosma Sorinel - 294-298 Bastiat: To See or Not To SeeAbstract:One of the most important liberal theorists of his time, Claude Frédéric Bastiat began as an economic journalist and lobbyist for the free-trade. It took him some years before he made the transition from journalist to theorist, when discovering he had both a facility for writing and some profound insights into how the free market operates. But then he ran out of time when his illness ended his life and he did not have time to flourish fully. Bastiat was indeed a superb writer. His brilliant and witty essays are remarkable to this very day. He was the first, and one of the very few, to be able to convincingly communicate the basic propositions of economics. Bastiat strongly believed that what was really needed was a science of economics that would explain the harmony of a free society. He made a major contribution to this end himself by publishing his incomplete magnum opus Harmonies of Political Economy
by Cosma Sorinel - 299-302 Government Failures in Regulating MarketsAbstract:Assuming the failure of the “magical power” of free market to exploit always the positive influences and to counteract the negatives ones in order to assure the economic equilibrium and progress, the present paper analyses the regulatory or “curative” intervention of public power in economy, often socially justified and really eligible, but in the same time not inerrable
by Gheorghiu Gabriela - 303-307 European SMEs Facing Challenging TimesAbstract:In today’s worsening economic environment, one of the most important roles governments, business leaders, and civic organizations can play is to take action to fuel entrepreneurship. The aims of our paper are to underline in short the importance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) for the European economic recovery and to present an X-ray of the SMEs sector in the European Union, highlighting the way these enterprises are coping with the various challenges raised by the current economic crisis. The methodological approach is literature review. In spite of the fact that the economic crisis has created a tough climate for SMEs they play an important role in the recovery of the global economy. Above all, the reluctance of the banking system to support ventures and growth seems the worst

by Moise-Titei Adina - 318-321 Empirical Analysis of the Relationship between R&D Expenditures and Labour Productivity for EU CountriesAbstract:This paper presents the impact of R&D expenditures on labour productivity growth for the EU countries, in the time of economic crisis and after this, starting with Mario Coccia’s research. For this reason we took into account two indicators: % of R&D expenditures in GDP and the real rate of labour productivity growth. As you know, at EU level, the quantitative goal is 3% R&D expenditures in GDP, to increase productivity and to respond to the challenges of globalisation and the knowledge-based society. But, not all the time, a 3% value or higher could assure a higher rate for labour productivity growth, as we shall see
by Moise-Titei Adina - 327-332 The Development of Earnings in Romania Before and After the Economic CrisisAbstract:Any economy attaches a significant role to the evolution of the wages in order to determine unemployment and inflation. The rapid increase in the average salary both before and after the emergence of the economic and financial crisis is the reason for this study. This paper is focused on the evolution of nominal and real net salary earnings at the level of the national economy, on economic activities and on development regions and the influence of salary earnings on the inflation rate and on the unemployment rate. The relationships between the salary earnings, the inflation rate and the unemployment rate are studied by means of multifactorial linear regression models. For the analysis of the correlations we took into account a 13-year period, 20002012, and for the evolution of the two studied indicators, the analysed period is 2007 – 2012. For the econometric modelling we used a software package called Eviews
by Nec?ulescu Consuela & ?erbãnescu Lumini?a - 333-336 The Impact of Innovation on Business Growth: Romanian SME SectorAbstract:Today SMEs make up the vast majority of enterprises, and account for a substantial share of gross domestic product (GDP) and workforce.

by Popa Florina - 348-353 The Rise of the Digital Currency and Its Implications. Bitcoin Between an Artificial Bubble and the Next Economic RevolutionAbstract:The digital revolution has penetrated every corner of modern life in the last ten years. The world we now live in bears little resemblance to even the recent past. And the changes that are coming will disrupt our lives in even greater ways, some good and some harmful. This article aims at analyzing one of these big changes – the digital currency. This concept has gained more and more attention from the media during the past couple of months, especially since the meteoric rise of Bitcoin, the primary such currency existent on the market. This might very well be a pivotal moment in cultural history, shaping our future in ways hard to imagine. For the first time we are talking about digital money that exists outside the control of governments and banks, that has intrinsic proved value and which can be spent anonymously. Alongside its novelty, the complexity of the digital currency concept brings about many contradictory opinions, ranging from those of pure enthusiasts recognizing its raw potential, to those of convinced skeptics viewing it as a merely ephemeral object of speculation. But this tidal wave cannot be stopped, and its path can best be charted by examining this thrilling new human invention more in depth. We will not only try to shed some light upon the technical aspects behind digital currencies, from their underlying principles up to the key question of their security, but we will also carefully consider arguments from both sides of the Bitcoin debate and even peek at the rest of digital currencies out there in order to better understand their fascinating world
