TL;DR: The conceptuacion and alcances de las politicas publicas emprendidas a su favor han pasado by diversidad de enfoques and aplicaciones con un comun denominador: sobredimensionar por cualquier otro aspecto el caracter sectorial as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Se ve al desarrollo rural como un proceso de organizacion y modificacion integral de factores que interactuan al interior de lugares y territorios determinados y que afecta de manera directa o indirecta aspectos culturales, ambientales, economicos y sociales propios de los habitantes y de la vida de cada ambito rural. Su conceptuacion y los alcances de las politicas publicas emprendidas a su favor han pasado por diversidad de enfoques y aplicaciones con un comun denominador: sobredimensionar por cualquier otro aspecto el caracter sectorial. Hoy, las estrategias y acciones para hacer relevante la vida rural en los paises latinoamericanos deben centrar su atencion en un esfuerzo por combinar un enfoque de desarrollo desde la vision del territorio como sujeto de accion —politica e institucional—, desde el cual se promueva la constitucion de una nueva institucionalidad proactiva que beneficie al campo y a la poblacion que los habita.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of person-organization fit on work engagement (WE) and investigated the mediating effect of WE between PO fit and OCBI/OCBO.
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of person-organization (PO) fit on work engagement (WE). The paper also explores the relationships among WE, organization citizenship behavior-individual (OCBI) and organization citizenship behavior-organization (OCBO). Lastly, the study analyzes the mediating effect of WE between PO fit and OCBI/OCBO.,For this purpose, a questionnaire has been designed and survey data has been collected from 280 frontline employees of private banks in Pakistan. The partial least squares–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique has been employed to analyze the data and for testing the study hypotheses.,Findings show the positive relationship of PO fit with WE, and the positive relationship of WE with OCBI/OCBO. It is also seen that WE mediate the relationship between PO fit and OCBI/OCBO.,No prior study tests the mediation of WE between PO fit and OCBI/OCBO. Further, organization citizenship behavior (OCB) has mostly been studied as a single construct; however, the current study discussed the individual and organizational aspects of OCB with PO fit and WE.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the factors that influence the improvement of productive work behavior (PWB) in the dynamic, ergonomic nature of the workplace environment and explored the criteria required to improve PWB.
Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors that influence the improvement of productive work behaviour (PWB) in the dynamic, ergonomic nature. Design/methodology/approach: The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used, in experiment 1, to select and prioritise the most relevant criteria for improvement of PWB. A multi-criteria method is used to analyse and compare the importance of four main criteria and 16 sub-criteria identified from previous studies. The structural equation modelling (SEM) is also used to validate the findings of experiment 1. Findings: This study revealed that not all criteria are considered important for improving PWB. Flexibility and job specifications were the top-scored criteria. These criteria collectively accounted for more than 65% of the four studied criteria. The SEM emphasised the significance of flexibility and job description of the changing dynamics of organisational regulation during the contemporary economic and managerial turmoil. Research limitations/implications: This study explored the criteria required to improve PWB. The findings recommend that future studies should be designed to identify new elements and add new criteria and test the newly introduced variables at a physical workplace after the outbreak ends. Practical implications: Knowledge of the differential impacts of the criteria on the performance of PWB govern decision-makers in private and governmental organisation, especially at such times of economic turmoil and need for innovative strategies. Originality/value: Few studies have explored workplace behaviour and the environment in the government sector. Therefore, the focus of this study is the comprehensive coverage of workplace behaviour and the criteria influencing its productivity before and during the coronavirus outbreak.

TL;DR: For example, this article present an analisis of the politicoas de desarrollo territorial (DT), a set of aspectos vinculados al DT, with the fin of poner sobre la mesa algunos desafios que apuntarian a reforzar la dimension territorial del desarrolo argentino.
Abstract: En los ultimos anos, tomando como punto de referencia la crisis de fines del 2001, se transita, en Argentina, una interfase desde las politicas que entendian al desarrollo como el resultado de la difusion del crecimiento del centro a la periferia hacia un diseno mas complejo y heterodoxo donde se combinan varias dimensiones; entre las cuales aparecen, timidamente, las politicas de desarrollo territorial (DT). No es un hecho aislado. Muchos paises de America Latina estan redefiniendo su rumbo, mas alejado de las politicas neoliberales de los noventa, y aparecen, en el mismo, algunos aspectos vinculados al DT (Desarrollo Territorial) Es este sentido, emergen, con diferentes grados de complejidad, un elevado numero de planes y programas en distintos municipios, en algunas provincias y en una buena cantidad de espacios del Gobierno Nacional. La idea es centrar el articulo en un analisis de las politicas que se ejecutan desde el Gobierno Nacional con el fin de poner sobre la mesa algunos desafios que apuntarian a reforzar la dimension territorial del desarrollo argentino.

TL;DR: A partir de alli se recopilan las investigaciones con mayor relevancia durante los ultimos anos que vinculen estas tematicas as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Con la complejidad del mundo globalizado actual resulta importante comprender las dinamicas de las organizaciones y como estas contribuyen a la dinamica economica. Es por esto que se pretende plantear una revision de los articulos recientes que se han desarrollado en torno al Emprendimiento, la dinamica empresarial y empleo, desde la optica del crecimiento economico. Para tales fnes se comienza por dilucidar algunas teorias vinculadas con el emprendimiento y el crecimiento economico plateadas por los pensadores mas importantes en cada campo, y a partir de alli se recopilan las investigaciones con mayor relevancia durante los ultimos anos que vinculen estas tematicas. Los hallazgos principales radican en una importancia vital del emprendimiento para el crecimiento economico, sin embargo, el aumento del empleo depende en gran medida de en que sectores economicos se creen las empresas. Bajo este enfoque se plantean algunas conclusiones y se proponen discusiones que podrian dar origen a investigaciones futuras en la tematica.

TL;DR: Blumer as mentioned in this paper states that human beings act toward things on the basis of the meanings of things they have for them, and that the meaning of such things derives from the social interaction one has with one's fellows; these meanings are handled in, and modified through, an interpretive process.
Abstract: This is a collection of articles dealing with the point of view of symbolic interactionism and with the topic of methodology in the discipline of sociology. It is written by the leading figure in the school of symbolic interactionism, and presents what might be regarded as the most authoritative statement of its point of view, outlining its fundamental premises and sketching their implications for sociological study. Blumer states that symbolic interactionism rests on three premises: that human beings act toward things on the basis of the meanings of things have for them; that the meaning of such things derives from the social interaction one has with one's fellows; and that these meanings are handled in, and modified through, an interpretive process.

TL;DR: The Delphi technique, in its simplest form, eliminates committee activity among the experts altogether and replaces it with a carefully designed program of sequential individual interrogations interspersed with information and opinion feedback.
