This book discussed the disciplinary genealogies of this policy, and reflected on its rationale, implementation, outcomes and evaluation from multiple angles. Four fundamental lessons are identified: CP is a strategic tool for territorial cohesion that has evolved from being a regional economic policy to adopting multi/transdisciplinary approaches; the CP’s Multi-Level Governance is complex but necessary for the policy’s ambitious objectives; decision-makers should recognise that Cohesion Policy is not a one-size-fits-all policy and that the specificities of each member state and region should be taken into account, accepting multiplicity of outcomes. Finally, the tension between immediate crisis management and long-term investments is a challenge that the policy must address. The chapter concludes by emphasising the need to recognise the complexity of CP, promote multidisciplinary approaches, strengthen the policy’s long-term perspective, and promote research-policy dialogues.10aEU cohesion policy10aForward-looking10aPolicy lessons10aResearch lessons10aResearch-policy dialogue1 aDotti, Nicola, F.1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aHurtado, Sonia, De Gregori1 aWalczyk, Julia  uhttps://www.elgaronline.com/edcollchap/book/9781802209402/book-part-9781802209402-36.xml03157nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245008900055210006900144260001200213300001200225490000700237520247100244653000702715653001302722653002602735653001202761653001102773653002802784653002302812100002302835700001802858856003902876       2023                        eng d  a1680-904100aLos proyectos JESSICA como catalizadores del desarrollo urbano sostenible en Polonia0 aLos proyectos JESSICA como catalizadores del desarrollo urbano s  c02/2023  a203-2220 v953 aUna de las consecuencias negativas de los procesos de desarrollo que han tenido lugar en la Unión Europea son las disparidades en el desarrollo de las ciudades y zonas urbanas, que afectan tanto a los ciudadanos como al nivel de actividad económica, lo que puede conducir a la degradación del propio espacio. Las disparidades pueden entenderse como el resultado de un fallo del mercado. Por lo tanto, es preciso llevar a cabo intervenciones que guarden relación con un proceso de regeneración. A fin de abordar este problema, la Comisión Europea decidió presentar la iniciativa de Ayuda Europea Conjunta en Apoyo de Inversiones Sostenibles en Zonas Urbanas (JESSICA), como parte de la política de cohesión ejecutada en el período comprendido entre 2007 y 2013. JESSICA es un instrumento financiero rotatorio que se centra en el desarrollo sostenible de las ciudades, y 11 Estados miembros decidieron poner a prueba la solución propuesta. El primer país en firmar el acuerdo fue Polonia, que implantó JESSICA en cinco regiones (Pomorskie, Mazowieckie, Śląskie, Wielkopolskie y Zachodniopomorskie). Este enfoque innovador entrañó numerosos desafíos para todas las partes interesadas (actores europeos, regionales y locales procedentes tanto del sectorpúblico como del privado) que participaron en la planificación y la implementación de la iniciativa. La metodología empleada se basa en el paradigma positivista, que examina las relaciones causales entre las intervenciones públicas (proyectos) y sus efectos. Se ha adoptado un enfoque realista en las técnicas de evaluación, así como en nuestra propia evaluación de todos los proyectos, realizada por expertos, que se han fundamentado a través de numerosas herramientas analíticas como el agrupamiento jerárquico y aglomerativo. De las principales conclusiones del estudio se desprende que los proyectos ejecutados en Polonia tan solo cumplen parcialmente los supuestos teóricos, y que las imensiones social y horizontal del desarrollo sostenible han estado infrarrepresentadas. Se observan ciertas divergencias a nivel regional en lo que respecta al enfoque modelo, y una región destaca en cuanto a la calidad de los proyectos (Zachodniopomorskie). Los proyectos relacionados con el patrimonio histórico o cultural, seguidos de los que se centran en la reconversión de los terrenos industriales abandonados, son los que mejor reflejan la complejidad del desarrollo urbano sostenible10aEU10aEU funds10afinancial engineering10aJESSICA10aPoland10asustainable development10aurban regeneration1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr  uhttps://hdl.handle.net/11362/4868500652nas a2200181   4500008004100000020001800041022001400059245014100073210007000214260001200284300001200296490000600308653001400314653001200328653001400340100003100354856008500385       2021                        eng d  a9782200933821  a0180-730700aLectures: Paquot T (2021) Ecologie des territoires.

The authors look also at the governmental change of approach towards the use and mining of cryptocurrencies being one of the assets and potential applications of bitcoin as (quasi) money. Design/methodology/approach The authors collected the daily data (a period from 01 May 2014 to 31 July 2018) on the development of the following magnitudes: Caracas Stock Exchange main index: Índice Bursátil de Capitalisación (IBC) index; gold price in US dollars, the oil price in US dollars and Bitcoin price in bolivar fuerte (VEF) (LocalBitcoins). The authors estimated a threshold VAR model between IBC and each of the possible safe-haven assets, where the trigger variable was the IBC; then the authors modelled the residuals from the TVAR model using MGARCH model with dynamic conditional correlation. Findings The results show that that gold is a better safe-haven than oil for Venezuelan investors, while bitcoin can be considered a weak safe haven. Still, bitcoin can perform (to a certain extent) money functions in a crisis-driven country. Research limitations/implications Further research after the change of local currency from VEF into bolivar soberano might be looked at on the later stage. Practical implications The authors provide evidence on which of analysed asset is the best safe-haven for the investors acting in the time of the crisis. The evidence goes in line with other authors’ findings, thus, the results might bring implications for investors of more universal character. Additionally, the result might be helpful for governments and/or monetary authorities while projecting institutional frameworks and conducting monetary policy. Social implications The unprecedented economic crisis in Venezuela was one of the factors that fuelled the mining and use of cryptocurrencies in the daily life of its citizens. Nowadays, the country is a leader in terms of the use of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in Latin America. The results show a potential application of bitcoin as a store of value or even means of payments in Venezuelan (or in other countries affected by the crisis). Originality/value The paper builds on the original data set collected by the authors and brings evidence from the models the authors constructed to verify, which asset is the best option for investors in hard times of the crisis. The authors add to the existing literature on financial assets, cryptocurrencies and behaviour of investors under different economic conditions.10aBitcoin10acrisis10agold10aoil10asafe-haven10aTVAR-Model10aVenezuela1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aKliber, Agata1 aMarszałek, Paweł1 awierczyńska, Katarzyna, Ś  uhttps://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/TG-01-2020-0009/full/html02479nam a2200361   4500008004100000022002200041245009600063210006900159260001700228300000800245520143700253653001501690653001301705653001801718653003201736653001901768653001201787653002001799653002401819653001101843653001101854653001201865653002301877100001701900700001801917700002301935700001801958700001901976700001901995700001902014700002202033856006202055       2014                        eng d  a978-80-86684-98-700aLocal Participation in Visegrad Countries: How Are Politicians Rooted in the Civil Society?0 aLocal Participation in Visegrad Countries How Are Politicians Ro  aPragabIREAS  a1093 a<p>This year, the Visegrad countries celebrate together twenty ve years since the socio, economic and political changes lead in collapse of totalitarian regimes. But the political transition brought also problems and new challenges not know previously. The rst free elections were held in the Visegrad countries that time and their inhabitants could choose their political representatives. Many of them came originally from the civil society and revolution movements. However, the political decision-making became disconnected from the civil society over time. We study the present rootedness of local political representatives in the civil society measured by their membership and leadership in civil society organisations in all four Visegrad countries. We are as well interested in engagement of activists from the civil society in an institutionalised political life, i.e. political parties and political movements. The purpose of this book is to discuss development of local democracy, local development initiatives and local social capital in growing urban areas in post-transition countries in which the civil society was almost absent or very weak twenty ve years ago. This publication comes up with overviews of the situation in four cities, one in each of the Visegrad countries. First the Polish case of Poznan is discussed. Then three capital cities follow: Czech Prague, Slovakian Bratislava and Hungarian Budapest.</p>10aBratislava10aBudapest10acivil society10acivil society organisations10aEuropean Union10aleaders10alocal elections10alocal participation10aPoznan10aPrague10aregions10aVisegrad Countries1 aPotluka, Oto1 aIdczak, Piotr1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aKalman, Judit1 aSpacek, Martin1 aKostal, Ctibor1 aOvadek, Michal1 aTholtova, Barbora  uhttp://www.ireas.cz/images/projekty/lea/lea_publikace.pdf03111nas a2200229   4500008004100000020002200041022000800063245010200071210006900173260004000242520229400282653001402576653003902590653001702629653001302646653001102659653002702670653001102697100002302708700001902731856013102750       2013                        eng d  a978-80-89013-68-5  ayes00aLEGAL ASPECTS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION  OF EU FUNDS 2007-2013 IN POLAND  – PRACTICE AND CHALLENGES0 aLEGAL ASPECTS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF EU FUNDS 20072013 IN POLA  aBelgrade, SerbiabNISPAceec09/20133 a<p>Poland, since the pre-accession period, has been dealing with the European Union financial and technical assistance. However, current financial perspective of the EU gave Poland opportunity to be involved in the whole programming period and participate in each phase of the Cohesion Policy cycle. The responsibility of the implementation of this policy is shared between the European Commission and the Member States of the EU. Therefore, one of the key elements of the use of EU funds is the regulatory environment and legal acts adoption that enable proper use of the EU budgetary allocations. Besides, the strong impact of the European Union has been visible on the processes of governance and law creation on both central and regional levels of administration. It has resulted in appearance of multilevel governance and creation of &nbsp;multilayered legal system in terms of the use of EU funds. One of the main aims of the article is to present Polish experiences with the implementation and creation of legal acts referring to the area of Cohesion Policy in the years 2007-2013 (including strengths and weaknesses). From comparison made to previous period 2004-2006 changes in the process of adoption and implementation of legal acts are noticeable. Moreover, some shifts towards stronger coordination in the phase of programming of the policy are visible. Challenges and remedies to weaknesses with reference to legal and management aspects of Cohesion Policy would be also discussed in concluding section of the paper. The methodology of the paper bases on the analysis of types of legal acts, legal and administrative procedures comprising EU regulations, Polish legal acts, Ministry of Regional Development regulations and guidelines, regional/local law, confronted with the consequences for system of EU funding and for potential beneficiaries. The results of the analysis can help to formulate recommendations for improvement in the forthcoming years 2014-2020 that can be useful not only in the Polish case. This particular experience can serve as in-depth case study for countries preparing themselves to join the EU and also provide some lessons for inter-regional co-operation in the area of regional development and consequences of multilayered law creation.&nbsp;</p>10a2007-201310aadoption of operational programmes10acoordination10aEU funds10aEU law10aoperational programmes10aPoland1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aTalaga, Robert  uhttps://www.academia.edu/3578342/Legal_aspects_of_the_implementation_of_EU_funds_2007-2013_in_Poland_-_practice_and_challenges
