Abstract

Der Grad der Unternehmenskonzentration ist in der österreichischen Fremdenverkehrswirt‐schaft sehr gering. Es besteht vielmehr eine kleinbetriebliche Struktur mit einem sehr grossen Anteil an Familienbetrieben. Vom österreichischen Gast‐, Schank‐ und Beherbergungsgewerbe können beispielsweise allein 90% als Klein‐ und Familienbetriebe bezeichnet werden.

Abstract

Das Thema hat zwei Begriffe zur Grundlage, die beide noch nicht restlos zufriedenstellend definiert werden konnten. Vielleicht liegt dies auch an der schnellen Entwicklung. Beim Fremdenverkehr jedenfalls ist es evident, dass sein begrifflicher Inhalt laufenden Veränderungen unterworfen ist. Er wurde aus einem Vorrecht begüterter Kreise, ja Klassen der Gesellschaft immer mehr zu einer Massenbewegung, die alle Schichten der menschlichen Gesellschaft zu erfassen in der Lage ist. Dabei kommen aber gleichzeitig stets neue Arten des Fremdenverkehrs auf; schon dadurch wird der Umfang des Begriffes «Fremdenverkehr» ständig verschoben und ausgeweitet.

Abstract

Fremdenverkehr ist ein Teil einer weltumfassenden Entwicklung zu immer engerem, immer bewussterem menschlichem Zusammenleben und wurde zu einer Erscheinung unseres sozialen Systems. Fremdenverkehr ist also nicht zuletzt eine gesellschaftliche Erscheinung und, wie dies in der gesellschaftlichen Entwicklung unserer Zeit begründet und allgemein feststellbar ist, tendiert er dazu, sich auszubreiten, immer weitere, breitere Gesellschaftsschichten zu erfassen, Allgemeingut zu werden. Auch hier erfolgt also eine Ablösung des strengen Individualismus durch ein auf Breitenwirkung abgestelltes, marktwirtschaftliches und gesellschaftliches System.

Abstract

Purpose

Mid-level executives are confronted with many dilemma situations, in which they are forced to decide between conflicting options, none of them leading to the desired result. If they fail to cope with them constructively, their individual risk for mental strains increases (Gerlmaier and Latniak, 2013). Initial findings focusing on executives in industry (Bossmann, 2020) show that fostering effective dilemma management in executives is a preventive factor against stress-related diseases. Yet, there is little empirical research that evaluates the contribution of dilemma management training on leadership’s mental health prevention in hospitals. This study aims to examine whether such a training program, adapted to current working conditions in German hospitals, promotes mid-level executives’ mental health.

Design/methodology/approach

A 10-month training program was administered to N = 69 senior physicians, senior nurses and senior service and administrative staff in four hospitals. To evaluate training effects on perceived stress reactivity, on cognitive and emotional irritation over time as well as the effects of the training dose on these results, participants’ self-reported measures were collected at four points in time: before (t0), during (t1), immediately after (t2) and three months after the intervention (t3).

Findings

Overall, participants showed less cognitive irritation and perceived stress reactivity over time. However, their emotional irritation did not change significantly. The dose of training participation did not moderate these results.

Originality/value

This paper contributes to the prevention of stress-related diseases and the promotion of sensemaking in mid-level executives’ dilemma management routine in the face of increasingly aggravating working conditions due to financial restrictions in the German health-care system. Findings of this study are explained in greater depth using previously reported qualitative data from the same research project.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to investigate whether the participation in land rental markets helps to mitigate impacts by climate change on multidimensional poverty in Thailand and Vietnam.

Design/methodology/approach

The authors use precipitation data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and self-reported shocks from the Thailand Vietnam Socio-Economic Panel (TVSEP) project to estimate climate change. Data from the TVSEP are also used to calculate a multidimensional poverty index (MPI). Fixed-effect logit panel regressions with interaction terms are implemented to analyze the above mentioned.

Findings

The results show that land rental markets are used as mitigation strategies to climate change in Thailand and Vietnam. The participation in land rental markets also reduces multidimensional poverty. However, as a mitigation strategy, land rental markets are only successful in certain circumstances.

Research limitations/implications

The results show that there is potential in using land rental markets as mitigation strategies to climate change. Further research is needed to better understand which adaptation strategies, besides land rental market participation, and which combinations of different adaptation strategies are successful to mitigate negative effects induced by climate change.

Practical implications

The results show that there is potential in using land rental markets as mitigation strategies to climate change. Therefore, education in the participation in land rental markets and how to use them as a mitigation strategy can be a way to increase households' resilience to negative effects induced by climate change. Households make better decisions regarding their land when they are better informed on the functionality of land rental markets. Additionally, being better informed increases self-confidence to participate in land-rental markets.

Originality/value

Land rental markets as a mitigation strategy to climate change rarely have been studied, and if so, mainly the effect of leasing land has been studied. Additionally, the authors implement new measures of poverty – a multidimensional view on poverty which provides new insights into who are the poor and how they can be lift out of poverty.
