- Summary/Abstract:In the process of looking for solutions for the debt crisis in the European Monetary Union, leading is the standpoint of Germany. In fact Germany is the country that has the potential – economic and political – to influence in the greatest degree the developments in the monetary union. Despite disagreements of other countries in the eurozone with German positions, there is something that renders them exceptional strength and it is the successful economic model of Germany. An important factor in this respect is the significant dependence of the monetary union and European Union as a whole on the German economy. The material analyzes the reasons and consequences of the dominant German standpoint concerning the problems in the eurozone. The reasons for the dominant position of Germany are economic, as well as political. The consequences can be defined as contradictory.

- Summary/Abstract:The Balkan countries entrance in the family called European Union meant and still means a challenge for the managers who worked only locally up to that moment to focus their work and the effective entrance on the European land, taking the risk which daily involves the permanently changing global surrounding. But, the same challenge raises the question whether those domestic managers are competitive on European ground i.e. to what extend their: knowledge, interests and skills can be competitive out of their mother country. This implies a situation in which the manager, who had a home career and is interested in career in the European Union, is competitive in terms of: the extend to which he/she is professionally aware of management, which are his/her managing inclinations and strains, how big are his/her computer skills, the knowledge of foreign languages including the host country language, the extend of adjustment and awareness of a new surrounding etc. The adjustment is connected with the willingness of the candidate and the member of "his family" to adjust to different culture and a new surrounding. There are different ways and trainings which are used around the world for overcoming cross-cultural differences aimed at adjustment of the selected candidates in the new surrounding. Since all international business corporations are connected with communication, a knowledge of intercultural communication and international business communication are of a huge significance in order to prepare business people to compete successfully in international environments, in this case the European environment. This paper is inspired by the positive dynamics of applying the contemporary practices in the management of domestic and International Corporation in the Balkan countries in order to accomplish competitive qualities for the European market. The paper strives to note the main benefits from accepting the contemporary management practices underlining the cross-cultural training of the contemporary management and the importance of studying intercultural communication.

- Summary/Abstract:EU accession is among the key priorities of Serbia’s foreign policy. In order to become an EU member, Serbia has to meet many conditions, including the harmonization of its foreign policy with the EU’s Common Foreign and Security Policy. Yet it is not such a simple task, given the contradictions of the CFSP itself, as well as the unique characteristics of Serbia’s international position and its national interests. This causes two interesting dilemmas. First, to harmonize one country’s foreign policy with the CFSP, means to harmonize it with something which is not harmonized within itself. The main reason behind this is the fact that the EU is not a single state; therefore it is not a unitary rational actor in a traditional sense. Neither is it a typical international institution. In fact, it is sui generis international relations actor, "stuck" between an international institution and a state, as the result of factors that influenced its complex historical development. This has two consequences. One is a rivalry between the leading countries of the EU regarding the CFSP decision-making process, which resulted in the creation of overlapping blocs of members with different foreign policy visions. The other is decreasing of both the EU and its members’ influence in world politics, even in its own neighborhood, in comparison to some great and regional powers whose actions are not constrained by membership in some supranational entity (above all, the United States, China, Russia, and Turkey). Second, there are four specific issues in Serbia’s foreign policy, which make harmonization with the CFSP without harming the country’s national interests difficult. The first one is Kosovo problem, where he majority of the EU members recognize unilaterally proclaimed independence of Kosovo, while European bureaucracy and political leaderships of the main members put pressure on Serbia to accept unfavorable final solution to the problem. The second one is possible forced NATO membership for Serbia, where it is not clear whether it will be required as one of the conditions for the EU accession. The third issue is of good neighborly relations in the Western Balkans region, where there is suspicion that some requirements unacceptable to Serbia (such as distancing from the Republic of Srpska) could be hidden under the guise of this phrase. Finally, there is issue of Serbia’s relations with some non-European powers, which may be jeopardized as the result of its foreign policy harmonization with the CFSP. In order to effectively harmonize its foreign policy with the CFSP, Serbia should firstly harmonize it with its own national interest, by formulating strong and clear goals regarding the four mentioned issues, which would comply with this interest. Afterwards, it should look for allies and partners among the EU members and blocs, as well as the influential non-European actors, whose interests are compatible with Serbian one regarding each of the issues separately. If harmonization of the country’s foreign policy with the CFSP after this procedure proves to be impossible, Serbia should place its national interest above the EU membership.

(A Comparative Study of Demand for Local and Foreign Wines in Bulgaria)

- Page Range:34-39

- Keywords:Wine; Bulgaria; Consumer Preference; Semantic Differential
- Summary/Abstract:We use a semantic differential based instrument to assess the main factors in demand attitudes of Bulgarian customers. We aim to find out whether specific marketing techniques could alter the demand for such a traditional product as the wine in Bulgaria. Given the fact that the Bulgarian customer only recently received the possibility to know them, we find that foreign wines are evaluated mainly with a prejudice of past knowledge, not linked to the actual product. We discover a rigidity in such prejudice and adhering to "standard" definitions of "prestige" and quality of wines. Most likely demanded in Bulgaria will continue to be mainly Bulgarian wines.

- Summary/Abstract:The first decade of the 21st century was accompanied by increased price volatility and price spikes in commodity markets. This caused a chain reaction in the world economy. The changes that took place had not only an economic but also a social dimension. Price volatility is expressed through the transfer of uncertainty from the financial sector to other sectors of the global economy. At the time of the collapse of the capital markets, commodities recorded record turnovers. New financial instruments have appeared to allow the avalanche-like increase in the positions of institutional speculators in commodity markets. In the short term, increased uncertainty is crucial for the price stability of the food. For example, through its impact mechanisms, climate change may cause another 115 million people worldwide to face chronic hunger and reach a total of more than 700 million people. For our country, the volatility of grain prices is of strategic importance.

- Summary/Abstract:The membership of Bulgaria in the European Union opened new opportunities before the Bulgarian airlines to participate on the European air passenger market. The barriers before the flights of our air carriers to all EU members were lifted. At the same time the European air carriers also gained full access to the Bulgarian market. Low-cost air carriers were the ones to benefit the most from this circumstance. Over the last few years many bilateral agreements for air transport with third countries were re-negotiated, this time on behalf of the EU itself. This brought new market opportunities for us, but our carriers are now facing significant competitive pressure on routes from Bulgaria to third countries, on which not long ago they were shielded by the clauses of the bilateral agreement between our country and the respective third country. The six years since the beginning of the Bulgarian membership in the EU did not wipe out Bulgarian carriers from the market but made them more competitive and inventive.

- Summary/Abstract:The purpose of the current report is to study in common what is the actual role of the African countries in the World Trade Organization (WTO). The organization was founded on the 1 of January 1995 and is one of a kind. It is an organization for trade opening and a forum for governments to negotiate trade agreements. It regulates the trade between members and operates a system of trade rules. The goal of the organization is to create a better and more integrated international trade system. The WTO is supposed to help the progress of free trade and all the members should take real benefits from this. The World Trade Organization has 159 members and a great number are countries from Africa. Mainly because of this, there is a necessity to observe and examine the actual state and role of these countries in the WTO in terms of constantly changing international trade situation and the global economy.

- Summary/Abstract:After the beginning of the last economic and financial crisis that started in the period 2007-2008 and is continuing to affect the global and the EU financial markets, the European Union has initiated series of regulatory reforms in order to overcome the effects of the crisis and to attempt to prevent future similar crisis. One of these reforms is the establishment of the Banking Union predominantly in the Euro area. The establishment of the Banking Union has many advantages and perspectives in relation to the EU integration process in the banking area. It aims to foster the stability in the EU banking system, to restore the investor and the consumer confidence that were weakened by the recent crisis, to complete the EU rules that were adopted and implemented so far for the performing of banking services within the Union. However, the project for reforms through creation of a Banking Union is not without some serious challenges. Some of the most important challenges are related to the scope of the new reform as the Banking Union will not cover all the EU Member States which may jeopardise the smooth functioning of the EU Single Market on banking services. Other challenges are the timing, the legal and institutional framework. Last but not least, the Banking Union will soon face the challenge to become not only "too big to fail" but also "too dangerous to fail". Notwithstanding the fact that it is not expected Bulgaria to join soon the Banking Union by joining the Euro area or through the so called "close cooperation", the creation of the Banking Union will also have an influence on it.

- Summary/Abstract:The paper explores the changes in Bulgaria’s exports after 2007 by product groups and main trading partners and generates hypotheses for future development. Four principal factors for determining the country’s export competitiveness are employed: level, growth and market share performance of existing exports; diversification of products and markets; quality and sophistication of exports; and entry and survival of new exporters. The analysis relies on the UN Comtrade database. A high degree of trade openness is supported by flexibility in adjusting export destinations towards more dynamic markets. A substantial weakness of Bulgarian exports is the quality dimension. It appears that Bulgaria’s membership in the EU intensifies the orientation of the export basket towards raw materials, resource based goods and products with low technological sophistication. This study can be regarded as an initial step towards identification of options for policies supporting export development as an important component of Bulgarian economic growth.

- Summary/Abstract:The capital of a bank can be perceived as its own funds, as opposed to borrowed capital, as deposits and checking accounts. The capital can be used to cover losses, which may reduce the credit risk. The more risky assets a bank has, the more capital it would need to avoid (balance sheet) insolvency. At the same time, in unfavorable market conditions, banks may need more cash or assets that could easily be converted into cash to pay off debts to their depositors or creditors on time. This poses a liquidity risk. A stable funding profile, as well as a buffer of highly liquid assets, would help to overcome it. Banks would prefer to work with lower levels of financial resources than the optimal, socially justified, level. Regulatory rules aim to address such problems and ensure that credit and liquidity risk are properly accounted for and that the corresponding costs are borne by institutions and their customers in periods of economic prosperity rather than by public authorities in times of crisis.

- Summary/Abstract:The aim of this paper is to present the political, social and, to some extent, economic circumstances of the ongoing process of European integration of Turkey. The author will try to highlight the key obstacles to Turkish membership in the EU, and to clearly point out the specific benefits that this country has made on the road to EU accession. In this paper we will first exhibit historical circumstances which "traced" Turkey in EU direction, and then proceeded with a brief chronology of the accession process. After that we will analyze the main causes of the Turkish "stumbling" on the European path. Weak political pluralism, compromised human and minority rights, the Cyprus issue and disputes with Greece, are problems which Turkey has to positively resolve in order to achieve progress in the accession negotiations. Also, major problem is the negative perception of Turkish EU membership among many political leaders and EU citizens. After that, we will deal with particular benefits that Turkey has achieved thanks to the implementation of the Association Agreement. From the economic point of view Turkey undoubtedly benefited from its "harmonization" with EU. EU market remains the largest export market for Turkish goods, and part of the explanation of its current economic boom should be sought in the actual economic arrangements with the EU that eased Turkey access to the markets of most developed European countries. More than a third of Turkey's total exports goes to EU countries and about 80% of all foreign direct investment to Turkey comes from the EU. However, the main "benefit" that the EU process has brought to Turkey was not economic. In fact, it was the process of accession to the EU that provide civil authorities with arguments to put powerful Turkish army under civil control. The specific steps were taken in 2003, and were related to the reform of the National Security Council. In that year Turkish Majlis approved so-called "seventh reform package" for harmonization with the EU, which significantly weakened the military capacity of interference in the affairs of civil government. Thereby, the National Security Council was stripped of executive power and it's role of "watchdog" was abolished. Also, this security body lost previous possibility of unlimited access to civilian institutions. After that, the EU has repeatedly made it clear that they will not allow any toying with the concept of democracy, and openly distanced itself from the traditional Turkish formula of Army as the "guardian" of democracy. In the final part we will analyze the current Turkish foreign policy, attempting to answer the question whether on Bosporus currently some new, not so much "Western" winds are blowing? In recent years, Turkey extremely sharpened its rhetoric toward the EU. The culmination of this trend was the actualization of the Cyprus issue and Turkey's threats to completely freeze relations with the EU during the Cyprus EU Presidency in the second half of the 2012th. Also public support to EU integration project is facing a drastic decline. In line to the public mood, Turkish political elite increasingly talk about alternative integration – BRICS and Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

- Summary/Abstract:Industrial production is part of the economy as an activity which aims to satisfy individual and aggregated needs. Human needs are virtually limitless, while resources for the production of goods and services designed to meet those needs are naturally limited. This limited resources and unlimited consumption forces individuals to carry out their activities efficiently i.e., to organize them in a manner so that from the limited resources to achieve maximum satisfaction of its needs. It is obvious that the realization of this goal is a process of making and implementing decisions for the production of goods and services and for their consumption. All this requires the establishment of a common EU industrial policy, and the aim of the report is to examine the principles and essence of this policy. This research would gradually analyze the principles and nature of public policies, as well as the development and objectives of EU industrial policy.

- Summary/Abstract:The territorial cohesion is a fundamental principle of regional policy among the EU countries. Cohesion, or cohesion in the socio-economic and environmental development of the countries of the community, is applied in order to limit and reduce territorial (spatial) inequalities, which always arise objectively in the course of natural and social dynamics. This problem has been identified as a priority for the EU since the early 1990s. The main objectives related to the territorial cohesion policy are: - How to use the strengths and weaknesses of each territory to make a qualitative transition to sustainable and balanced development (regional and national level)? - How to achieve effective territorial concentration of resources? - How to minimize the costs of land management, respectively in urban areas, rural areas and specific areas? In the last two decades, the socio-economic development of Bulgaria has been accompanied by growing regional inequalities - demographic, urban, economic, infrastructural. Despite the already performed assessments and evaluations, this tendency is deepening, which is accompanied by an increase in the costs of material and financial resources for territorial governance. Studies were conducted at a national level in the countries of Western and Central Europe, which revealed processes of increasing territorial disparities in the development and territorial organization of natural social systems. Therefore, for the period 2001-2011, in spite of the consistently pursued and targeted funding of territorial cohesion policy in the EU, the added value received is low, and for individual countries and regions - negative. Or in other words - the economic and social rifts in the community are widening. From these starting points, a comparative analysis of some key indicators for the EU and the statistical regions of NUTS-2 level classification was conducted.

- Summary/Abstract:The developed Integrated urban plans for recovery and development (IUPRD) by the end of the planning period 2007 to 2013, referred to the 36 largest cities of the country. In subsequent years it provides for developing such plans in further 31 cities. This means that the planning of urban development in 67 cities will form a network of urban poles in the national space as an indefeasible condition about the transition to a sustainable and balanced development. From the analysis of Methodological guidelines for developing and applying of IUPRD (2010 and 2012, Ministry of regional development and management) and the elaborated plans about Sofia, Blagoevgrad and Stara Zagora, there are determined problems and discrepancies that impose well-founded corrections and effective decisions about their overcoming. In this regard, proposals are made to improve the process of planning and management of urban areas in Bulgaria.

- Summary/Abstract:The present scientific announcement focuses on the problem area, outlining the parameters of the tourism industry worldwide and environmental awareness of the citizens. The fact is that international tourism these days is a business with very large scale. Every year about 800 million people depart on a trip abroad. In addition, almost 2.8 billion spend leaves and holidays in their home countries. Estimated by the World Tourism Organization, the income from the tourism sector amounts to over $1.5 trillion annually. As one of the major sectors of economy, tourism is severely affected by all the changes occurring in the environment. Of course the relation is two-way – on the one hand, tourism has an impact on the social and cultural environment and ecology, on the other – socio-cultural and environmental factors affect it. Overcoming the antagonism between man and nature is possible only in a society, characterized by a high level of environmental awareness of the people and their willingness to contribute to the harmonious development of the environment. In this connection, the attention of the competent governmental and industry bodies is directed towards the search for innovative ways to shape and improve the environmental awareness of citizens, emphasizing not only utilitarian but also the ethical and aesthetical aspects of it.

- Summary/Abstract:A prominent feature of our time are the high technologies, constantly evolving production processes, the unique in its scale globalization, the unprecedented attention to the preservation of the surrounding nature. In these conditions, international business in all its forms is an integral part of the socio-economic life. It significantly contributes to the increase in gross domestic product of the developed countries and for the economic progress of developing countries and those from the third world. In modern times, however, more attention is being dedicated not only to the economic growth as such, but also to the ways in which it is being achieved. The main issue at the moment is how to protect the dwindling natural resources reserves while not slowing down the economic growth of the society; how to reduce anthropologically induced eco-footprint on the nature and protect humans’ health and lives without affecting their standard of living - in other words, how to achieve economic growth through sustainable development. Within the framework of this continuous care for the environment and the great attention to the sustainable development in modern economic life, the emergence of a new type of economy is observed, namely the green economy. This emerging field of the economics, as well as the actions and measures taken at the national and international level for the protection of nature and its resources, inevitably have an impact on international business. The text hereby presents briefly some of the changes that have been identified in the forms of international business in the framework of the research project "Global Environmental Challenges and Changes in International Business".
