At the end of authorities should identify ways to curb private vehicle usage and focus on this quantitative and qualitative analysis, several recommendations were more sustainable, efficient, and less costly transport alternatives.

City government is taking into consideration this efficient method to promote multimodality by linking parking to public Public Transport Development transport. People who travel to the city drive their cars to these facilities, Cluj has a well-developed public transportation system and a testimony to from where they take public transport to get to their workplace. In this is the fact that half of the commuters in the city use public transit for addition, local authorities are planning on building underground parking, their daily trips. Local authorities plan to further invest in the efficiency of as well as hiking prices for remaining parking spaces in the city center. the current system by purchasing new, energy-efficient rolling stocks, However, before such facilities are developed, one has to have a better expanding the tram network, extending the public transport system to the understanding of commuting patterns in the larger metropolitan area, and metropolitan area, and introducing e-ticketing.

    Romania Page 1 of 13 Romania International Religious Freedom Report 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor The Constitution provides for freedom of religion; while the Government generally respects this right in practice, some restrictions adversely affect religious freedom, and several minority religious groups continued to claim credibly that low-level government officials impeded their efforts at proselytizing and interfered with other religious activities. There was no overall change in the status of respect for religious freedom during the period covered by this report. The Government continues to differentiate between recognized and unrecognized religions, and registration and recognition requirements still posed obstacles to minority religions. The Government did not adopt a new law regulating religions; however, a draft law on religious freedom is under debate by the State Secretariat for Religious Denominations and the recognized religions. Unrecognized religions have not been given any role or say in the debate. The Government has not passed legislation to return to the Greek Catholic community the churches and church property transferred by the communists to the Orthodox Church in 1948, nor has it shown any inclination to do so. An international commission headed by Nobel Prize Laureate Elie Wiesel, set up in 2003 to study the Holocaust in Romania, presented its report, conclusions, and recommendations in November 2004, and state authorities acknowledged publicly the occurrence of the Holocaust in the country. In October 2004, the country commemorated its first annual Holocaust Remembrance Day with the Government organizing public events for the commemoration. The Government also took some steps towards introducing the issue of the Holocaust in the country in school curricula.

  • Presentation Innovation Seminar
    1 2 Dealurile Clujului Est learning area (LA) is located in the North-Western Romanian Development region (Map 1). The site is situated in the middle of the Romanian historical region of Transylvania that borders to the North-East with Ukraine and to the West with Hungary (Map 2). 3 Administratively, the study area is divided into eight communes (Apahida, Bonțida, Borșa, Chinteni, Dăbâca, Jucu, Panticeu and Vultureni) that are located in the peri-urban area of Cluj - Napoca city (321.687 inhabitants in 2016). It is the biggest Transylvanian city in terms of population and GDP per capita (Map 3). A Natura 2000 site is the core of the LA, and has the same name (Map 4). The LA boundaries were set to capture the Natura 2000 site plus surrounding farmland with similar nature values. The study area also belongs to several local administrative associations. With the exception of two communes (Panticeu and Chinteni), the territory appertains to the Local Action Group (LAG) Someș Transilvan. Panticeu commune is member of Leader Cluj LAG and Chinteni commune currently belongs to no LAG (Map 3). This situation brings inconsistences in terms of good area management. All administrative units, with the exception of Panticeu, belong to the Cluj-Napoca Metropolitan Area. Its strategy acknowledged agriculture as a key objective. Also, it is previewed that the rural areas around Cluj-Napoca can be developed by promoting local brands to the urban consumers and by creating ecotourism facilities (Cluj- Napoca Metropolitan Area Strategy, 2016). The assessment shows that future HNV innovative programmes have to be incorporated in all these local associative initiatives.

    EXPERIENCE DISTRIBUTION NETWORK The Case of URSUS Breweries Company Lect. PhD Ciprian-Marcel Pop1, PhD stud. Ioan Pop1 1 Babes-Bolyai University, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, 58-60 Th. Mihali st, 400591, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, [email protected] Abstract. A company survives in nowadays tumultuous (even hostile) environment because of the close and strong relationships among its partners. Today, companies compete less on the basis of isolated resources and capabilities, and more on the totality of the network’s resources and capabilities. In terms of mitigating the risk factors, we’re proposing a partnership- based distribution model that ties services and operational fees to performance outcomes. URSUS Breweries is one of the biggest beer producers in Romania. As a subsidiary of SAB Miller, this company is continuously preoccupied in implementing the newest politics and procedures in the selling field, as support of continuous development on a dynamic market. A major decisions recently adopted is focused on building a solid, a strong partnership with company’s distributors. The firm’s task is now to build an experience network, together with the distributors, a network which will gain a stronger competitive position on the market. JEL classification: M31, L14, L66. Key-words: ¾ Value-oriented marketing; ¾ Experience network; ¾ Distribution channels; 1. The essence of experience concept Traditionally, the brand has been a centerpiece of a firm’s communication with customers. Companies communicated a bundle of benefits through their brand positioning. In the battle for market share, products and brand differentiation were carefully orchestrated toward different segments in the product space. More, the advertising industry was created in order to persuade groups of customers to buy a product, an image, a virtual benefit.

The Cluj Metropolitan Area is located in Cluj County, the north-western development region of Romania. The strategic option of polycentric territorial development was adopted on the basis of the principles outlined in the NDP (National Development Plan)- on spatial development at regional level. This involves supporting development processes within urban growth pole. The associative structure at the Cluj Metropolitan Area (CMA) was formed at the end of 2008, continuing the efforts to establish a metropolitan area with economic specificity, initiated by Cluj County Council in 2006. Communes included in Cluj Metropolitan Area are also part of different micro-regional associations with relatively homogeneous characteristics. These associations were formed at the initiative of city halls and they have legal personality. Key words: Cluj Metropolitan Area, peri-urban refuge, urban space, rural space, development strategy. INTRODUCTION The city of the future must be an intelligent one, mostly named smart city, whose development is based on the exploitation of intellectual capital towards education/self-education, innovation and economic development among environment-friendly sectors of activity. Nicolae BACIU, Gheorghe ROŞIAN, Octavian-Liviu MUNTEAN, Vlad MĂCICĂŞAN, Viorel ARGHIUŞ, Radu MIHĂIESCU More specifically, municipal development should be based on high quality drinking water resources, appropriate waste management, improved air quality and appropriate hazard and risk management in order to maintain a clean and safe living environment.
