The representatives of the Europe Regional Network of World Green Building Council claim that the building emissions in Europe create up to 36% of the total carbon dioxide production. Therefore, the application of ecological building materials can be one of the possible ways to reach equilibrium between the social-economic growth and green development. The main objective of this paper was to find out the approach of people in urban and rural settlements in Slovakia towards the question of green development in terms of selection of building material for the construction of a family house and their economic-social situation. The issue was mapped in Slovakia using the empirical survey in the form of a questionnaire.

Therefore, this article examines and assesses how the global financial crisis, what started in the housing sector, affected similar economic development level countries by the calculation of price to income method approach for housing bubble size estimation in the Baltic countries and Central European countries capitals. Obtained results reveal that housing prices boom mostly affected the Baltic States capitals. The largest housing bubble of all Central European capitals was formed in Warsaw. Improvement of the economic situation, rising inhabitants income, decreasing unemployment, rising prices for construction and profitability of housing investment, at the same time rising issuance of housing loans is creating a highly favourable conditions for the housing price bubble formation. Keywords: housing bubble, price to income method.

  • The Inadequate Protection of Cultural Heritage in the United States, 15 J
    THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW AMBER TEARS AND COPYRIGHT FEARS: THE INADEQUATE PROTECTION OF CULTURAL HERITAGE IN THE UNITED STATES INGRIDA R. LATOZA ABSTRACT The United States is comprised of many different cultural communities, each rich with expressions of language and custom. Cultural diversity promotes respect among individuals and harmonizes differences between communities—nationally and globally. Through the preservation of cultural heritage, diversity is maintained. Since World War II, with the exile of many from Lithuania, members of the Lithuanian-American community have strived to maintain the cultural heritage of their beloved homeland. After several decades, a Lithuanian-American cultural identity has developed, creating unique and individual traditions, adding to the cultural heritage of the United States as a whole. Most of the international community has adopted the 2003 UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage, but the United States relies on intellectual property laws, particularly the Copyright Act, to preserve cultural heritage. This comment explores the preservation of Lithuanian-American cultural heritage through the protection of copyright law with a modified standard for preserving and protecting intangible cultural heritage.
