  • Reframing Scottish Football: Strategy and the Short-Term Nature of the Football Industry
    Edinburgh Napier University Business School Reframing Scottish Football: Strategy and the short-term nature of the football industry Stephen Robertson Doctor of Business Administration A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Edinburgh Napier University, for the award of Doctor of Business Administration July 2015 “In human behavior there was always uncertainty and risk. The goal of the Oakland front office was simply to minimize the risk. Their solution wasn’t perfect, it was just better than the hoary alternative, rendering decisions by gut feeling.” Lewis (2011 p.136) Abstract Despite football being deeply entrenched in Scottish culture it is under- researched from a business perspective. This research develops a conceptual framework that views professional football clubs from a number of different perspectives. It draws on strategic management literature since this views the firm as the intersection between internal competence, customer perception and competition within an industry. A review of previous sports business research highlighted five main themes that were used to create a structure for the analysis: on-field performance, attendance, finance, the playing squad and the manager. These themes were used as frames to view the firms within the industry from a number of different perspectives. Each frame allows a different aspect of the firm to be considered singly in turn and then collectively to develop a deeper understanding of the existing frames in use within the industry. The research is based on a pragmatic philosophy that allows mixed methods to be combined to provide both an objective and subjective view of the industry. The subjective view was drawn from five interviews with senior figures within Scottish professional football.

  • Mediated Post-Soviet Nostalgia
    MEDIATED POST-SOVIET NOSTALGIA Ekaterina Kalinina MEDIATED POST-SOVIET NOSTALGIA Ekaterina Kalinina Södertörns högskola © Ekaterina Kalinina 2014 Södertörn University SE-141 89 Huddinge Cover Image: Olcay Yalçın Cover and content layout: Per Lindblom & Jonathan Robson Printed by Elanders, Stockholm 2014 Södertörn Doctoral Dissertations 98 ISSN 1652-7399 ISBN 978-91-87843-08-2 ISBN 978-91-87843-09-9 (digital) Abstract Post-Soviet nostalgia, generally understood as a sentimental longing for the Soviet past, has penetrated deep into many branches of Russian popular culture in the post-1989 period. The present study investigates how the Soviet past has been mediated in the period between 1991 and 2012 as one element of a prominent structure of feeling in present-day Russian culture. The Soviet past is represented through different mediating arenas – cultural domains and communicative platforms in which meanings are created and circulated. The mediating arenas examined in this study include television, the Internet, fashion, restaurants, museums and the- atre. The study of these arenas has identified common ingredients which are elements of a structure of feeling of the period in question. At the same time, the research shows that the representations of the past vary with the nature of the medium and the genre. The analysis of mediations of the Soviet past in Russian contemporary culture reveals that there has been a change in the representations of the Soviet past during the past twenty years, which roughly correspond to the two decades marked by the presidencies of Boris Yeltsin in the 1990s and of Vladimir Putin in the 2000s (including Dmitrii Medvedev’s term, 2008–2012).

  • State Capture BH Ext Industry Birach
    STATE CAPTURE: STATE CAPTURE IN EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRY BASED ON THE CASE STUDY OF BIRAČ March 2018 This publication has been produced with the assistance of the European Union. The contents of this publication are the sole responsibility of Transparency International BH and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the European Union. This project is supported by European Union Executive summary This report investigates state capture in Republika Srpska (RS), in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), through a case study of the process of privatisation, and subsequent illegal extraction of capital, within the extractive industries sector. More precisely, the case study is a company that is of strategic interest to a state, the alumina factory Birač, a joint stock company [Bosnian: Tvornica glinice Birač akcionarsko društvo] (Birač). The focus of the study is on those actors and mechanisms of governance through which a system, or parts of a system, are appropriated by powerful individuals, groups or networks to favour their own interests. Birač, once the biggest manufacturing export company in all the former Yugoslavia, was privatised in 2001 under a special government programme. Ukio Investment Group, which is owned by Vladimir Romanov, bought the factory for Bosnia and Herzegovina convertible mark (BAM) 10 million, even though there was a clear conflict of interest, as it was the sole adviser to the government during the process of preparing Birač for privatisation. Despite committing to invest significant funds and to keep the workers, the Lithuanian investor used its influence and connections with the government not only to extract funds from the company through its “sister companies”, and to evade the payment of taxes, but also to gain additional subsidies and benefits from the government.

An introduction by David Glen David Glen Welcome to the 19th annual financial review of the Scottish football premier league, covering the season 2006/07. Steady as she goes For the majority of the SPL clubs, financially season 2006/07 has been a stable one. For the first time in over 10 years the clubs have collectively generated a profit of £3m, a figure that was particularly assisted by some very successful trading in the transfer market with a record net gain of £19m being recorded. Celtic and Hibs led the way, recording gains of £9.4m and £6.4m respectively from the sales of the likes of Stilian Petrov, Shaun Maloney, Kevin Thomson and Scott Brown. The most profitable club was Celtic, who recorded a surplus of over £15m, boosted by the financial rewards of a very successful run to the last 16 in the Champions league. At the other end of the scale, Hearts posted the largest loss of just under £13m. A wage bill of almost £12.5m, with an income of only £10.3m is clearly not sustainable and will require some trimming going forward.
