    Newsletter No.8 For everyone interested in improving the accessibility of cultural heritage and tourism development Health Resort Druskininkai More than 220 years ago, Augustas Poniatovskis, the Grand Duke of Lithuania and the King of Poland, declared Druskininkai a healing area in his decree in 1794. However, according to historical sources, even before that, the locals had found the benefits of healing mud and mineral springs, they healed themselves and invited other people to arrive. The building of Druskininkai health resorts was started in 1954. The most important object in Druskininkai, a health resort working all year round, opened its doors in June 1960 and was equipped with 72 cabins for treatment procedures with mud. An example of recreational architecture illustrates the hybridity of the Soviet colonial culture as it combines elements of imperial neoclassicism with local folklore elements. The author of this health resort is Vsevolodas Ulitka. Granite mosaics ‘Ratnyčele’ and ‘Nemunas’ by the artist Boleslovas Klova are installed in the facade of the health resort.

  • Problems of Identifying and Regulating the Structure of the Labour Market in Depressive Lithuanian Regions
    Journal of Business Economics and Management ISSN 1611-1699 2006, Vol VII, No 4, 223–233 PROBLEMS OF IDENTIFYING AND REGULATING THE STRUCTURE OF THE LABOUR MARKET IN DEPRESSIVE LITHUANIAN REGIONS Algis Šileika 1, Daiva Andriušaitienė 2 Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Saulėtekio al. 11, LT-10223 Vilnius, Lithuania E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Received 26 June 2006, accepted 9 Spalio 2006 Abstract. In order to identify labour market problems in the depressive regions of Lithuania and to provide guiding lines in the search for their solution, it is necessary to conduct a systematic analysis of the structure of employable population encompassing the characteristics of segments of employed and unemployed persons as well as individuals not registered with the official labour market. Correlation and factor analysis of eighteen macroeconomic indicators investigating into indicators of all municipalities of the country and depressive regions separately (20 municipalities where the unemploy- ment rate exceeded the average in the country by 1,5 times in 2004) enabled evaluation of the significance of employment and unemployment indicators as well as impact thereof on other indicators chosen for the analysis to feature the trends of social and economic development on national level and in depressive regions in 1996–2004. Apart from special socio- logical research, characterization of the structure and peculiarities of labour force is confined to assumptions of logical analysis, but the invented technologies give grounds to maintain that dynamics of the employment indicator reflects the trends and outcomes of the development of economic activities only to a certain limited extent.
