China’s role in infrastructure development has the potential to contribute positively to growth and welfare in the countries along the Silk Road. KEY WORDS: infrastructure, development, growth, welfare 7 State, market and infrastructure1, 2 Vol.XVIII, No. 66 - 2012 Vol.XVIII, XXIII (78) - 2017 Infrastructure is crucial for development. It is necessary in order to liberate the creative energies of entrepreneurship. In countries at all stages of development, markets often fail to provide the necessary level of infrastructure provision. The requisite extent and nature of state involvement in infrastructure may vary between countries of different sizes and traditions, and at different points in history. The complex relationship between government provision of infrastructure provision and development was captured precisely by Adam Smith’s proposition: “The third and last duty of the sovereign or commonwealth is that of erecting and maintaining those public institutions and those public works which, though they may be in the highest degree advantageous to a great society, are, however, of such a nature that the profit could never repay the expense to any individual or small number of individuals, and which it therefore cannot be expected that any individual or small number of individuals should erect or maintain. The performance of this duty requires too very different degrees of expense in the different periods of society” (Smith 1776, vol. 2: 244). Infrastructure in China’s development Pre-modern China

Traveling around Croatia, I was stunned by its beauty. However, I noticed that there were few Chinese tourists in Croatia. How can we bring more Chinese tourists to Croatia? How can we make them happy and comfortable in Croatia? And, at the same time, how can we avoid polluting this tract of pure land? Based on first-hand research work, I make a SWOT analysis of the Chinese tourist source market of Croatia and put forward related countermeasures from the perspective of a native Chinese. The positioning of tourism in Croatia should be ingeniously packaged. I recommend developing diversified and specialized tourist products, various marketing and promotional activities, simple and flexible visa policies and regulations, and other related measures to further explore the Chinese tourist source market of Croatia. KEY WORDS: SWOT analysis, Croatia, Chinese tourist source market, sustainable tourism, direct flight 169 Introduction Vol.XVIII, No. 66 - 2012 Vol.XVIII, XXIII (78) - 2017 I worked in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, for three years. During my stay, I walked almost all around Croatia. I travelled in Dalmatia for two weeks, visiting Zadar, Šibenik, Skradin, Trogir, Split, Hvar, Korčula and Dubrovnik. I toured Istria for a week, visiting Opatija, Pula, Rovinj and Poreč.

  • Dangerous Woman Tour Studio Version Download the Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour Will Be the Pinnacle of In-Game Concerts
    dangerous woman tour studio version download The Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour will be the pinnacle of in-game concerts. Travis Scott's Astronomical performance was a good idea, but the Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour is a great idea, and one that will cement Fortnite as a cultural touchstone across both the music and video game industries. The Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour runs between August 6 and 8, with five showings set at different times across the weekend. Not only will you get a chance to watch a digital version of Ariana Grande headline a Fortnite stage to perform some of her hits, but you'll also be able to grab at least one Ariana Grande skin and other Ari-related customization items. Completing an in-game quest will get you some rewards, and just attending the Rift Tour will get you a cutesy umbrella. Last April we said that the Travis Scott Astronomical performance proved Fortnite was changing the game and music industries forever . And even though it's been quiet on the musical performance front for over a year, the Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour shows just how plugged into the moment Fortnite is. Ariana Grande is a bigger star than Travis Scott, with a Guinness World Record for most songs debuting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 under her belt - that she's coming to one of the most popular video games is a big deal. Ariana Grande in Fortnite is the perfect pop culture crossover. Period. A Grande Star. Ariana Grande is a pop culture icon who transcends the limits of the music industry.

  • Women's Fashion in Dalmatia at the End of the 18Th Century
    Please provide footnote text CHAPTER 3 Women’s Fashion in Dalmatia at the End of the 18th Century Katarina Nina Simončič Introduction This chapter aims to define the role of fashion garments as indicators of social status and a highly important aspect of visual communication among the so- cial elites in 18th-century Dalmatia. The focal point of this overview is women’s fashion. To achieve this goal, through research of historical artefacts from the Dalmatian territory, it is essential to address first the availability of sources and to explain possible problems we encountered in our attempt to reconstruct and comprehend particular historical circumstances. While preserved fashion artefacts of the privileged social class in 18th-century Dalmatia are very scarce, garments that belonged to lower classes are unavailable and can only be re- constructed from observations of travel writers or from court records. Certain fashion garments and accessories of the upper classes are currently preserved in museums in Zagreb, Split, Zadar, Sibenik and Dubrovnik. These include two women’s jackets made of red and blue silk with gold and silver bobbin lace trimmings, which belonged to the Kasandric family on the island of Hvar; fans; lace artefacts and footwear. A larger and more substantial collection of mens- wear is preserved in the Rector’s Palace in Dubrovnik. Since preserved artefacts are scarce and rarely found, they cannot provide sufficient information to re- construct the social climate of the 18th century, when garments, i.e. fashion, functioned as a status symbol. Historical records prove the continuity of a rich cultural life in Dalmatia from the Renaissance to the 18th century.

    DREAMS My Journey with Multiple Sclerosis By Kristie Salerno Kent DREAMS: MY JOURNEY WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. Copyright © 2013 by Acorda Therapeutics®, Inc. All rights reserved. Printed in the United States of America. Author’s Note I always dreamed of a career in the entertainment industry until a multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis changed my life. Rather than give up on my dream, following my diagnosis I decided to fight back and follow my passion. Songwriting and performance helped me find the strength to face my challenges and help others understand the impact of MS. “Dreams: My Journey with Multiple Sclerosis,” is an intimate and honest story of how, as people living with MS, we can continue to pursue our passion and use it to overcome denial and find the courage to take action to fight MS. It is also a story of how a serious health challenge does not mean you should let go of your plans for the future. The word 'dreams' may end in ‘MS,’ but MS doesn’t have to end your dreams. It has taken an extraordinary team effort to share my story with you. This book is dedicated to my greatest blessings - my children, Kingston and Giabella. You have filled mommy's heart with so much love, pride and joy and have made my ultimate dream come true! To my husband Michael - thank you for being my umbrella during the rainy days until the sun came out again and we could bask in its glow together. Each end of our rainbow has two pots of gold… our precious son and our beautiful daughter! To my heavenly Father, thank you for the gifts you have blessed me with.

  • Croatian Traditional Heritage Online: Status and Opportunities
    Maja Šojat-Bikić UDK 004.82:39](497.5) Zagreb City Museum 004.738.5:008](497.5) Zagreb Original scientific paper Croatia Received: May 5, 2011 [email protected] Accepted: May 16, 2011 Croatian Traditional Heritage Online: Status and Opportunities The article is based on the research of the websites of Croatian ethnographic museums, museums, associations, religious communities and private collectors who collect and preserve ethnographic materials, public libraries that have local history collections, the official websites of institutions of state administration and local self-government and tourist boards, and attempts to depict the situation of the availability of tangible and intangible traditional heritage on the Croatian web. It shows the few examples of good practice which are in most cases not the result of institutional care for tradi- tional heritage, but the work of creative individuals and associations. The results of the research are compared with the online achievements in other segments of the Cro- atian cultural heritage, and we point to the untapped communications capabilities of traditional heritage through the web as the most powerful medium for ‘storytelling’. Keywords: traditional heritage, online presentation of heritage, ethno- graphic museums, Croatia 1. Introduction Traditional heritage is a component of the national cultural heritage and is mani- fested in numerous regional and local variations. Although it is constantly subject to change, even disappearance, it is a strong underpinning of the individual and collec- tive identities. On the other hand, the communication of cultural heritage in a dig- ital form, now mostly over the Web, is a relatively new area that opens up a number of opportunities of exploration and contribution to the development of critical dis- course by applying new technologies when communicating heritage.

The publication of these first three books attests to the fact that the 2003 Convention has now reached the crucial operational phase. The successful implementation of this ground-breaking legal instrument remains one of UNESCO’s priority actions, and one to which I am firmly committed. In 2008, before my election as Director-General of UNESCO, I had the privilege of chairing one of the sessions of the Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, in Sofia, Bulgaria. This enriching experience reinforced my personal convictions regarding the significance of intangible cultural heritage, its fragility, and the urgent need to safeguard it for future generations. Rep List 2009 2.15:Layout 1 26/5/10 09:25 Page 3 It is most encouraging to note that since the adoption of the Convention in 2003, the term ‘intangible cultural heritage’ has become more familiar thanks largely to the efforts of UNESCO and its partners worldwide.
