Titlul lucrarii: THE EDUCATION ROLE FOR THE YOUNG PEOPLE INSERTION IN THE ACTUAL LABOR MARKET
Autor(i): Aceleanu Mirela Ionela
Rezumat: Business leaders, politicians and academic researchers agree that in a world where materials, technology and even know-how are widely available and easily transportable, the factor which makes the significant difference is people. These are important times for education in all the countries. Therefore, Romania has to take into account the fact that the economy performances and the ability to stand against the international competing pressures, especially under the integration circumstances are directly related to the quality of the human factor and to the structural modification of the labour force. In this respect, an important role in attaining these objectives play the actions aiming the increase of the labour force training level, concomitantly with the re-qualification and re-orientation thereof depending on the existing and predictable demand on the labour market. The European context requires the necessity for Romania to adapt itself to the conditions of the new economy and to the knowledge society, in which the competing advantage is obtained by innovation and by a government management able and decided to increase the aggregate efficiency (economic, social, ecological) of the whole labour potential of the country.

Titlul lucrarii: MARKET, MARKET ECONOMY, CAPITALISM AND POST-CAPITALISM
Autor(i): Aurel Negucioiu
Rezumat: Through the present we have enrolled at the debate that takes place nowadays, practically on all the meridians and the parallels of the planet, regarding the situation of the contemporary society, the economic context of the world, at the most important characteristics of this, and, not in the last place, at the drifts and its perspectives.
We are interested first of all by the way in which the economic situation of the contemporary world is regarded in thought and theory in practice. We want to confront some of the most important theories with the realities of the economic life. And this because nowadays we experience one of the biggest paradoxes of the scientific knowledge. Even though today we are the witnesses of the deepest worldwide scientific revolution, even though the legacy of knowledge has grown considerably, mankind is facing a bigger number than ever of major problems for which there are no solutions. The number of uncertainties has become very big and it is in continuous and rapid augmentation. The real economy has known grate progresses. In the same time it is full of contradictions, discrepancies and unbalanced, crises and other kinds of perturbations. The models of growth and development are doubted, some hopes generated by the market proved to be illusions and even myths. The appearances generated and still generate utopias, but also deceptions.
Therefore, our belief is that science with its proved and provable realities form the УcompassФ with which the society guides its boat on the insurgent waves of time.

Autor(i): Baldan Cristina, Neacsu Madalina
Rezumat: The employment, but also the efficient use of the available work resources is directly connected to the work market. It is an element that can not be separated from the other elements of the work market, especially from unemployment, because if one deals with them separately, one can not cover all the aspects, particularities and effects on the work factor. There are many causes for unemployment, causes that are to be found both at the macroeconomic level and at the microeconomic level. In most of the cases, in an analysis that aims at finding the causes that have generated the unemployment, many characteristics of unemployment are taken into account and they are analysed as УtypesФ of unemployment.

Rezumat: Starting from selfknowing and the law of correspondence (the behaviour from the outside of one person is the reflection of its inside feelings) the authors try to define the meaning of proactivity. It is underlined that as we have the quality to be human beings we are responsible for our lives. The proactive persons do not blame the environment or the circumstances to justify their behaviour. As it was implanted in the literature of management, the meaning of proactivity is based on initiative, on responsibilities and actions; this gives priority to values in front of any feelings.

Autor(i): Anca Dodescu, Ioana Pop Cohut
Rezumat: In the Bihor County has been created in the last years the ДmythФ of a very low unemployment rate (values under the EU average). Trans-border migrations, the existence of an important labor force in the agricultural sector, especially in the case of subsistence agriculture are just a few aspects behind this myth. The long term unemployment is also an important aspect that needs a realistic investigation. The necessary and inevitable reformation of the regional economy will determine in the immediate future major challenges in the employment sector. The present work aims, besides the investigation of the theoretical and operational approach of the long term unemployment in Romania and EU, to analyze the apparently favorable situation of the long term unemployment in Bihor County on the last three years, with the purpose of identifying the real problems and to do the delineation of a strategy that could determine active measures adapted to the situations and to the individual needs identified. The work presents preliminary research results from the УeWork todayФ, Ц project financed through PHARE 2005 Programme in order to adapt/orient the active labor force at the requirements of the informational society. The data used have been offered by virtue of an accord of collaboration, in the mentioned project, by the Bihor County Agency for Employment.

Rezumat: The popularity of the Internet changes the way the travel business is conducted, changing the patterns of traditional distribution of tourism services and products. The Internet represents a tool for travel agencies but can also be a powerful weapon against the traditional distribution. The process of breaking the usual distribution channels is known as disintermediation. Nowadays, in the travel industry, the majority of the travel agencies and tour operators have developed into Уbrick-and-clickФ organizations Ц traditional operators who expanded into the e-commerce area, named cybermediaries. The competition between travel intermediaries is based on the need to reach the clients as directly and fast as possible, and the Internet comes to fulfill this issue. Suppliers attempt to use the Internet as a device to promote their products and services directly to end-users and thus try to avoid the commissions paid to intermediaries.

Titlul lucrarii: THE BOUNDARIES OF THE FIRM. THE CASE OF OIL INDUSTRY IN ROMANIA
Autor(i): Dudian Monica, Trasca Daniela, Mitrache Andreea, Georgescu Adriana
Rezumat: The economic theory of the firm has met an exponential growth in the last decades different from the traditional neoclassical approach. In the first part of the paper we are skimming through the most spread approaches, namely the theory of incomplete contracts and evolutionary school. In the second part we apply the explications on integration provided by the economics of transaction costs with an example on the oil industry in Romania. A brief qualitative analysis reaches out the conclusion that cutting transaction and agency costs is one of the factors that leads to integration within the studied sector.

Autor(i): Florea Adrian, Maghear Diana Claudia
Rezumat: Increasingly, immigration policies tend to favor the entry of skilled workers, raising substantial concerns among sending countries. The СrevisionistТ approach to the analysis of the brain drain holds that such concerns are largely unwarranted. Sustained migratory flows may be associated with an equally large flow of remittances, but also, migrants may return home after having acquired a set of productive skills. Finally, the ability to migrate abroad may boost the incentive to acquire skills by home residents.

Titlul lucrarii: THE ROMANIAN BUREAUCRATIC SYSTEM OF THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONS
Autor(i): Francu Laurentiu Gabriel, Paicu Claudia Elena
Rezumat: In this paper I would like to present a few links between bureaucracy and economy. First of all the bureaucracy is always a cost to society, but this cost may be accepted insofar as it makes social order possible, and maintains it by enforcing the rule of law. On the other hand the bureaucrats are having a lot of access to much public information, but they are not always transmitting the information further to the citizens. Unfortunately they are the only ones who can transmit this informationÑ‚ÐЩs and in this case we can talk about the monopole over the public informationÑ‚ÐЩs. Also, in this paper I would like to present the problems that a businessman can have to invest in Romania because of the suffocating bureaucracy and the approvals that is obligated to get from the public administrations.

Autor(i): Georgescu Adriana, Dudian Monica
Rezumat: The objective of this paper is a complete analysis of the Romanian Capital Market. In this respect we choose the УPESTФ and the УSWOTФ Analyses, which give the possibility of a complete overview from the perspective of the Political, Economic, Social and Technological factors, which are classified as Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats in a SWOT Analysis. The result of the analyses certifies that since the beginning of 2004 the Romanian Capital Market registered a sustained positive evolution. The main cause of this evolution was the acceleration of the liberalisation process of the whole Romanian market. The European Legislation introduces new rules in order to protect investors, safeguard market integrity by establishing harmonised requirements governing the activities of authorised intermediaries and promote fair, transparent, efficient and integrated financial markets, factors which will have a further positive impact on the capital market.

Autor(i): Glavan Bogdan, Anghel Flavia, Bucur Cristiana
Rezumat: Studies on the importance of monetary stability for the achievment of sound economic environment have always been among the most searched economic works. The experience of last decades illustrates the fact that low inflation has not proved to be a hedge against financial instability. The question is if there is a trade off or contradiction between monetary stability and financial stability. Perhaps the most important lesson that need to be drawn from recent episodes of financial instability is that monetary authorities are much more impotent when it comes to prevent crises than we thought they are.

Rezumat: Rezumat: . The enlargement of the European Union by the entry of 10 new Member States in 2004 and another two in 2007 led to a significant rise of the economic regional disparities both in absolute and in relative terms. There are considerable and persistent regional contrasts between the old and the new Member States, although many of the regions with a low GDP per inhabitant in the new Member States are catching up fast due to a higher dynamics of economic development. There are some regions under EU-27 average growth rates of GDP per inhabitant, all them belonging to three NMS: Romania, Czech Republic and Bulgaria. Disparities in the levels of development in the enlarged European Union imply the need for assistance on the least developed regions and Member States, by means of an appropriate allocation of structural and cohesion funds.

Rezumat: There are many factors which explain the origin and existence of institutions. One such factor refers to controversial human nature and also to the idea that each individual is a sum of pluses and minuses, of challenges and opportunities. Additionally, it is well-known that due to human nature, a strong negative tendency at the personal level cannot be neglected. Is there a solution to the undesired negativity which is within us? Adam Smith found it! It is the free market. Mises, Hayek, Kirzner, Buchanan, Hazlitt and others offer similar explanations; as well as all advocates of new institutionalism. The paper discusses the non-institutional contribution to this issue.

Rezumat: Global trends and priorities are changing so that, nowadays, the biggest challenge for tourism is to be both competitive and long lasting, taking into consideration the fact that, on a long-term basis, competitiveness depends on durability. Moreover, climate changes represent nowadays a fundamental aspect that requires tourism industry to diminish its activities that contribute to pollution and destinations to comply with the demand and the types of tourism they provide. A proper balance between tourists wellbeing, natural and cultural environment needs, as well as destinations and companies development and competitiveness calls for a global and integrated political approach, where all interested parties should share the same objectives: economic development, social equality and cohesion, protection of natural environment and culture.

Rezumat: The paper aims at critically analysing components, gains and costs of the economic action in the field of high education. Some cultural and national conditions and determinatives are shown. Starting from some didactic and knowledge principle, analysis is raising questions in the European integrated knowledge based economy, highlighting some actual aspects of the Romanian recently reformed high educational system (in comparison with the usual in Western education). In a correlative approach and in a multi-disciplinary view, special important features of the educational system in the market economy, European challenges and potential effects of some issues are considered, with their impact on our future within the European Union. Interesting and paradox conclusions concerning the natural regulation logics, corruption and lessons for improving the coherence of the reform processes result.

As a reflection of that certain interdependence, it may be considered as a necessity the on-going process of economic lifeТs globalization under the influence of impact reflection and the importance within the invisible commerce and the adopting of certain strategies within the economic policies on a world-wide scale oriented towards the deepening of the globalization process that can include the liberalization of the invisible commerce as the only contemporary civilised means of growth.

Autor(i): Marinas Marius-Corneliu, Socol Cristian, Socol Aura-Gabriela
Rezumat: In this study we have analyzed the evolution of the EU-15 labour productivity in the last years to identify the structural problems of the European economy. According to statistical data, the productivity per hour has decreased from 2% in 1981-1995 to 1.6% in the 1995-2000 period and then to only 1.3% in 2000-2006. The main causes of the productivity slowdown refer to lower investment,which caused a smaller increase of the capital stock and to smaller growth rate of total factor productivity. In the last thirteen years, labour productivity growth in Europe was below the level from United States, which leads to larger gap between the two economies.

Titlul lucrarii: ON SCIENTIFIC IMPOSSIBILITY OF OPTIMAL TAXATION
Autor(i): Cosmin Marinescu
Rezumat: The idea is to discover the economic science potential to ДprescribeФ an optimal taxation, both in taxation system (progressive vs. flat tax) and in taxation burden. I am going to demonstrate the myths of many popular ideas from the economic theory and public opinion: on the one side, that flat tax is the best way against fiscal discrimination and welfare redistribution in society, and on the other side, that flat tax is the modern source of economic prosperity. As any other social product, taxation must be considered, first of all, from ethical point of view. In Murray RothbardТs terms, ДOur conclusions are twofold: (1) that economics cannot assume any principle of just taxation, and that no one has successfully established any such principles; and (2) that the neutral tax, which seems to many a valid ideal, turns out to be conceptually impossible to achieve. Economists must therefore abandon their futile quest for the just, or the neutral, taxФ.

Autor(i): Mattoscio Nicola, Colantonio Emiliano, Carlei Vittorio
Rezumat: The recent enlargements to new Member States are challenging steps forward in the development of the European Union (EU). Such developments, together with the achievement of a single market, require a new approach to the Knowledge economics. Nowadays, the concept of Knowledge as a source of economic development gains popularity, giving rise to the term УKnowledge Based EconomiesФ. On the basis of the growing importance of the knowledge, it may be said that only those economies could compete internationally in near future who would develop and integrate the basic ingredients of Knowledge into their economic systems and models: research and development (R&D) activities, human capital, degree of openness to international trade and information and communication technologies (ICT) diffusion. Keeping in mind this view, the aim of the paper is to analyze clusters and distances existing among the EUТs member by using the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) artificial neural network methodology. The results seem to confirm the goodness of the underlying theoretical paradigm

Because it is an information-rich industry, it depends on finding and developing new means to distribute travel and hospitality products and services, marketing information to consumers, and providing comfort and convenience to travelers. Also, consumers are constantly seeking new sources of information to help them make decisions before purchasing travel services to make their trips more satisfying. Much more travelers use the Internet to plan and book their trips in the recent years.

Rezumat: The aim of this study is to emphasize features and peculiarities of the European Union integration theory expansion towards incumbent countries like Romania. The political, economic and social challenges are perceived more intensely by our country, which will domestically perceive, at economic and financial levels, the effects of enlargement. The relation between EU accession in january 2007 and the effects towards economic growth, future labour market, financial and monetary policy, economic convergence and other economic variables (GDP per capita, current account, trade balance, exchange rate, consumer prices, inflation rate etc) are very important and I try to be persuasive in this direction.

Autor(i): Pohoata Ion, Iacobuta Andreea-oana
Rezumat: In new institutionalistsТ analysis, the transaction costs are essential in explaining the origin of private property; however, this aspect is not that obvious in old institutionalistsТ works. But even if they did not emphasize on this issue, they created a theoretical-explanatory background used and enriched with logical arguments and numerous examples by the new institutionalists in order to point out that it is not possible to explain the origin of property rights without taking into account the transaction costs theory.

Autor(i): Popa Raluca Andreea
Rezumat: The adhesion and integration of Romania into the European Union represents a challenge for the investment in human capital and implicitly in education. It is the human capital that is responsible for the competitiveness of the economy hence it has to reach a high level of qualification in order to cut down the unemployment rate to raise labor productivity and to provide a greater mobility of the labor force against the background of the integration into the European Union. The investment in human capital is full of benefits both for the individuals and for strengthening economic, social and territorial cohesion.

Titlul lucrarii: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSPORT SERVICES AS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE TOURISM SERVICES
Autor(i): Popescu Delia, State Olimpia, Marin-Pantelescu Andreea
Rezumat: If we compared the economic system with a human being we could say transports are its throbbing blood. Without these services the economic development of the century that just ended would not have been possible. Transport plays an important social role also in meeting the travel and communication needs for most people. The transportation represents also a basic tourism service, without which the journey cannot be made.The services we look at have also a negative side, as they are activities causing significant harm to the environment. One example is tourist transportation, mostly road and air transportation, with a negative impact due both to emissions and to the high level of sound pollution. Thus, in 2005, of the 5839.4 thousand arrivals (foreign travelers coming to Romania), 75.9% have used road transportation and 15.7% air transportation (5.2% Ц rail transport and 3.2 % Ц water transport) As for the Romanian citizensТ travels abroad, of the 7139.8 departures in 2005, 84.1% used road transportation, 12.3% air transportation, and only 3.1% rail and 0.5% water. In 2006 the number of foreign travelers coming to Romania was 6037 thousand arrivals, and the departures for the Romanian citizens were 8906. Sustainable development is a concept that can be implemented only by striking a balance between economic and social development and environment protection. Therefore, transportation Ц of both goods and people Ц should reach this balance, which can be achieved only through a thorough knowledge of the system, paving the way to identifying viable solutions for mitigating the pollution caused by transport without hurting economic development.

Just that the exacerbation of their wish to obtain substantial gains, especially when the dividends are distributed in the form of free shares, makes them overlook two regularities that exist in this field: the increase of dividends has to be continuous, and to not have big fluctuations, and the decisions taken in this field do not have to infringe on the self-regulatory capacity of the capital market.

Rezumat: The energy security is a growing concern both of the european governments, and of Brussels. The European officials have been working on a strategy that should ensure the energy security of the Union. Some of the main courses of action are as follows: increasing the energy output from regenerative resources, cutting down on the dependence upon Russia by finding alternative suppliers, and interconnecting the shipment routes. Romania must act as such in order to face the domestic economic challenges. An increase in the quota of energy derived from regenerative resources of the total energy output will be sustained by important investments in the hydro-energy and eolian field. Another top priority for Romania is to interconnect the shipment routes for hydrocarbons at the European and regional level.

Specific ratios for balneary tourism, which include both medical efficiency and cost efficiency medical assistance ratios, refer to the economic efficiency of the medical activity in balneary sanatoria. Social efficiency of the balneary tourism may fail to estimate due to the exclusively qualitative features of the activity. Social efficiency is reflected by the increase in labor productivity: formulas in the literature refer to the estimate of labor increase which depends on the period of medical leave before and after balneary treatment.

Titlul lucrarii: THE ANALYSIS OF EQUITY-EFFICIENCY TRADE-OFF IN THE EUROPEAN UNION ECONOMY
Autor(i): Socol Cristian, Socol Aura Gabriela, Marinas Marius-Corneliu
Rezumat: The European UnionТs economic evolution for the last sixty years is specific to the long term stages of the economic cycle, of Kondratieff type. The economic expansion period has been characterized by a higher efficiency level (growth in productivity, in the labour occupation degree) which favoured the reducing of the inequalities related to incomes through the redistribution process. The economic recession stage showed that, under the terms of an increased unemployment, of a low aggregate demand and of a less flexible aggregate supply, the economic efficiency level is relatively lower. On these conditions, the providing of social equity (of the cohesion) will affect negatively the efficiency degree, fact which will extend the period of economic recession within The European Union.

The economic recession stage showed that, under the terms of an increased unemployment, of a low aggregate demand and of a less flexible aggregate supply, the economic efficiency level is relatively lower. On these conditions, the providing of social equity (of the cohesion) will affect negatively the efficiency degree, fact which will extend the period of economic recession within The European Union.

Titlul lucrarii: WHAT IS WRONG WITH OUR SCHOOLS? A GUIDE TO EDUCATION REFORM
Autor(i): Staicu Gabriel, Marinescu Cosmin, Pana Marius
Rezumat: The aim of this paper is to analize an alternative institutional arrangement of the education sector. As we can easily observe, the recently attempts of institutional reform acoording to European standards are not the best way to meet political targets like: better education, opportunities for everyone, boost the capacity for creativity and innovation. The weak capacity of education to stimulate creativity and human capital accumulation is a (natural) consequence of lack of incentives among state-run-schools. Without taking into consideration school choice and a real competition among educational services providers, the Romanian education system will continue to have various functioning difficulties.

Rezumat: Globalization is the historical process of the worldwide integration of the national economies, through social relations and economic transactions, which unites countries, banks, financial institutions etc. Through globalization people of different citizenship, language, religion and cultural are involved in solving together various global issues, like the fight against terrorism. On the other hand globalization is accompanied by the worldwide spreading of criminal network, which proved to be more flexible than that of the formal economy of the countries. But the obligation of these democratic states, together with the international community is to reply to the challenge of the organized crime, in order to reduce or even eliminate this phenomenon, because criminal organizations menace the national suzerainty and the authority of the states. The activity of the organized crime penetrates everywhere that it can gain a profit, and because of the monopole position in the areas, it can raise the prices and thus the earnings. Nowadays criminal network are more flexible (micro organizations) to assure their secret character in order to face the police and judicial attacks.

Autor(i): Serban-Oprescu George-Laurentiu, Serban-Oprescu Anca-Teodora
Rezumat: Every time when a crisis casts shadow over the economy, all the economists seem to remember about Уlong forgottenФ Keynesian theory. Although just a few economists think about themselves as traditional Keynesians, the economic policies inspired by Lord Keynes are still alive. For instance, the fundamental goal of any central bank is to avoid inflation which means to assure prices stability. Is not this the Keynes ideal: economic progress with full employment and fixed prices? LetТs take a look of the current subprime crisis. The best solution found by FED is to cut the interest rate and to cheapen the loans. If Keynes will be alive he surely would be delighted by the FEDТs acts. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Keynesian theory of prices in order to find the extent in which the solutions found by Keynes are still valid.

Rezumat: One of the main coordinates of the contemporary economic theory is Ц and there is no doubt about it Ц represented by the problem of the sustainable development, in the wider context of the theories concerning the economic growth and development. These theories do not belong exclusively to the contemporary thinking, for Spengler asserts that Уthe first elements of a theory of the economic growth can be found in the mercantilist and physiocratic worksФ. In the meantime they multiplied and enriched themselves both regarding the content, the ways of analysing and approaching, the presupposed solutions and regarding the conceptual exactness, the used indicators and the pointing out of the interdependencies among these aspects and those related to them.

Rezumat: The social protection is a fundamental component of the European type of society. It can be understood as an expression of the set of collective changes meant to protect people against some social well defined risks. The functioning of the social protection systems supposes important costs and, therefore, the corresponding allocation of financial resources. At present, the costs of the social protection engross and stimulate an important proportion of the financial and human resources at the European statesТ level. Thus, on the whole of the European countries UE-25, the costs of the social protection represent more than a quarter from the Gross Domestic Product (28% in 2005), almost half of the public budgetary expenditures, with very important variations from one country to another.

Titlul lucrarii: THE GROWTH OF ECONOMIC COMPETITION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ECONOMY BASED ON KNOWLEDGE
Autor(i): Vechiu Camelia, Enache Elena, Morozan Cristian
Rezumat: Once with its integration in European Union, RomaniaТs entire development plan will have in view its convergence with European economic space, both at nominal and especially at real level. This process of gap recovery presupposes that in the period of years 2007-2013, Romania should have high economic rhythm, while microeconomic balance is still kept stable. The key factor in determining the economic growth, under the conditions of entering a market characterized by strong competitive forces, is the growth of economic competition. Furthermore, the development of competitive economic advantages must be a constant process to take into consideration the European tendencies, but also the globalization process in its whole. RomaniaТs future depends on its ability to fulfill the objectives, strategies, policies we have at present through the approval of strategic documents either they are called plans, frame Ц programs etc. It depends on the capacity of organizational management to create projects, to have good innovative ideas, to have, in fact, a strategically view on a medium and long term for its own organization and for their registering in the national Ц socio Ц economic framework.

Titlul lucrarii: CREDIT SCREENING AND THE LIMITS OF TRANSPARENCY AND COMMUNICATION IN ROMANIAN BANKING SYSTEM
Autor(i): Zamfir Ana-Maria, Hornoiu Remus Ion
Rezumat: In this paper, we examine the influence of contract costs on the pricing of bank loans. We find that the loan spread depends on a bankТs screening and monitoring incentives through transparency and communication, which varies across differentially regulated classes of banks. This leads to significant price disparities in the loan market. Better information about borrowerТs type encourages tighter lending standards and competition in laxity can arise with multiple banks. Both better information ex ante and stronger legal protection ex post are shown to facilitate the entry of low-cost outside competitors into credit markets. When banks can strategically adjust the test characteristics by investing resources in the screening technology, we show that credit markets are not easily contestable.

Autor(i): Zdorovetchi Cristina
Rezumat: Corruption is a highly sensitive issue now, after Romania has adhered to the European Union. In the current context, a significant number of sectors pertaining to the Romanian social, economic and political life display certain vulnerability to corruption. According to the data resulting after the national anti-corruption and post-adhesion strategies, the service sector is among the sectors and activities which represent specific risk factors. This paper sets to present the phenomenon of corruption in Romania, since corruption may be seen as a complex social issue, perceived by honest social segments as a very serious and dangerous phenomenon that attacks the economic and political bases of society, endangers the stability of state institutions and affects the living standard of the population by unjustifiably increasing social costs.

Titlul lucrarii: GREEN CERTIFICATES MARKET
Autor(i): Zugravu Paul, Gherman Anca-Maria
Rezumat: The steep economic growth in emerging countries (China, India, Russia, Brazil) leads to a rise in the world demand of energy; in the short run, the predictable result is the a rise of prices, but in the long run, the basic problem is the limited amount of energetic resources that the planet can offer. Discovering new fields of oil, gas or coal may hardly postpone only with a few decades the deadline for the depletion of these resources, but it is obvious that it is not a solution for one hundred years from now on. Even if we ignore market constraints, this limitation is inevitable, so the necessity of discovering alternative sources seems the only valid approach.

Autor(i): Condrea Elena, Popovici Veronica, Bucur Crina Raluca, MIREA MARIOARA
Rezumat: The realization of the necessary balance between the interest to create and consolidate a multinational unique market and to insure the consumer’s protection is a hard task for any state and multinational authority. Its critical point consists of the ways through which a certain country succeeds in reconciling its need to open its borders with that of protecting the consumers, in the conditions in which the ensemble of national laws, usually, tend to restrain free commerce, presenting differences in the protection levels in different countries. In what concerns the Consumers’ protection policy elaborated for Romania, respectively the law alignment to the community’s aquis from this domain, we can say that that it registers slow progress, although, in the purpose of the EU joining, Romania has opened and closed the chapter regarding the consumer’s protection since July 2001, without needing to ask for a transition period or derogations from the community’s aquis.

Titlul lucrarii: THE ANTITRUST EFFECTS OF THE FIXED CONVERSION RATE. THE CASE OF GERMAN BANKS
Autor(i): Dima Alina Mihaela, Pantea Carmen
Rezumat: The establishment of a common market is one of the fundamental goals of the Treaty of European Communities (art 2 EC). Anti-competitive behavior is forbidden in order to ensure that competition in the internal market is not distorted or negatively influenced (art 3 lit g EC) and to achieve a high degree of competitiveness and convergence of economic performance. The European competition rules support and complement the common market and play an essential role in integrating the market. In order to preserve this, in 2001 the European Commission applied a fine amounting to EUR 100.8 million to a group of five important banks from Germany, which have agreed to settle a commission of 3% for the currency exchange operations. The present paper discusses the implications of this decision from two important points of view: the infringement of competition law and the consequences related to Euro introduction.

Our country manifests a low interest for Traditional Specialty Guaranteed, Protected Geographical Indications and Protected Designation of Origin illustrated by the lack of dairy products registrant for this kind of label.

The strategies developed should take into account these factors that may stay in the way of efficiently going through the transformation process from small-sized companies to large companies. This involves accepting the challenge of the increase in the dynamic competitiveness.

Autor(i): Rabontu Cecilia Irina
Rezumat: The real recuperative process of the gaps can be sustainable and durative only under the conditions of a real convergence which considers that making compatible the economical structure with the one of the other European country has priority.
As opposed to the industrial sector, where the structural convergence is in a continuous process of development, having a satisfactory intensity, the tertiary sector doesnТt enjoy the same privileges, being able to find here the biggest gap from a macro-economic point of view.

Rezumat: The explosion of digital connectivity, the improvements in communications and the enforced global competition are revolutionizing the way business is performed. A new, complex and rapidly changing economic order has emerged based on disruptive innovation, discontinuities, abrupt and seditious change. In this new landscape, knowledge constitutes the most important factor, while learning together with the increased reliability and trust, is the most important process (B.A. Lundvall and B. Johnson: 23-42). These trends suggest that private and public organizations have to reinvent themselves in order to achieve strategic competitive advantage. The extant literature highlights the great potential of ICT tools for operational efficiency, cost reduction, quality of services, convenience, innovation and learning in private and public sectors.

Autor(i): Sipos Gabriela Lucia
Rezumat: A strong motivation to replace the comparative advantage theory with the competitive advantage theory is given by the significant change of the present economic conditions comparing with the old conditions that inspired the competitive advantage issues. The dynamic character of the market competition and the fact that, in the present, the competitiveness is located to enterpriseТs level and not to the level of the national economy are some important argues that sustain the necessity and the opportunity to move the economic thinking from the comparative advantage theory to the competitive advantage theory. In the past, the comparative advantage of an economy was given by the natural resources, by the geographical position or by the specific features of products or services. Nowadays the competitive advantage is created through innovation by all its forms.

Rezumat: Tax haven companies have extremely different configurations and sizes. Some are incorporated as mutual associations, others as joint-stock companies. A captive company performs the functions of a traditional insurance company (submission, documentation, legal positions, trading, investment, damage settlement, etc) but some of them are actually transferred to foreign experts or advisers.
The most important advantage of such companies is the anonymity and the secrecy that come along.

Rezumat: Customer satisfaction is an important measurement that has to be taken on a regularly basis in every tourism facility in the country. All the tourism businesses rely on their customers and the measurement of their degree of satisfaction is of a major importance to the location. Even small locations should conduct at least once a year surveys in order to find out where they are, how do they work and what should be done in the near future in order to improve. Permanent improvement is a key-word for the today tourism business, as the today customers seem to be more and more informed, more and more conscious of their rights to receive a certain level of service quality and more and more aware of their importance in the tourism businessТs economy.
Human resources will play an outmost important role in the development or the failure of the tourism business of the near future in Romania. In order to maintain loyalty toward a location or another, the management and the owners will have to develop loyalty maintaining programmes that will permanently monitor the guests and their needs, striving to permanently improve in order to be successful.

Titlul lucrarii: ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR SEASONAL TRENDS OF ROMANIAN FOREIGN TRADE
Autor(i): Boboila Cristea
Rezumat: The statistical mathematical functions offer a variety of options for analyzing economic trends. The practical method of selecting one or the other of these functions is a question whose solution presupposes the prior study of the chronological series being analyzed, followed by the elucidation of these aspects: the element of randomness in trends; components of a trend (the trend itself, the seasonality, the cyclicity, the autoregression, and the residual tendency); the trend in the context of the interdependencies between multiple factors.
We will study whether or not the trend in foreign trade are characterized by a marked seasonal aspect. For the phenomena and processes whose development is related to the season of the year or to some other period, complex statistical mathematical functions that, as a rule, treat all of the above-mentioned aspects are used.

Autor(i): Covrig Mihaela, Serban Radu
Rezumat: In a virtual organization directed on the insurance business, the estimations of the risk process and of the ruin probability are important concerns: for researchers, at the theoretical level, and for the management of the company, as these influence the insurer strategy. We consider the evolution over an extended period of time of the insurer surplus process. In this paper, we present some methods for the estimation of the ruin probability and for the evaluation of a reserve fund. We discuss the ruin probability with respect to: the parameters of the individual claim distribution, the load factor of premiums and the intensity parameter of the number of claims process. We analyze the model in which the premiums are computed according to the mean value principle. Also, we attempt the case when the initial capital is proportional to the expected value of the individual claim. We give numerical illustration.

Titlul lucrarii: PROGNOSIS OF MONTHLY UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION THROUGH METHODS BASED ON ECONOMETRIC MODELS
Autor(i): Gagea Mariana, Balan Christiana Brigitte
Rezumat: In this paper we propose the prognosis of the unemployment rate in the European Union through the Box-Jenkins method and the TRAMO/SEATS method as well as the detection of the method which proves to provide the best results. The monthly unemployment rate in the European Union is affected by seasonal variations of deterministic and stochastic nature. The prognosis through the Box-Jenkins nature supposes the separate consideration of seasonal variations, according to their specific nature. The stochastic seasonal variations are modelled and prognosticated simultaneously with the other components of the time series, based on the generating stochastic process. The prognosis of the monthly unemployment rate in the European Union through the TRAMO/SEATS methods is done by aggregating the individual prognoses of the components of the time series, obtained according to the stochastic processes models that generate them.

Titlul lucrarii: CHANGES IN ROMANIAТS POPULATION DISTRIBUTION ON LOCALITIES IN 1990-2007 PERIOD
Autor(i): Harja Eugenia
Rezumat: The analysis presents synthetically the results of a study concerning population distribution on territorial- administrative units from Romania during the last 17 years. Enforcing statistical methods, such as: central tendencies of medium indexes, variation analysis, concentration, on data basis concerning the 3175 territorial – administrative units, the main changes in time were highlighted: on one side the emphasized decrease of population effective, and on the other side the appearance of new localities by crumbing the already existing ones, rankТs change for the main municipalities from the country, the establishing of new urban localities even though in many cases not even the old ones fulfilled the quantitative and qualitative criteria for receiving this status. By using relevant diagrams, comparative for the two extreme years, both last period changes and population concentration phenomenon were emphasized.

Titlul lucrarii: THE INFLUENCE OF FINAL CONSUMPTION ON EMPLOYMENT IN ROMANIA
Autor(i): Herman Emilia
Rezumat: The economic theory and practice proves that between the final consumption, the main component of aggregate demand and the employment level in a country, as a rule a directly proportional relationship is set. In the present study, first of all, we want to outline the main influence factors of consumption, and then to emphasize the impact of consumption over employment in Romania, in 1990-2006. According to our research it results that in Romania, a direct and significant relationship cannot be set between dynamics of consumption and dynamics of employment, and hence we may state that the KeynesТs economic theory is not valid as regards the relationship between consumption and employment.

Titlul lucrarii: MACROECONOMIC MODELS OF ECONOMIC GROWTH BASED ON INVESTMENTS
Autor(i): Popa Suzana
Rezumat: The aggregate models of macroeconomic growth are instruments to research the influence of investments (the main factor of economic growth) on the economic phenomena and processes. They are economic and mathematical models that show the studied phenomenon and the theory to develop it. There are many models that deal with the direct correlation between investments and economic growth; the indirect correlation uses the fixed capital. This papers deals with the models developed by Keynes, Harrod, Domar, Clarke and Solow that refer to the impact of investments (as a material support) on the economic growth.

Rezumat: The paper points out the tendencies in the dynamics of inflation from Romania in the context of the integration in the European Union. After the instruments and the computation methodology for the inflation have been presented, one has also to carry out a diagnosis of the evolution of this important macroeconomic indicator and of its components, in the pre-accession period. All these facts are analysed according to the existence of some annual targets regarding the inflation. There are elaborated some predictions for the post-accession period followed by an analysis of the real evolution of the dynamic of the indicator according to the predicted values. In this paper there were also used advanced computer programs for the processing and analysis of the statistical data.

Titlul lucrarii: AUTOREGRESSIVE MODELS FOR ANALYSIS OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN ROMANIA
Autor(i): Sipos Ciprian, Boleantu Mihai
Rezumat: On the base of significant fluctuations of the international financial markets, the international investment position of Romania has an increasing importance in assuring the financial stability. The Romanian National Bank reserves are increasing as a result of exchanging the minimum reserves into foreign currencies made by banks and of the privatization revenues. The international reserve has been negatively influenced by the payments made in the foreign debt service account and by the foreign payment forms redeemed by the Public Finance Ministry. This paper offers to analyze the evolution and impact of the foreign investments in any form whatsoever, on the Romanian economy with the help of autoregressive econometrical models. These models shall refer to all foreign investments elements: direct investments of non-residents, portfolio investment and other categories of foreign investments as well as bank deposits or external short-term, medium and long-term credits.

Titlul lucrarii: THE IMPACT OF CULTURAL-CREATIVE INDUSTRIES ON THE ECONOMIC GROWTH Ц A QUANTITATIVE APPROACH
Autor(i): Titan Emilia, Voineagu Vergil, Todose Monica
Rezumat: Culture is a powerful tool to communicate values and to promote objectives of public interest that are broader than wealth creation. The economy of culture entails both cultural and creative sectors. It has to be noted that, along with the development of the information and communication technology (ICT) sector, the contribution of culture to the economy has gradually been acknowledged, in particular with the development of the cultural industries. One way of measuring the economy of culture focuses on the value added to the economy. Also, we present several statistical indicators that quantify the dimension of the cultural-creative field, and identify an econometrical multiple model that reveals the relationship between some of them. In the article it is applied the analysis of variance method in order to identify the existence of significant differences between geographical and between linguistic-cultural European regions, according to the values of some of the statistical indicators.

Autor(i): Turturean Ciprian-Ionel, Jemna Danut-Vasile
Rezumat: The economic development involves, for a short time, a deficit of the external paymentsТ balance (EPB). Studying the evolution of the BEP sold provides useful information regarding the economic development degree rate. An invariable deficit which has acceptable limits and correlated with an investment policy in production sectors could cause a long economic growth. Studying the relation between the growth rate of GDP and the growth deficit of EPB for the 1996-2006 periods confirms this hypothesis.

Rezumat: This paper aim was to determine the correlations between corruption, economic freedom globalization and macroeconomic development through its most representative measure GDP.
A total of 114 countries were included in this study, being simultaneously able to offer three main economic indices: Index of Economic Freedom (IEF), Index of Globalization (IG) and Index of Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI). Validated measures of associations scores (Pearson, Yule, etc) were calculated, as well as classical levels of correlations (Kendall, Spearman). All measures were significantly correlated with each other. Comparison was made between all this statistical instruments, and conclusions represent an interesting control of the liaisons between macro- economic results and the process of economic freedom, economic corruption, and globalization. Macroeconomic results decrease always with certain levels by economic dysfunction such as less of liberty in all economic activities, refusal of globalization and higher corruption perception.

One of the main causes of the youthТs access problems on the labour market is their insufficient training level. When they enter a faculty they neglect their professional training and choose to have a job on the labour market, often being blocked in a temporary and badly paid job. Romania presently holds a top position regarding the number of the unemployed youth recorder in the EUТs statistics, even though the migration of the well-trained labour force has increased.

The fact that in chaos can be found a certain precise symmetry (Feigenbaum numbers) is even more surprising. As an illustration of the ubiquity of chaos, two models among many other existing models that have chaotic features are presented here: the nonlinear feedback profit model and one model for the simulation of the exchange rate.
