Author : Rus Mihaela, Sandu Mihaela Luminita, Tasente Tanase |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :We can talk about public policies when a public authority - central or local - intends, with the help of a coordinated action program, to modify the economic, social, cultural environment of social actors. At national level, public policies can appear from any of the major state institutions (Parliament, President, Government, central or local authorities). The study of public policies is different from the traditional academic research, having an applied approach, oriented towards: (1) designing and developing solutions for the problems of society, (2) Interdisciplinarity, (3) Orientation towards problem solving: it does not have a purely academic character, but it is oriented towards the problems of the real world, looking for solutions for them, (4) Normativity. The general stages of this process are as follows: (1) defining the problem, (2) making the decision, (3) implementation of public policy, (4) monitoring and evaluation of public policy. |

The communicative dynamics and its relation with the social dynamics. Reflections for communication research from the paradigm of critical epistemology |
Author : Vivian Romeu |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In this work the communicative phenomenon is understood as the germ of social action. This invites us to think of communication as expressive behavior through which the social, even the historical, is configured. Consequently, to think of communication in the social as social action demands to conceive and study the social reality as a reality in constant movement, that is, giving in the given. From the critique of the traditional concept of communication, through the epistemological legacy of Hugo Zemelman, this paper proposes a reflection on the role of communication in the shaping movement of social reality. |

Author : Tanase Tasente |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In its role as a tool that facilitates participation, Facebook acts as a channel of political communication with different mechanisms than traditional media. At the same time, Facebook offers new means of receiving the audience, characterized by a targeting of the very good target audience. The Facebook page of a political party facilitates interaction and political participation, making possible a two-way communication model and facilitating increased political participation of public opinion.

Moreover, it is also noted that, on Facebook, the political message does not go through the editorial policy filters as it happens in traditional media and is used as a powerful interaction tool with the target audience or even with a public not ever considered by the political communication strategies. |

In Freud is theory, man is an instinctive being. A human being is a system of energy, and this energy is the same as the energy of the "id" or "libido. The goal of life is to reduce the tension and gain pleasure. Most human behaviors originate from the unconscious, and humans do not have free will. From this perspective, the person has no tendency to morality within himself, and consequently ethics will be relative. However, From Shi a point of view, man is the supreme creature of God and is a creature that has two lives. Human beings have free will, so there is a responsibility. Shi a believes that man is not morally neutral and generally have a common moral sense and are aware of the ethical principles and the ultimate goal of life and Creation is to reach the nearness to God. |
