The investigation covers 41 countries. The environmental indicators were selected by the authors from the database of the Bertelsmann Stiftung (BS) Sustainable Governance Indicators (SGI) 2022 report after reviewing the literature. Due to its difficult measurement, corruption is usually measured by the perceived level of the presence of corruption, and the authors of this study also used this method in their research. Accordingly, the authors modelled the perceived presence of corruption using the time series of Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index. Based on their results, the state's performance in environmental policy plays the most important role, the impact of which is enhanced by participation in international environmental cooperation and treaties. These achievements are threatened by corruption and bureaucracy. Among the environmental indicators, the effect of gross greenhouse gas emissions is the strongest. This effect is negative, i.e. higher output increases the perception of corruption, which is indicated by a decrease in PCI.

Drawing on governance and accountability theory, resource dependence theory, inter-organizational coordination theory, and policy feedback theory, the study examines the institutional, resource-based, and procedural factors that affect GAS’s ability to drive policy improvement. A qualitative document analysis approach was employed, reviewing audit reports, policy documents, and legislative texts from 2013 to 2022. Key findings reveal that limited resources, a lack of standardized performance indicators, inadequate inter-agency coordination, and weak accountability mechanisms hinder GAS’s capacity to impact policy outcomes effectively. To address these challenges, the study proposes strategies to enhance resource allocation for GAS, establish formalized coordination mechanisms, develop clear performance metrics, and implement robust accountability structures. These recommendations aim to create a responsive, transparent governance framework that enables GAS to support evidence-based policy adjustments. This research contributes to the literature on public audit and governance in emerging economies, underscoring the role of integrated audit-policy frameworks in fostering accountable, effective industrial policies.

A tanulmány célja az elv elméleti hátterének és jogi alkalmazásának átfogó bemutatása, különös tekintettel a környezetjogi, polgári jogi, közigazgatási és büntetőjogi vonatkozásokra. A dolgozat kitér az elv nemzetközi és európai uniós szabályozására, valamint a magyar jogrendben történő érvényesítésére. Elemzi a környezeti károk meghatározásának, mértékének megállapításának és felelősség telepítésének kérdéseit, bemutatva a gyakorlati megvalósítás nehézségeit és az állami beavatkozás szükségességét. A tanulmány végül javaslatokat tesz a jogi szabályozás fejlesztésére és az elv hatékonyabb érvényesítésére a fenntartható környezetvédelem érdekében. Az elemzés hangsúlyozza, hogy a PPP nemcsak preventív, hanem társadalmi igazságossági funkciót is betölt, miközben számos kihívással szembesül a gyakorlati alkalmazás során. The "Polluter Pays Principle" (PPP) is one of the basic principles of modern environmental law and policy, according to which those who caused the damage must bear responsibility for environmental damage. The aim of the study is to provide a comprehensive presentation of the principle's theoretical background and legal application, with particular regard to environmental, civil, administrative and criminal law aspects. The thesis covers the international and European Union regulation of the principle, as well as its enforcement in the Hungarian legal system. It analyzes the issues of defining, determining the extent of environmental damage and establishing liability, showing the difficulties of practical implementation and the need for state intervention. Finally, the study makes suggestions for the development of legal regulations and the more effective enforcement of the principle for the sake of sustainable environmental protection. The analysis emphasizes that PPP fulfills not only a preventive but also a social justice function, while facing many challenges in its practical application.

In this regard, Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) has emerged as a new money invention to offset the advancement of cryptocurrencies and maintain central ability to distribute cash as a common good. Thus, the purpose of this study is to examine how the adoption of CBDC can change monetary policy transmission mechanism. CBDC can disintermediate the conventional banking industry and produce inflationary pressure through the money supply unless central banks adopt suitable regulatory frameworks to facilitate a seamless transition. On the other hand, a well-structured CBDC can encourage increased financial inclusion, resulting in a favourable outcome on the interest rate pass-through of monetary policy. Meanwhile, since interest-bearing CBDC can affect bank reserves, deposit rates and lending policies, it can also have an impact on the credit channel.

However, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels and employing renewable energy technology is essential for maintaining environmental sustainability and energy security. Despite noteworthy research on foreign financing and renewable energy consumption, few studies have discussed the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and renewable energy generation (REG) that enables such consumption. Thus, this study fills this gap in the literature by applying the generalized method of moments/dynamic panel data (GMM/DPD) estimation technique to determine the impact of FDI on REG in European economies from 2010 to 2022. Based on the results, FDI has a significant and negative impact on REG. The implication of the findings is that policymakers should decide on suitable incentive programs, such as feed-in tariffs, electricity purchase agreements, and renewable project tax credits, in order to redirect FDI from nonrenewable energy sources to the renewable energy sector.

Jelentős viták övezik az európai zöld megállapodás stratégiai célkitűzéseinek megvalósíthatóságát. Elemzésünk célja, hogy megvizsgáljuk, az Európai Unió 27 tagállama mennyire képes teljesíteni az energiabiztonság megteremtésére irányuló szakpolitikai célkitűzéseket. További célunk annak feltárása, hogy a tagállamok az energiabiztonságot meghatározó indikátorok alapján klaszterekbe sorolhatók-e, függetlenül gazdasági és politikai heterogenitásuktól. Kutatásunk során az energiafüggőséget meghatározó tényezőket elemeztük, valamint jellemeztük az országcsoportokat energiabiztonság szempontjából. Az elemzés tényfeltáró jellegű, amelyhez OLS, fixhatás- és véletlenhatás-panelmodelleket, K-közép klaszterelemzést alkalmaztunk. Az eredmények rávilágítanak, hogy bizonyos országcsoportok jelentősen alulteljesítenek az energiabiztonsági célkitűzések terén, ami elsősorban gazdaságpolitikai, geopolitikai és gazdaságszerkezeti tényezőkre vezethető vissza. Mindez azt mutatja, hogy az energiabiztonság problémája az uniós tagállamokban továbbra is megoldásra vár.* LA - Hungarian DB - MTMT ER - TY - JOUR AU - Samambet, Mansiya AU - Khouangvichit, Chintana TI - Outsmarting the hurdles to digitalizing the postal sector: The case of Deutsche Post, Poste Italiane, and Royal Mail JF - INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS REVIEW J2 - INT J PROF BUS REV VL - 10 PY - 2025 IS - 3 PG - 35 SN - 2525-3654 DO - 10.26668/businessreview/2025.v10i3.5355 UR - https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35808591 ID - 35808591 LA - English DB - MTMT ER - TY - CHAP AU - Urbán, György Patrik ED - Kuruczleki, Éva TI - Role of digitalization and digital skills T2 - Navigating the Future : Digitalization, Sustainability, and International Business PB - University of Szeged Faculty of Economics and Business Administration CY - Szeged SN - 9789636880408 PY - 2025 SP - 30 EP - 43 PG - 14 DO - 10.14232/gtk.nfdsib.2025.2 UR - https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36064708 ID - 36064708 AB - The rate of digitalization significantly increases productivity within various economic sectors. Digitalization shapes the development of numerous sectors, however, there are sectors where digital transformation is lagging behind, like in the case of agriculture. Digitalization is influenced by capital, motivation, infrastructure, technology availability, and digital skills. Among all factors, in agriculture, one of the barriers to digitalization is the lack of digital skills. For this reason, the aim of the study is twofold: it aims, first, to underscore the critical role of digitalization and to better understand the importance of digital skills, and, second, to reveal the obstacles of digitalization in the agricultural sector. In addition, the study examines the subskills of digital skills one by one, providing a comprehensive review of capabilities, thereby offering the reader a broader understanding of one of the primary influencers of digitalization.
