The process of social differentiation in post-communist states has had a clear impact on the status of neighbourhoods. Municipalities have tried to handle the problem, but planning in Hungary is still based on shallow analyses. This paper presents a method for examining and quantifying prevailing factors of residential areas, also being able of a spatial comparison. It detects problematic issues and locations and assists in the formulation of solutions. The model city for the presented study was Szeged, located in southeastern Hungary. Szeged is the economic center of the region and it was an ideal urban area for the evaluation of housing needs and for the mapping of various objects and social services. A field-collected qualitative database was processed using the Idrisi Selva GIS program, resulting in a classifying map of investigated areas. We have localized the properties of the lowest score and also determined the major issues responsible for low scores by analysing the spatial data of 27 GIS layers. The model can be used to detect the reasons causing differences in the perception of neighbourhoods, while it may serve as a tool for decision makers.

A Standard Spending Assessment (SSA) is the amount which government considers appropriate for a local authority to set as its annual budget requirement. Each assessment is composed of revenues calculated for a discrete set of service blocks where the local unit costs of service provision are most often estimated by means of regression procedures that have been subject to regular scrutiny and review. Set against this context, in this paper the authors evaluate the performance of the regressions that contribute to the calculation of SSAs as equitable allocation devices. The general accounting framework for constructing SSAs is described and a statistical classification of the regression models is presented. In their analysis the authors examine a selection of models that are representative of each class and they include the regressions that comprise the Other District Services and Personal Social Services blocks. These appraisals follow a common sequence where a dummy variable is entered into the regression to test the consistency of the allocation made to a specified group of local authorities. When the dummy variable is statistically significant, revisions to the specification of the regression are either tested or suggested. Finally, the broader implications of these findings for the design of SSAs are examined.

Introduction. Social entrepreneurship is a relatively new phenomenon for world science. Scientists approach the systematization of knowledge in this field and the very definition of this term in different ways. And this, in turn, led to the existence of different approaches to the classification of social enterprises. A number of factors are due to the variety of classification features: a large number of social problems, the solution of which requires new methods of doing business; regulatory framework governing the activities of social enterprises; not a clear distinction between social entrepreneurship and charity, corporate social responsibility. A detailed classification of social enterprises will help identify enterprises that will best fit the essence of the model of social entrepreneurship. Methods. The theoretical and methodological basis for the study of the main directions of classification of social enterprises used in the world, were the works of domestic and foreign scientists on the features of the model of socially-oriented entrepreneurship. The article used general and special methods of scientific knowledge: system analysis and synthesis, deductive and inductive methods, methods of analogies, generalizations and comparisons. Results. The article examines different approaches to the classification of social entrepreneurship, which are based on the following criteria: the degree of integration of the social program and business processes; goals of activity and direction of profit use; mission, the availability of income from core activities and the availability of an innovative component; ways to create social enterprises; specifics of business organization. All social enterprises can be divided into those that provide social services to the population, and those who employ socially vulnerable groups of the population. Also, enterprises are divided into self-financing, partly self-financing and profitable, depending on the level of profitability of business entities and the size of the social effect created. Special attention is paid to the classification of social enterprises, which is used in the Catalog of social enterprises of Ukraine. The scientific novelty of the obtained results lies in the theoretical substantiation and practical solution of the expediency of classification of socially-oriented enterprises in two directions: social and commercial. Discussion. Further research will focus on determining the level of compliance of the enterprise with its socially-oriented mission on the basis of the proposed classification. Keywords: the classification of social enterprises, social-oriented entrepreneurship, social effect.

The article investigates and clarifies various approaches to the classification of types of behavior that provoke situations of conflict with the law. The problematic circle is analyzed to determine the terminology, characteristics of the types and types of behavior that provoke the emergence of situations of conflict with the law, presented in the scientific developments of teachers, psychologists, lawyers, criminologists, sociologists. Consideration of various classifications of such behavior is carried out taking into account an interdisciplinary approach. The study clarified the essential characteristics of the category «minors in conflict with the law». The article defines that such a category is formed by persons aged 14 to 18 years who have committed offenses (crimes) and / or are registered in the department (sector) of juvenile justice, or are serving a sentence by a court sentence (associated with imprisonment or alternative punishment). It has been determined that the main prerequisite for the emergence of situations of conflict with the law is the formation of educational difficulties. The article analyzes various classification approaches to distinguishing between types of behavior that provoke situations of conflict with the law. These classifications are based on the following parameters: the basis of types of behavior; socio-psychological aspect; rejection of pedagogical influences; the nature of personal deformities; type of personality criminalization; situationality and repetition of illegal actions; signs of the formation of a criminal personality; determination of behavior; personality structure; orientation of behavior as affective reactions; destructiveness of the motives of behavior. It is proved that knowledge and possession of typological and specific characteristics of the behavior of minors, which provokes the emergence of situations of conflict with the law, is an important theoretical and methodological basis for organizing effective social and legal assistance and providing a high-quality complex of social services to such minors.

Immigration Regulation

Church asylum, a practice aimed at assisting migrants with precarious residence statuses, has  been enacted in Finland particularly since the 2010s. As a result of migrants’ insecure residency, their capacities of action are often restricted. They have been deprived of access to health and social services and schooling, and their movements limited due to fear of the police and deportation. This article analyses the autonomy and capacities of action of those in church asylum and the congregations assisting them, following Albert Bandura’s classification of individual, proxy and collective agency. The data consists of interviews (N=25) with employees of congregations and people who have been in church asylum. According to the results, the agency of people in church asylum was often drastically limited, which led to a need for proxy and collective agencies. Immigration regulation created a structure controlling the autonomy and capacities of both migrants and congregations. All modes of agency were inventively applied.

Good Agreement

For years the separation of carcinoma and sarcoma and the subclassification of sarcomas has been based on the appearance of the tumor cells and their microscopic growth pattern and information derived from certain histochemical and special stains. Although this method of study has produced good agreement among pathologists in the separation of carcinoma from sarcoma, it has given less uniform results in the subclassification of sarcomas. There remain examples of neoplasms of different histogenesis, the classification of which is questionable because of similar cytologic and growth patterns at the light microscopic level; i.e. amelanotic melanoma versus carcinoma and occasionally sarcoma, sarcomas with an epithelial pattern of growth simulating carcinoma, histologically similar mesenchymal tumors of different histogenesis (histiocytoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma, lytic osteogenic sarcoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma), and myxomatous mesenchymal tumors of diverse histogenesis (myxoid rhabdo and liposarcomas, cardiac myxoma, myxoid neurofibroma, etc.)
