“…The strategic cooperation interaction corresponds to the function substitution interaction (Nalban & Sm adu, 2021). The practice of government purchasing public services originates from the reform of the governance system in European and American countries.…”

“…Strategic cooperative interaction focuses on the initiative of the government to establish cooperative relations with social organizations. Unlike the control method, the government prefers to support and cultivate autonomous social organizations, making social organizations a supplement to the government's public service provision (Nalban & Sm adu, 2021). The central implication of this interactive model is support and cooperation.…”

“…Functional substitution represents a more subtle form of control. Through actively addressing social needs, the government functionally replaces those social organizations not officially supported, achieving control using substitution as the approach (Nalban & Sm adu, 2021). In such a relationship, social organizations assume a passive position, resulting in an unequal interaction dependent on the government.…”

This study employs qualitative comparative analysis to investigate the effects of different interaction modes, namely, functional substitution and strategic cooperation, on the effectiveness of public service procurement. It reveals that the interaction between the government and social organizations in China's current public service procurement presents a composite form, combining functional substitution and strategic cooperation. Government support for social organizations plays a critical role in procurement effectiveness. The greater the government support, the higher the effectiveness of public service procurement. The study finds that “pure market” and “pure competition” do not necessarily contribute positively to the effectiveness of public service procurement.

“…First, private firms pay taxes to the government, and the resulting tax revenue could be used to increase the supply of goods and services needed to promote economic growth and development. Second, the investment by private firms contributes to the creation of jobs in the economy (e.g., Klein, 2003;Loc et al 2006;Nalban and Smădu, 2021;Steer and Taussig, 2002). This means higher income for employees, which would consume domestically or import, and hence contribute to the increase in the economic growth rate.…”

Recent years’ global shocks (e.g., the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic) and environmental shocks — such as natural disasters — have heightened the vulnerability of developing countries to future shocks, and can compromise their development prospects. International institutions and researchers have advocated that the strengthening of productive capacities in these countries would help enhance the resilience of their economies to shocks, and promote sustainable development. This paper has examined the effect of productive capacities on economic growth and economic growth volatility in developing countries, in particular when they face a high level of structural economic vulnerability. The analysis covers 117 developing countries over the period of 2000–2018. It shows that productive capacities not only promote economic growth, but also reduce economic growth volatility. On the other hand, structural economic vulnerability reduces economic growth (in particular when it exceeds a certain level), and induces greater volatility of economic growth. Interestingly, productive capacities promote economic growth and reduce economic growth volatility in countries that face a high degree of structural economic vulnerability. These findings support the recommendation by international institutions and researchers that if they were to enhance the resilience of their economies to shocks, and promote sustainable economic growth, developing countries (in particular the poorest ones) should strengthen their productive capacities.

“…A 1993-2012 study showed that public sector wages determine private sector wages and vice versa; another study also found that public sector employees are usually better educated and better paid. (Nalban & Smadu, 2021) This research started from the desire to identify and analyse the functioning of the labour market and its trends, through a comparative analysis of pre-pandemic, pandemic and post-pandemic. In this way we aimed to identify, at national and international level, how human resources were affected by the pandemic, how employers managed the fluctuations in the market but also what the future outlook is (that for Europe being analysed in parallel with the European Commission directives described in Agenda 2030).…”

Since the appearance of the first entrepreneurial activities, people have noticed that the most important resource, without which they will not be able to be successful, is the human resource. Over time, industries and fields of activity have evolved and this is obvious to everyone, but this would not have been possible without well-trained, involved and eager people to achieve performance. Therefore, whatever resources are involved in a business, regardless of the field, country, coverage area, the human resource remains the most valuable. The business sector is constantly evolving and, along with it, the labor market also shows a dynamic that is at least directly proportional. The pandemic period strongly affected almost all economic sectors and, at the same time, a very large number of employees were directly affected by these changes: either they became unemployed, or they were laid off, or (the happiest ones) they continued the flow of work, without being strongly affected by what happened in the market. We have analysed these changes at the international level in order to outline the evolution of the labor market in recent years and its future trends. Through this article, with the help of the synthesis of case studies carried out by accredited institutions as well as the specialized literature, we propose to identify what was, with the total or partial return to normality, the dynamics of the labor market and how the companies managed to straighten and fold with the new realities of the markets.
