Abstract:As humans increasingly alter the surface geomorphology of the Earth, a multitude of artificial aquatic systems have appeared, both deliberately and accidentally. Human modifications to the hydroscape range from alteration of existing waterbodies to construction of new ones. The extent of these systems makes them important and dynamic components of modern landscapes, but their condition and provisioning of ecosystem services by these systems are underexplored, and likely underestimated. Instead of accepting that artificial ecosystems have intrinsically low values, environmental scientists should determine what combination of factors, including setting, planning and construction, subsequent management and policy, and time, impact the condition of these systems. Scientists, social scientists, and policymakers should more thoroughly evaluate whether current study and management of artificial aquatic systems is based on the actual ecological condition of these systems, or judged differently, due to artificiality, and consider resultant possible changes in goals for these systems. The emerging recognition and study of artificial aquatic systems presents an exciting and important opportunity for science and society.

“…In the last few decades, there has been much encouragement from the government for mass tourism in Turkey along with foreign investments. While the focus on mass tourism has been crucial for the economic development of Turkey, it has also attracted a lot of criticism about its negative environmental, social, cultural, and economic impacts (Egresi 2016). This encouraged a lot of businesses to take initiative for more sustainable practices toward giving more attention to minimizing their possible negative impacts on the environment and at the same time, benefit local communities with the positive aspects of increased tourist traffic (Tousan, 2001;Kisi, 2019;Ekinci, 2014).…”

This chapter focuses on the dynamics of MHC-SME collaboration on sustainability in an emerging country context. The findings show that MHC sustainability policy is generally driven from headquarters and that economic sustainability has priority over environmental and social sustainability. By contrast, SMEs appear to be able to initiate fully sustainable strategies based on the culture, tradition, family history, industry, and ethical standing of the owners. The interaction of MHCs and SMEs in relation to sustainability involves varying factors at the macro, meso, and micro levels. However, the micro level factor (i.e., human agency) seems to be the determining factor of the relationship. The authors provide rich contextual data by adopting a qualitative research method (case study) based on primary data, which is rare in international business literature.

“…A vendéglátás fejlődésnek indulhat és a turisták megjelenése álláslehetőségeket biztosíthat a helyi lakósok számára (Kovács, 2020). Ugyanakkor a turizmus megjelenése és annak tömegessé válása negatívan is hathat egyes településekre, például az emelkedő lakhatási és élelmiszer árak akár szinte lehetetlenné tehetik a helyiek számára, hogy felkeressék a turisztikai célpontokat (Egresi, 2016) • a városi környezethez való viszonyulás…”

The study presents the results of a survey conducted among young people in secondary school in Miercurea-Ciuc, which investigated young people's attitudes towards rurality. The results of the data collection are presented in four thematic areas: opinions on the countryside, arguments in favour of rural lifestyle, barriers to choosing a rural lifestyle, and the target group's perception of what factors of the area under study would be valuable for a foreigner.
