Depending on society culture, traditions, and era, understanding of companies' social responsibility might vary. In this part, we distinguish definitions of companies' social responsibility and discuss the roles of stakeholders. Relations between the stakeholders are discussed in the context of social capital development. We emphasize that commitment against the interested subjects can be a long-term company policy, dictated by values of an organization, rather than the strategy in the activity market. Often in the implementation practice of companies' social responsibility, there can be attention focus on one or even several very significant activities, which indicated that the organizationhas not yet assimilated the valuable content of this idea and is developing its activity by ignoring a very important principle of inner maturity.

“…The general problems of sustainable development are analyzed through various aspects in a number of scientific works, including the ones carried out in Lithuania (Zavadskas 2008;Zavadskas et al 2007aZavadskas et al , 2007bZavadskas and Antuchevičienė 2006;Burinskienė 2009;Čiegis and Gineitiene 2008;Grundey 2009;Kavaliauskas 2008;Rutkauskas et al 2008;Platje 2008;Kaklauskas et al 2009a;Melnikas 1990Melnikas , 2002. Sustainable development in the context of various transformation and transition processes in general could be defined as an especially perspective area and as the main direction of the research on sustainable development (Zavadskas 2008;Dzemydiene 2008;Grundey 2008cGrundey , 2009McNally 1999;Melnikas 1990Melnikas , 2002Munasinghe et al 2001;Perraton 2001;Redding and Venables 2004). The problems and processes of the sustainable development in the transition countries in general , as well as in the Eastern and Central European countries could be defined as an important research area too (Brauers et al 2007;Cohendet and Stojak 2005;Dicken 1998;Goeransson and Soederberg 2005;Hayo and Seifert 2003;Krupka 2007;Lasas 2004;Llorca and Redzepagic 2008;Melnikas 1997Melnikas , 1999Melnikas , 2002Melnikas , 2008aMelnikas and Reichelt 2004;…”

Abstract.The new theoretical approach of the processes of creating knowledge based society and the knowledge economy, as well as sustainable development processes is described in the article. The main idea is that the creation and development processes of the knowledge-based society and knowledge economy may be attributed to the category of global transformation and sustainable development processes, therefore, all general phenomena and characteristics of global transformations and sustainable development in general, are absolutely typical for the creation and development of the knowledge based society and knowledge economy. The processes of the creating of knowledge based society and knowledge economy and modernization are analyzed in the general context of the processes of sustainable development. The main principles of creating the knowledge based society and knowledge economy and modernization are described. Creating and modernization of the knowledge based society and knowledge economy are very complicated processes, oriented to the formation of the new quality of society and qualitatively new lifestyle, these processes may be described as "twice" as complicated, because they win distinction by orientations to the pursuit of new quality in two aspects: the knowledge based society and knowledge economy, compared to "traditional" society and economy, are in all cases described as qualitatively new, creating and development of the knowledge based society and knowledge economy takes place under the conditions of the global changes, which means that qualitative changes take place in all global space, the essence of those changes is the creation and spread of the knowledge-based society and knowledge economy. A special attention is given to the conclusion that in the environment of the knowledge based society creation and generating knowledge economy and development, the provisions for sustainable development should be attained. The processes of creating knowledge based society and knowledge economy and further development should be analyzed and assessed in the context of processes of globalization and internationalization, as well as processes of global transformations.The "Power" concept intended for the scientific cognition of sustainable development and knowledge based society and knowledge economy creation processes phenomena is analyzed.

“…This system was fully reasonable as otherwise the remaining electricity producers would be made to go bankrupt. Changes in the structure of electricity supply, have promoted the government to review its current energy policy related to development of national and regional electricity market (Milčiuvienė and Tikniūtė 2009: 83;Grundey 2008a). In 2010, when INPP was decommissioned, an electricity exchange started operating in Lithuania and a substantial amount of electricity (about 40%) is purchased on the exchange.…”

Abstract. At the end of the 20th century most governments of the world started adopting guidelines on the electricity market liberalization, and the liberal electricity market already operates in USA, Scandinavia and some EU Member States. In most cases the deregulated market has lived up to expectations but there were situations when priority was again given to the regulated market. The aim of this article is to assess whether the deregulated electricity market is a good choice for the countries with a small and imperfect market. Electricity is completely homogenous and it might not be warehoused and its price depends on the fuel used, so the examples of other economic sectors (natural gas, water, telecommunications, etc.) sometimes cannot be applied for this market. Th is paper analyses the advantages and disadTh is paper analyses the advantages and disadThis paper analyses the advantages and disadvantages and the potential threats of the deregulated electricity market; moreover, the paper presents the main principles lying behind the electricity price setting and analyses whether the deregulated electricity market fits for Lithuania.
