“…However, it can be characterized with the use of composite indicators. One of the oldest and most frequently used methods for determining the synthetic variable is the method developed by Zdzisław Henryk Hellwig (Hellwig, 1968;1981;Wysocki, 2010;Pawlewicz, 2015). Many authors used this method to measure the sustainability.…”

Purpose: The objective of this research is to evaluate changes in the economic sustainability of dairy farms in the European Union (EU) countries during 2007-2016 when dairy quotas were being removed in the EU. We wanted to answer the question what is the economic sustainability of dairy farms in the EU, and how has the economic sustainability in the EU countries changed after the accession of new member states in 2004 and 2017. Design/Approach/Methodology: An economic sustainability assessment of farms was conducted using the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) census data with several economic efficiency indicators. We analyzed variables using the Hellwig method. Findings: Results indicate that milk production increased in almost all the countries of the EU, as did their economies. The largest annual increase in standard output (SO) was in Denmark, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Sweden and United Kingdom. In turn, the smallest annual increase in SO was in Lithuania, Bulgaria, Latvia and Poland. Dairy farms in the Czech Republic and Denmark had the highest economic sustainability, while dairy farms in Bulgaria, Croatia, Poland, Romania and Slovenia had the lowest economic sustainability. Practical Implications: While not providing a comprehensive assessment, the indicators used do provide important information about economic impacts related to the scale and distribution of production, difference in labor cost, sources of income and maintenance of farms. Originality/Value: Modern dairy farms must have production efficiency and environmental compliance to achieve sustainability. Much of the current literature focuses on the efficiency and environmental aspects of sustainability and there is a lack of data that assesses economic sustainability.

“…An assessment of the social development level of rural areas using the Hellwig method also was carried out (Rząsa et al, 2019). Pawlewicz (2015) measured the differences in development levels of urban gminas in Warmińsko-Mazurskie voivodeship in Poland. The gminas were ranked in terms of their level of sustainable development.…”

“…If something associates less-favoured areas, it is a clear marginality from central hubs, which provide services and resources. In many cases, marginality comes from lack of connectedness with the economic, social and manufacturing processes of the country [8][9][10][11]. This disconnection has increasingly affected the segregation of peripheral areas, as highlighted in some of the latest European reports on the subject [12].…”

Marginality Assessment: Computational Applications on Italian Municipalities

et al. 2020

Inner areas are the most peripheral Italian municipalities and they are characterized by clear loss of both public and private services. They represent one of the relevant elements in national and regional planning policy and the Italian government has made available a fund (€ 100 million) for small municipalities up to 5000 inhabitants (Law n. 158/2017). These areas have gradually seen an evident process of marginalisation, which is difficult to evaluate because it is the result of several factors. This work describes an applied methodology for this marginality assessment on the Italian inner areas, which was developed through the quantification of eight criteria selected from Law n. 158/2017. The analysis carried out two different simulations for elaborating and mapping territorial disadvantages, with the use of GIS software and MATLAB. The analysis highlights an evident clustering in specific geographic areas. Moreover, this result confirms that there is a significant chaining of some typical issues of the small municipalities. This research represents a first analytical approach to evaluating the intervention priorities of regulatory instruments and national strategies and it is proposed as an innovative approach that introduces a profound change of attitude moving from an equality-based model to an equity-based model.

“…Spatial conflict is an inseparable element of spatial development and human existence [5]. The significance and progression of land-use conflicts are irreversibly linked to the use of space, and the quality of life is influenced by the quality of the surrounding space [6][7][8]. Profit maximization has been the driving force behind land-use conflict ever since humans discovered that land can be a critical source of capital and wealth [9,10].…”

The optimization of space is the priority goal of spatial planning. Spatial planning policies have numerous objectives, including the prevention of land-use conflicts. Conflicts arise whenever two entities have contradictory expectations regarding the surrounding space. In the process of spatial development, humans impart new characteristics to space, which, under specific circumstances, can give rise to land-use conflict. The elements of space that are particularly vulnerable to conflict include boundary points, property boundaries, density of development, or the shared use of infrastructure. The main aim of this study was to develop a procedure for evaluating the risk of land-use conflict based on the characteristic attributes of space. The proposed procedure for assessing the accumulation of conflict-generating traits in space was developed with the use of databases, GIS tools, and statistical data processing methods.
