“…This may be mainly due to the infrastructure gaps in Poland in other areas, such as transport [97,98]. In addition, Sarker et al [99] postulate the introduction of a low-carbon monitoring system. All parties (residents, businesses and authorities) should be stimulated to ensure the sustainable development of low-carbon cities.…”

The main objective of the article is to evaluate the investment activity of large cities in Poland in the area of developing a low-carbon economy in 2014–2020, co-financed by European Union funds. This article poses several research questions, namely: Do large cities with environmental problems actively obtain EU funding to develop a low-carbon economy? What are the main socio-economic and environmental determinants of the level of the EU funding absorption among large cities in the research area? The empirical research was conducted on the basis of the data from the Ministry of Investment and Economic Development in Poland, which is responsible for the implementation of cohesion policy funds and from the Local Data Bank of Statistics Poland. Under the 2014–2020 perspective, 223 such projects have been implemented for a total of PLN 21 billion (EUR 4.74 billion). The projects focused on: transportation, electricity, gaseous fuels, steam, hot water and air for air conditioning systems, and environmental and climate change activities. In terms of both the number and the value of EU funds spent, great variation has been observed. Analysis of the correlation relationships showed a highly positive correlation between selected indicators of investment activity in the field of low-carbon economy co-financed by EU funds (especially taking into account the value of investments per area) and socio-economic indicators of Polish metropolises. Metropolises with high demographic, economic, and financial potential have proven to be more effective beneficiaries. Interestingly, no correlation was found between investment activity in the low-carbon economy and the level of environment pollution in large cities. This means that, unfortunately, pro-environmental activities depend on the state of finances of the cities, and not necessarily on the actual needs, even taking into account the fact that the EU covers a large proportion of the costs.

“…As an integral part of public policy, urban development policy follows the research approach of public policy. First, the sociological research approach, the city is a highly congregation of human communities, because the high degree of aggregation destroys the balance of natural ecology and cultural ecology, resulting in a variety of social problems, such as urban transportation, and housing (Sarker et al, 2018e). Environmental issues, etc.…”

The Government of India has introduced Economic Policy in 1991 to implement structural reforms for reduce the imbalances. In India, Traders want maximum gain with minimum risk, so is the case with derivatives. Derivatives are among the forefront of the innovations in the financial markets and aim to increase returns and reduce risk. A derivative is a financial product which has been derived from another financial product or commodity. The derivatives do not have independent existence without underlying product and market. Derivatives are contracts which are written between two parties for easily marketable assets. Derivatives are gaining importance due to increased volatility in capital and foreign currency markets. RBI finds ways for healthy development of market and takes steps to popularise the use of derivative instruments, but still awareness about the derivative instruments and its uses are quite low. Hence, it is necessary to find out the level of awareness among investing public and if found low, how to create adequate awareness to encourage the use of derivative products as hedge tools. This study can be used by the regulating authorities and broker houses to increase awareness among the traders about derivatives. One should invest in secured and risk-free investments rather than high-risk, highly profitable investments. Tracking the market environment better with sound knowledge about a particular stock would result in better returns. Since many of the entities in this study are independent of each other, there is need to analyse on a buying decision specifically for respective stocks. People with less experience can also be high profit makers when decisions are based on intricate fundamental and technical analyses.

“…27 In order to make political science research into accurate and scientific orbit, it is necessary to adopt some programmed means and techniques in the concrete research, and this is the method of political science research, including economic analysis method, class analysis method, historical method, comparative method, interdisciplinary method, measurement method and so on. 28,29 The research perspectives, ways and methods of political science have exerted a profound influence on the theory and practice of public administration. As an important branch of political science, public administration can be said to be synchronized with the formation and development of modern political science.…”

There is a long debate about the relationship among sociology, politics and public administration. This study intends to contribute to the existing debate through focusing interdisciplinary relationship among sociology, politics and public administration in terms of theory and practice. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the relationship among sociology, politics and public administration. A qualitative approach has been employed particularly desk review. A number of secondary sources have been consulted to substantiate the argument. This study reveals that though sociology, politics and public administration have their own identity as a discipline but there is a strong relationship among sociology, politics and public administration in terms of theory and practice. It also reveals that there is a narrow demarcation among these three disciplines but all of them come from philosophy, so their nature of dealing is almost same to each other. All these three disciplines are working on human, society, culture and practices.
