    Keywords : Mortality inequalities; socioeconomic gradient in health; children’s education; socioeconomic status; SES; demography; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : While there exists a large literature on mortality inequalities by an individual’s level of education and other socioeconomic characteristics this thesis looks at the relationship between the children’s level of education and parents’ mortality, which has been relatively less studied.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för tjänstevetenskap

    Author : Theofilos Kolios; [2023]
    Keywords : museum management; private museums; economic strategies; open-system theory; stakeholder theory; resource-dependence theory; Business and Economics; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : The thesis examines the economic strategies which two private museums of Meteora, the Hellenic Culture Museum and the Natural History Museum of Meteora and Mushroom Museum implement, so as to grasp the economic strategies that private museums in Greece adopt. Utilizing Varbanova’s (2013) framework which places specific emphasis not only on the open-system theory as an efficient way to comprehend the macro-level challenges (in particular the economic crisis and Covid-19, which had been plaguing the two museums for a long time) and opportunities (as the ones that can result from the implementation of a particular legal status in the context of a given cultural policy), but also on the stakeholder and resource-dependence theories, which acknowledge the pivotal role that various actors and resources inside and outside an organization play in museums’ prosperity, the thesis analyzes previous literature that demonstrates economic strategies that (public and private) museums adopt, so as to secure their continuation and thriving.
