Since 2017, the new Baku’s districts for rich peoples are emerging, generally with the territory physically limited by high fence. Thereafter evidently, there is a growing process of dissatisfaction around middle and creative class of people. Most people can agree that cities are places where large numbers of people live and work; there are hubs of administration, commerce and residence. Livability refers to the subset of sustainability impacts that directly affect people in a community, such as economic development, affordability, public health, social equity and pollution exposure. The study of social environment (SE) and sustainability in residential neighborhoods (RN) of Baku City was undertaken as expertise for the Baku Masterplan 2020-2040 elaborated in frame of request form the Azerbaijan State Committee of Architecture and Urban planning. The aim of the study was to review the current stage of developing of master plan and its strategy to support or direct towards aspiration to be sustainable residential neighborhoods, through enhancing QoL. Another purpose was to explore the impact of social environment, culture energy conservation on QoL happiness of Baku’s residents. Despite the obvious diversity of residential areas, the presented research has tried to collect the recommendations in term of leadership to social housing and urban dissemination of new sustainable models. \u0000The information evaluated during the work under the Baku Strategic Planning Process assists to determine existing tendencies of urban development and explore of re-generable solution.","PeriodicalId":170057,"journal":{"name":"Selected Topics in Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 2","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122908065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biographical variables pertaining to teachers’ age, sex, marital status and work experience were investigated to determine whether they had any significant contribution on the level of morale and job satisfaction experienced. Morale and job satisfaction has been perceived differently by different researchers in the field of human resource and management. The study employed mixed methods of data collection including the use of instruments such as an interview guide, questionnaires and documentary review checklist. The study found that job satisfaction among teachers in public secondary schools northern Tanzania was not homogeneous; socio-economic and demographic factors had a great contribution on varying morale and job satisfaction levels. For example, female teachers’ job satisfaction was statistically significant (t(84) =2.62, p = 0.04), so was the job satisfaction of young teachers (bellow 40 years) (t(84) = -2.22, p = 0.01). However, age and working experience had a great contribution towards teachers’ job satisfaction and dissatisfaction. The study concludes that the socio-economic and demographic factors have potential strength in designing and sustaining job satisfaction model which accounts for morale and job satisfaction challenges among teachers in public secondary schools in Tanzania. The motivators and hygiene factors were confirmed to have great contribution on job satisfaction among teachers in public secondary schools in Tanzania.","PeriodicalId":170057,"journal":{"name":"Selected Topics in Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 2","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126465437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this way, a new critical approach can be given to such analyses, adopting a polysemic attitude that suits better than the current one to convey the full richness of the musical phenomenon, especially in terms of its fluidity and dynamics. The first part of the article attempts to determine the limits of Jean-Jacques Nattiez's musical semiology, as well as the analyses derived from it. We will look closely at the notion of musical work examining the components of its complexity, which prevents a reductive operation between the score and the work. The second part of the chapter deals with the reconstruction of musical works, proposed on the basis of Musical Heuristics, giving way to an \"embodied\" knowledge of the reference pieces and thus complementing the analyses derived from musical semiology. As conclusion, my paper attempts a musicological application of the three underlying principles of the philosophy of complexity.","PeriodicalId":170057,"journal":{"name":"Selected Topics in Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 2","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129098490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike most past researches that deployed isolated estimation methods, this research used conjoint analysis, a marketing research tool to measures the relative utilities and trade-off matrices of different job attributes. Data was collected from 140 executive MBA students from a premier business school in Dhaka using a questionnaire presenting an array of hypothetical job offers (HJO). Salary & benefit and person-job match are found to be the top two most preferred job attributes. Work environment and company- reputation are indicated as the two least important job attributes. Simulation was run to demonstrate the trade-offs people make in their job choice decisions. Case-wise conjoint results show no significant difference among different demographic groups (e.g. married-single, have-don’t have dependents and others) in terms of the order of importance of the job attributes. However, the value of the relative importance was found to be slightly different for different demographic groups. This research is important for academics as it demonstrate a new technique to analyze job attribute preferences. Managers can use the results of this study for designing jobs to attract and retain the best talents of the market. They can use the simulation process demonstrated here for optimizing overall preference of their job offers.","PeriodicalId":170057,"journal":{"name":"Selected Topics in Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 2","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115285572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
