In the research, which is partly descriptive and partly empirical, I examine the success and impact of the event from the perspective of the University of Miskolc, utilizing management theory and sports science approaches. To provide a better understanding of the research question, I introduce the process of organizing the event. The changes in the legislative environment and organizational model of the hosted international sports events in Hungary have significantly affected the event's project organization and, consequently, its execution. I will also look at another factor that influenced the large-scale project, the transformation of the University of Miskolc into a private university, similar to the co-organizer University of Debrecen. I participated in all phases of the organization of the event, I use primary data during the research.</p> Zoltán Rakaczki Copyright (c) 2024 Zoltán Rakaczki https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-09-11 2024-09-11 20 02 3 15 10.18096/TMP.2024.02.01 A Theoretical Framework to Measure Social Acceptance of Nuclear Energy among Hungarian Residents https://ojs.uni-miskolc.hu/index.php/tmp/article/view/3200 <p>Global warming is a pressing issue, but so does economic development and the constantly increasing electricity demand. Governments have to find the balance between conserving the Earth’s atmosphere for future generations and fueling their country’s economy to achieve higher output. Nuclear energy seems like a solid solution for both problems. It can help to replace the fossil fuels in the electricity mix and at the same time reduce CO2 emission, however thanks to the specificities of the technology a lot of people are skeptical about it. The aim of this study is to review the currently available behavioral and technology acceptance models - such as TRA, TPB, TAM, Risk-Benefit Concept, PADM - and based on the results build a new model, that could serve as a basis for a future survey among Hungarian residents related to the acceptance of nuclear energy generation.</p> Péter Bihari Copyright (c) 2024 Péter Bihari https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-10-03 2024-10-03 20 02 17 31 10.18096/TMP.2024.02.02
