Digital Skills, Ethics, and Integrity—The Impact of Risky Internet Use, a Multivariate and Spatial Approach to Understanding NEET Vulnerability
(MDPI, 2025) Grigorescu, Adriana; Alistar, Teodor Victor; Lincaru, Cristina
In an era where digitalization shapes economic and social landscapes, the intersection of digital skills, ethics, and integrity plays a crucial role in understanding the vulnerability of youth classified as NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training). This study explores how risky internet use and digital skill gaps contribute to socio-economic exclusion, integrating a multivariate and spatial approach to assess regional disparities in Europe. This study adopts a systems thinking perspective to explore digital exclusion as an emergent outcome of multiple interrelated subsystems. The research employs logistic regression, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with Promax rotation, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to examine the impact of digital behaviors on NEET status. Using Eurostat data aggregated at the country level for the period (2000–2023) across 28 European countries, this study evaluates 24 digital indicators covering social media usage, instant messaging, daily internet access, data protection awareness, and digital literacy levels. The findings reveal that low digital skills significantly increase the likelihood of being NEET, while excessive social media and internet use show mixed effects depending on socio-economic context. A strong negative correlation between digital security practices and NEET status suggests that youths with a higher awareness of online risks are less prone to socio-economic exclusion. The GIS analysis highlights regional disparities, where countries with limited digital access and lower literacy levels exhibit higher NEET rates. Digital exclusion is not merely a technological issue but a multidimensional socio-economic challenge. To reduce the NEET rate, policies must focus on enhancing digital skills, fostering online security awareness, and addressing regional disparities. Integrating GIS methods allows for the identification of territorial clusters with heightened digital vulnerabilities, guiding targeted interventions for improving youth employability in the digital economy.
Improving And Strengthening The Effectiveness Of The Institutional Capacity Of The Judicial System
(2020) Alistar, Teodor Victor
The purpose of this paper is to present how overcrowding of the courts is a recurring and persistent problem of the judicial system in Romania. The problem is given on the one hand by the causes that have similarities between them but are not necessarily identical and which have their origin in a deficient regulation or a lack of correlation between the different normative acts, primary and / or secondary regulation, and on the other hand, by those identical, repetitive causes, usually triggered by a systemic problem. By using statistics, the paper aims to reflect the gravity of the situation regarding the activity in a busy court. The solution could be given by the implementation of some sort of standard system that comes with modern and efficient management tools existent in each institution regarding the justice system.
Multiannual Dynamic Indicators For Human Resources Management Planning in Judicial System
(The Union of Jurists of Romania and Universul Juridic Publishing House, 2017) Alistar, Teodor Victor
Romanian Judicial system is often affected by legislative changes and external factors weighing upon its capacity to deliver justice as a public service. Prognosis is a key factor to determine the mid-term strategy of human resources given the natural internal dynamics and standard external factors. These are comprised in a list of specific influencing factors as well as quantification formulas to assess and use them. Their conjunction is reflected in DPF (Dynamic Ponderation Factor) for planning in judiciary.
Options for Independence of Prosecutors in Exercise of Judicial Functions, Current Situation and Remedies. – Some issues of debate on the independence and accountability of prosecutors. Situational and trend aspects
(The Union of Jurists of Romania and Universul Juridic Publishing House, 2017) Alistar, Teodor Victor; Bitea, Cristian Vasile
The independence of justice is often debated in the Romanian legal community, regarding also the independence of prosecutors. The legislative changes are subject of review in accordance with international standards or approaches and national constitutional framework. From this dual perspective a set of reflections and requirements are presented to be taken into account in legislative review of prosecutors’ status with their assigned professional rights and liabilities.
