SOCIAL WORK IMPLICATIONS: The study recommends that social workers not assess physical violence only but all types of abuses that women perpetrate and the factors that trigger their partners’ aggression.Īs a new land use type, innovation districts are taking prominence in the urban development policies and plans of many cities across the globe. OUTCOMES: The findings led to the discoveries of factors that facilitate women’s aggression against men: Financial inconsistency in a relationship, Power imbalance in a relationship, and conflicts over infidelity in a relationship.
Data was gathered by conducting semi-structured interviews with ten (10) men who have experienced violence from their female partners through purposive sampling, and data were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). METHODS: A Phenomenological approach identifies the factors triggering intimate partner violence (IPV) against men through a qualitative case study method. THEORETICAL BASE: The theoretical approach uses the multidimensional theory of IPV, which is conversant with Integrative Structural model of violence, which is more contextual and covers more causes of IPV than one-dimensional approaches. Drawing the baseline from the patriarchal cultural standpoint in which social workers have a vital role in addressing these factors and profound interventions for the male victims. OBJECTIVES: This study aims to address relevant factors influencing the Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) occurrences against men in Ondo State of Nigeria. The presented case study could be used as a reference point for similar container seaports, which are aware of their limited resources, but need to increase their efficiency and competitiveness. Finally, the authors propose measures to improve the competitiveness of the Port of Rijeka.
Further, the authors conducted the case study of the Port of Rijeka, using the following identified competitiveness factors: the port’s geographical location, feeder connection, and maritime connectivity, infrastructure and superstructure of the container terminal, berth length, depth of the port and port area characteristics, road and railway infrastructure, port reputation, costs, customs procedure efficiency, and ICT systems. As a first step, the authors identified the competitiveness factors influencing container seaports, using the literature review method. The previous related research on the topic of the Port of Rijeka is valuable, however, the seaport competitiveness factors were not elaborated in detail, which also represents a research gap. In this research, the authors aimed to investigate the factors affecting the competitiveness of container seaports and apply the research results to the case study of the Port of Rijeka.
