The aim of this paper is to identify the factors that contribute to the successful funding of crowdfunding projects, with a focus on conventional, social media and affective factors. Our unique dataset contains 267,830 Kickstarter projects from the U.S., Australia, Canada, the U.K., and Europe. In addition to determinants based on conventional factors, we study the textual characteristics of a project’s description and comments, including sentiment and emotional cues, extracted using a web scraper. We find that social media factors (such as social networks, comments on projects, the experience and social media capital of the project founder) as well as affective factors (emotional cues and sentiment related to project description) influence the success of projects in addition to the conventional determinants such as the funding goal, funding project duration, and project category. Our results are stable when we control for partial time periods, the geographic origin of the founder, and the founder’s social media capital and experience.

The problem of monetary and fiscal policy coordination is discussed both in countries with independent economic policies and in countries with a single currency. The aim of this article is to discuss and empirically assess the interaction of monetary and fiscal policy in Slovakia from Q1/2000 to Q2/2013, identify significant macroeconomic variables influencing the decisions of main economic-policy authorities in the analysed country and make conclusions concerning the cooperation of monetary and fiscal policies using the game theory approach. In the article, regression analysis and ordinary least squares methods are used. According to the empirical results, the conflict between monetary and fiscal policy in Slovakia is identified. The stabilizing role of fiscal policy and problematic stabilizing role of monetary policy is confirmed. It contrasts with the other states of the Visegrad group.
