Abstract:

<p>This study assesses the relationship between dimensions of service quality and customer satisfaction from the perspectives of passengers that travel through Nigerian airports. Survey methodology was adopted for the study. Cross-sectional data were collected at four International airports with the aid of structured questionnaire. The questionnaire was administered to 600 passengers across Lagos, Abuja, Kano and Port-Harcourt airports with 71% response rate. Regression analyses reveal that although the relationship between each of the dimensions of service quality and customer satisfaction is significant at 5%, the multiple correlation coefficient ranges from weak to moderate thus suggesting that the dimensions of service quality requires further enhancement for customers satisfaction to be improved upon by the Airport Authority in Nigeria. The study advocate decisive action by the Airport Authority in Nigeria to initiate policies geared at enhancing dimensions of service quality for improved customer satisfaction at various Nigerian Airports.</p>

Abstract:

Abstract This study focuses on the overall airport operational performance of selected airports in Northern Nigeria using the stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) model. STATA version 7 software was used for the data analysis. Data collected from the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) from all the selected airports from 2001 to 2018 included both domestic and international passengers in the given area. The study focused on measuring the operational performance of all selected airports; its results show that none of the airports under review showed 100% level of productivity benchmark. The study recommended that the airports in the given area can improve their technical performance by reducing the unit costs as well as some other inputs to increase efficiency.

Abstract:

The Aircraft Classification Number-Pavement Classification Number method is the main approach for evaluating the structure of the airport pavement. However, the weakness of exiting methods lies in the difficulty of obtaining the exact PCN of the airport from the Airports Authority. This paper investigated the attenuation behaviors of the pavement structure under the envrionment of aircraft operation, and then the improved evaluation method for airport pavement was presented. The improved method could provide the technical support for accurately judging the bearing capacity of the exiting pavement structure and supply the decision-making reference to the Airports Authority.

Abstract:

This study analyzed and compared airport security screeners' perception of the employment system and cooperation within a company working at both Incheon and Gimpo international airports. Based on empirical research, suggestions for changes to policy were made to improve the disaster response of an airport authority. It was proven that, if the current transition policy of aviation security screeners' employment systems were implemented as planned, the efficiency of security screening would improve and the number of aviation security breaches would significantly decrease. Additionally, it was found that surveyed employees from both airports perceived that the employment transition to establish a government-owned company must be expedited to improve aviation security for effective disaster response of an airport authority.

Abstract:

Airports no longer have the luxury of operating as public utilities, secure from the competition or the demands of the global economy. Domestic deregulation of the airline industry, the inability of the federal government to achieve fully its open skies goals, the globalization and consolidation strategies of the nation's major carriers, and the globalization of the world economy in general, place airport managers and policy makers in a precarious position. This article examines the effect of these changes on the strategies and tactics of America's airports to succeed in what has become a fiercely competitive market for international air service. With the devolution of decision making authority to states and localities, airports find themselves pitted against one another in a battle for economic and political resources. Our examination suggests that airports hoping to succeed in securing or maintaining direct international access or gateway status must adopt aggressive and innovative strategies.

Abstract:

AbstractThe article considers the legal implications of a proposal by the Netherlands Government to build a new airport on an artificial island in the sea. The article concludes that the construction and use of an artificial island remains in principle within a coastal state's authority, with due regard to the rights and duties of other states and the LOS Convention and other rules of international law. Account must be taken of conflicting uses of the sea, for example, navigation, fishing, offshore activities, submarine cables and pipelines, and overflight. Freedom of overflight will be dealt with by the ICAO. With regard to other aspects of air law, such as liability and aviation security, there are no clear indicators of the appropriate course to take. The uniqueness of an airport at sea requires the Netherlands to tread new ground, requiring it to devise new ways for removing possible obstacles.

Abstract:

This article describes how to improve the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the aviation sector and also to source extra funding, the Government of India has paved the way for private investors through to a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model since the 1980s. This liberalization step in the Indian aviation market has minimized the institutional barriers which have hindered the freedom and flexibility of air transport operations among private investors. Now, competition within the aviation sector has become fiercer; the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and Public Private Partnership (PPP) in Indian airports are not only providing varied services, but also attracting consumers with new infrastructure and full modern facilities. The importance of this article is because after privatization, no studies have been conducted to examine the efficiency of Indian airports by using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). An output-oriented DEA model is employed to determine the efficiency score of airports by taking a sample of 15 airports, including airports run by PPP, for comparison. Output-oriented DEA calculates the efficiency by maximizing the outputs for a given level of inputs. Therefore, this article contributes to the existing literature on Indian airports. Based on available data, three variables - length of runways, terminal size and number of check-in counters, are used as inputs and two variables - passenger movement and aircraft movement, are used as outputs.

Abstract:

Jamaica Kincaid's Lucy and A Small PlaceThe present dissertation anlyzes the use of literature as a form of resistance to Empire in Lucy and A Small Place by the West Indian Writer Jamaica Kincaid. As a migrant writer living in the US, Kincaid has produced a counter-narrative agasinst figures of authority represented by the British colonialism and the Carbbean morherland, aiming at undermining essentialist constructions of the Caribbean. I discuss Kincaid's appropitions of Lucifer, from Milton's Paradise Lost, in the charaterization of the protagonist of Lucy, wo rebels against any form of authority. I also analyze Lucy's process of self-fashioning through art.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the determinants of a strong rule of law in post-colonial societies by comparing Jamaica and Barbados, two countries with many similarities, but with divergent outcomes concerning the rule of law. The research takes a comparative historical approach, specifically investigating the origins of the divergence of the rule of law between Jamaica and Barbados during the transition to independence. The analysis suggests that the extent of communal divisions influenced the political culture of the masses during the transition to universal suffrage in the late colonial period. This proved to be the critical factor that determined whether political violence and patronage politics were institutionalized, which ultimately led to the deterioration in the capacity of the state to promote the rule of law. Differences along four key dimensions (the extent of a race-class correlation, the extent to which the Afro-Caribbean population viewed themselves as members of the national community, the orientation of the religion of the lower classes towards the established order, and the structural conditions that facilitated the cultural autonomy of the lower classes) developed between the two islands during the early colonial period that influenced the formation of communal divisions along class lines, which in turn influenced the political culture of the masses. In Jamaica, the ethnic division between the lower and middle classes led the former to adopt a political culture that challenged the authority of the colonial state, which, combined with the inaction of colonial authorities, ultimately resulted in the establishment of a democratic political system based on violence, lawlessness and patronage that emerged during a critical period of instability on the island (the transition to both universal suffrage and independence). In Barbados, the absence of communal divisions resulted in the adoption of the dominant political culture by the masses. As such, there was broad-based acceptance of the legitimacy of legal state authority, with all major political parties appealing to the electorate on a rational basis, thereby hindering the escalation and institutionalization of political violence and clientelism. Moreover, the compatibility between the political culture and the state authority structure in Barbados provided the foundation for a strong rule of law during the post-colonial period.
Cette thèse examine les déterminants de la légitimité de la loi dans les sociétés post-coloniales à travers la comparaison entre la Barbade et la Jamaique, deux pays similaires à plusieurs niveaux, mais dont la légitimité de la loi s'exerce on ne peut plus différemment. Ce projet de recherche propose une comparaison historique, ayant pour angle une recherche des origines de cette divergence de la légitimité de la loi entre ces deux pays pendant leur transition vers l'indépendance. L'analyse propose que le degré des divisions ethniques à influencer la culture politique de la masse lors de la transition au suffrage universel vers la fin de la période coloniale. C'était le facteur critique qui a déterminé si la violence et le favoritisme politiques étaient institutionnalisés, ce qui a conduit à la détérioration de la capacité de l'état à promouvoir la légitimité de la loi. Des divergences entourant quatre éléments-clés (la présence d'une corrélation race-classe sociale, le niveau d'identification de la population Afro-Antillaise à la communauté nationale, l'orientation de la religion de la classe inférieure envers l'ordre établi, et les conditions qui ont facilité l'autonomie culturelle des classes inférieures) se sont développés entre les deux îles pendant le début de l'ère coloniale et ont influencé le développement des divisions ethniques entre les classes, entraînant une influence de la culture politique de la masse. En Jamaique, la division ethnique entre les classes moyennes et inférieures ont poussé ces dernières à adopter une culture politique qui défiait l'autorité de l'état colonial, qui, combiné avec l'inaction des autorités coloniales, a eu pour résultat l'établissement d'un système politique démocratique basé sur la violence, l'absence de lois et le patronage durant cette période critique d'instabilité sur l'île (la transition vers le suffrage universel et l'indépendance). À la Barbade, l'absence de divisions ethniques a entraîné l'adoption de la culture politique par la masse. Il y avait une large acceptation de la légitimité de l'autorité judiciaire de l'État, avec tous les principaux partis politiques faisant appel à l'électorat sur une base rationnelle, ce qui a empêché l'escalade et l'institutionnalisation de la violence politique et du favoritisme. Par ailleurs, la compatibilité entre la culture politique et la structure d'autorité de l'État à la Barbade a constitué le fondement d'une légitimité de la loi forte pendant la période post-coloniale.

Abstract:

Chapter Five surveys the varied intimate and nonmarital relationships formed between free and freed people. A comprehensive survey of more than two thousand baptism records demonstrates that Jamaica had the highest illegitimacy rate in the British Empire. One in four of the children baptized on the island was born out of wedlock. This chapter explores the confluence of factors that led to the development of a sexual culture in Jamaica that afforded unmarried women more autonomy in their intimate lives. In contrast with other colonies in British North America, Jamaica adopted a remarkably lenient approach toward female sexuality. Women also commanded more authority and wealth, largely owing to their participation in slavery. In the absence of social censure and legal repercussions, a large number of free couples established families outside of marriage. Doing so protected women’s material assets and legal autonomy, which would otherwise be comprised by coverture—a set of laws that ceded a wife’s property to her husband. Instead, colonists used baptism rather than marriage to recognize, legitimize, and even legalize intimate relationships with free and enslaved partners.

Abstract:

The book concludes in the 1760s, the era when most of the scholarship on Jamaica begins. It uses a unique set of letters written by a Euro-African woman, Mary Rose, to her former paramour and patron, Rose Fuller, to frame a moment of violence and change in the colony. Between 1760 and 1761, enslaved people launched a massive uprising called Tacky’s Revolt on the island. Tacky’s Revolt challenged slaveholder hegemony and threatened British power in Jamaica. Rose occupied a liminal position in colonial society during this moment of crisis. She was a free woman of European and African descent of middling wealth who commanded enslaved people and worked as a rancher to earn additional income. Yet, her authority was fragile and dependent on Fuller’s support. Rose thus foregrounds the precarious position occupied by free and freed women with African ancestry at a moment when some local officials, together with imperial authorities, determined that white solidary was the solution to extinguishing slave insurgencies. The local government sought to limit the material wealth held by free people of Euro-African descent. Yet, this population continued to grow, adding to the diverse group of women who remained deeply invested in slaveholding.

Abstract:

This chapter describes the history and impact of Parliament's Debt Recovery Act of 1732, which created a legal regime strengthening creditors' remedies against land and slaves throughout the British colonies in America and the West Indies. Parliament enacted the Debt Recovery Act in response to concerns among English creditors that the colonists were defeating their efforts to collect on debts by invoking traditional English legal protections to land. The merchants were interested in the laws of Virginia and Jamaica, where planters relied on credit to purchase an increasing supply of slave labor. With some exceptions, colonies relying heavily on slave labor to produce staple crops were more likely than other colonies to uphold the English protections to land and inheritance from unsecured creditors. A second concern driving Parliament's enactment of the Debt Recovery Act was that colonial legislatures might at any time enact laws characterizing slaves as “land” and thereby make the slaves legally immune from seizure by creditors under English law.

Abstract:

The Conclusion presents a review of the key findings. It draws the consistencies and the inconsistencies in the rhetoric of Prime Ministers Rao, Vajpayee, Singh and Modi. It engages in a transversal discussion of how the vocabularies of Nehru’s ‘New India’ differ from the texture of the ‘New India’ after 1991. The next section elaborates on the category of what I have called ‘Airport Literature’ (mainly because of its overwhelming presence at Indian airports). This literature celebrates India’s market liberalization and is part of the changes it seeks to glorify. The conclusion discusses how the genre of speeches speaks to this genre of literature. The last section returns to the debate of New World Orders to establish how the Indian state has attempted to recalibrate its position in the wider changing architecture of geopolitics and open markets and how the PMs as the voice of the state have attempted to legitimize their own authority as the voice of the nation.

Abstract:

The ‘Air Jamaica generation’ of migrants to the UK over the past 30 years has received less political and scholarly attention than the so-called Windrush generation. Children of this generation are often invisible in social policy discussions because they lack the legal right to paid employment, and are subject to the no recourse to public funds (NRPF) rule. This excludes them from accessing welfare provision, including most social security benefits, council housing and homelessness assistance. This chapter examines support under section 17 of the Children Act 1989, one of the few welfare entitlements which children and families with NRPF retain, arguing that, without access to mainstream social security, section 17 is an inadequate safety net to prevent poverty. The chapter concludes that this is rooted in discriminatory legislation and policy, resulting in situations which, while structural in cause, would be viewed as neglectful if perpetrated by a parent or carer.
