Abstract:

This thesis draws from data collected over thirteen months of fieldwork working with “Boaters”, a boat-dwelling itinerant group on the waterways of Southern England. In the first of three parts, the thesis focusses on the individual motivations (economic, personal and political) behind becoming a travelling Boater, and on how one acquires the requisite skills and knowledge to become part of a community of practice on the waterways. Boaters on the whole do not have a sense of being an ethnically distinct group and, as such, this thesis interrogates what kind of an identity is being created or r

Abstract:

Canals, society and engineered waterscapes. A comparative study between the Veneto region, Catalonia and South - West England. The reorganization and control of water flows are among the most significant transformations of natural elements caused by human activities. Waterways are not only environmental quality facilities, but also linear paths of high cultural value, where, thanks to the interaction between natural element and human intervention, we can identify types of landscape. Today, many researchers consider landscapes not only as the way in which people perceive their own reality,

Abstract:

There are over 3,000 miles of navigable inland waterways in England and Wales, managed mainly by the Canal and River Trust, which promotes their use for various leisure activities. Canals have undergone a radical transformation in their use and purpose, from being important transport links in the 18th and 19th centuries, to largely being left derelict. During the 20th century, however, the canals have been transformed from an obsolete infrastructure into a modern leisurescape used by various individuals, groups and stakeholders.

This thesis examines the factors that contribute to the bail decision-making process in English and Canadian courts. Despite the fact that bail contributes to rising prison remand populations, influences the lives of legally innocent defendants, and is central to assessments of human rights, very little is known about this process. England and Canada were ideal jurisdictions with which to explore this issue as that their similar bail laws and divergent practices related to pre-trial custody reflected different patterns of bail decision-making.

Abstract:

This thesis examines various aspects of English and Canadian charity law in terms of their relationship with the contested categories of ‘public law’ and ‘private law’. It argues that the law of charities can be regarded as a hybrid legal discipline in both a general or categorical sense, and in the context-specific or functional sense that both the conditions for obtaining charitable status, and the regulation of the conduct of charities and their trustees, are continually being adjusted in such a way as to maintain in a broad sense a functional equilibrium between individual project pursuit

Interannual variability of temperature and cyclone frequencies for Eastern Canada and the New England States have been investigated for the winter seasons 1931-32 to 1984-85.

The seasonal average temperature has remained fairly stable during the research period. However, the Temperature Variability Index (TVI) suggests that the interannual variability of

Abstract:

Difficult human childbirth is often explained to be the outcome of long term evolutionary hanges in the genus Homo resulting in an‘obstetrical dilemma,’defined as the compromise between the need for a large pelvis in birthing large brained babies and a narrow pelvis for the mechanics of bipedal locomotion (Washburn, 1960). The ‘obstetrical dilemma’ is argued to result in the risk of cephalopelvic disproportion and injury (Washburn, 1960). Current research challenges the premise of the obstetrical dilemma by considering the effects ecological factors have on the growth of the bony human pelvis
