Abstract:

This thesis investigates the British state’s approach to industrial relations reform which culminated in the Industrial Relations Act 1971. It highlights the intention of state managers to reconfigure the relationship between the state, capital and labour. The Act represents an attempt to discipline the latter through a reliance on the ostensibly independent nature of the law, thus curtailing the militant tendencies associated with trade unions. While there is a large secondary literature on the Act, there is as yet no analysis based on the study of primary documents (Cabinet, Department of Em

Abstract:

Differential operation of the Global Positioning System (GPS) has proved to offer superior positioning accuracy over unaided GPS. The nature of Differential GPS (DGPS) requires correction data to be sent from a reference station or a network of reference stations to the GPS user in the field. Since it cannot be assumed that the GPS user is close to a telephone or data line, wireless communications technologies must be used to provide the GPS user with DGPS corrections. As very little crossover work has been done between the GPS experts and the data communications experts, there is a real nee

Abstract:

The Donovan Report (1965-1968) is often seen as one of the great failures in the overall attempt to deal with the thorny problem of the contentious nature of industrial relations in post-war Britain. This thesis re-examines that report and subsequent governmental responses, using numerous sources, many of which have barely been used by previous authors, in order to establish where it all went wrong. Such an examination is important to inform future governments on some of the problems of trying to legislate on industrial relations matters. This thesis addresses the central question addressed by

Abstract:

Strong private property rights to land are recognised as fundamental to the economic growth of a country's legal system. Legal reform of inadequate and inefficient property rights laws is therefore essential. My thesis aims to address the lack of legal reform of the laws governing property rights to land in Nigeria. It does this by critically examining the Land Use Act set up as the primary body of legislation governing property rights in Nigeria.The thesis seeks to offer meaningful insights by proposing an institutional analysis of the limitations to reform of existing laws governing property

Despite this pivotal role played by rural women, they experience grave problems under communal tenure, most notably in relation to access to and use of land and productive resources. Research has shown that the majority of rural households in South Africa derive significant proportions of their livelihoods from land-based activities, and that the value of common property resources associated with land, for example livestock produc

Abstract:

Since the mid 1980s performance-based planning has been actively promoted as a way of achieving more sustainable land-use planning outcomes in Australian cities and regions. The benefits of a more integrated, flexible approach to land-use planning appear to offer a compelling alternative to the rigid and blunt silo style of land-use planning that has shaped and defined the (increasingly unsustainable) morphology of Australian settlements since federation. In theory at least performance-based planning offers the possibility of achieving more sustainable planning outcomes by engendering innovati

Performance based planning is a form of planning regulation that is not well understood and the theoretical advantages of this type of planning are rarely achieved in practice. Normatively, this type of regulation relies on performance standards that are quantifiable and technically based which are designed to manage the effects of development, where performance standards provide certainty in respect of the level of performance and the means of achievement is flexible. Few empirical studies have attempted to examine how performance based planning has been conceptualised and implemented in prac
