Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to explore the nature of firm–bank exchange. Using a qualitative research method and existing theory, by capturing transaction-based and relationship-based elements, I examine ten firms and eight different bank services important for the exchange between the firms and their banks. The study indicates that the exchange is more complex than previous theories have proclaimed, since the nature of the exchange differs when central elements of different bank services are compared. There are bank services, such as bank account and loans, which have a high degree of both t

The thesis comprises a screen play for a one hour film and dissertation examining artistic issues in the intersection of biography and history in fictional films.

Secondly the work explores the artifice of historical representation on the screen through case studies of films which are experiments in filming history and biography.

Abstract:

I propose that contemporary natural history documentary films need to incorporate multiple cultural disciplines or perspectives like critical studies, environmental philosophy, dialectical biology, and documentary film theory. A multidisciplinary nature film creates a partnership representation of humans and nature absent in natural history documentary films. I use critical rhetoric and examples from contemporary nature films to argue that a partnership nature film showing humans as part of nature and both humans and nature with respect is compatible with conservation and incompatible with a p

In late 19th century Norway, a small urban elite chose nature as a distinctive trait to define the young Norwegian nation. Ever since, this constructed nature mythology, based on real nature (dark forests, fjords and high mountains), has been a recurrent symbol equated with Norwegianness in the rhetoric of the nation. While this foundational narrative has been represented in most of the arts, it is depicted in a more complex manner in contemporary Norwegian films.

This thesis considers whether the contemporary capitalist firm can be understood in political terms independent of its association with the broader economic or political systems within which it is located.

The modern elevation of the economic role of the household to the level of society - concomitant with the emergence of government as administration - results in the social, rather than indi

Abstract:

Different styles of natural history film evoke distinct feelings and emotions about wild animals which viewers use as a basis for their perception of wildlife. I define three categories of nature film which reflect varying degrees of human-animal interaction, anthropomorphism and aesthetics: the testimonial, explanatory and non-verbal styles. Although each one is limited in its ability to represent wildlife accurately, it is important to realize that they all show animals from different perspectives (from most to least human-centered, respectively).

Abstract:

This work focuses on characterising the chiral and topological nature of magnetic skyrmions in noncentrosymmetric helimagnets. In these materials, the skyrmion lattice phase appears as a long-range-ordered, close-packed lattice of nearly millimetre-level correlation length, while the size of a single skyrmion is 3-100 nm. This is a very challenging range of lengthscales (spanning 5 orders of magnitude from tens of nm to mm) for magnetic characterisation techniques. As a result, only three methods have been proven to be applicable for characterising certain aspects of the magnetic information:

The natural history film genre has long been reliant on the commoditizing of nature's beauty as visual spectacle. Associating Tom Gunning's "cinema of attractions" to the nature film genre therefore is an appropriate way to dissect the techniques that maintain its popularity. After understanding the basic rhetorical traditions that nature films employ, it is revealed how the same outdated and over-idealized portrayals of nature continue to be recycled as new technology in methods of production and exhibition continually reinvent the nature film experience.

Over the next decade, Wilderness Alps of Stehekin became the most influential publicity tool in the struggle to preserve the North Cascades. Because of the region's geographic isolation, the film was the first time many people throughout the nation were exposed to the scenic grandeur of the area.

Retail employment is well established as a research subject in the UK, but has received comparatively little research attention in Australia. Given that retail industry employment accounts for 15 per cent of the Australian workforce, this represents a significant oversight. Within the retail industry, the supermarket and grocery sector employs 6 per cent of the Australian workforce. The sector is domin

Universidade de Lisboa<br>Natura 2000 is the pan-European network of protected areas and classifies different habitat types, including shrub-grasslands as of conservation interest. The use and management to which these habitat types are subject potentially affect their conservation status and the ecosystem services they generated, including regulating services as carbon storage or wildfire prevention. Wildfire prevention is an important ecosystem service in the Mediterranean region and management pr

Abstract:

Існують різні підходи до пояснення економічної природи фірми. Одні економісти розглядають сучасні підприємства як підсумок розвитку кооперації і розподілу праці (К. Маркс), інші вважають, що фірми – результат мінімізації ризику і невизначеності (Ф. Найт), треті пояснюють появу фірм необхідністю зменшення трансакційних витрат (Р. Коуз, О. Вільямсон). Кожна з цих теорій краще описує процеси виникнення фірм на різних етапах розвитку виробничих відносин. Теорія трансакційних витрат Р. Коуза, за яку він отримав Нобелівську премію в галузі економіки у 1991 році, є найбільш актуальною для пояснення р

Abstract:

Fire is a vital part of the taiga ecosystems and as the amount of prescribed fires increases, it is also likely that public awareness and interest in fire increases and thereby also the need for nature interpreters who can perform guided tours in these areas. This report aims to provide guidance for nature interpreters as to what information they should convey while guiding groups of people in taiga forests where fire has occurred. The methods used to study this were: 1) Interviews with conservationists who work with forest fire in some way on what information they think is important to convey

Abstract:

Geographers researching cinema have predominantly been interested in how geographic meaning is constructed and negotiated within film, but have been less productive in accounting for how these constructs are received by viewers. Using the method of observational online ethnography, I therefore investigate how fans in online reviews have interpreted the nature/society binary in the film Dersu Uzala. Working from a social constructionist view of nature I begin by deconstructing the binary as it appears in Dersu Uzala before proceeding to illustrate the way this constitutive absence is made up fo

Abstract:

Written literature has evolved significantly over the centuries. The typical novel of the twenty-first century is different in form from the novel of the mid-nineteenth. Modern novels tend to have less descriptive exposition and are less apt to follow previous conventions of omniscient narration. What factors have influenced this change? At the end of the nineteenth century, for the first time in recorded history, a new art form emerged, one that was based on the technological achievement of the recorded moving image. This study examines to what extent, and in which ways, the new art form, cin

Abstract:

The aim of this practice-based screen arts doctoral thesis is to investigate how cinematic representations of nature evoke an aesthetic of the sublime. The thesis answers this research question both through experimental film practice and critical analysis of theoretical and artistic texts. Informed by concepts such as the sublime, transcendence, the metaphysical imagination, critical realism and phenomenology, and the films Werner Herzog and Andrei Tarkovsky, this thesis investigates an organic transcendental film style.
