Abstract:

Because of the potential for development to have negative environmental impacts, one of the most important questions addressed by environmental law and policy is whether and how to allow development to proceed. In Canada this question is answered primarily through environmental impact assessment ("EIA"). At the federal level, EIAs are required under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, S.C. 1992, c. 37 ("CEAA") for certain types of proposed projects and activities. Although CEAA's purposes include fostering both a healthy environment and economy, the Act does not provide any instruction

Abstract:

This thesis locates the Australian National English Curriculum in its political, pedagogical, intellectual and historical contexts. It argues that the tripartite structure of the Curriculum into language, literature and literacy is the result of a flawed pedagogy pointing to wider ideological conflicts over curricula and that this structure undermines a coherent and pedagogically sound approach to the teaching of English in schools.

Abstract:

The dissertation begins with an introductory chapter that examines the short story cycle as a specific genre, outlines tendencies found in minimalist fiction, and discusses proposed definitions of the short story genre. The introduction examines the problems that short story theorists encounter when they try to.define the short story genre in general. Part of the problem results from the lack of a definition of the short story in the Aristotelian sense of a definition. A looser, less traditional definition of literary genres helps solve some of the problem. Minimalist fiction and the short sto

This thesis examines the law relating to informal promises concerning the disposition of property on death. These promises are referred to as testamentary promises. Part I examines the social background to testamentary promises, the safeguards provided by the law of wills and the problems associated with informal testamentary promises. It is concluded that the law should respond to the social problems created by unfulfilled testamentary promises, but that this response must be tempered by a recognition of the dangers involved in enforcing informal promises outside the law of wills and by the n

Abstract:

The primary aim of the dissertation is to introduce a new theory of promissory obligation, the authority theory. The authority theory holds that promises are obligatory because they are commands we give ourselves, as authorities over ourselves. I motivate the theory by arguing that traditional views of promising can't explain promises we make to ourselves.In the first chapter I introduce and detail the notion of a promissory obligation. I briefly recount some of the history of the Western philosophical views of promissory obligations, focusing on the Natural Law tradition from the Stoics, thro

Abstract:

In the last decade the number of countries that have enacted Freedom of Information (FOI) laws have increased dramatically. In many respects FOI laws have become a democratic right of passage. No FOI, no proper democracy. The promises of FOI regimes are far-reaching: access to personal information and increased transparency in the form of third-party independent access to government-held information will prevent corruption and maladministration and encourage the public to participate more fully in the political process. But are the promises borne out by the practice of FOI? To answer thi

Abstract:

The focus of this study is the investigation of Retirement Villages as a housing choice for older people. Retirement Villages, a selective form of gated community, provide homes for an age specific group and are a move away from the individual, suburban housing that New Zealanders have traditionally preferred. Growth has been rapid during the 1990s with around 3% of those over the age of 65 now living in Retirement Villages. A gap in the social research undertaken on the impact of these Villages on our society is apparent, especially the effect such a different form of housing has on older peo

Abstract:

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Times} Thomas Scanlon provides a theory of why we ought to keep our promises according to which the wrong of breaking a promise is a moral wrong that does not depend on any social practice. Instead a promise provides a recipient with assurance and the value of assurance establishes a moral obligation to keep our promises. However, it is often charged that theories like Scanlon’s are untenable because they are subject to a vicious circularity. I address some recent critics of Scanlon’s theory, all of whom maintain that his account does not a

Malfunctions and unavailability may threaten vital areas of our society, life and work at any time. The two massive challenges of software are one hand the complexity of the software and on the other hand the disruptive environment.

The first part contains a historical and theoretical analysis of El Salvador from the time of conquest until the 1980s.

Recent events suggest Islamism is a relatively new trend; however, Islamist organizations have functioned in the Middle East as entrenched social movements, religious groups, and even political parties since the onset of the 20th century. Moreover, the portrayal of these organizations as stagnant or reified is inaccurate; these groups often display both verbal and behavioural signs of tactical, strategic, and in some cases, ideological change over time.

We are told that society changes. It evolves toward a more fluid, active and horizontal form of socialisation (Bauman, 2000; Castells, 2009; Sheller & Urry, 2006; Urry, 2000; Wittel, 2001). As much as a change in the social, it is also a change in the conception sociology gives to the sociality and society as large. There is a shift in social theory with recent raises of post-demographic perspective, and postmodernism (Latour, 2005, 2011, 2013; Ruppert, Law, & Savage, 2013).Along these, post changes, another revolution takes place, in the use of new technology and mainly the Web.
