Abstract:
ONE of the most difficult questions facing English courts as they develop the common law right to privacy recognised by the House of Lords in Campbell v. MGN Ltd. is whether and, if so, when a person might have a reasonable expectation of privacy in a public place. Should an individual have a cause of action if she is photographed as she leaves her mother’s funeral or as he receives medical attention after an accident? Or should there be an absolute rule which says that there is no privacy in a public space? Recent decisions in England and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) suggest that it is no longer an answer (if it ever was) simply to say that the disclosure concerned something which took place in public. A more difficult question therefore remains: if the existence of a privacy interest does not depend on the nature of the space in which claimants find themselves, how do we determine whether a person does have a legitimate privacy interest?

Abstract:
Public places, viewed as a core component of cities for centuries, have become a field of research subject to broad concern for more than two decades. Typically under the influence of globalisation and privatisation, attractive and alluring public places have been placed at the centre of both major world and old-industrial cities, competing in search of new niches in competitive urban markets The research undertaken in this thesis represents an inquiry into the nature of public places in Northern Ireland. Its scope is threefold. First, it proposes a means of conceptualising the publicness of public place as a social, historical and cultural product, with publicness defined as the sum of characteristics that make a public place perceived as being public. Second, to create a methodology that acknowledges that there is no homogenous public with a singular standardised experience of public place, and conduct an empirical study that understands the individuality and temporal dynamics that are at work within public places. Third, it tests this methodology on several public place case studies across Northern Ireland to better understand the unique myriad of issues which influence the perceived publicness of public places in Northern Ireland, such as the social turbulent period colloquially referred to as the Troubles. The thesis, informed by the research methodology of new institutionalism, is founded on the understanding that publicness is more complex than perhaps initially understood. Publicness may be understood as a cultural reality and a historical artefact. All public places have been created at a certain time within a specific sociocultural setting, with Madanipour (2003) asserting that public places reflect the society in which they are located. In addition to the cultural reality, public places are shaped by the incidents and events that occur within them with peoples' perceptions of the place being influenced by their own personal experiences or insights of the place. Subsequently, the public place is a historical artefact in a constant state of 'becoming'. This understanding of public places was adopted to study the socially turbulent context of Northern Ireland. The socially embedded sectarianism and segregation that inhibits social interaction between communities, manifested most profoundly within the residential segregation that is prevalent in many urban areas, has had a severe impact upon perceived publicness of public places. The delicately balanced post-conflict society provides an interesting juxtaposition of simmering conflict and waking peace with public places seemingly taking the stage as the fulcrum of the delicate balance that exists within perceived publicness. The social contestation over land and space has had a profound impact on perceptions of ownership but also control and identity of public places to create urban areas in which people 'know one's place'.

Abstract:
With the increasing development of economy and society in China, uses of public urban places have been changed by an incredible pace, especially in Beijing, the capital of China. The public space in local urban environment plays a significant role for catering to people's functional, social and leisure needs. The focus of this research is to explore the relationship between the retail-oriented public places and people's use within three selected study sites in Beijing, Wangfujing Street, Sanlitun Village, and The Place, and to examine the retail public spaces which can satisfy the physical and psychological needs of people when they take activity in such places. Through literature review to analyse the theoretical issues on different factors, such as culture, urban design, physical setting, historical context, and contemporary use, and especially the retail public places developed in Chinese context, etc. and to establish the awareness of what the research subject refer to and what such places people like to use. And then focus on the public life in the city of Beijing in practice with the aim of finding out how these retail-oriented public places are understood, managed and used, including the use and quality of design amenities for sitting, circulation, and related activities by local people in urban environment. To address this research, a qualitative research methodology is adopted mainly involves observation, interview, and small number of questionnaire. The mixed-methods approach is undertaken by using behaviour mapping and user perception to understand the public environment as a combination of patterns of behaviour and patterns of the physical environment.

The urban network is no longer the primary space for and means of communication as it was before the introduction of television, computers and other electronic media; its role needs reevaluation. This thesis offers a brief summary of public places, considering their physical and institutional development and their dimensional and functional characteristics as a determining factor in their success. Examples are used to demonstrate the relevance of continuity within the city as well as the importance of a prOjected institutional image. These observations and analyses become the platform from which a proposal for the new entrance to MIT at Kendall Square is developed. The main element of the proposal is the MIT Museum, which houses the world's largest holography collection. The site, located at the threshold where the Massachusetts Institute of Technology meets the city of Cambridge, plays an important role in the life of the Institute, and it informs MIT's relationship to Cambridge and Boston, becoming a significant public joint at the scale of the city, both formally and functionally.<br>by Zsuzsanna Gaspar.<br>M.Arch.

Abstract:
I århundraden har gator haft ett ekonomiskt, medborgerligt, kulturellt, socialt och politiskt värde. Gator var tidigare de främsta ‘platserna’ där människor samlades för att umgås, handla och koppla av. Men från 1950-talet och framåt, då antalet motoriserade fordon började ta fart, har gatornas funktion som ‘plats’ förbisetts. Som ett resultat har gator utformats och planerats för ett enda syfte, det vill säga flödet av fordonstrafik. Men i takt med ett växande intresse för social och urban hållbarhet har den moderna gatans roll och funktion i våra städer ifrågasatts. Kritiken har ofta riktats mot att gator under de senaste årtiondena endast behandlats som korridorer för trafikflöden fastän de kan erbjuda så många fler funktioner. Diskussionen har därför till stor del handlat om behovet av ett skifte från gata som en länk eller en trafikled till gata som en plats eller en destination. Under senare år har olika begrepp såsom ”gator för människor” och ”gator som platser” fått stor uppmärksamhet. Dessa koncept syftar till att utgå från människor vid utformning och planering av gator. Exempel från hela världen visar hur allt fler städer tar gator i anspråk och omformar dessa till just platser för människor. I Stockholm exempelvis finns det en tradition sedan år 2015 att tillfälligt omforma konventionella bilgator till sommargågator för människor under sommarhalvåret.  Syftet med denna studie är att mäta och utvärdera det offentliga livet och de rumsliga kvaliteterna före och efter den temporära utformningen av Rörstrandsgatan och Skånegatan till sommargågator i Stockholm. Vidare är fokus för denna studie att utforska nyckelbegrepp och teorier för hur man utformar ”gator som platser”. De två huvudfrågorna som ska besvaras i denna studie är:  (1) Hur förändras det offentliga stadslivet och de offentliga rumsliga kvaliteterna före och efter den tillfälliga omformningen av Rörstrandsgatan och Skånegatan till sommargågator? (2) Vilka är nyckelbegreppen och de viktigaste teorierna inom stadsplanering för diskussionen om ”gator som platser”? I denna studie har två metoder använts; direkt observation och litteraturstudie. Direkt observation följer Jan Gehls observationsmetod. Det är en metod som används för att studera samspelet mellan det offentliga rummet och det offentliga stadslivet genom att använda en kombination av flera olika verktyg. Dessa verktyg kan i sin tur användas för att mäta det offentliga stadslivet på olika sätt. En litteraturstudie har också använts för att samla information om olika teorier för hur man skapar gator där människor vill vistas och spendera tid.  Resultaten i denna studie visar att sommargator har en positiv inverkan på det offentliga stadslivet. Exempelvis noterades fler sociala interaktioner mellan människor, antalet aktiviteter som ägde rum ökade också vilket gjorde gatan livligare under hela dagen. Resultatet visar också att människor dröjer sig kvar och stannar till en längre stund på sommargågatorna.<br>For centuries streets have had an economic, civic, cultural, social and political value. Streets used to be the major ’places’ where people gathered to socialize, trade and relax. However, since the growth of motorized vehicles started in the 1950s, the ‘place’ function of streets has been overlooked. As a result, streets have been planned for one major purpose only, that is, the mobility of vehicular traffic. However, with today’s growing emphasis on urban and social sustainability, it is being recognized that there is a need to shift the function of streets and instead favor the ‘place function’ over the ‘traffic function’. Streets are much more than corridors of vehicular movement. In recent years, concepts such as ‘streets for people’ and ‘streets as places’ have gained much attention. These concepts aim to put people first in the design of streets. All around the world cities are reclaiming streets as public spaces for people. In Stockholm, for example, conventional streets are temporarily redesigned as summer pedestrian streets during the summer. The purpose of this study is to measure and evaluate the success of public life and public space qualities before and after the temporary redesign of Rörstrandsgatan and Skånegatan into summer pedestrian streets in the city of Stockholm, Sweden. Further on, the focus of this study is also to explore key concepts and main theories of how to design ‘streets as places’. The two research questions to be answered in this study are: (1) How does public life and public space qualities change before and after the temporary redesign of Rörstrandsgatan and Skånegatan into summer pedestrian streets? (2) What are the key concepts and main urban planning theories needed in the discussion of ‘streets as places’? For this study two methods were used; direct observation and literature review. Direct observation follows Jan Gehl’s method of observation. It is a method used for studying the interaction of public space and public life by using a combination of multiple public life tools. Overall, these tools can be used to measure public life in various ways. Literature review was used to determine the fundamental factors that contributes to make streets places where people want to spend time and linger.  The results show that summer pedestrian streets have a positive impact on public life. For example, more social interactions were observed, the amount of activities taking place also increased making the street more lively throughout the day. The result also shows that people stay a longer time on the summer pedestrian streets and linger.

Abstract:
The purpose of the critical review is understood to be a critical reflection and comment on the work presented in the papers. The critical review is centred on the papers, as they form the substance of the submission, and the wider tobacco control literature. This review has not attempted to re-analyse the findings of the studies but attempts to draw wider lessons from the studies and to contribute to the future implementation of tobacco control policy and programmes. It will be claimed that the contribution to the research studies, the publications and the critical review represents a significant body of work and contribution to the advancement of knowledge in tobacco control. The aim of the thesis is to present and critically review six publications on the social de-normalisation of tobacco use, as it relates to public and private smoke-free environments and professional engagement in Scotland. The publications are treated as a coherent body of tobacco control research and draw upon three studies conducted over the period 1999-2007. Breathing Space Study 1: 1999-2002 evaluated an intervention which aimed to produce a significant shift in community norms towards non-smoking in a lowincome area. A process evaluation, as part of a quasi-experimental design, was undertaken in the intervention area, using a range of qualitative methods, including observation, in-depth interviews and focus groups. Papers 1 and 2 explore the context of health promotion professional practice in the development and implementation of tobacco control interventions in one disadvantaged community. The Qualitative Community Study 2: 2005-2007 aimed to explore the impact of the Scottish smoke-free legislation on attitudes and behaviour, at both individual and community levels, in four socio-economically contrasting localities in Scotland. A longitudinal qualitative evaluation was conducted using observation, in-depth interviews with smokers and ex-smokers, key stakeholders and focus groups. Papers 3 and 4 explore qualitative differences in the experience of smoke-free legislation in advantaged and disadvantaged communities, with particular consideration of the unintended consequences of the legislation for some smokers. The Smoke-free Homes Study 3: 2006-2007 aimed to describe changes in smoking behaviour and attitudes to smoking following implementation of the smoke-free legislation. It sought to identify the potential enablers and barriers to reducing SHS exposure in the home. A cross-sectional study was conducted using qualitative interviews. Papers 5 and 6 explore the changing discourses about second-hand smoke exposure, and the development of smoking restrictions in the home, with a particular focus on motivation to protect children. In addition, insight into the changing culture of professional practice in creating smoke-free homes was gained. Key findings A synthesis of key findings from these publications supports the identification of three major themes: the experience of power at each stage of the process of the social de-normalisation of tobacco use; the experience of stigmatisation of smoking as a consequence of policy; and health promotion practice as both barrier to and enabler of the implementation of smoke-free environments in the community and the home. The thesis also highlights the benefits and challenges of two research methodologies, process evaluation and qualitative longitudinal research (QLLR), in capturing both intended and unanticipated aspects of policy and practice implementation. This synthesis of the key findings that cut across the three studies has generated four research questions that are explored in this critical review: 1. How can policy be evaluated in community settings and in the home? 2. How do smokers, particularly disadvantaged smokers, engage with tobacco control policies and interventions? 3. Is professional practice a barrier or facilitator to understanding the impact of tobacco control policies and interventions? 4. What are some of the key unintended consequences of recent tobacco control policies? Conclusion This thesis contributes to knowledge through a critical account of the reshaping of smoking as a collective lifestyle, in both public and private domains. The social de-normalisation of tobacco use is experienced differently in advantaged and disadvantaged social contexts. Population tobacco control strategies may benefit from contextual adjustments, particularly for those smokers who live in areas of disadvantage and thus experience dual stigmatisation. Additionally, the effectiveness of future interventions would be enhanced by a more nuanced understanding of smoking behaviour, as a collective social practice, embedded in specific spaces, places and times.

Abstract:
Thesis: M.C.P., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Urban Studies and Planning, 2017.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 56-58).<br>The public realm is an important element of any city. Urban design theorists like Allan Jacobs have described in detail how public spaces can serve city inhabitants with physical comfort and social amenities. Meanwhile, urban political theorists like Henri LeFebvre have pointed out that public space is a crucial platform for the establishment of a democratic and equitable public sphere. What happens to these functions when physical public space is overlaid by a virtual dimension accessible only through digital devices? The huge popularity of Pokemon Go, a mobile smartphone game released in 2016, shows how significantly an urban place can be changed by a digital game. At that time, a flood of news reports and anecdotes from the US and around the world described a sudden army of urban explorers filling previously underutilized parks and having serendipitous encounters with friends and strangers. This thesis explores in detail how the physical and political functions of urban public space were impacted by the release of Pokemon Go. This is important in order for urban planners and public officials to fully understand the positive and negative implications of virtual worlds that interact with the "real" world, and may be widespread in the future. Performing a survey of public-space-related behaviors and attitudes among Pokemon Go players, this research set out to test whether Pokemon Go helped to further the environmental and political functions of public space. The results show that Pokemon Go's effects vary considerably depending on the specific location and on the attitude of the individual. Nevertheless, it is shown that Pokemon Go's release caused significant positive and negative changes in peoples' use of public space, with a particularly pronounced effect on players. Furthermore, deliberate interventions using the game have the potential to make cities more equitable and their citizens more engaged.<br>by Scott Margeson.<br>M.C.P.

Tweet, Justin S., Vincent L. Santucci, Kenneth Convery, Jonathan Hoffman, and Laura Kirn. Channel Islands National Park: Paleontological resource inventory (public version). National Park Service, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.36967/nrr-2278664.

Full text
Abstract:
Channel Island National Park (CHIS), incorporating five islands off the coast of southern California (Anacapa Island, San Miguel Island, Santa Barbara Island, Santa Cruz Island, and Santa Rosa Island), has an outstanding paleontological record. The park has significant fossils dating from the Late Cretaceous to the Holocene, representing organisms of the sea, the land, and the air. Highlights include: the famous pygmy mammoths that inhabited the conjoined northern islands during the late Pleistocene; the best fossil avifauna of any National Park Service (NPS) unit; intertwined paleontological and cultural records extending into the latest Pleistocene, including Arlington Man, the oldest well-dated human known from North America; calichified “fossil forests”; records of Miocene desmostylians and sirenians, unusual sea mammals; abundant Pleistocene mollusks illustrating changes in sea level and ocean temperature; one of the most thoroughly studied records of microfossils in the NPS; and type specimens for 23 fossil taxa. Paleontological research on the islands of CHIS began in the second half of the 19th century. The first discovery of a mammoth specimen was reported in 1873. Research can be divided into four periods: 1) the few early reports from the 19th century; 2) a sustained burst of activity in the 1920s and 1930s; 3) a second burst from the 1950s into the 1970s; and 4) the modern period of activity, symbolically opened with the 1994 discovery of a nearly complete pygmy mammoth skeleton on Santa Rosa Island. The work associated with this paleontological resource inventory may be considered the beginning of a fifth period. Fossils were specifically mentioned in the 1938 proclamation establishing what was then Channel Islands National Monument, making CHIS one of 18 NPS areas for which paleontological resources are referenced in the enabling legislation. Each of the five islands of CHIS has distinct paleontological and geological records, each has some kind of fossil resources, and almost all of the sedimentary formations on the islands are fossiliferous within CHIS. Anacapa Island and Santa Barbara Island, the two smallest islands, are primarily composed of Miocene volcanic rocks interfingered with small quantities of sedimentary rock and covered with a veneer of Quaternary sediments. Santa Barbara stands apart from Anacapa because it was never part of Santarosae, the landmass that existed at times in the Pleistocene when sea level was low enough that the four northern islands were connected. San Miguel Island, Santa Cruz Island, and Santa Rosa Island have more complex geologic histories. Of these three islands, San Miguel Island has relatively simple geologic structure and few formations. Santa Cruz Island has the most varied geology of the islands, as well as the longest rock record exposed at the surface, beginning with Jurassic metamorphic and intrusive igneous rocks. The Channel Islands have been uplifted and faulted in a complex 20-million-year-long geologic episode tied to the collision of the North American and Pacific Places, the initiation of the San Andreas fault system, and the 90° clockwise rotation of the Transverse Ranges, of which the northern Channel Islands are the westernmost part. Widespread volcanic activity from about 19 to 14 million years ago is evidenced by the igneous rocks found on each island.

Velasques de Paula Machado, Fabiana. Does Inequality Breed Altruism or Selfishness? Gauging Individuals' Predispositions towards Redistributive Schemes. Inter-American Development Bank, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0011378.

Full text
Abstract:
While decreasing inequality is generally considered desirable, and there is a growing understanding of which policies do and do not promote equality, much less is known regarding why these policies are adopted to varying degrees of intensity in different times and places. To explain this variation, the constituencies for different policies under various conditions must be identified. This paper explores that question using Brazilian public opinion data on preferences regarding taxation, conditional cash transfers, pension schemes and educations. It is found that disagreement across socio-economic groups arises on how government should address inequality rather than whether it should do so. While poorer respondents support cash transfers more than the rich, the rich are more likely than the poor to support expenditures on public education. Contrary to what is commonly assumed, inequality seems to breed altruism among the rich regarding the quintessential poverty reduction scheme of conditional cash transfers.

Abstract:
Artificial intelligence is said to be transforming the global economy and society in what some dub the “fourth industrial revolution.” This data brief analyzes media representations of AI and the alignments, or misalignments, with job postings that include the AI-related skills needed to make AI a practical reality. This potential distortion is important as the U.S. Congress places an increasing emphasis on AI. If government funds are shifted away from other areas of science and technology, based partly on the representations that leaders and the public are exposed to in the media, it is important to understand how those representations align with real jobs across the country.

Full text
Abstract:
Accelerating digitalization is one of the cross-cutting strategies identified in the Philippine Development Plan 2023-2028. To ensure that the benefits of digitalization benefit everyone, widespread adoption of the internet is essential. This study provides an overview of the concepts and strategies that have been employed to increase broadband adoption. It then presents the state of broadband services in the Philippines and discusses the policies and strategies at the national and community level, including initiatives to provide relevant online services and content. The government has in place a National Broadband Plan, a a coherent set of proposed policy, regulatory, and infrastructure interventions to ensure the delivery of universal, fast, reliable, affordable broadband internet services. While significant reforms have been introduced in recent years and additional measures are planned, the implementation of government programs has been less than satisfactory. There is a need to revisit the design of Free Wi-Fi for All to ensure that the country’s flagship universal access program will fulfill its objectives, given the substantial public funding that is being allocated for internet services in public places. Moreover, with satellite technologies and service providers now available, connecting GIDAs to the internet is no longer insurmountable. To better understand the development of broadband in the Philippines, a broadband map should be developed. More comprehensive data will also help uncover digital connectivity disparities among specific sectors or groups and guide the development of more targeted solutions.

Wilson, Nicole, and Leah Rosenzweig. Growth or Goods: Examining Tax Morale Among Property Owners in Lagos. Institute of Development Studies, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ictd.2022.016.

Full text
Abstract:
What motivates property owners to pay taxes in places where state enforcement is weak? Using an online experiment among property owners in Lagos, Nigeria, we evaluate the extent to which different appeals increase respondents’ tax morale, their willingness to pay taxes if there is no enforcement, and attitudes about government enforcement of tax collection. Respondents were randomly assigned to read either a vignette emphasising the role of property tax revenue in contributing to economic growth and increased property values, or one highlighting that tax revenue is used for public goods and services benefiting all residents. The growth message made respondents significantly more favourable towards enforcement of tax collection, but there was no difference in willingness to pay between the two treatment conditions. We also look at heterogeneity across class identification and attitudes toward redistribution, and find that support for a more equal society reduces the advantage of the growth appeal.

Abstract:
How can a socially defined project facilitate meaningful knowledge transfer between community, corporate and institution? In order to address this question, this paper focuses on an ongoing live project in suburban Auckland New Zealand begun in 2010, undertaken by a post-graduate student and researcher collective. The collective currently creates subtle interventions sited within local cyberspace, and through this current project will employ impermanent and small-scale design to advocate for a series of neglected and disputed sites. It explores the impact and value the presence of artists and designers working within local communities can have, and “champions the role of the artist in the development of the public realm, and their intuitive response to spaces, places, people and wildlife” (Wood 2009, p.26). The significance of this project is that it promotes a collaborative and multidisciplinary methodology that works with community groups to advocate to corporate entities for a wider social and environmental awareness of specific sites. This paper aims to explain the processes and findings of the project to date through both its successes and failures. It also proposes the possibility of the methodology being transferred to undergraduate and post-graduate study as a tool to promote multi-disciplined collaborate project briefs that focus on community well being.
