Abstract:

La radio pública se ha modificado y ha luchado para desarrollarse ante barreras jurídicas y comerciales establecidas por un Estado carente de interés por ofrecer una programación de calidad y utilidad social a las audiencias. Las defensorías emergen ante la necesidad de crear un vínculo entre los medios de comunicación y la sociedad civil para que el público conozca sus derechos y que el gobierno garantice los deberes políticos hacia la audiencia. El defensor de la audiencia actúa como un medio para la construcción de una ciudadanía democrática pues su trabajo no solo radica en difundir info

Abstract:

This thesis explores the extent to which, and the ways in which, KCC Live, a volunteer youth-led community radio station situated in Knowsley, neighbouring Liverpool, UK, provides a space for young people to find and realise their voices. The body of geographical work on radio has predominantly focussed on large-scale geopolitical questions at the international scale. In particular, there has been a deficit of research considering community radio in the UK. Research from other countries is not easily transferable, due to the specific regulatory paradigms in different countries. This study take

The thesis is a case study of KUOP, FM, Stockton- Modesto, an affiliate of National Public Radio (NPR) and Public Radio International (PRI). The study employed rhetorical criticism, a member survey, and participant observation. First, a critical review of the audience research literature and the electronic discussions of public radio professionals revealed the discursive struggles concerning mission, service, community, and audience. Second, a survey of KUOP's members was used to compare KUOP with the national "norm," as developed within public radio audience research. Third, these findings we

Abstract:

News interviews are core within current practices of journalism. They point to the existence of a mediated public space and bolster the concept of democratic accountability. This research investigates what impact these concepts have on the news interviews broadcast by the Today programme (BBC Radio 4) and how interaction within them invoked the public. The programme has a responsibility to uphold the democratic life of the UK, making it a compelling focus of research.

Abstract:

The criminal Black male stereotype, cemented in early American literature, has been perpetuated in movies, TV shows, and now on mainstream radio. For this study, Billboard song lyrics were analyzed for three main themes—violence, misogyny, and drugs/alcohol. Billboard song rankings are based on digital download sales, radio airplay, and Internet streaming. The researcher found that the songs played on hip hop and rap genre radio stations con-tained lyrics that strongly correlated with the three themes.

Purpose: The main purpose of this study is to assess whether some micro factors play important roles on the changes of Common Equity Tier One Capital Ratio (between the bank accounting value and the stress testing results under the adverse scenarios). Our secondary purpose is to investigate if our empirical results will help to pro

Abstract:

Second language learners (SLLs) are students at risk for negative outcomes in preschool. Theoretical statements from systems theory and the ecological model of inclusive education indicate that a main focus of interest when supporting children should be the preschool environment that surrounds them. The purpose of this study is to describe and compare structures and processes in preschool settings that are presupposed by theory to have an impact on children’s functioning, along with children’s outcomes in preschool units with different proportions of SLLs.

Abstract:

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a type of Dementia and a neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by the gradual degrading of both memory and cognitive functions. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of AD is increasing globally. Currently, AD is the sixth leading cause of mortality in the United States. As the ageing population increases in the United States, it is possible that AD will move up the ladder in the top cause of mortality. Although the prevalence of AD in most urban parts of developed nations such as the United States is widely known, li

Abstract:

L’Union européenne refonde entièrement le dispositif de contrôle prudentiel des organismes d’assurance dans le cadre de la Directive Solvabilité II. En cours de mise en place, la Directive, qui peut être comparée à la norme prudentielle bancaire Bâle II, a surtout été analysée sous l’angle des techniques actuarielles. Mais la réforme soulève aussi des enjeux sociopolitiques importants. En instituant un nouveau contrôle sectoriel des risques, les assureurs – véritables inventeurs du dispositif – démontrent la portée politique de la théorie de l’auditabilité formulée par Power.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the relationship between demographic ageing, as captured by temporal, within-country variation in the ratio of elderly to the working-age population – the dependency ratio – on citizens’ support for the welfare state. The research problem is vitally relevant considering the worsening demographic structure of advanced democracies, a process that is having considerable ramifications on the possibilities of financing comprehensive welfare states. Using a time-series cross-sectional design, and building on representative survey data from 13 advanced democracies, the thesis spe

<p>The purpose of the project, which led to this thesis, was to investigate the possible effects different horizontal Fields of View (FoV) have on driving performance when driving at night with a Vision Enhancement System (VES). The FoV chosen to be examined were 12 degree and 24 degree FoV, both displayed on a screen with the horizontal size of 12 degree FoV. This meant that the different conditions of FoV also had different display ratios 1:1 and 1:2. No effort was made to separate these parameters. </p><p>A simulator study was performed at the simulator at IKP, Linköping University. Sixteen

Abstract:

The present master thesis has its start point on Nicklas Luhmann's system theory and political science in David Easton to demonstrate that the legal system interacts with society through structural couplings, creating binding precedents through existing normative consolidation or, alternatively, from current legal system. One of the key points of the thesis is the participation of the amicus curiae as a legitimizing element of the binding precedents policy. Although they interpret the law in very open interpretation, we defend the thesis that this interpretation can not have the breadth defend

Abstract:

Nous avons établi une indication chiffrée des coûts réels issus des désinflations basées sur l'ancrage nominal du taux de change. Notre analyse s'est appuyée sur deux régions ayant recouru le plus souvent au taux de change comme instrument de lutte contre l'inflation élevée chronique ou l'hyperinflation : l'Amérique latine et l'Europe centrale et orientale. En général, la stratégie d'ancrage nominal par le change est efficace pour réduire le taux d'inflation. Cette efficacité est plus marquante en Europe centrale et orientale qu'en Amérique latine, où le bilan de désinflation reste mitigé. Qua

Abstract:

Les modes de fonctionnement des établissements bancaires ont profondément évolué ces dernières années, sous l'effet de la libéralisation financière et des innovations technologiques. Le développement de nouveaux instruments financiers et la globalisation du marché des capitaux ont généré de nouveaux risques et contraint les autorités prudentielles à faire évoluer les exigences réglementaires pour garantir la résilience du système financier. Avec l'entrée en vigueur, en décembre 2006, de la réforme "Bâle II", les banques ont dû adapter leurs outils de sélection et de mesure du risque de crédit

Abstract:

Using three different models, we examine the determinants of average stock returns on the Stockholm Stock Exchange during 2012-2016. By using time-series data, we find that a Fama-French three-factor model (directed at capturing size and book-to-market ratio) functions quite well in the Swedish stock market and is able to explain the variation in returns better than the traditional CAPM. Additionally, we investigated if the addition of a Price/Earning variable to the Fama-French model would increase the explanatory power of the expected returns of the different dependent variables portfolios.

This paper is a phonetic investigation of radio newsreading on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) from 1937 to 1987. Recorded newscasts from the first, third, and fifth decades of CBC history are examined. Brief histories of CBC Radio news and of the Office of Broadcast Language are included, and the bibliography brings together much scattered reference material on CBC language. Traditional auditory evaluations of selected aspects of voice quality settings, vowel quality, and voice dynamics are supplemented by instrumental measurements.

When people first started to use digital technology to generate music, they were thrilled with their new ability to create novel and different sounds; accordingly, much research effort has been directed towards rich and complex methods of sound synthesis. Unfortunately the deep physical connection that exists between a musician and an instrument has not received as much attention, and so although we have machines capable of synthesizing fantastic new sounds, we don’t have the ability to use these sounds with any immediate finesse, of developing virtuosity with our new instruments.
