Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to report research testing scales developed from a combination of vested interest (VI) theory and the extended parallel process model of fear appeals. The scales were created to measure variables specified by an expanded model of VI: certainty, salience, immediacy, self-efficacy, response-efficacy, and susceptibility.

AbstractThe European Union has remained stable despite all its past and current challenges. This essay explores the reasons for that. We argue that the secret behind its stability lies in its system of negotiation. Against this backdrop, we analyse two recent challenges of the European Union. First, we show how domestically bound European governments were able to bring about a stable internationally negotiated solution for what became known as euro crisis. By means of game theory we boil down why the European Union remained stable even after havoc struck. Second, we analyze the dynamics behind

This paper presents a model with “fuzzy ownership rights” for explaining corporate governance. The purpose of this model is to capture the theoretical underpinnings of corporate governance in real-world situations, which emphasize social, economic and cultural networks. The existence of strong fuzzy ownership rights affects corporate governance in many important ways, beginning with the firm being forced to go beyond solving the shareholder interest maximization problem: instead, the firm attempts to solve a more complex problem, which is to maximize the interests of other fuzzy ownership righ

After almost 25 years of jurisprudence under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, many of the fears expressed by critics of the Charter have come to pass—judicial review under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms operates as an institutional device to curb more than advance democratic politics and to entrench more than challenge a conservative ideology. The Charter is indeed a potent political weapon, but one that has been and continues to be used to benefit vested interests in society and to debilitate further an already imperfect democratic process of government.

Reverse curve catheters facilitate catheterization of vessels angled oppositely from the point of access. Most commonly, they are used to access caudally angulated vessels from a femoral approach. An array of these catheters exists, and their utilization greatly expands the options for intervention from any single access. Once formed, the catheters are gently advanced forward until their tip engages the vessel of interest, typically confirmed with an injection of contrast under live fluoroscopy.

Although at times they have acted in concert with other alternative investors, their intergenerational savings function should, in theory at least, promote more long-termist thinking.

This shift, however, caused tensions between winners and losers, leading local bureaucrats to compete for resources in government budget, funding, and tax breaks.

This chapter discusses the history of economics and the events that shaped that history. It first considers the nature and content of economics, taking into account questions related to the theory of value and the theory of distribution, the institutions involved in economic activity, and the larger political and social framework in which economic life proceeds. It views economics as a reflection of the world in which specific economic ideas have developed, such as those associated with Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, and John Maynard Keynes. It argues that economic ideas are not very important when and where there is no economy. Change in economics has been reluctant and reluctantly accepted, especially by those who benefit from the status quo and economists who have a vested interest in what has always been taught and believed.

Abstract:
Chapter 13 examines the determinants of river-related policies and considers ways of making further progress toward the Ecological and Open approaches to rivers. It shows that there are broadly two types of obstacles impeding adoption of the Ecological and Open approaches. These are, first, paucity of required knowledge, and, second, vested interests favoring the Commercial and Cordon approaches. External influence from developed countries, until now, has mostly favored the Commercial and Cordon approaches in developing countries. Informing and engaging the public is the main way in which both the obstacles of paucity of knowledge and vested interests can be overcome. Moving the discussion of river policies to the public arena is therefore important.

Abstract:
This chapter delves into the coalitional politics of policy making and resource allocation by investigating strategies of city government officials. The chapter examines the patterns of bureaucratic competition between international commerce departments and newly emerged domestic technology departments and their respective business clients, including foreign and domestic firms. I explain the influence of FDI attraction on domestic politics by showing (1) how the overlap between FIEs and exporters shaped the degree of perceived threat and the cohesiveness of the vested interests in international commerce under the rule of fragmented bureaucratic competition and (2) how the existence of large foreign firms strengthened the bargaining power of the vested interest bureaucrats against allocating resources to the domestic technology coalition. The direction and the magnitude of foreign influence, therefore, is filtered and channeled through local bureaucracy.

Abstract:
Two studies investigated Singaporean junior college students’ determinations of the credibility of social studies Web sites. In the first study, participants selected Web sites that they determined to provide objective and accurate representations of their topics, provided reasons for their selection, and described Web site authors’ vested interests. They also selected Web sites that illustrated misrepresentations, explained why, and described authors’ vested interests. Finally, they rated their own competence and confidence about different aspects of Web site information accuracy. Qualitative analyses of participants’ written comments revealed a strong awareness of political vested interests of Web site authors, a topic that had not emerged in previous research. In the second study, analyses of students’ responses to questionnaires about a more credible and a less credible Web site provided by their instructor indicated that students rated the more credible Web site higher. Students’ ratings of their general confidence in evaluating Web sites on accuracy/truthfulness as well as their confidence in detecting misrepresentations in Web sites were used as criteria in a reduced multiple regression model. Results showed that students generally differed in their perception of the two Web sites. Implications for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at how leaders also think about another border as they formulate a strategy for governing. This is the temporal divide between present and future, the invisible line that separates the present generation from the generations that follow. Institutions can be designed to give more weight to the interests of future generations. Indeed, leaders have built institutions with a vested interest in tending to future threats. In the United States, the Department of Defense regularly reviews threats to national security that will likely face the next generation. However, leaders are often driven toward shortsightedness, because they must also respond to more immediate challenges. Any state, democratic or authoritarian, must deal with the reality of competition within the system of states. To maintain security and influence, leaders must keep their national economies growing, even if it causes long-term environmental damage.

Abstract:
In 1958 the trustees of a settlement, established in 1947 by Sir William Bass for the benefit of Captain Hastings-Bass and his issue, exercised the statutory power of advancement to transfer £50 000 from that settlement to the trustees of another trust fund created in 1957 for the benefit of Captain Hastings-Bass’s son, William, and William’s issue. What the trustees could not then foresee was that the later decision of the House of Lords in Re Pilkington’s Will Trusts would render some of the 1957 trusts perpetuitous and void. The Commissioners of Inland Revenue argued that this oversight rendered the purported exercise of the power of advancement void, and that in consequence they were entitled to claim estate duty on the £50 000 when Captain Hastings-Bass died in 1964. In 1974 the Court of Appeal rejected this argument, holding that the 1957 trusts created a life interest vested in William Hastings-Bass, and that this life interest survived even though the remoter interests were void for perpetuity.

Abstract:
This chapter highlights opportunities and challenges associated with integrated management of wetlands at the catchment and landscape scale. It discusses the fragmented nature of many catchments, and the low priority given to wetlands, in spite of their important ecological functions and valuable ecosystem services. By highlighting the need for holistic approaches to managing catchment systems, we draw attention to the need to mobilise political will from the wide variety of institutions usually present in larger catchments. Lack of legal clarity over wetland identity and the negative impacts of vested interests often associated with economic development are other big barriers to more effective efforts to secure wetland integrity within the catchment or landscape context. Given the importance of wetlands to hydrological regimes, and increasing water stress from local to global scales, we conclude that greater implementation of market-based instruments is essential to counteract commercial self-interest, if sustainable management of wetlands is to be achieved.

Abstract:
Different from other intellectual property rights, rights vested in a trade mark do not have a finite duration; they can last ‘forever’. Under systemic aspects this is due to the fact that as long as the message conveyed by the sign is correct it would be contrary to the interest of consumers to let it lapse and fall back into the public domain. Also, from a competition point of view there is no need to terminate protection as long as the right holder keeps using the sign and the designated goods and services themselves are not subject to market exclusivity.

Internet has become a basic requirement of many a people. Although technology has affected all functional area of business, marketing is feeling the heat even more. The leap in the information technology replaced mass marketing with one-to-one marketing. Customer relationship, knowledge management, database marketing became the buzz words during 1990s. Search services, biometrics and smart cards, enhanced computational speed, M-commerce, and GPS tracking have changed the way marketing is done. However, technology is often misused by marketers to lure customers on wrong premises. Marketers may at times misuse technology for their vested interest. The article discusses the various cases where technology has been misused by the marketers. The article explores the technological innovations in marketing and the potential misuse of technology with special focus on cases from India.

To date, the beltline region of the pressure vessel, defined as the portion of the pressure vessel experiencing fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) equal to or greater than 1017 n/cm2, has been the primary focus of evaluations assessing this embrittlement. These evaluations typically include a calculation of the neutron flux incident on the reactor pressure vessel beltline region, which is in part validated by direct comparison with dosimetry measurements.

Abstract:
The penetrations in the early Pressurized Water Reactors Vessels are characterized by Alloy 600 tubes, welded by Alloy 182/82. The Alloy 600 tubes have been shown to be susceptible to PWSCC (Primary Water Stress Corrosion Cracking) which may lead to crack forming. The cracking mechanism is driven mainly by the welding residual stress and, in a second place, by the operational stress in the weld region. It is therefore of big interest to quantify the weld residual stress field correctly. In this paper the weld residual stress field is calculated by finite elements, using a common approach well

Abstract Personal cooling vests to alleviate thermal strain in persons with thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI), named paraplegia, were tested. Mainly, phase change material (PCM) cooling vests were the most frequent type applied at different exercises and ambient conditions. Published results of PCM cooling vests indicated its significant effect in reducing body core temperature for persons having more than 50% of their trunk skin as sensate. Nevertheless, preferences of persons with SCI obtained from subjective voting during experimental studies revealed that the use of PCM cooling vests cause

Abstract:
Reactor pressure vessels are the most important components of nuclear power plants from safety and economic point of view. Thus, special interest is given to their lifetime management that requires a precious and periodical evaluation of their conditions. In Czech Republic, special program has been prepared for reactor pressure vessels in both nuclear power stations — Dukovany NPP with 4 units of WWER-440 MW and Temelin with 2 units of WWER-1000 MW reactors. This program is based on the following activities: • detailed calculations of real and potential regimes, especially of pressurized therm

Abstract:
To perform the integrity assessment of a reactor pressure vessel (RPV) related to Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS), we model the RPV using the 3D finite element method (FEM). Accurate prediction of temperature and stress fields is determined by using 2-Phase computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation in combination with an appropriate finite element discretization of the RPV wall. The cladding and the ferritic low alloy steel are considered as two separated layers, which can be intersected by superficial cracks. The calculation of the stress intensity factor (SIF) in mode I is based on the l
