A New Experiment on Rational BehaviorMacDonald, Myles R 01 January 2011 (has links)
Behavioral economics is widely recognized as a rising field in economics, one whose discoveries and implications are not yet completed or understood. At the same time, economic theory plays an enormous role in our governmental and legal system. In particular, the Coase Theorem and its implications have affected nearly every area in the field of law and economics. This paper proposes a experimental test of Coasean bargaining in situations using two competitive players whose payoffs depend on minimizing their costs of mitigating the externality. A rational player’s action can be predicted ahead of time, and the rationality of the game’s outcome can be objectively measured. If behavioral effects found in consumer goods situations by other experimenters carry over to competitive business situations, then a substantial review of law regarding such situations is in order.

Irish Hills Natural Reserve Conservation Plan UpdateRiley, Bijan N 01 June 2011 (has links)
The Irish Hills Natural Reserve Conservation Plan is a unique component of the Cityof San Luis Obispo’s green belt that provides a number of hiking and mountain bikingtrails within a short distance from the downtown core as well as ensures that valuablehabitat be preserved into the future. As the subject of my thesis project, IHNR presented the opportunity to pursue an aspect of city planning that can often be over-looked and, conservation planning. Conservation planning is an important element of the planning profession in that it incorporates such elements into the future growth of cities. With proper planning it is possible to foresee future development patterns and thus be able to designate and protect high value natural resource areas as open space, in order to preserve and protect their resources. In addition to setting the guidelines for preserving and protecting the natural resources and important habitats of Irish Hills, the conservation plan has a secondary effect of ensuring the future health of the surrounding habitats.

Dreading He Knew Not What: Masculinities, Structural Spaces, Law and the Gothic in The Castle of Otranto, Pride and Prejudice, and Wuthering HeightsMorse, Samantha E 01 January 2013 (has links)
This essay investigates the integral linkages between Gothic spaces and Gothic masculinities in three texts: Horace Walpole’s The Castle of Otranto (1764), Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice (1813), and Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights (1847). At the core of this examination is architecture, or more specifically, the physical constructions and built environments that comprise a man’s property. I explore how a man uses his property to construct, legitimize, and perform his identity. In the Female Gothic, the home is a place of anxiety for women, where patriarchal dominance and violence reign to constrain female agency. I argue that the home is also an anxiety-ridden space for men, who are similarly tyrannized by a force they have limited power to fight against: legality. The issue of legally legitimized property ownership as a means of defining masculine selfhood in these texts lead men to extreme, and arguably unnatural, resorts to cling to their coveted status as autonomous property holders and virile men. In short, I aim to define a specifically Gothic masculinity. Yet, by using Pride and Prejudice, I will argue that this Gothic masculinity is not limited to Gothic texts.

Israel's Absentee Property Law: When is Democratic Failure Necessary?Smith, Bria 01 January 2018 (has links)
This paper defends Israel's expropriation of property under the Absentee Property Law within the state’s pre-1967 borders on constitutional grounds, but holds that the Law’s increased use in the region of East Jerusalem is invalid under Israel's constitutional scheme. This distinction turns upon the state’s application of the Law for necessary purposes. I hold that Israel’s justification for breaching human rights explicitly protected must be based on the state’s need to preserve its foundational ideology and national purpose in times of extra-normal circumstances. Israel may act undemocratically only to the extent imperative to preserve the Jewish nation and the existence of the Jewish state for generations to come.

The given Master's degree thesis deals with the comparative analysis of legislation on real estate disposition in the Czech Republic and Ukraine in the context of international private law. Primarily, it focuses on the legal status of Czech investors in real estate situated in Ukraine and also the legal status of Ukrainian investors investing in real estate situated in the Czech Republic. The author of this Master's degree thesis has chosen this topic since he is interested in international private law, as well as in Ukrainian land law, especially in the sphere of private- law relations concerning real estate with an international element. The aim of this Master's degree thesis is to alert potential investors from Ukraine and the Czech Republic on specifics and potential legal pitfalls when investing in real estate situated in the Czech Republic or in Ukraine, to analyze conflict-of-law rules which regulate private-law relations with an international element concerning real estate disposition in the territory of both above-mentioned states and, finally, to recommend definite strategical and tactical steps towards the implementation of investment projects. Thus, the main purpose of this Master's degree thesis is to create a handbook for investors who intend to invest in real estate in the Czech...

Addressing the Administration of Planned Developments: The Case of Arroyo Grande, CaliforniaDowning, Matthew J. 01 June 2013 (has links) (PDF)
The City of Arroyo Grande, California has a problem administering the
regulations of five Planned Developments in the City. This problem arises
from these regulations being included in a 167-page appendix at the back of
the City’s Development Code. This appendix includes the original approvals
for the Developments. It also includes amendments to those approvals.
These amendments are only added to the appendix. Therefore, changes to
the regulations governing the Planned Developments are not tracked. It
takes City staff considerable amounts of time to research answers when
members of the public have questions regarding development in one of these
Developments. Because of the numerous pages that must be read through to
track the changes to one of the districts, there is no guarantee that the
information presented to the inquirer is accurate. This can lead to issues
when the rules are not consistently applied. The purpose of this project is to
investigate an appropriate method to address this problem.

Villkor för tvångsvis fastighetsreglering : En inventering av rättsfall med fokus på båtnadsvillkoret och förbättringsvillkoret / Terms for property reallotment : An inventory of court cases focusing on the betterment terms and improvement termsHimo, Kristian January 2020 (has links)
Property reallotment is a measure that is done in accordance with the FBL. Property reallotment may involve a change in the division of property. Esements can beformed, changed and canceled through property realloments and joint property units can be formed and changed. For example, a change in the division of property unitsmay apply to partition, subdivision and amalgamation of properties and entails a forming of the property in question. The measure can be implemented by agreement between the property owners and also with coercion. Such a measure entails a large encroachment of individualproperty rights and is therefore protected by a number of terms. Reallotment may only be enforced if it meets the terms that protect public and private interests. Theseare regulated in Chapters 3 and 5. FBL. This thesis focuses on the protection of the individual interests, which are mainly regulated in Chapter 5, 4–8, §§ FBL. In thecase of voluntary agreements, these terms may be agreed upon. The purpose of this thesis is to present and clarify how the improvement and advantage terms for property reallotment are applied in the courts. The thesis alsoexplains what legitimates coercive rules. A case review of about 20 cases has been made to find a pattern in how the courts interpret the requirements in theparagraphs. In order to find relevant cases that deal with the terms, all cases in the LMRR between 2009 and 2020 were reviewed. In addition to the cases, legislativehistory and doctrine have also been studied. The conclusion describes examples of occasions when the terms are usually considered to be fulfilled and the factors that are used in the assessments. What isclearly evident is that what is usually regarded as an improvement or advantage of a property regulation is of an economic nature.

Heirs' property disputes on forestlands, partition actions, and the determinants of court verdictsTiwari, Mahesh Prasad 08 December 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Heirs' property is generated through the intergenerational transfer of a property to several co-owners when the original owner dies without a will. Such co-owners hold undivided fractional interest in the entire land but lack a clear title. Co-owners face several legal, financial, and technical constraints to manage the forestlands and often seek partition of the land. However, the legal environment and empirical assessment of partition actions on forestlands owned as heirs' property has not been examined. This thesis evaluates statutory laws relevant to forestland partition and the factors instrumental in adjudicating partition lawsuits. The findings reveal that partition lawsuits are primarily adjudicated using common law rather than statutory law. The magnitude of co-owners' fractional interest, the income withheld from forestlands, and the presence of absentee co-owners favor partition claimants. The study results have implications for heirs' property owners, legal entities and personnel, and policymakers.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SELF-DETERMINATION AND CLIENT OUTCOMES AMONG THE HOMELESSHanna, Samuel M. 01 June 2015 (has links)
This paper has attempted to determine if there is a significant relationship between self-determination and client outcomes among the homeless. The study has been based upon the conceptual framework set forth in Self-Determination Theory. The purpose of the study was to explore the relationship between self-determination and client outcomes among the homeless. Using a data collection instrument, based on empirically validated instrumentation, clients from several homeless service providers in the City of San Bernardino were assessed for the level of self-determination and autonomy support they experience within these agencies. Outcome measures included such things as whether the client was going to school, had a job and had a bank account. Overall, the results of the study were inconclusive, though some interesting post hoc observations were made. It was the primary aim of this paper to increase the knowledge base of the local network of homeless service providers and to promote the compassionate, equitable, and dignified treatment of the population they serve.
