Text in English / Violent crime and more specifically armed robberies constitute a growing threat to shopping centres in terms of their vulnerability to such criminal acts. These violent crimes are becoming ever more organised and sophisticated. Shopping centres across South Africa have become the latest targets for these syndicates. Due to the increasing number of armed robberies and violent crimes at shopping centres and the nature of violence used in these attacks, it points to a need for improvements to be made to the security measures that are in place at shopping centres. This study explored the risks and vulnerabilities at shopping centres that have led to the phenomenon of armed robberies at shopping centres in Gauteng; evaluated the current physical protection systems that are in place at shopping centres in Gauteng in order to assist with the reduction of shopping centre armed robberies; and recommendations were made for the implementation of effective security risk control measures at shopping centre’s across South Africa and specifically the province of Gauteng. Self-administered questionnaire surveys were used to explore the phenomenon from the perspectives of both retail employees and customers. The data collected from the questionnaires, utilising the non-experimental research design, were quantitatively analysed. Based on the findings from the study recommendations for the improvement of shopping centre security were formulated along with recommendations for future research. / Security Risk Management / M.Tech.

Master of Landscape Architecture / Department of Landscape Architecture/Regional and Community Planning / Stephanie A. Rolley / College districts are unique places that often times blend the culture, history, and the future direction of a city. They are places that foster knowledge, interaction, and diversity. A successful college district enables all citizens to help shape a place that is unique amongst other districts throughout the city. They are places where people relax, work, socialize, think, revolt, and reunite. They are, perhaps, the most important districts within college towns. The intent of this project is to completely reinvent a district to be one that all citizens (permanent and student) of Ames, Iowa can utilize throughout the year. Reversing the negative perceptions of Campustown through design and programming will help recreate a district that fosters interaction among students of Iowa State University and the citizens of Ames. Further, the recreation of Campustown will benefit the community in terms of image, economics, environment, and place. Campustown will no longer be perceived as an enclave of substandard student housing, trashy bars, and a district that caters to only one group. It will be a place where people come together to celebrate Ames and ISU and to come together to meet friends and family. To enable a thorough understanding of successful college districts, two case studies were examined in great detail to help understand what makes these places work. A complete site inventory and analysis of Campustown was also conducted to help determine where and what shortcomings are present throughout the site. Several different programming elements have been selected that would be appropriate to locate in the Campustown area. And finally, a complete master plan has been created that will enable Campustown to function properly long into the future for every citizen of Ames.

It will address the history of this type of enterprise, as well as the characteristics and aspects that make up its complex structure and differentiate it from other types of enterprises, such as galleries and magazines. Given the peculiarities of the shopping mall contracts, there is a controversy over the legal nature of such contracts. The different doctrinal positions that qualify these contracts as typical, in the frame of the lease, atypical or linked agreements, will be a part of these study, as well as the interpretation which, it is believed, best meets the objectives of the contractors. Likewise, the more specific terms of such contracts will be examined separately, investigating the reason for its existence and the interpretation given by Brazilian Courts of Justice. The study will address the existence of different types of goodwill within the mall, and the consequence of this fact in concluding res sperata contracts, before and after the opening of the shopping mall. The work also has the scope to demonstrate the relevance of the tenant mix to the success of shopping malls and, therefore, seek to explore the importance of the role of the entrepreneur in the project planning and maintenance and constant updating of the tenant mix, in order to attract many customers to a shopping mall, always aiming to increase sales. This work will be finalized with the study of instruments, namely the eviction and denial of renewal of contracts, to be used by the entrepreneur to preserve or improve the tenant mix / Esta dissertação busca analisar os contratos celebrados entre empreendedores e lojistas no âmbito dos shopping centers. Será abordado o histórico desse tipo de empreendimento, bem como as características e aspectos que compõem sua complexa estrutura e o diferenciam de outros tipos de empreendimentos, como galerias e magazines. Dadas as peculiaridades existentes nos contratos de shopping center, existe uma grande controvérsia acerca da natureza jurídica de tais contratos. Serão estudados os diferentes posicionamentos doutrinários que qualificam esses contratos como típicos, na moldura do contrato de locação, atípicos ou coligados, abordando ainda a interpretação que, acredita-se, atenda melhor aos objetivos dos contratantes. Também serão analisadas, separadamente, as cláusulas mais particulares de tais contratos, investigando a razão de sua existência e a interpretação dada pelos tribunais pátrios. Será abordada a existência de diferentes fundos de comércio dentro do shopping center, e a consequência de tal fato na celebração de contratos de res sperata antes e depois da inauguração do empreendimento. O trabalho também tem por escopo demonstrar a relevância do tenant mix para o sucesso dos shopping centers e, para tanto, buscará explorar a importância da atuação do empreendedor no planejamento do empreendimento e na manutenção e constante atualização do tenant mix, de forma a atrair um grande número de frequentadores e potenciais clientes ao shopping, visando sempre o aumento de vendas. Este estudo será finalizado com o levantamento de instrumentos, consistentes na ação de despejo e negativa de renovação dos contratos, a serem utilizados pelo empreendedor para a preservação ou aprimoramento do tenant mix

The aim of this thesis is to establish a “förvaltningsplans” template to Fastighetskontoret in Vasteras city. Further general information about the mission was given at our first meeting with Rolf Haraldsson, who happened to be our mentor and works at Fastighetskontoret in Vasteras city. We agreed that using the software Excel was the most appropriate way to establish the template, because Fastighetskontoret also make use of Excel in their internal system, and also because Excel has a more friendly user interface and it is more easier to use compared to other software that have complex templates. One of the first things we did was to get in contact with different fastighetskontors around Sweden so that we could either take part of their “förvaltningsplaner” or get referred to other material that could have been used. But this turned out to be an unsuccessful strategy. However, by searching on internet, course literature and databases we got a successful result. The most common headlines were included in the template and were later discussed with our mentor from Malardalen University, Sone Nydert. Mr. Nydert who gave us viewpoints and directions on how we should develop our work further. Thereafter, we had continual meetings with the mentor in Fastighetskontoret in Vasteras stad, Rolf Haraldsson, so that we could discuss and adjust the templates in line with the headlines in order for the template to match the fastighetskontorets internal headlines. The template was finally tested in frosundaskolan and turned out to be a successful work.

When entering the market, the perfect location seems for most of them to be found in Iguatemi Group’s Shopping Malls. This research focuses the topic of Luxury Market and Retail, in the form of a case study on Iguatemi Group, which tries to understand How is Iguatemi Group creating opportunities for International Luxury Brands in Brazil? To understand the context of the case, the text explores the Brazilian market evolution, its attraction factors and challenges, the location choice methodology used by international luxury brands, and finally, how is the Iguatemi Group creating opportunities for these brands in Brazil. For doing so, a multiple-methods approach was followed so to achieve a non-biased result. In-depth interviews were conducted with Iguatemi’s managers, international luxury brands’ managers and experts in luxury market and retail; non-participant observation was held, and documentation was examined. The research found that the entry of International Luxury Brands in Brazil started about 20 years ago, mainly explained by the positive structural economic reforms Brazil experienced in this period. 60% of the studied brands chose São Paulo’s Iguatemi malls as first location, in particular Iguatemi São Paulo and JK Iguatemi. The preference over these locations relies mainly on the reputation of the Iguatemi brand and on its positioning in the market which seems to be aligned to that of these brands. From its side, Iguatemi has started actively gathering international luxury brands into the market since 15 years ago, and has intensified its action by creating iRetail, an internal company to the group representing some international luxury brands in Brazil, which have, thus, exclusive locations in its malls. The role of Iguatemi, hence, goes beyond that of a real estate company, by approaching the market with a 360° strategy. These findings contribute for academic purposes, in the extent to which they propose a so far rather unexplored topic, and for managerial purposes by describing a best practice in the shopping center sector. However, the study does not mean to be generalized. Consumers’ perspectives on Iguatemi Group were not addressed; rather, the research took a business to business approach. / O mercado de bens de luxo no Brasil tem registrado um crescimento substancial, marcado pela entrada de várias marcas internacionais no país. A maioria destas marcas parece ter encontrado a melhor localização nos centros comerciais do Grupo Iguatemi. Esta pesquisa tem como tópico o Mercado de Luxo e o Varejo, na forma de um estudo de caso sobre o Grupo Iguatemi, e tenta entender Como o Grupo Iguatemi está criando oportunidades para marcas de luxo internacionais no Brasil? Para compreender o contexto do caso, o texto explora a evolução do mercado de luxo brasileiro, os seus fatores de atração e desafios, a metodologia utilizada na escolha de localização feita pelas marcas internacionais e, finalmente, como está o Grupo Iguatemi criando oportunidades para elas no Brasil. Para isto, múltiplos métodos foram utilizados, na tentativa de conseguir um resultado não enviesado. Entrevistas semiestruturadas foram conduzidas com gestores do grupo Iguatemi, assim como com gestores de marcas de luxo internacionais e peritos do mercado de luxo e varejo; observação não participante foi dirigida e documentação foi examinada. A pesquisa concluiu que a chegada de marcas internacionais ao mercado brasileiro começou há 20 anos atrás, principalmente explicada por positivas reformas econômicas pelas quais o Brasil passou nesse período. 60% das marcas estudadas localizaram a sua primeira loja nos centros comerciais do grupo Iguatemi em São Paulo, nomeadamente no Iguatemi São Paulo e no JK Iguatemi. A preferência por estas localizações está, sobretudo, ligada à reputação da marca Iguatemi e ao seu posicionamento no mercado, o qual parece estar alinhado ao posicionamento destas marcas. O grupo Iguatemi começou há 15 anos um trabalho de atração destas marcas para o mercado brasileiro, trabalho este que foi intensificado com a criação da iRetail, uma empresa interna ao grupo que representa algumas das marcas de luxo internacionais presentes no mercado, com localizações exclusivas nos centros comerciais Iguatemi. O papel do Iguatemi vai, então, além do papel de uma empresa imobiliária, abordando o mercado de luxo com uma estratégia de 360º. Estes resultados contribuem para fins acadêmicos, uma vez que exploram um tópico ainda inexplorado, e para fins de gestão, uma vez que descrevem uma best practice no setor de centros comerciais.

As questões do ambiente e da natureza como um todo, tais como, preservação, conservação de ecossistemas, florestas, rios, descartes de dejetos líquidos, gasosos e sólidos, a colocação de elementos poluentes no solo, ar e água, são temas de extrema e extensa divulgação e discussão na mídia, na academia e na sociedade como um todo. A preocupação da sociedade, sensibilizada e temerosa por esta questão, uma vez que ela própria tornar-se vítima do processo de degradação do ambiente, é cada vez mais latente. Pessoas e empresas, aos poucos, tornam-se mais conscientes de suas necessidades e exigências de participação no processo de degradação e preservação do meio em que vivemos o que faz com que todos observem com profunda atenção, suas atitudes. As empresas, pressionadas pela mídia e pela sociedade e por uma legislação cada vez mais restritiva, veem-se obrigadas a agir cada vez mais de forma precavida, coerente e preocupada em relação ao ambiente. Assim, elas adotam estratégias empresarias frente às questões ambientais sem que, por outro lado, desconsiderem a sua lucratividade e seus ganhos, essenciais numa lógica empresarial, inserida no contexto do modelo econômico capitalista. Essa pesquisa, visa entender, quais passos e normativas legais as empresas de Shopping Center estabelecidas na cidade de Porto Alegre, no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, mais precisamente o caso do Bourbon Shopping Wallig, necessitou seguir, para a implementação de seu empreendimento. Quais as medidas de mitigação e compensação aos impactos ambientais foram tomadas e baseadas em que normativas ou estudos. A pesquisa visa confirmar, também, se estas medidas tomadas, derivadas de sua implantação no local, desde sua construção - que alterou completamente a paisagem do local - até seus próprios elementos e suas técnicas de construção, seguiram as normas e exigências legais dos instrumentos utilizados para regrar esta obra. Além disso, se avalia quais foram efetivamente seus resultados na prática, analisando no empreendimento após sua conclusão, qual sua eficácia, seus resultados concretos e quais as manifestações que se obtém do mercado, na mídia e da sociedade em geral, frente a esta preocupação e às atitudes consideradas pró-ambientais. / The issues of the environment and nature as a whole, such as preservation, ecosystems conservation, forests , rivers, liquids, gases and solid waste discharges and the placement of polluting elements in the land, air and water are issues of extreme and extensive dissemination and discussion through out the media, at the academy and society as a whole. Because of the population concern about this issue, they are becoming sensitized and fearful about it. They eventually will become victimized by the environmental degradation that has had a latent increase as time goes by. People and companies gradually have become more aware of their participation in the process of environment degradation in which they are living. This is making everyone aware of their attitude towards the environment. Companies have been increasingly pressured by the media and society and more restrictive laws are finding themselves obligated to act very cautious, concerned and consistent about the environment. They are applying business strategies in order to comply with environmental issues without disregarding their profitability and earnings which are essential in the logistic of the capitalist business model. This research aims to understand which steps and legal ways the mall companies and stores established in the town of Porto Alegre , Rio Grande do Sul State, more precisely at the Bourbon Shopping Wallig were needed and followed by this enterprise implementation project. It also aims to understand the mitigation and compensation towards the environmental impact that they have caused, all based upon professional studies. Due to the complete landscape changed during the mall construction, this research also wants to prove if the construction techniques had followed all legal regulations and rules that are required by law. Furthermore , one should consider if the practical results of this enterprise had been achieved after completion. We should also evaluate the efficacy, the real results, media, market manifestations, opinions and in a grand spectrum if the environmental worries had been respected and fulfilled.
