Why Ethical Consumers Don't Walk Their Talk: Towards a Framework for Understanding the Gap Between the Ethical Purchase Intentions and Actual Buying Behaviour of Ethically Minded Consumers
Despite their ethical intentions, ethically minded consumers rarely purchase ethical products (Auger and Devinney: 2007, Journal of Business Ethics 76, 361-383). This intentions-behaviour gap is important to researchers and industry, yet poorly understood (Belk et al.: 2005, Consumption, Markets and Culture 8(3), 275-289). In order to push the understanding of ethical consumption forward, we draw on what is known about the intention— behaviour gap from the social psychology and consumer behaviour literatures and apply these insights to ethical consumerism. We bring together three separate insights — implementation intentions (Gollwitzer: 1999, American Psychologist 54(7), 493-503), actual behavioural control (ABC) (Ajzen and Madden: 1986, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology 22, 453-474; Sheeran et al.: 2003, Journal of Social Psychology, 42, 393-410) and situational context (SC) (Belk: 1975, Journal of Consumer Research 2, 157— 164) — to construct an integrated, holistic conceptual model of the intention— behaviour gap of ethically minded consumers. This holistic conceptual model addresses significant limitations within the ethical consumerism literature, and moves the understanding of ethical consumer behaviour forward. Further, the operationalisation of this model offers insight and strategic direction for marketing managers attempting to bridge the intention-behaviour gap of the ethically minded consumer.
Quitclaim deed conveyed flowage easement, not fee simple
The conveyance was then described as being \"all for lake purposes in connection with the dam being constructed in said White River\" for Ozark Power, with the Hoenshels \"retaining the right to occupy the Property down to the actual water line of the lake, for themselves and their assigns.\" The habendum clause did not contain the \"all for lake purposes\" language found in the premises, but it did restate that the conveyance was subject to the right reserved by the Hoenshels to occupy the land down to the actual water line. For these reasons, the appellate court concluded that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment to Empire on the basis of its conclusion that the 1912 Deed conveyed to Ozark Power fee title to the Property.
Disordered enthalpy–entropy descriptor for high-entropy ceramics discovery
The need for improved functionalities in extreme environments is fuelling interest in high-entropy ceramics 1 – 3 . Except for the computational discovery of high-entropy carbides, performed with the entropy-forming-ability descriptor 4 , most innovation has been slowly driven by experimental means 1 – 3 . Hence, advancement in the field needs more theoretical contributions. Here we introduce disordered enthalpy–entropy descriptor (DEED), a descriptor that captures the balance between entropy gains and enthalpy costs, allowing the correct classification of functional synthesizability of multicomponent ceramics, regardless of chemistry and structure. To make our calculations possible, we have developed a convolutional algorithm that drastically reduces computational resources. Moreover, DEED guides the experimental discovery of new single-phase high-entropy carbonitrides and borides. This work, integrated into the AFLOW computational ecosystem, provides an array of potential new candidates, ripe for experimental discoveries. DEED captures the balance between entropy gains and costs, allowing the correct classification of functional synthesizability of multicomponent ceramics, regardless of chemistry and structure, and provides an array of potential new candidates, ripe for experimental discoveries.
Express and implied easements over beachfront property
The trial court held a trial and issued a decision concluding that the clear and unambiguous language of the 1929 easement deed granted Davis an express easement upon the beach, and that subsequent conveyances included the easement because express easements pass by deed of the dominant tenement absent a different intention clearly appearing in the deed. The court disagreed, observing that the 1986 deed unambiguously incorporated the 1929 express easement upon the beach by conveying the property \"together with and subject to all easements, rights of way, and restrictions of record.\" Because it is well established that in any conveyance of real estate, all rights, privileges, and appurtenances belonging to the granted estate shall be included in the conveyance unless a different intention is clearly stated in the deed. According to Stephens, without a unity of ownership, there can be no implied easement.
What is land? Assembling a resource for global investment
The so-called global land rush has drawn new attention to land, its uses and value. But land is a strange object. Although it is often treated as a thing and sometimes as a commodity, it is not like a mat: you cannot roll it up and take it away. To turn it to productive use requires regimes of exclusion that distinguish legitimate from illegitimate uses and users, and the inscribing of boundaries through devices such as fences, title deeds, laws, zones, regulations, landmarks and story-lines. Its very 'resourceness' is not an intrinsic or natural quality. It is an assemblage of materialities, relations, technologies and discourses that have to be pulled together and made to align. To render it investible, more work is needed. This Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers Plenary Lecture uses an analytic of assemblage to examine the practices that make up land as a resource. It focuses especially on the 'statistical picturing' devices and other graphic forms that make large-scale investments in land thinkable, and the practices through which relevant actors (experts, investors, villagers, governments) are enrolled. It also considers some of the risks that follow when these large-scale investments land in particular places, as land they must.
Article: Foundations in Poland and the Possibility of Running a Business by Them Pre-publication
Currently, there are two legal regimes regarding foundations in Poland. The first one results from the Act of 6 April 1984 on foundations, (Consolidated text JoL 2020 item 216.) and the second – which is new – from the Act of 26 January 2023 on family foundations, (JoL 2023, item 326). Foundations are generally established to achieve socially or economically useful goals, while the family foundation is an instrument of succession. By definition, they are not established to conduct business activities, but if the conditions specified by law are met, they may conduct such activities – under certain rules. In particular, foundations may acquire shares in capital companies. The aim of this article is to discuss the possibility of running a business in Poland by foundations and family foundations.
Adverse possession established for paper street but not acquiescence to property boundary
[...]the court concluded that the Carter deed conveyed Reserved Way to the Carters, but that the Voncannons and Rogerses had acquired title to it by adverse possession. The state supreme judicial court began by analyzing the terminus of Reserved Way, which the Carters argued ran through land up to the high-water mark. The court found that the deed language was ambiguous, because it was unclear whether Reserved Way ends at the eastern boundary of Holiday Beach Road or extends over the road to terminate at the eastern boundary of the shore. Because the deed was ambiguous, the court needed to construe the grant. [...]the trial courts judgments partially in favor of each party were affirmed.
