Abstract:
In this thesis, I will defend a new kind of compatibilist account of free action, indirect conscious control compatibilism (or indirect compatibilism for short), and argue that some of our actions are free according to it. My argument has three components, and involves the development of a brand new tool for experimental philosophy, and the use of cognitive neuroscience. The first component of the argument shows that compatibilism (of some kind) is a conceptual truth. Contrary to the current orthodoxy in the free will literature, which is that our concept of free will is an incompatibilist con

In this thesis, I use two strategies of inquiry to further our understanding of indirect short-selling constraints. First, I interview a series of experienced market practitioners to identify their attitudes towards indirect constraints. I find little support for D’Avolio’s (2002) suggestions that short-selling is inhibited by managers’ fear of tracking error and by the cultural pressures of a society that can vilify short-sellers. However, I am able to introduce a new, social, indirect constraint to the literature – the perception that short-selling is a form of ‘trading’ as distinct from ‘in

Global climate change is considered to be one of the most serious concerns of humankind (United Nations, 1992; United Nations, 2002).

This is one of the main reasons why the understanding of the Earth’s climate system is of major importance.

Many classical control methods are based upon assumptions of linearity and stationarity of the process to be controlled. For the case of motion control of a land vehicle in an unstructured outdoor environment these assumptions do not hold, due to complex vehicle interactions with its surroundings and time--varying environmental conditions. The large number of possible future platforms leads to the desire to produce motion controllers which are generally applicable to a wide range of vehicles with little a priori knowledge of vehicle dynamics.

The protection of aliens offers an international minimum standard of treatment. The main interference risked by foreign investors is the expropriation of their property. This may occur in two forms: as an outright taking or as measures having an equivalent effect. Changes in international economics and politics have placed the latter in the centre of legal debate. Indirect takings refer to those measures that are not openly expropriatory, but result in the deprivation of the property of an alien.

Designing a system of multiple, heterogeneous agents that cooperate to achieve a common goal is a difficult task, but it is also a common real-world problem.

This perspective leads to many inefficiencies in learning such as the problem of reinvention, whereby fundamental skills and policies that all agents should possess must be rediscovered independently for each te

However, there was no obvious systematic error: sometimes the indirect temperature change was larger and sometimes smaller. The discrepancies were beyond the experimental errors. T
