Full text
Abstract:
International marketing studies have extensively examined the antecedents of firms' marketing standardization/ adaptation decisions. However, it is unclear whether such decisions, once planned, codetermine the choice between buying and building foreign subsidiaries. Analyzing a sample of 150 foreign entries by Dutch firms, the authors find that the level of marketing adaptation planned for a wholly owned subsidiary is positively related to the likelihood that the subsidiary will be established through an acquisition rather than through a greenfield investment. Moreover, the authors find substantial evidence that this positive relationship is stronger for firms that (1) are establishing relatively larger subsidiaries, (2) have less experience with the industry entered, or (3) are entering less developed countries. The findings show that firms pursuing higher levels of marketing adaptation assign more value to the marketing adaptation advantages of acquisitions over greenfields, especially if the risks associated with implementing the planned adaptation level are high. In addition, firms typically strive for a fit between their international marketing strategy and their mode of foreign establishment. (authors' abstract)

Full text
Abstract:
This study extends previous research by exploring perceptions of healthiness in the international food marketplace. To this end, it aims to fill an important gap by shedding light on the role of country of origin in shaping perceptions of healthiness. The authors provide evidence that domestic and foreign food products elicit different perceptions of healthiness. Consumers choose domestic products because they perceive them as healthier and more natural. The effect holds across different samples and product categories (apples, tomatoes, bread, and yogurt). However, this healthiness bias vanishes when products are presented as posing health risks and when products are introduced with a dual identity (i.e., both foreign and domestic). Researching these health-related effects helps provide a better understanding of consumer attitudes toward domestic- versus foreign-made food products.

Datry, Pierre. "Jim Jarmusch, cinéaste du presque rien." Paris 1, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA010615.

Full text
Abstract:
À partir de la notion de presque rien empruntée au philosophe Vladimir Jankélévitch sera analysée l'œuvre de Jim Jarmusch au travers de sept films principaux qui sont : "Permanent Vacation", "Stranger than Paradise", "Down by Law", "Dead Man", "Ghost Dog", "Broken Flowers", "The Limits of Control". Le presque rien sera défini suivant les axes thématiques et esthétiques présents dans la filmographie du réalisateur. Thématiquement sera étudiée de quelle façon Jim Jarmusch prend le contre-pied de l'idéologie américaine communément admise du rêve américain. Il en résultera une poétique de la marginalité, des marginaux, de l'errance, du questionnement existentiel, de l'exil ainsi qu'une critique de la société américaine jusque dans ses principes fondateurs. Esthétiquement il sera mis en évidence que Jim Jarmusch s'inscrit à l'opposé du cinéma commercial hollywoodien défini depuis le début des années 80 par la logique du blockbuster. Les caractéristiques formelles des films de Jim Jarmusch seront ainsi analysées et mises en relation avec les références nombreuses auxquelles il se rapporte. De ces études comparées se dégagera le principe moteur à l'œuvre chez le cinéaste qui n'est plus celui de l'action mais relève d'un phénomène de perception-contemplative.

Aquest treball de tesi doctoral analitza la cinematografia del realitzador nord-americà Jim Jarmusch des de la perspectiva de les teories postmodernes. A través de diferents paràmetres que examinen la presència d'elements tant estètics com ideològics propis de la postmodernitat en la seva filmografia, aquest treball planteja la postmodernitat més com un marc de producció i recepció que com un corrent cultural lliurement assumit. La relació del creador amb les obres alienes i la dels seus personatges davant d'un entorn desproveït de discurs integrador són els eixos de l'estudi que ofereixo de les pel·lícules de Jim Jarmusch.

This doctoral thesis analyzes the oeuvre of US film director Jim Jarmusch from the perspective of postmodern theories. By applying a series of parameters that explore the presence of typical postmodern aesthetic and ideological elements in his films, postmodernity is not viewed as a cultural current one is free to engage in, but rather as an environment one is unwillingly immersed in. The main foci of my analysis are the relationship between Jim Jarmusch's work and the work of other film directors and the lack of connection between his characters as well as a dissociative, fragmented environment which fails to integrate the various elements of Jarmusch's movies.

Flores-Robert, Vanessa. "Black Policemen in Jim Crow New Orleans." ScholarWorks@UNO, 2011. http://scholarworks.uno.edu/td/1392.

Full text
Abstract:
Although historians have done in-­‐depth researched on Black police in the South, before the Civil War and during Reconstruction, they seldom assess black policemen’s role in New Orleans between the Battle of Liberty Place and 1913. The men discussed here argue that despite the hardening racial attitudes in Post-­‐ Reconstruction South, in New Orleans opportunity still existed for Blacks to serve in positions of authority, perhaps a heritage of the city’s earlier tri-­‐partite racial order. The information obtained from primary sources such as police manuals, beat books, and newspapers, counters the widely held belief that African American presence in the police during this period was completely defined by Jim Crow. This work presents updated and corrected evidence that Blacks were enrolled in the New Orleans Police Department during the time of Jim Crow, challenging the notion that after 1909 Blacks in New Orleans were not part of the police department.

Simpson, Tracey. "L'intertextualité de l'oeuvre poétique de Jim Morrison." Pau, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PAUU1002.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette etude, consacree a "l'intertextualite de l'oeuvre poetique de jim morrison," explore les sources (notamment nietzsche, rimbaud, artaud et kerouac) et les parentes litteraires ou thematiques de l'oeuvre (avec blake, huxley, yeats, lawrence, hesse). Son eclectisme reflete la nature heterogene de l'heritage poetique de morrison. En effet, ce dernier se situe a un veritable carrefour, cherchant dans le passe et le present un remede a sa vision pessimiste du futur d'une amerique gangrenee. La premiere partie de la these se penche sur la maniere dont l'artiste envisage la perception poetique, reprenant a sa maniere la problematique platonicienne de la vision humaine, voie d'acces et obstacle a la connaissance. La deuxieme partie developpe la mystique morrisonienne, dans le sillage de la tradition illuministe (reprise par blake, yeats et lawrence). Le raffinement de sa perception permet au poete de spiritualiser sa quete de la verite. Sa mort symbolique lui permet de decouvrir son etre spirituel, occulte par la societe, qui prone une exteriorisation excessive de la vision. Redecouvrant ainsi la dualite fondamentale de l'etre, le poete renait symboliquement a une sagesse ancienne, jusqu'alors latente. La troisieme partie s'interroge enfin sur la nature et le role de la creation artistique : morrison pousse a bout les theories syncretistes et, par la transmutation du langage, il s'efforce de creer un art total, universel, mobilisant toutes les ressources de l'homme. Il rejoint tres nettement les traditions alchimiques et chretiennes en assimilant d'abord l'artiste a l'adepte, recepteur et emetteur du message hermetique, puis a l'apotre, "pecheur d'ames" et martyr
This study concentrates on the notion of "intertextuality in the poetic works of jim morrison. " it explores the sources (notably nietzsche, rimbaud, artaud and kerouac) and the literary and thematic relationships of the work (with those of blake, huxley, yeats, lawrence, hesse). Its eclecticism reflects the heterogeneous nature of morrison's poetic legacy. Morrison is situated at a crossroads, seeking, in the literature of the past and the present, a solution to his pessimistic vision of a corrupted america. The first part of the thesis concentrates on the nature of poetic perception, re-assessing the platonic philosophy of human vision which simultaneously represents the key and obstacle to knowledge. The second part develops morrison's mysticism, in the wake of the illuminist tradition (reinterpreted by blake, yeats and lawrence). The purification of his perception allows the poet to spiritualize his quest for the truth. His symbolic death enables him to discover his spiritual being, denied by a society which advocates an excessive exteriorisation of man's vision. By thus rediscovering the fundamental duality of man's being, the poet is symbolically reborn into an ancient wisdom, until then latent within him. The third part questions the nature and the role of artistic creation : morrison pushes syncretist theories to the extreme and by a transmutation of language, he endeavours to create a universal art summoning up all of man's resources. In this way he adheres to the alchemical and christian traditions by assimilating the artist firstly with the adept, receiver and transmitter of the hermetic message, and secondly with the apostle, "fisher of souls' and martyr

Abstract:
This report, prepared for The Jim Henson Company, shares findings of a sub-study investigating the types of support parents and caregivers need when navigating and using the second-screen Splash and Bubbles for Parents app. This study originated from a prior field study finding indicating families would benefit from support around the app since it represents a new kind of digital tool. In partnership with local Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) stations, we provided parents and caregivers more detailed support around the features of the app. Based on survey and interview findings, parents and caregivers found the app helpful for supporting their children’s science learning, thus validating the field study findings. We also found that all sections of the app were used and could help promote conversations between parent/caregiver and child. Moreover, families expressed choosing to use a specific app section when they felt it was more relevant or developmentally appropriate for their child.

Abstract:
This report prepared for The Jim Henson Company shares findings of a field study examining the promise of the Splash and Bubbles for Parents app, a second-screen digital resource designed for parents and caregivers to support young children’s learning of ocean science. The study conducted in 2020 involved a two-group, quasi-experimental design in which family participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention condition (who watched the show and used the app) or the comparison condition (who watched the show but did not have access to the app). Findings from this study provided information about how the app supported families to talk about science together; what science concepts and practices children learned through engaging with the app and related science activities; and how families shifted their attitudes, beliefs, or practices around science and media. Another finding highlighted parents and caregivers’ need for support around ways to engage with and use the app given that this represents a new type of digital tool.
