Full textAbstract:
<p>Any organization, to fulfill its mandate from the society, needs to have the legitimacy to use collective resources. Conferred almost automatically at the birth of the organization, it has to be maintained and even repaired when necessary. Legitimacy appears then as a conversation between the organization and the general public. Noticeably, this continuous conversation is sustained through the media and also through documents issued by the firm, particularly the annual report. The firms use discursive strategies to entertain their legitimacy.</p><p>Using semiotic analysis in the frame of a multiple cases study (6 firms over 5 years), this paper isolates the different stories in the annual reports, including the images that are integrated parts of these narrations. We apply the semiotic instrument to these stories to deconstruct the content and expose the actor filling actantial roles. We found a substantial amount of stories (187 in 30 reports) containing the categories developed by Greimas & Bremond from the work of Propp, implying an intensive use of the report in the conversation maintaining legitimacy.</p>

Full textAbstract:
This research presents a theory of educational change grounded in 23 years of qualitative data that document the history of a public elementary school. The pattern of change observed supports the punctuated equilibrium theory of organizational change in which short periods of revolutionary change—usually the result of failed innovation—are followed by long periods of equilibrium or incremental change. Attempts to legitimate organizational and individual behavior—the dynamics of construction, erosion, loss, reconstruction, and maintenance of organizational legitimacy—explain the sequence of stages in the change process. The study concludes that punctuated legitimacy, which created the need to reestablish legitimacy, not rational administrative attempts to improve the programs and structure of the school, was the major factor that produced significant organizational change.

Full textAbstract:
This qualitative case study of one German suburban high school classroom in the Midwestern United States examines how learners of German negotiate their linguistic legitimacy, which is defined as discursively constructed acceptance or validation for their language use. Specifically, it investigates how the students negotiated legitimacy for using their target language German in their classroom. Based on the premise that linguistic legitimacy is crucial for the maintenance and development of speakers’ languages, data was collected and analyzed from classroom recordings, semi-structured interviews, and participant observations. Findings revealed that, while English dominated the lessons as the default legitimate language among the students, using German was accepted and valued under certain circumstances. Such instances of linguistic legitimacy included the use of German for entertainment or in role plays, a pattern which points to the students’ desire to mitigate investment and display “uninvestment” in learning or using German. Implications for foreign language (FL) pedagogy and teacher education are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Environmental governance implies creation of novel interdependencies among actors and actions, and this innovation and diversity presents challenges. One of these challenges is the maintenance of legitimacy. To understand processes of legitimation at the level of individual organizations and at the level of the larger assemblages represented by governance arrangements, we develop a conceptual framework that analyzes accountability relationships. Within this framework, we use artifacts of accountability, material representations of accountability relationships, to understand the creation, maintenance, and erosion of legitimacy. We study the creation and administration of a multifunctional forested landscape in New Hampshire, USA. Empirical assessment of the varied institutional logics that structure and contribute to legitimacy in this material and organizational landscape allows us to advance understanding of persistence, change, and failure of environmental governance arrangements.

For entrepreneurs, establishing and maintaining new venture legitimacy is a complex endeavor. Various factors complicate this process, including issues of optimal distinctiveness, audience diversity, market category evolution, and multiple legitimacy thresholds. Moreover, the establishment and maintenance of new venture legitimacy is an intricate process that unfolds over time. In this essay, I review and integrate prior work on new venture legitimacy not only to highlight these complications, but also to consolidate insights, theoretical nuances, and empirical observations to describe what happens when entrepreneurs confront multiple complications at the same time. In so doing, I propose that configurational approaches provide a valuable theoretical perspective to enhance knowledge related to new venture legitimacy. I also highlight exemplar studies that have adopted these perspectives, accounting for multiple new venture legitimacy complications in a single analysis. This provides a basis to understand recent advances in the new venture legitimacy literature, and inspires and opens up new research opportunities for further exploration.

Legitimacy of a child is the most sensitive issue to be discussed although there are many issues in relation to the presumption of legitimacy of a child, they remained the same for a long period of time mainly because of the excuse of religion. This research is related to the Legitimacy of a Child in Pakistan reference to Islamic Laws and Medical Science. In Pakistan, the legitimacy of a child is dealt with according to Article 128 of the Qanoon-e-Shahadat Order, 1984 and Muslim Personal Laws. In this, I discussed the inconsistency of some laws with medical science. I have also proposed some more ways to determine the legitimacy of a child rather than using laws available in Pakistan as a sole entity. It is important to determine the paternity of a child as it leads to succession, maintenance, guardianship, inheritance and much more. This research also highlights the importance of re-formulation of present laws related to the legitimacy of a Child in Pakistan.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTConcerns over food safety in China not only direct public attention to negative incidents, but also trigger the government's scrutiny of implicated firms, particularly MNCs. The question of how to repair legitimacy after media coverage of negative incidents has become a critical issue for MNCs. Although the factors for MNCs’ public crises have been identified, how local contexts and mechanisms shape repair approaches remain unclear. To address this research gap, we conducted a study of Walmart China's approaches associated with two negative incidents across two regions. We found that the negative incidents can be framed differently depending on the local environment's unfavorability for MNCs. Specifically, the negative framing gave rise to varying degrees of legitimacy loss and offered different leeway for MNCs to repair their legitimacy. We also identified the varied outcomes of different repair approaches. By revealing the linkages among local context, framing, legitimacy repair, and its outcomes, our study contributes to research on MNCs’ legitimacy management under institutional complexity and underscores the China context for legitimacy maintenance. We also offer insights that advance the institutional approach to legitimacy repair in this context. Last, we reflect on the techniques for conducting qualitative research in China.

Full textAbstract:
Judicial politics scholars routinely posit that the behavior of Supreme Court justices is motivated in important part by concerns of institutional maintenance, that is, by a desire to maintain the Court’s unusually large store of institutional legitimacy. Previous work on this topic, however, has focused almost exclusively on the influence of such motivation on judicial decision making. We contend that if institutional maintenance is an important goal, it should be observable in other contexts as well. We examine televised mass-media interviews with Supreme Court justices from 1998 to 2016 and find that legitimacy reinforcement is the predominant goal reflected in justices’ rhetoric in those interviews.

Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université de Montpellier (2022-....), 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UMOND010.
Full textAbstract:
En Europe, l'intensification des mouvements de défense du climat accentue la pression exercée sur les entreprises polluantes, accusées de contribuer au réchauffement climatique. Ces organisations se retrouvent confrontées à des pressions sociales, qui vont jusqu'à remettre en cause leur droit social d'opérer. Pour s'en défendre, ces entreprises mettent en place des stratégies de maintien de leur légitimité. La littérature a d'ailleurs déjà exploré ces stratégies, entre justifications, démonstration du rôle dans la société, politiques RSE ou travail avec des parties prenantes elles-mêmes légitimes. Or, les acteurs légitimes peuvent aussi être à l'origine des critiques négatives. Cette opposition est souvent exacerbée par des motifs idéologiques, comme avec les ONG, ou en raison de la concurrence sur le marché. La riche littérature déjà existante sur les relations ONG-firme ou sur la coopétition montre d'ailleurs combien il peut être parfois difficile de mener à bien pareils partenariats. Mais peu de recherches se sont interrogées sur ces collaborations contre-intuitives dans le cadre d'une stratégie de maintien de la légitimité. Notre question de recherche est alors la suivante : comment une organisation contestée peut-elle collaborer avec une organisation adversaire dans le cadre d'une stratégie de maintien de sa légitimité ?Pour comprendre ce « tango avec le diable », nous réalisons une étude de cas unique au sein de la compagnie aérienne Air France, fragilisée par les mouvements de honte de prendre l'avion (flight shaming). À partir d'observation-participante, de 38 entretiens et de riches matériaux secondaires (archives d'entreprise, presse), nous étudions trois projets contribuant à la stratégie de maintien de la légitimité de la compagnie. Le premier est l'échec de la définition de la raison d'être d'Air France. C'est l'analyse de ce projet avorté, réalisé seul, qui nous a interrogée sur la pertinence de collaborer avec des acteurs légitimes, mais adversaires. Le second projet, la campagne de communication RSE de la compagnie, a fait l'objet d'un travail avec une ONG. Le troisième projet étudié, enfin, est le partenariat avec la SNCF, concurrent d'Air France sur le réseau domestique. Nous soutenons, par cette étude de cas, que les adversaires peuvent être des alliés précieux dans la stratégie de maintien de la légitimité d'une organisation contestée. Nous contribuons à la littérature sur le maintien de la légitimité en montrant (1) que les stratégies d'autolégitimation ne sont pas efficaces dans une stratégie de maintien pour une organisation contestée. Travailler avec des parties prenantes légitimes est donc indispensable, et il est possible, pour cela de (2) collaborer avec des adversaires sans faire appel à des techniques de transfert de légitimité. Il est néanmoins (3) de la responsabilité de l'organisation contestée de transformer la relation d'adversité en relation partenariale, afin que cette stratégie de maintien soit efficace. Dans une moindre mesure, cette thèse contribue également à la littérature sur la coopétition, montrant combien (1) l'asymétrie de légitimité peut être un levier d'évolution des relations coopétitives. Cependant, (2) un rééquilibrage est nécessaire de la part de l'acteur contesté pour faire de la coopétition une stratégie possible de maintien de la légitimité (3) fondée sur la refonte d'un narratif vers plus de collaborationIn Europe, the escalation of climate protection movements has heightened the pressure on polluting companies that contribute to global warming. These organizations face increasing social pressures that challenge their societal license to operate. In response, they have adopted strategies to preserve their legitimacy. Existing literature explores various strategies, from justifying their societal roles to implementing corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies and collaborating with recognized stakeholders.However, these legitimate stakeholders can also become sources of criticism, often fueled by ideological motives—as seen with non-governmental organizations (NGOs)—or by market competition. Extensive research on NGO-firm relations and coopetition underscores the complexities of cultivating successful partnerships. Nevertheless, scant research has been done on these paradoxical collaborations as a strategy for maintaining legitimacy. Our research question is: How can a contested organization collaborate with an adversarial one to maintain its legitimacy?To investigate this "tango with the devil," we conduct a detailed case study of Air France, significantly affected by flight shaming. Utilizing participant observation, 38 interviews, and various secondary sources (company archives, press releases), we examine three initiatives contributing to the company's strategy to maintain legitimacy. The first initiative, an unsuccessful attempt to define Air France's core purpose, raises questions about the feasibility of collaborating with legitimate yet adversarial entities. The second is the company's CSR communications campaign, conducted in partnership with an NGO. The third investigates collaboration with SNCF, Air France's competitor in the domestic network. This case study demonstrates that adversaries can serve as valuable allies in maintaining a contested organization's legitimacy.This study contributes to the literature on maintaining legitimacy by illustrating that (1) self- legitimization strategies are ineffective for a contested organization's sustainability, making collaboration with legitimate stakeholders essential. It is feasible to (2) collaborate with adversaries without relying on legitimacy transfer techniques. However, (3) it is incumbent upon the contested organization to transform adversarial relationships into partnerships for these strategies to succeed.Moreover, this thesis also enhances our understanding of coopetition by showing how (1) legitimacy asymmetry can facilitate the evolution of coopetitive relationships. However, (2) rebalancing by the contested actor is necessary to render coopetition an effective strategy for maintaining legitimacy, and (3) this requires reshaping the narrative toward greater collaboration

How do people respond to a state that is violent towards its own citizens? In State, Violence, and Legitimacy in India, this question is addressed through insights offered by ethnographic explorations of everyday policing in Delhi and the anti-insurgency measures of the Indian army in Lakhipathar village in Assam. Battling the dominant understanding of the inverse connect between state legitimacy and use of violence, Santana Khanikar argues that use of violence does not necessarily detract from the legitimacy of the modern territorial nation-state. Based on extensive research of two sites, the book develops a narrative of how two facets of state violence, one commonly understood to be for routine maintenance of law and order and the other to be of extraordinary need for maintaining unity and integrity of the nation-state, often produce comparable responses. The book delves into the debates surrounding state–citizen relationship in India, while critically engaging with dominant notions of state legitimacy and its relation with use of violence by the state.

This chapter collects evidence of temples as venues of the prophetic performance, prophets among the temple personnel and as advocates (sometimes even critics) of temple worship at Mari and in Assyria, in Greek sanctuaries, and in Jerusalem. The chapter discusses prophets and temples (institutions of religious worship)—the function and significance of temples and cult places varied according to their size, location, wealth, and status; their legitimacy and symbolic significance provided an identity for the community they served and the maintenance of their symbolic universe. The most important sanctuaries featuring in the sources are the temple of Dagan at Terqa (Mari) and that of Ištar in Arbela (Assyria); the temples of Apollo at Delphi, Didyma, and Claros, and that of Zeus at Dodona; and the temple of Jerusalem.

Full textAbstract:
This book delves into the paradox of China's self-projection of a strong security state while having a weak police bureaucracy. Assessing the problems of resources, enforcement, and oversight that beset the police, outside of cracking down on political protests, the book finds that the central government and the Ministry of Public Security have prioritized “stability maintenance” (weiwen) to the detriment of nearly every aspect of policing. The result, the book argues, is a hollowed-out and ineffective police force that struggles to deal with everyday crime. Using interviews with police officers up and down the hierarchy, as well as station data, news reports, and social media postings, the book probes the challenges faced by ground-level officers and their superiors at the Ministry of Public Security as they attempt to do their jobs in the face of funding limitations, reform challenges, and structural issues. The book concludes that despite the social control exerted by China's powerful bureaucracies, security failures at the street-level have undermined Chinese citizens' trust in the legitimacy of the police and the capabilities of the state.

Full textAbstract:
This volume offers a fresh interpretative agenda for thinking about the Vienna-based Habsburg Monarchy’s development, coherence, functionality, and domestic legitimacy under the impact of enduring international rivalry and armed conflict across a period spanning nearly two centuries, from the Thirty Years War to the Napoleonic wars. It does so in a wider European comparative perspective and by engaging closely with the concept of the ‘fiscal-military state’, rendering it both greater depth and precision and elaborating heuristic potential. This volume firmly returns the maintenance of a permanent standing army to the centre of the Habsburg government’s concerns between 1648 and 1815. In an exemplary way, it spotlights a broad range of structures, practices, and actors on both the financial and military sides that sustained the Habsburg fiscal-military state over time. These include the General War Commissariat, foreign subsidies and other external support, the provincial Estates and diets, taxation and borrowing, recruitment and the enrolment of officers, supply and provisioning as well as individual noble families, brokers, and contractors. In also applying the idea of ‘composite monarchy’ to the Habsburg polity, the volume additionally calls attention to both symmetries and asymmetries in the processes of state formation that occurred under the impact of fiscal-military exigency. Consolidation was accompanied by the emergence of new forms of particularism.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates determinants of socio-environmental practices, (mandatory and voluntary), as evidenced in southern Brazil’s electric energy distribution companies. It seeks to understand this phenomenon with interdisciplinary protection through theoretical constructs of Social Responsibility, Environmental Management, Evidence, Legitimacy, Reputation, and Institutional. This integration contributes to understanding the reasons why companies undertake and evidence their socio- -environmental practices to external audiences. The literature suggests that socio-environmental practices are explained by various reasons, such as: enforced by legal impositions and/or voluntariness, to strengthen legitimacy, maintain and develop a reputation, and by isomorphism of the competitive operating environment. Given the above, the objective of this work is to investigate factors that determine the disclosure of socio-environmental practices in electricity distribution companies in the south of Brazil. In the methodological aspects, a qualitative approach was used, with descriptive and exploratory objectives. As a research strategy, a multichannel study was applied through two electricity distribution companies in the south of the country, CELESC Distribuição S.A. (Centrais Elétricas de Santa Catarina) and COPEL Distribuição S.A. (Companhia Paranaense de Energia). Data collection took place in two stages, the first one with a search on documentary, physical and virtual basis, and the second stage using a semi-structured interview with professionals from the Social and Environmental Responsibility area of each of the companies surveyed. The information collected was related to the period of 2014, 2015, and 2016. The results showed that the Annual Reports, service stations, and participation in external events constitute the primary means and channels of evidence of socio-environmental practices. There was a greater tendency to develop social practices. However, there are programs focused on climate change, conscious consumption and electricity saving, social inclusion, recovery of citizenship, and people’s quality of life. The COPEL company presented a tendency to evidence voluntary practices with more intensity, also showing consistency and maintenance of the programs during the studied period. Regarding corporate and sustainability policies, it was noted that companies adopt very similar strategies. It is concluded that the age, size, and corporate reputation of companies are the main determinants of socio-environmental practices, highlighting the presence of mimetic isomorphism characterized by the use of the same types of means and channels of evidence and by the symmetry of practices and policies developed by companies CELESC and COPEL.

Full textAbstract:
Swedish local government has a strong position within the unitary nation state. At first sight, this could be understood as a paradox if decentralization and central control are treated as contradictory concepts. However, in countries such as Sweden, with a relatively generous welfare system that emphasizes equal access, strong local and regional governments can be seen as means of avoiding the pitfalls of rigorous standardization by allowing adjustment of national welfare services to local circumstances. This requires legitimate, responsible, and capable local and regional politicians. Subnational government also has additional tasks as providers of locally generated collective services, such as road maintenance, parks, recreation, and cultural facilities. The contributions in this section are all based on the most recent research in the field. They discuss Swedish subnational government with regard to its internal workings, horizontal relationships, reform trajectories, and position in relation to other systems of local and regional government.

AbstractTurning our attention to the construction and maintenance of immutable mobiles, scholars can perform more detailed analyses of how different technological networks mediate secular time. This serves to establish secularity as a legitimate research topic in its own right, without making it conceptually parasitical on the concept of ‘religion’. Socio-technological networks whose function is premised on moving certain entities without deterioration mediate secular time. When these networks expand in size and complexity, so that increasing numbers of people participate in their associated practices more frequently, we call this process secularization.

Full textAbstract:
A trustworthy government is one that keeps its promises (or has exceptionally good reasons why it fails to), is relatively fair in its decision-making and enforcement processes, and delivers goods and services. A legitimate government is one that appeals to widely accepted justifications for its selection, maintenance, and policies. Investigations across history and countries reveal that the more trustworthy the government, the more likely it is to evoke observation of its laws and acquiescence to policies. Less clear is the link between perceptions that government is trustworthy and beliefs that it is legitimate, at least in countries claiming or trying to be democratic. Being trustworthy in practices and outcomes may contribute to perceptions of government legitimacy. However, trustworthiness is, at best, a necessary but not sufficient condition for legitimating beliefs. This chapter explores the relationship between the trustworthiness of government and its legitimacy by considering cases from both advanced democracies and state-building efforts. It argues that current democracies may need to refashion their moral economies—the extra-market reciprocal rights and obligations that link populations, governments, corporations, and all the other various organizations that make up the society—if they are to reestablish strong grounds for legitimacy.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses extraction and legitimacy. Extraction is about the state's ability to acquire the resources it needs to carry out its designed tasks. Whereas extraction tends to focus on material resources, legitimacy is an attitudinal resource for the state. The more legitimacy a state possess, presumably, the easier it is to call on its population for support. If the state must allocate all or most of its resources to simply staying in power by brute force, there is also less left to allocate to other problems. Ample attitudinal support therefore reduces the costs of state maintenance. Not surprisingly, India's extraction capacity is not well developed. More unusual is India's high scores on legitimacy, which so far are not deteriorating greatly. While India no doubt benefits from fairly consistent democratic institutions, Indian scores on this criterion put it among far more affluent states.

This chapter sums up the main contention of the book in relation to order and broad participation in the maintenance of its polyrhythmia, arguing that legitimacy is not an explanation for why things stay together, though it may be a reason why things fall apart in concerted disorder. The legacy of the Strangeways riot and the danger of history repeating itself are considered.

Abstract The introduction of this book challenges the conventional wisdom of the judicial independence and rights-based approaches to understanding the Chinese court system. Instead, the book proposes a governance model that views the courts as agents of the state, with two primary functions—policy implementation and legitimacy enhancement. Through an exploration of the different policies that the courts are responsible for enforcing, and the approaches they use to enhance their legitimacy and that of the state, the book sheds new light on the evolution of the Chinese court system. This governance model is distinct from the dualism and order-maintenance theses which have been used to understand the Chinese legal system in the past.

Full textAbstract:
We, as the authors of this text, have found it important to point out the close connection between law and justice, theory and practice, because citizens go to court for justice. The judge says what justice is. However, when the legal norm is available and well known to the persons, to whom it refers, and when it is predictable and the case law is uniform, the persons to whom the legal norm refers, can know their rights and obligations concretely, and thus know how to treat them. In order to that they must behave and anticipate the consequences of their behavior. When all the above has been fulfilled, it can be said that the requirements of the rule of law and legal security have been met, so it can be freely said that law and justice are at the "service of the people", through theory and practice. It should be reminded that the precision of the legal norm is one of the basic elements of the rule of law and is a key factor for the emergence and maintenance of the legitimacy of the legal order, which applies to all branches of law, and that court decisions are binding on all.

Full textAbstract:
Damage detection and localization allow for automated real-time monitoring of engineered systems. The benefits of such a system include improved safety, lower maintenance costs, and higher reliability. Many of the early works focus almost exclusively on numerical simulations of real systems, with very little experimentally acquired data used in detection. Introducing real world data complicates the analysis significantly by requiring noise reducing techniques to acquire legitimate results. Further, the cost of obtaining enough data to fully define a damaged system can quickly become prohibitive. This paper focuses on damage detection schemes carried out through empirical means. First a concept proving scheme is used by which data about the system is collected through accelerometer data. The damage detection scheme requires the reduction of a large set of data to one or two descriptive eigen parameters. Second, the scheme is repeated using optically gathered data through use of a high speed camera and software image manipulation tools. Damage detection is shown to be possible under the same conditions and initial parameters. Localization of the damage, however, is shown to require sensor information from multiple locations. Further still the optically based method is shown to supplement a failed detection by other means.

Full textAbstract:
Administrative litigation endows citizens, legal persons, or other organizations with the right to appeal to the court for protection when their legitimate rights and interests are illegally infringed by public power. The administrative litigation prosecution system is the preface to the operation of the judicial rights relief. China’s administrative litigation prosecution system has experienced a transformation from a case-filing review system to a case-filing registration system. Meanwhile, “difficulty in prosecution” has been alleviated. However, the number of administrative litigation prosecution cases has increased sharply. Therefore, the setting and review of the prosecution threshold should be clarified by judicial relief. With the time limit for prosecution in administrative litigation as a vital procedural threshold in prosecution conditions, we should ensure the dynamic balance between the protection of litigation rights and judicial efficiency. It’s also necessary to study its functional orientation and special system of time limit for prosecution, such as the time limit for prosecution of invalid litigation. The administrative litigation prosecution system is constantly improved in theory and practice. The reform and development of the registration system should take the legislative purpose value of the prosecution system as the starting point. At the same time, attention should be paid to the protection of personal interests and the maintenance of administrative order.

Full textAbstract:
Derivative action is a means of guaranteeing the execution of obligations placed by the legislator at the disposal of the creditor who has a certain and enforceable claim, through which he can exercise the rights and actions of his debtor in the event that the latter neglects or refuses to do so. It may happen that a debtor does not exercise his rights towards his own debtor or otherwise omits to defend his rights and legitimate interests, due to absence, negligence, disinterest, due to a feared or imminent insolvency, or even because he intends to harm his creditors by not performing his obligations. In contractual relations, the creditor and the debtor could stipulate a right of the creditor to obtain information from the debtor regarding the evolution of the exercise of its rights vis-à-vis third parties if the debtor begins to commit non-performance of the contract towards the creditor. Therefore, when the debtor neglects to exercise an action that belongs to him, the creditor can exercise that power of attorney with or without filing an action in court, indirectly, obliquely, on behalf of his debtor. It is certain that the object of the derivativr action is limited to patrimonial rights and actions (given the fact that it is a measure by which the common guarantee of creditors is desired) and which are not closely related to the person of the debtor. Thus, the creditor will not be able to exercise, for example, the action to abolish or reduce the maintenance pension, the divorce action, the action to annul the marriage, etc. These proposals were interspersed with the objective of the given paper – better understanding of the subject by paying special attention to the comparison procedure, as we consider this method of effective research.

Full textAbstract:
The French ‘yellow vests’ movement is anything but an episodic protest movement. It questions both the liberal and the republican conception of political representation. The reason for this radicalism is that it shakes the foundations of a neo-capitalist order, for which shortterm financial sales have become more important than the long-term maintenance of the system itself. From the financial crisis of 2008, neoliberalism only seems to have learned that,despite everything, the model on which it is based holds up. This creates a profound crisis of legitimacy that reveals a break in political culture that no policy of consensus or even recognition can remedy. This essay examines the theoretical approaches that can take this phenomenon into account.
