Testo completoAfter a brief Introduction, Chapter I will examine whether concentration within the U.S. airline industry is a natural phenomenon or an ordinary monopoly/oligopoly resulting from the behaviour of competitors. In concluding that a natural monopoly/oligopoly does not exist, Chapter II will analyse the policy being antitrust enforcement in the industry.
Chapter III will then use the implementation of S 408 of the Federal Aviation Act (FAA) by the Department of Transportation (DOT) as an example of such a policy. Finally, the remaining chapters are dedicated to an analysis of the CRS industry. By using this industry as an example, the writer will suggest that, by removing barriers to entry through aggressive use of S 411 of the FAA, the future may see new entrants enter the market. Emphasis will be placed on the attitude of the DOT in this regard.

Testo completoFloodplain roads and railroads are common features in river landscapes, but their distribution and impacts have not been explicitly studied. This dissertation discusses the impacts of floodplain roads and railroads on channel and floodplain processes in river landscapes at the continental, regional, and local scales. At the continental scale, I documented the spatial patterns of roads and railroads in the floodplains of the continental United States and the regional variability of their potential impacts. Based on these results, I developed a conceptual model based on topography and the interaction of transportation and stream networks that suggests that the area of lateral disconnection caused by transportation infrastructure should be most extensive in mid-sized alluvial valleys in relatively rugged settings, such as those located in the western United States. I used pre-existing digital geologic, hydrologic, and transportation data with Geographic Information Systems software to map floodplain areas and lateral disconnection along the floodplains of two river systems in Washington State. I developed methods to quickly and inexpensively delineate potential or historic floodplain surfaces, to analyze lateral floodplain disconnection caused by different types of structure, and to rank floodplain reaches in terms of salmon habitat potential. Although all floodplains exhibited disconnection, the floodplain maps and habitat rankings helped identify opportunities for habitat preservation and restoration. At the local scale, I mapped and measured the impacts of lateral disconnection, showing that channel and riparian habitat was degraded in locations with floodplain transportation infrastructure confining the channel compared with similar nearby sites lacking such confinement. Railroad grades and road beds function as confining structures in the riparian zone, disrupting flood pulses and the exchange of water, sediment, and biota between channels and their floodplains and within the floodplain. Over longer time periods, these structures can also impede the natural meandering and migration of channels across their floodplains, disrupting the erosional and depositional processes that drive the high habitat and biological diversity characteristic of floodplains. My results show that human-caused disconnections need to be further incorporated into river science and management. This dissertation includes previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

Testo completoHaving as an objective to explore other ways to approach the workers history, this dissertation has as scope analyze a collection of 724 photographs on the routine of the Chicago and North Western Railway and understand the contents of a photographic discourse about railroad work and labor. These photographs were produced by photographer Jack Delano under direction of Roy Emerson Stryker, the head of the Office of War Informations Division of Photography. More precisely, the pictures are part of what is mostly known as the Farm Security Administrations Historical Section, group of photographers acknowledged for picturing the situation of the rural America after the effect of the Great Depression. For that matter, as means to establish an analytic procedure, it was necessary to reflect on the photographs constitutive elements, as: the history of railroad workers, the history of the division of photography and the question of understand photography as a historical record. As a result, the photographs were characterized as vestiges in which the trajectories of the photographer and the division, pressed by the politics inside the American state, and the trajectories of the railroad companies and workers, marked by various tensions, met. With this in view, it was established an analysis of the photographs through a database so it could be understood how the discourse was constituted in these pictures. From a quantitative analysis coupled with a detained approach to the photographic narratives found in the photographic collection, it was understood that the pictures relied on a discourse of harmony between workers and the railway in favor of a vision of social balance that suited the liberals expectations towards the war effort. Even though some images have the potency to challenge such view, the power of the mythography that understood labor as a source of social order pointed, in fact, to a discourse of domination in which the logic of capital was imposed on workers by means of photographic discourse.

Testo completoThis dissertation presents four science fiction movies, produced in the United States of America in the second post war period, The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), The Blob (1958), Fail-Safe (1964). In contemporary societies, this genre becomes relevant as an interpretation of the real, representing, interpreting, and discussing its historical context and the human relationships with the unknown, proposing ways of social organization and reflections about the nature of Science and Technology. By means of critical reading of the movies, the American imaginary regarding the international relations of the Cold War and the internal threats to society can be comprehended, without leaving behind the notion that these movies reach societies in different regions of the world and deal with universal questions.
