Wild Plant Classification In Little Dixie : Variation In A Regional Culture, Justin M. Nolan

Journal of Ecological Anthropology

This study examines the relation between folk expertise and wild plant classification in Little Dixie, a seven-county vernacular cultural region in central Missouri. A successive pile-sort task was administered to ten local wild plant "experts" and ten "novices" of Euro-American descent to investigate how ethnobotanical knowledge influences the cognitive construction of folk taxonomies. The results indicate that experts categorize plants according to utilitarian features (e.g., edibility, medicinal value) and morphology (e.g., herbs, trees) while novices rely almost exclusively on morphological traits. While the classification strategies of experts and novices are substantially different, a single categorization system is common to both …

An Empirical Exploration Of Bus Travel Times And Dwell Times In A Highly Competitive Exclusive Busway, Daniel A. Rodriguez, Arturo Ardila

Journal of Public Transportation

Busway transit has reemerged as a cost-effective transportation alternative for providing urban mobility. This article examines the operational characteristics of an exclusive busway svstem with high passenger ridership and subject to the competitive forces of individual operators. Results of a running time model suggest that the increase in running time associated with an additional passenger movement is low but that the delay imposed by recurrent vehicle deceleration and acceleration related to frequent stops is high. Frequent vehicle stops reduce fuel efficiency, increase pollution, reduce travel time, and decrease productivity. Results of several specifications of dwell-time regression models indicate that established …

Liberty, Equality, And Privacy: Choosing A Legal Foundation For Gay Rights, Richard A. Epstein

Faculty Articles

These general ruminations play out in explicit fashion in connection with the question of whether equal protection or privacy is the appropriate framework in which to analyze the rights of gays and lesbians. Here, my first instinct is to bridle at the way the question is formulated because it seems better to ask what rights all individuals have under the Constitution just by virtue of being citizens of the United States or persons subject to its laws. I am much more comfortable with starting from general principles and reaching a specific conclusion about a given group, than I am with …

First Amendment Liberalism As Global Legal Architecture: Ascriptive Groups And The Problems Of The Liberal Ngo Model Of International Civil Society, Benedict Kingsbury

Faculty Articles

The growing sense that there exists, or ought soon to exist, an international civil society has begun to inspire among its participants and proponents a quest for a more complete articulation of normative principles, perhaps even a kind of constitution, to guide the future development of such a society and to build a sense of coherence and solidarity among its adherents. In this short essay I will argue first that an operational code resembling First Amendment liberalism has been the de facto guide in the construction of international civil society, and second that this code encourages voluntaristic non-governmental organizations ("NGOs") …

Draft Convention On Jurisdiction And Recognition Of Judgments In Intellectual Property Matters, Rochelle C. Dreyfuss, Jane C. Ginsburg

Faculty Articles

This proposal is meant to spur the intellectual property bar to consider whether it would be desirable to create a regime for international enforcement of intellectual property law judgments. Such a convention could be adopted under the auspices of the World Intellectual Property Organization ("WIPO") or through the World Trade Organization ("WTO"). There are several reasons to believe that an instrument drafted specifically for intellectual property disputes would be particularly advantageous. First, for intellectual property disputes, efficiency should be a principal target. Modern distribution methods, particularly satellite and Internet transmissions, make it increasing likely that intellectual property rights will be …

Exploring Visitor Experiences On Going-To-The-Sun Road In Glacier National Park, Robert N. Giordano

Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers

Going-to-the-Sun Road (GTSR) is one of the premier road facilities in the world. As the only cross-mountain route through Glacier National Park, the road brings nearly two million visitors a year into the heart of Montana wilderness. How to meet this demand for travel while protecting the nature of the visitor experience and the pristine setting for which the experience exists is a challenge of on-going complexity.

This research was designed to assist park managers in determining future changes to GTSR by describing and analyzing the experiences on the road today. Through 40 onsite interviews at Logan Pass (the pinnacle …
