Distribution Of Television Programs As A Telecommunications Service, Stanisław Piątek Nov 2015

Distribution Of Television Programs As A Telecommunications Service, Stanisław Piątek

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

The Article concerns the consequences of declaring the service of ‘providing television services to subscribers’ to be a ‘telecommunications service’, which resulted from judicial developments as well as from a statement of the Telecommunications Regulator. The change was meant to provide subscribers of television services with legal protection corresponding to that available to subscribers of telecommunications services, breaking free from the established, literal interpretation of EU and national law. However, apart from the expected changes concerning the relationships between service providers and subscribers, the paper shows also the unexpected results of the new interpretation which, in turn, do not have …

The Mechanisms Of Moral Disengagement In George W. Bush’S “War On Terror” Rhetoric, Stefan Cartledge, Lorraine Bowman-Grieve, Marek Palasinski Nov 2015

The Mechanisms Of Moral Disengagement In George W. Bush’S “War On Terror” Rhetoric, Stefan Cartledge, Lorraine Bowman-Grieve, Marek Palasinski

The Qualitative Report

Despite considerable literature on the Bush administration’s war on terrorism rhetoric, little attention has been paid to its discourse of moral disengagement, leaving an important and still relevant gap that this paper aims to address. Rather than approaching this gap in terms of an archival historical analysis that is disconnected from the present, it proposes an exploratory revisit of the rhetoric that the benefits of hindsight might enrich and, we argue, aid in understanding connections to the current post-invasion turmoil and the gradual ISIS takeover. Having subjected nineteen presidential speeches to qualitative content analysis, we identified a number of moral …
