Well-known trade mark protection: confusion in EU and Japan
No full textIn this thesis concerning the protection of well-known trade marks against confusion in the European Community Trade Mark (CTM) and Japanese trademark systems, the author critically considers the difficulties in comprehensively defining ‘well-known trade mark’ in the relevant international trade mark instruments. After critical analysis of various definitions of both ‘trade mark’ and ‘well-known trade mark’, she undertakes a comparison of the definitions of the parallel concepts of ‘trade mark of repute’ and ‘syuchi-syohyo’, and also undertakes an assessment as to the extent to which these trade marks are protected against confusion and kondo in the CTM and Japanese systems, respectively. It is concluded that the protection of well- known trade marks against confusion in the CTM and Japan cannot be said to be completely clear, and the author identifies some areas for legal refor
Camera machine. Leo Marks, Michael Powell and Peeping Tom
No full textCamera / Machine is built on an audio interview with ‘Peeping Tom’ [1960] scriptwriter Leo Marks. In the interview Marks discusses Michael Powell and their working relationship before, during and after 1960’s ‘Peeping Tom’. Mark’s interview was candid, at times salacious, and at times funny but what really interested me was his discussion of the working relationship between writer and director.
The exploration of this relationship is at the heart of the film and provides a platform for academic investigation into the collaborative process between the film’s director and its scriptwriter. Marks is candid about his influence on the final version of the film, stating that Powell ‘didn’t object to an author putting in the shots as the author saw them…’ This assertion openly problematises the traditional accepted authority of the director as visual storyteller and when juxtaposed with Marks reputation for paranoia and his suspicion that his words might be used inappropriately or out of context, presents Marks as a questionable and possibly unreliable narrator. Using both archive and footage shoot specifically for the project, the film challenges traditional spectator expectations through its structure, its audio/visual composition and its editing strategy. Through the nature of the original audio recording, the use of an unexplained note taking ‘tape operative’ and a considered and abstracted image, viewers are encouraged to ‘lean into’ the film to fully grasp the significance and implications of Mark’s words and the insights offered through the connections presented. The film is designed to ask for active participation through a pro-active engagement with the material articulating the significance of the writer/director dichotomy and the reliability or not of a paranoid narrator

The Neofunctionalists Were (almost) Right: Politicization and European Integration
No full textThis paper examines the politicization of European integration. We begin by asking how neofunctionalism and its precursor, functionalism, conceive the politics of regional integration. Then we turn to the evidence of the past two decades and ask how politicization has, in fact, shaped the level, scope, and character of European integration.political science; integration theory; neo-functionalism; identity; multilevel governance
An exploration of the effects of group summative assessment marking on higher education students’ overall marks
No full textGroupwork and group summative assessment (GSA) are important learning, teaching and assessment methods used by many educational institutions, not just universities. The differences between the marks that HEI students were awarded for their own independent individual summative assessment (IISA) work and their GSA marks were explored.
The study topic presented itself while the author was contemplating studying for a first degree, when it became apparent that group working and group summative assessment was included in summative assessment methods used in the chosen programme.
Three data sources were from UK undergraduates and graduates, and one was from Australian PG students. Module marks data were collected from over 4000 HE students. They were divided into eighteen faculty/year data sets from four HEI sources.
A systematic difference was found between the distributions of GSA and IISA marks, supporting Lejk et al. (1999). Lower IISA ability students scored higher in GSA modules than in IISA modules. Higher IISA ability students scored lower in GSA modules.
In addition, the mean GSA mark was higher than the mean IISA mark. The standard deviation of the GSA marks was lower than the SD of the IISA marks. Both of these findings support Downie (2001). The relationship was found to vary between the data sets, modules, assessment items and especially between faculties.
The results and conclusions from this study will empower stakeholders, enabling them to be better informed in their choice of first-degree study programmes. They will also allow the use and impact of GSA to be more transparent and better understood, leading to further research and improvement in practice

Determinação volumétrica de iodo em diferentes amostras de sal de cozinha (NaCl) obtidas no mercado de Santa Maria, RS
No full textWe analysed the amount of iodine in nine samples from different marks of sodium chloride (NaCl). The samples were obtained during one year at intervals of four mounths, in Santa Maria, RS, Brasil.The method was oxi-reduction tritation using a 0.005 N sodium thiosulphate solution. The results found showed that the iodine concentration are, often, out of the normal limites (between 9.6 to 17.0 mg of I2 / kg of NaCl).Determinou-se o teor de iodo em amostras de nove diferentes marcas de sal de cozinha (NaCl), adquiridas a intervalos de quatro meses durante o período de um ano em Santa Maria, RS. Empregou-se a análise volumétrica de oxi-redução por meio de uma solução 0,005 N de tiossulfato de sódio.Os resultados demonstraram que, frequentemente, as concentrações de iodo estão fora dos limites normais (9,6 a 17,0 mg de I2/Kg de NaCI).
Authorship and resistance: Carolina Maria Jesus in discourse
No full textA partir dos fundamentos da Análise de Discurso francesa, construída por Michel Pêcheux, esta pesquisa objetivou investigar o modo como Carolina Maria de Jesus na posição de sujeito autor, por meio da sua primeira obra, Quarto de Despejo: diário de uma favelada (2014), publicada em 1960, e também da obra, Diário de Bitita (2016) relacionou-se com a escrita e se constituiu autor de literatura. Especificamente, buscou-se investigar, nas marcas de autoria desse sujeito, os efeitos de sentidos de resistência que fazem com que essa produção literária possa ser reconhecida como literatura de enfrentamento social, que joga o jogo da política literária, contribuindo, por fim, para a reflexão da ausência de autoras negras na escola e em outras instituições, apontando, portanto, alguns questionamentos acerca desse silenciamento. Para isso, foram selecionados recortes que pudessem trazer marcas linguísticas da relação do sujeito-autor com a escrita, de modo que fosse possível analisar o processo de autoria desse autor pela via da resistência. As análises apontam que a escrita de Carolina Maria de Jesus é um ato de resistência porque rompe com uma formação imaginária de autor (branco, classe média, com alto grau de escolaridade, intelectual), assim como faz ranger a política literária que funciona canonizando determinadas autoras e autores e suas obras e interditando outros. O sujeito-autor ao discursivizar sobre a fome da escrita e a escrita da fome pela tessitura do poético, provoca a formação de uma literatura de enfrentamento social. Além do mais, ao materializar sentidos sobre a escola em sua obra e também trabalhar uma literatura-filosófica, por meio de uma escrita-indagadora, esse sujeito-autor trabalha o interdiscurso no intradiscurso a fim de construir o seu projeto artístico literário, trazendo outras geografias literárias a partir do seu não-lugar na historiografia da literatura brasileiraFrom the foundations of the French Discourse Analysis, built by Michel Pêcheux, this research aimed to investigate the way Carolina Maria de Jesus, in the position of subject-to-author, through her first work, Room of Eviction: diary of a favelada (2014), published in 1960, and also of the work, Diário de Bitita (2016), was related to writing and is the author of literature. Specifically, we sought to investigate, in the authorship marks of this subject, the effects of senses of resistance that make this literary production can be recognized as social coping literature, which plays the game of literary politics, Finally, contributing to the reflection of the absence of black authors in school and other institutions, pointing out, therefore, some questions about this silencing. For this, we selected clippings that could bring linguistic marks of the subject-author\'s relationship with writing, so that it was possible to analyze the author\'s process of authorship through resistance. The analyzes point out that the writing of Carolina Maria de Jesus is an act of resistance because it breaks with an imaginary formation of author (white, middle class, with a high level of education, intellectual), as well as creaks the literary politics that works. canonizing certain authors and their works and interdicting others. The subject-to-author to discursivize about the hunger of writing and the writing of hunger by the poetic textures, causes the formation of a literature of social coping. Moreover, by materializing meanings about the school in his work and also working a philosophical lit-erature, by means of a research-writing, this subject-author works the interdiscourse in the intradiscourse in order to build his literary artistic project, bringing other literary geographies from their non-place in the historiography of Brazilian literatur
