        Investigation of products liability attitudes and opinions: a consumer perspective.: An article from: Journal of Consumer AffairsThis digital document is an article from Journal of Consumer Affairs, published by American Council on Consumer Interests on June 22, 1994.

From the supplier: The area of product safety and products liability legislation has been the subject of a great deal of academic research. Policymakers and business executives have been surveyed to determine their attitudes toward liability and product safety concerns. In addition, a substantial amount of research has focused on the impact of products liability trial outcomes on business and public policy. However, there are relatively few studies reporting opinions, attitudes, and predispositions of consumers regarding relevant liability topics. This article explores the consumer perspective on several critical questions relating to products liability and product safety. The results indicate a wide divergence of opinion exists among consumers on key issues shaping current trends in the products liability legal environment. Implications for consumers, business, and public policy are discussed. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)

Business advice: who you should fire to achieve more sales

Business advice: who you should fire to achieve more sales

by yourBusinessChannel (Category: People & Blogs)

More expert business advice from online marketing guru David Meerman Scott, as he reveals why online success could mean keeping certain people off your payroll:”The things that we have been talking about you can do for free.
It’s free to post a YouTube video on YouTube.
You can create a blog with virtually no money with the best blogging software services are only $100.00 or so a year.
However I will admit that these ideas take time.
It’s time consuming to create a blog, time consuming to create a good video, time consuming to interview your potential buyer persona to understand what their market problems are so you can make your content much more compelling.
And in some cases you can outsource some of that, but for the most part what I suggest to business owners to entrepreneurs to people who lead marketing departments, it’s a little bit radical.
I suggest that you fire everybody who has an advertising background and who has a communications background and instead if you are going to be successful with online marketing you hire people who have a publishing background.
People who have been reporters or editors at magazines, television stations, radio stations, magazines and newspapers.
You bring those people in because those people are the people who really understand this and that doesn’t need to be that expensive because I have news for you.
The average reporter makes less money than the average marketer.
So I would wholesale and take a look at where the people in your organisation are focussed on online marketing.
If they are focussed on it from an advertising perspective, from a message driven communications perspective I would get rid of them.
Or at least re-train them in such a way so that they have the skills of a journalist.”See more business news television shows from business expert David Meerman Scott, as he gives his top expert business advice at http://www.yourbusinesschannel.comFind out more about the very latest show releases, as well as other yourBusinessChannel news by visiting our blog at http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com/blog.aspx

The World Market for Trade Advertising Material and Commercial Catalogs: A 2007 Global Trade Perspective

From

A 2007 Global Trade Perspective


        The World Market for Trade Advertising Material and Commercial Catalogs: A 2007 Global Trade PerspectiveOn the demand side, exporters and strategic planners approaching the world market face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying trade advertising material and commercial catalogs? What is the dollar value of these imports? How much do the imports of trade advertising material and commercial catalogs vary from one country to another? Do exporters serving the world market have similar market shares across the importing countries? Which countries supply the most exports of trade advertising material and commercial catalogs? Which countries are buying their exports? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers? In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing the regional markets for imported and exported trade advertising material and commercial catalogs. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for each region, is based on a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the shares that countries are likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information for strategic planning purposes.

Party Funding And Campaign Financing in International Perspective (Columbia-London Law)

Party Funding And Campaign Financing in International Perspective (Columbia-London Law)

From

Party Funding And Campaign Financing in International Perspective (Columbia-London Law)


        Party Funding And Campaign Financing in International Perspective (Columbia-London Law)This volume deals with questions of political party funding and campaign financing, issues which arouse controversy in many parts of the world. How are the central actors in the political arena supposed to gather the funds necessary to operate effectively on behalf of their chosen political ends? And, how may they spend money in furtherance of their political objectives? The aim of this volume, the first in a new series of Columbia University/London University collaborative projects, is to explore these issues in the specific context of a number of national settings.The studies presented here show that financing questions cannot be addressed independent of the constitutional conventions of the country, the nature of the political parties in the country, and the means of access to publication and the media in any given nation. The national studies in this volume reveal a rich diversity in the approach to regulation in Australia, Canada, the European Union, Japan, New Zealand, Quebec, the United Kingdom and the United States. The topicality of the issues considered is reflected in the fact that since the book was first mooted there have been major decisions of the US Supreme Court and the Supreme Court of Canada, as well as an investigation and report by the Electoral Commission in the United Kingdom, all of which have a direct bearing on the legal and policy issues discussed in this book.
