Organization of the Dissertation. The thesis seeks to provide informative analysis to various answers which constitute the state practice. Each chapter follows a standard pattern, starting with an introduction showing what interests and why India has interests in a particular given area of law. Thereafter, the chapter attempts to answer various questions with the aim to assess the state practice. The most important questions are when and how India began its participation in the negotiations of a particular regime? What were the long-term and mid-term national interests, concerns and needs of India for adopting a particular position? Which were the major forums and instruments in which India participated? What was the level of participation, the nature of participation? Were there any instruments or forums in which India chose not to participate and what were the reasons for the lack of participation? What were the major positions or proposals of India? Which Indian position or approach was accepted or gained attention of international community and what was India’s reaction thereafter during the implementation phase? And, which position of India was rejected or not accommodated and how did India react to such an outcome? Individual actors, institutions and forums shape international law by playing an important role in the making and implementation of international law. Therefore, this study attempts to identify the key offices that are normally involved in the negotiation process. For example, can we attribute any particular results in the area of environment and disarmament to the personalities of late Prime Minister Xxx. Xxxxxx or Mr. Xxxxx Xxxxxx?79 Whether and to what extent international law has decisively influenced domestic law-making process of India?80 Finally, the thesis seeks to assess the overall contribution of India in the codification and progressive development of international law. What have been the major challenges in the field, and how did India contribute to overcome those challenges? What should be the role of India in future and how should it translate the vision

Organization of the Dissertation. The remainder of this dissertation is organized as follows. I begin with a review of the relevant theoretical streams and literatures that inform my study. I highlight their interrelationships, gaps, and the key assumptions that I make. I then develop a theoretical framework with specific hypotheses that are used to test the contingent effects of founding team prior experience on new venture survival. Next, I describe my research setting and the deregulatory environment that was created with passage of the Telecom Act of 1996. I examine the population of new competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), or local telecommunications providers, which resulted from this legislation and competed in Georgia. My focus is on the two alternative business models that were pursued by these entrepreneurs and how the two models differed along several key dimensions of complexity. I conclude with an explanation of my data and methods, the results of my empirical analyses and tests, and a discussion of the core implications and anticipated future directions of this research.

Organization of the Dissertation. This research seeks to aid therapists in understanding the needs of counseling for intercultural premarital couples and provide an initial rubric on which therapists can further enhance and apply strategies that will benefit intercultural premarital couples. Chapter 1 provides an overview of what to expect from the dissertation and how the researcher has arrived at her conclusions and recommendations for future therapists. The chapter includes the problem statement, statement of purpose, research questions and, sub questions, overview of methodology, rationale and significance, role of the researcher, research assumptions, and organization of the dissertation. Chapter 2 offers a theological reflection on intercultural premarital couples counseling. It looks into pastoral theological methodology in general and the correlation methodology in particular and explores implications of bridging the gap between intercultural and interfaith marriages within and outside the Church. This chapter also looks at the theoretical basis for therapists or faith leaders as intercultural couple counselors. It offers responses to the following questions: What characteristics are required in therapists or care givers to be engaged in intercultural counseling? What are the ways in which to understand the significance and relevance of this topic in the current geo-political, cultural scenario wherein the world is becoming a ‘global village.’? Chapter 3 takes a deeper look into the clinical literature providing an integrated conceptual and theoretical framework for therapists and other caregivers who work with intercultural premarital couples counseling.
Organization of the Dissertation. In Chapter 2, I lay out the theoretical frameworks that inform this study. First, I briefly review the literature on national identity and the changes brought about by globalization. Then, I define transnationalism and cosmopolitanism, and describe the literature in the areas of global and transnational sociology. Finally, I define identities and discuss the different bases of identity, making predictions for possible ways that transnationalism, cosmopolitanism, and national identity may impact one another on the individual level. Chapter 3 provides an overview of the research design and empirical methods I used to explore transnationalism, cosmopolitanism, and national identity. The research uses a mix of quantitative and qualitative data collected longitudinally, and consists of 460 surveys completed by 175 participants and 54 in-depth interviews with 33 participants. In this chapter I describe my research design, the sample of CUSO International volunteers and recruitment procedures, survey and interview instruments, and data analysis strategies. I conclude the chapter with univariate descriptions of the sample and bivariate correlations that are relevant to each of the subsequent results chapters. There are three results chapters in the dissertation. The first, Chapter 4, focuses on transnationalism. Using quantitative data, I answer the question of whether or not international sojourners in this study see themselves as transnational, and what factors lead to self-identified transnationalism. Then, using qualitative interview data, I describe what transnationalism means to international sojourners. The qualitative findings indicate that transnationalism is a dimension of role identities, whereby individuals see themselves as connected to their host countries through roles they establish with locals – specifically romantic and work roles. Results for cosmopolitanism in Chapter 5 are presented in a similar fashion. I begin with quantitative data analysis to assess the extent to which participants see themselves as cosmopolitans and what individual and sojourn characteristics give rise to cosmopolitanism. The qualitative interview data illustrate what cosmopolitanism means to these participants. I find that individuals see themselves as cosmopolitans based on their history of international experiences that set them apart from other people, and the values that develop as a result of these international experiences. Thus, I argue that cosmopolitanism is a p...
Organization of the Dissertation. The remainder of the dissertation is organized as follows: Chapter 2 outlines the background concepts in the area of SLAs, Grid and web services. Chapter 3 analyzes the related literature. In Chapter 4, we describe our proposed consumer-centric SLA creation and QoS-based SLA template selection framework. We present evaluations of the proposed framework in Chapter 5 which describes the simulation layout and then discusses sets of experiments conducted. The dissertation is concluded and some pointers on directions for future work are given in Chapter 6.
Organization of the Dissertation. The remainder of this dissertation proceeds as follows. Chapter 2 provides the theoretical basis by which I approach mental health trainees’ clinical judgments and training. In particular, I draw from and combine several theoretical frameworks from organizational sociology: decision-making theory, neoinstitutional theory, and insights from the sociology of professions. Briefly, the theoretical traditions fit together in the following way. March and Simon’s (1958) decision-making theory provides the concept of the boundedly-rational actor, an actor constrained by limited information and a particular vantage point, often without clear preferences or objective means to compare choices. The boundedly-rational actor consequently makes good-enough decisions (satisfices) rather than best decisions (maximizes). Neoinstitutionalism introduces the concept of institutional logics (Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx 1991), or cognitive maps that guide the activities and beliefs of individuals within particular organizational fields such as the field of mental health care. Institutional logics constrain how actors perceive the world. As such they provide an explanation for why boundedly-rational actors operating within the same organizational field make similar decisions. Neoinstitutional theory holds that members of the same profession are influenced by the same logic via a process called normative isomorphism (XxXxxxxx and Xxxxxx 1991). Not all organizational fields, however, contain a single, overarching logic (Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx; Xxxxxxxxx 2007). What of an organizational field that contains multiple, competing logics, and multiple, competing professions? How do actors within such variegated fields choose between logics? Xxxxxx’x (1988) work on the sociology of professions offers one potential answer. In an organizational arena characterized by multiple potential logics and different professions fighting over jurisdictions, professionals from a particular discipline share a logic. Each professional logic within any given organizational field contains elements that directly conflict with the logics shared by professionals from competing professions, as well as elements that are widely shared by all professions. I additionally draw from the professional socialization literature which emphasizes that as trainees move toward gaining professional credentials via university training professionals-in-training learn not only how to do the work of the profession but also to think like ...
