  • Introduction
    CHAPTER – I INTRODUCTION 1.1 MEANING, DEFINITION OF RETAILING Introduction Retailing is the activity of selling goods and services to final consumers for their own personal use. It is concerned with getting views in their finished state into the hands of customers, who are prepared to pay for the pleasure of eating, wearing or experiencing particular product item. Retailing forms an integral part of the marketing mix. Customers are first introduced to the product at the retail store. Retail stores serve as communication hubs for customers. The role of retailing in the marketing mix is very significant. Retailing can be divided into two major classifications, viz., organized and unorganized. Organized retailing is one in which there is a proper organized ownership, permanent employees, fixed place involving standardized business practices. Unorganized retailing is one which is not organized. Often, the family members take care of the business. The size of the business is very small and sometimes its form part of the residence of the owner. There is no fixed place for shop and the business practices are not at all organized. In India, majority of the retail outlets come under the unorganized category. The organized sector is slowly entering the Indian market. Retailing consists of all business activities associated with the sale of all goods and services in small quantities directly to the consumers for their personal, family or household use. It involves the sale of merchandize from a fixed location, such as a store, for direct consumption by the customer. It can be defined as an activity that ensures maximum satisfaction for the customers from the buying process.

  • Copyright Piracy and the Indian Film Industry: a “Realist” Assessment
    BANERJEE ARTICLE (Do Not Delete) 10/28/2016 3:03 PM COPYRIGHT PIRACY AND THE INDIAN FILM INDUSTRY: A “REALIST” ASSESSMENT ARPAN BANERJEE* Abstract In India, the academic discourse surrounding intellectual property (IP) has been marked by great skepticism. Global IP laws have been viewed as a Western imposition detrimental to national interests. In this paper, I will make the case for a “realist” approach to film piracy in India, i.e., an approach that is rooted in legal pragmatism and draws from the New Legal Realism (NLR) movement. I will suggest a rough template for such an approach, referring to seven broad elements: a) international relations realism; b) contextualization of IP; c) contextualization of copyright; d) the views and interests of the film industry (including creators); e) the working of the pirate economy; f) Permission is hereby granted for noncommercial reproduction of this Article in whole or in part for education or research purposes, including the making of multiple copies for classroom use, subject only to the condition that the name of the author, a complete citation, and this copyright notice and grant of permission be included in all copies. *Alexander von Humboldt Foundation German Chancellor’s Fellow, Bucerius Law School, Hamburg (2016-17); Assistant Professor and Executive Director, Centre for Intellectual Property and Technology Law, Jindal Global Law School, India (on research leave). A shorter version of this paper was awarded first prize at the 9th ATRIP Essay Competition for Young Researchers in Intellectual Property Law (2015), and presented at the 35th ATRIP Congress at Jagiellonian University, Krakow, 26-29 July, 2016.

  • Contouring Urban Citizenship in Postcolonial Chennai
    The London School of Economics and Political Science Absent societies: Contouring urban citizenship in postcolonial Chennai Pushpa Gowri Arabindoo A thesis submitted to the Department of Geography and Environment of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2008 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. Signature: Date: 01 September 2008 2 Abstract This thesis contours the dynamics of urban citizenship in a postcolonial city, against a cautionary note that such cities are undergoing a unique metamorphosis triggered by the national pursuit of neo-liberalisation policies. In an existing condition of sharply divided geographies, postcolonial cities, by becoming key portals to the flows of trans-nationalised capital, are being subject to a spatial reordering resulting in heightened forms of socio-economic inequality. Amidst a reduced terrain of common allegiances, neo-liberal citizenship rejects the ideal of commensurable citizens and is more conducive to a bourgeois ethic of right, which now defines the cityscape.

    Tipping Scales with Talk: Conversation, Commerce, and Obligation on the edge of Thanjavur, India By Laura Corinne Brown A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Professor Judith T. Irvine, Chair Professor E.Webb Keane Jr. Professor Bruce Mannheim Professor Farina Mir A maḷi kaṭai /phonebooth in central Thanjavur, October of 2006. Laura Corinne Brown All Rights Reserved 2010 Dedication To my parents, Robert and Linda Brown, and to T. (K.) Kalaivani. ii Acknowledgements Many mistakes were made in the course of writing this dissertation, but my choice in interlocutors was never among them. This project would not have been possible without the help and friendship of T. (K.) Kalaivani. Her hospitality, and that of her family, sustained me through fieldwork. Her questions, criticism, and generosity continue to inspire me. While in Thanjavur, I incurred many debts of the sort that can never be repaid. I learned that it is possible to turn strangers into family, that there are people for whom generosity is much more than a practical strategy, and that the vegetables sold in shops I studied could be unforgettably delicious. In order to preserve the anonymity of people who are mentioned in the dissertation, I will avoid giving detailed accounts of all that I owe. Instead, I simply offer deep and heartfelt thanks to the families of: S. Singaram, J. Selvakumar, D. Velu Murugan, L. Prem, J. Abdul, Vera Ragavan, H.
