  • Analysis of the Effects of Air Transport Liberalisation on the Domestic Market in Japan
    Chikage Miyoshi Analysis Of The Effects Of Air Transport Liberalisation On The Domestic Market In Japan COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICS PhD Thesis COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICS PhD Thesis Academic year 2006-2007 Chikage Miyoshi Analysis of the effects of air transport liberalisation on the domestic market in Japan Supervisor: Dr. G. Williams May 2007 This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Cranfield University 2007. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced without the written permission of the copyright owner Abstract This study aims to demonstrate the different experiences in the Japanese domestic air transport market compared to those of the intra-EU market as a result of liberalisation along with the Slot allocations from 1997 to 2005 at Haneda (Tokyo international) airport and to identify the constraints for air transport liberalisation in Japan. The main contribution of this study is the identification of the structure of deregulated air transport market during the process of liberalisation using qualitative and quantitative techniques and the provision of an analytical approach to explain the constraints for liberalisation. Moreover, this research is considered original because the results of air transport liberalisation in Japan are verified and confirmed by Structural Equation Modelling, demonstrating the importance of each factor which affects the market. The Tokyo domestic routes were investigated as a major market in Japan in order to analyse the effects of liberalisation of air transport. The Tokyo routes market has seven prominent characteristics as follows: (1) high volume of demand, (2) influence of slots, (3) different features of each market category, (4) relatively low load factors, (5) significant market seasonality, (6) competition with high speed rail, and (7) high fares in the market.

  • Ravens -9 at Jaguars (2 Units) Forget All the Old Clichés About Taking The
    Ravens -9 at Jaguars (2 units) Forget all the old clichés about taking the Monday night 'dog. You don't want any part of Jacksonville. Neither do the Jaguars' fans. Apathy and boring football reign in Jacksonville. The Jaguars are averaging a meager 12 points per game. They rank last in total offense and in passing. Maurice Jones-Drew is their only legitimate star and he's going to get bottled up by a Baltimore defense than is permitting only 76.6 rushing yards per game, third-best in the NFL entering Week 7. The Ravens came into this week allowing only 14.2 points a game, tops in the NFL. There are some who believe this year's Ravens defense is their best ever. It's going to be a nightmare for rookie Blaine Gabbert, who was thrown into the fire and remains a serious work in progress. Gabbert can expect heavy pressure and blitzing. So far he's failed to handle the pressure completing 18-of-42 (42 percent) when blitzed and being sacked eight times on blitzes. The Jaguars have shown little confidence in Gabbert. Their main purpose seems to be just to keep him out of harm's way. Jacksonville was calling running plays down by two touchdowns against the Steelers last week. Jack Del Rio is a lame duck coach. The Jaguars have dropped five in a row. Their defense is far too weak to carry such a struggling offense. Ravens coach John Harbaugh usually takes care of business against weak opponents. The Ravens are 15- 6 ATS the past 21 times they've met a foe with a losing mark.

  • Reversing the Queue: Performance, Legitimacy, and Minority Hiring
    Reversing the Queue: Performance, Legitimacy, and Minority Hiring Andrew Hill David Thomas Working Paper 11-032 Copyright © 2010 by Andrew Hill and David Thomas Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Reversing the Queue: Performance, Legitimacy, and Minority Hiring Andrew Hill Doctoral Candidate in Management [email protected] Harvard Business School David Thomas H. Naylor Fitzhugh Professor of Business Administration [email protected] Harvard Business School Abstract: Studies of minority hiring have found that poor-performing firms or firms in highly competitive contexts are more likely to hire minority candidates. However, most work has examined hiring for entry and mid-level positions, not senior management. Management positions differ in terms of the amount of uncertainty in identifying candidates qualified for the job; in the intensity of external evaluations of both managerial and firm performance; and in the level of accountability for that performance. Furthermore, the influence of senior minority managers on hiring practices may differ substantially, depending on where a manager sits in the firm’s hierarchy. Examining hiring practices on coaching staffs of teams in America’s National Football League, from 1970-2007, we find that better- performing teams are less likely to hire minorities to fill lower-level and mid-level coaching positions (as predicted by prior literature on labor queues), but that such teams are more likely to hire minorities into leadership positions. We also find that minority head coaches hire more minorities for subordinate coaching jobs, but that the presence of a minority offensive or defensive coordinator (with a white head coach) is a significant, negative predictor of minority hiring in junior and mid-level positions.
