For this reason I am greatly indebted to a number of people who have significantly contributed to the shaping and final realization of this dissertation.

Prof. Thomas James Solomon. I thank him for supporting me academically up to the very end. I cannot forget his very critical comments and insights that have shaped my thinking and view points. His very pragmatic approach and attention to detail has made me a better scholar, writer, and thinker. In the same way, I thank Prof. Paul Berliner who contributed greatly especially in laying a foundation for my doctoral project. I thank Assoc. Prof. Sigbjørn Apeland who has not only been a friend but also a great support academically.
