As the locus points for the majority of international and domestic trade criminal network access to a port can provide outsized benefits. While ports are physical spaces they are underlined by complex systems incorporating public and private agencies, companies and small entities. Underlying the administrative and logistical activity at the port is a jurisdictional web of public and private security regulatory agencies. The complexity of the environment creates vulnerabilities that criminal networks can use to gain access to ports. This dissertation developed a Seaport Vulnerability Framework (SVF), developed from the rational choice and situational crime prevention literature with a multi-disciplinary focus that allows security stakeholders to identify whether a port is at risk of utilization by criminal networks. The SVF is used to measure and analyze criminological vulnerability in the top 30 U.S. container seaports and in-depth in a case study at the Port of New York and New Jersey. Finally, I examine the implications of the SVF for port and maritime security policy and port security assessments in the U.S. and worldwide. iv Contents List of tables.............................................................................................................................................. xiii List of figures ............................................................................................................................................ xiv Abbreviations ............................................................................................................................................ xv Chapter Outline .......................................................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 1- Introduction ............................................................................................................................. 3 1.1 Problem statement ............................................................................................................................... 3 1.2 Definitions ........................................................................................................................................... 4 1.3 Maritime transportation system .......................................................................................................... 5 1.4 Shipping container transit ................................................................................................................... 5 1.5 Port security initiatives........................................................................................................................ 7 1.6 Limitations of current approach .......................................................................................................... 9 Chapter 2- Theoretical framework ......................................................................................................... 11 2.1 Seaports as crime places ................................................................................................................... 11 2.2 Seaports as crime generators ............................................................................................................. 14 2.3 Seaports as crime attractors ............................................................................................................... 14 2.4 Defensible space at seaports ............................................................................................................. 15 2.5 Seaports as “Risky Facilities” ........................................................................................................... 17 2.6.

  • Cancel Culture: Posthuman Hauntologies in Digital Rhetoric and the Latent Values of Virtual Community Networks
    CANCEL CULTURE: POSTHUMAN HAUNTOLOGIES IN DIGITAL RHETORIC AND THE LATENT VALUES OF VIRTUAL COMMUNITY NETWORKS By Austin Michael Hooks Heather Palmer Rik Hunter Associate Professor of English Associate Professor of English (Chair) (Committee Member) Matthew Guy Associate Professor of English (Committee Member) CANCEL CULTURE: POSTHUMAN HAUNTOLOGIES IN DIGITAL RHETORIC AND THE LATENT VALUES OF VIRTUAL COMMUNITY NETWORKS By Austin Michael Hooks A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee August 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 By Austin Michael Hooks All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT This study explores how modern epideictic practices enact latent community values by analyzing modern call-out culture, a form of public shaming that aims to hold individuals responsible for perceived politically incorrect behavior via social media, and cancel culture, a boycott of such behavior and a variant of call-out culture. As a result, this thesis is mainly concerned with the capacity of words, iterated within the archive of social media, to haunt us— both culturally and informatically. Through hauntology, this study hopes to understand a modern discourse community that is bound by an epideictic framework that specializes in the deconstruction of the individual’s ethos via the constant demonization and incitement of past, current, and possible social media expressions. The primary goal of this study is to understand how these practices function within a capitalistic framework and mirror the performativity of capital by reducing affective human interactions to that of a transaction.

  • The Retail Pulse Updates & Trends
    May 2013 The Retail Pulse Updates & Trends Real estate investment services May 2013 New York City’s Strong Investor Demand Defi es Property Sales Volatility Tourists from around the world are not the only ones interested in New York City’s retail offerings, real estate investors have been scouring the City to BUY retail properties boosting sales volume at the end of 2012. Yet despite the numerous anecdotal stories confi rming how New York’s economy is thriving, the retail property sales sta- tistics were disappointing in the fi rst quarter of 2013. Volume fell signifi cantly, but this was expected given the rush at the end of 2012 to close deals before the capital gains tax increased as it did at the 11th hour. As per Chairman and CEO, Peter Hauspurg, “To no one’s surprise, sales volume fell in the fi rst quarter but investor inter- est has been strong. Because prices are climbing every day, more sellers are bringing properties to the market. While we will not see the same fourth quarter 2012 volume in the next quarter or two, the statistics will start to refl ect the high demand we are seeing in the market.” This issue of Eastern Consolidated’s Retail Pulse report will review every statistic pertaining to the retail industry in New York City. The fi ndings are compelling and show why New York City has retained its title of “Retail Capital of the World:” — Retail property sales volume declined in early 2013, but this was expected given the surge at the end of 2012.

  • Tracking Fraudulent Activities in Real Estate Transactions
    Tracking Fraudulent Activities in Real Estate Transactions Thaer SHUNNAR, Palestine and Michael BARRY, Canada Key words: ABC-Construction, Oklahoma Flip, Outlier Detection, Data Mining, Mortgage Fraud, Fraud in Real Estate, Classification, Quadratic Discriminant analysis. SUMMARY Land transaction fraud is a serious problem in many parts of the world, and it occurs under different land administration systems. In general, property transaction fraud falls into two categories; fraud by forgery and fraud by impersonation. Racketeers have three general motives to engage in real estate fraud: (1) to further other criminal activities, (2) for direct profit, and (3) to shelter money derived from other criminal activities. This paper discusses fraud specific to real estate. Many attributes of the real estate sector make it prone to criminal investment. Real estate is a high value, sizeable economic sector. However, it lacks transparency; each real estate object is unique, it provides a safe investing environment, and speculation in real estate is a tradition. Fraud in real estate is widespread in developed and developing countries, and in the former many of the fraudulent schemes are enabled by technology. The paper describes some of the schemes used to commit property frauds and the patterns that might be identified in a land registry database. Several indicators are used to identify a fraud case. These indicators may be related to the real estate object, the owner, the financier, the financing method or the purchase sum. The testing of a classification model using Quadratic Discriminant Analysis to identify real estate objects that might have been a target of an ABC-Construction scheme is described.

Member firms have experience in a host of practice areas that fall under the labor and employment umbrella including (for example), litigation of discrimination, retaliation, harassment, ERISA and wage and hour claims; defense of class actions; trade secret litigation; affirmative action, OFCCP, Sarbanes-Oxley; OSHA compliance; Union negotiations and Arbitrations; training, counseling, handbooks and conducting internal investigations. Through the Pac, NAMWOLF brings together law firms and major employers to create mutually beneficial partnerships, develop cost effective workplace solutions, provide effective legal defense and achieve winning results. About NAMWOLF Founded in 2001, NAMWOLF is a nonprofit trade association comprised of minority and women-owned law firms who have exhibited excellence in the legal profession, and other interested parties throughout the United States. Many corporations and public entities committed to diversifying their outside law firm ranks have focused on the utilization of minority and female attorneys at majority firms. However, the most effective way for corporations and public entities to increase diversity in the legal profession is to increase their utilization of minority and women-owned law firms. NAMWOLF’s mission is to promote true diversity in the legal profession by fostering the development of long lasting relationships between preeminent minority and women-owned law firms and corporations and public entities.
