...1 of 3 Drawing on what you have learnt from the DD102 module materials and your work on TMA 01, outline some examples of difference on City Road, Cardiff. Difference is defined as the contrasts between groupings of people, such as those based on gender, class, age, sexuality and race or ethnicity (Allen and Blakeley, 2015, p.25) In this essay I will discuss the differences that exist on City Road by looking at the consumers of City Road and the services that are available to them in the form of shops, food outlets, accessibility and leisure facilities. The variety of shops on City Road shows the differences between the various consumers. Charity shops and pawnbrokers are used by people who are either on a low income or experiencing economic difficulties (Allen & Blakeley 2015 p.42-43). They may be unemployed and be considered to be lower or working class. These establishments are generally used as a means to make ends meet financially and are more often used out of necessity than choice. Another service that would be used by these people is the food bank, catering for people who are unable to provide for themselves or their families.(The Open University 2015a) Users of the food bank service have no choice in the food they receive and as a charity it is reliant on the goodwill of others. This group of people also have very little choice in the decisions that they make regarding where they can shop. Consumer services of this type would be used regardless of...

...daily, it is inevitable that Facebook will have a negative affect on their romantic relationships. There are many reasons why people would use Facebook daily. Many people use it as a way to keep in contact with family and friends around the world, for sharing interests and keeping up to date with their surroundings or events going on around them. Many people in some way are interested in someone on their friends list or may be friends with someone that they would like to impress (i.e. an ex partner, family members, coworkers or “the one that got away”). Because there is that ‘audience’ through Facebook, almost everyone who uses Facebook puts his or her “best foot forward” so to speak. People don’t want to air out their dirty laundry in front of family and friends so people are sure to post the best of themselves from their quirks to exciting pictures. It’s in human nature to want to present their best self-image in any situation. On Facebook an individual can have anywhere from thirty to one thousand ‘Friends’, as long as they have an audience and control over their webpage they will have a positive self-presentation. “The ability to highlight certain attributes can create opportunities for multiple relationships based on fantasy rather than reality” Hertlein (2012 p. 381).

...Moto-Mods When one thinks of a motorcycle, Harley-Davidson generally comes to mind. Harley- Davidson is America’s oldest and most renowned motorcycle company (Corporate Design Foundation, 1995-2011). The company prides itself with its distinguished design that customers have come to love and has been a part of the company since its beginning. Because of that, Harley-Davidson has chosen not to abandon its original design but simply to enhance it. Accordingly, the company has given birth of a new idea to customize the tanks and fenders without altering the prestigious Harley design. Self-application decals called Moto-Mods are less expensive than opting to paint the motorcycle parts, and it aligns with the company’s vision. A successful marketing plan of this new idea involves a thorough research of the potential strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats, and trends. When marketing a new product, the company must consider numerous different variables. Specifically, Harley-Davidson discusses the segmentation and target market for the new product, and how it relates to the Moto-Mods. Also described is how consumers have an effect on the market strategy. The promotional strategy of the company is dependent upon the target market and its buying preferences. Last, every successful company has competitors and although Harley has its customers are “Harley for Life” they are trying to offer products like the competition that will interest consumers shopping for a bike...

...is seen as being the very meterial out of which our identites are being construct – we become what we consume. Mackay (1997, p.4) In the 20 th century mass production has led to the commodification of culture, with the rise of cultural industries. Consumption serves the interests of manufactures seeking greater profit, and citisens have become the passive victims of advertisers. Mackay (1997, p.5) Boudreillard has a theory about consumer commodities. In late capitalism they developed the capacity to take up a wide range of symbolic associations which overlay their initial use-value and hence become comodity signs which leads to the loss of a sense of reality.Featherstone (1991,p. 56). Commodities came to lack authenticity and met ' false needs' . Consumers began to have a passive role , be manipulated, rather than creative and active beings. Karl Marx in his theory of capitalism says that production is for the market and for profit. Veblen's in his reaserch explains how goods are used as symbolic markers of social status, and how consumption is for the purpose of imprassing others.Mackay (1997, p.4) In 1984, Bourdieu provides a seeing of social relations as cultural as well as econimical. He argues that cultural capital is distributed in such way that social groups have different capacities to vest cultural value in symbolic goods.Mackay (1997, p.7) Consumption is the articulation of a sense of identity. What shapes our identity? Is it something that comes from inside...

...Dan Lupascu, Raluca Gâlea 155 CONSIDERATIONS ON REGULATING THE ENGAGEMENT IN THE NEW ROMANIAN CIVIL CODE1) AND SOME FOREIGN LEGISLATION Dan LUPAùCU Raluca GÂLEA Abstract The new Civil Code brings back into the Romanian legal landscape a very rare and apparently obsolete institution – the engagement. This article analyses the evolution of engagement, its substantial and formal conditions, the content of this sui generis act and also the sensible issues concerning the judicial effects of the engagement, especially as regards its cessation. Also, elements of comparative law are depicted, highlighting the correlation between the consequences of breeching the engagement and the fault of parties in other law systems. Keywords: engagement, the promise to marry, breeching the engagement, accountability, gifts. 1. Introduction The engagement has a considerable history, being mentioned even in the Old Testament, under the Hebrew term of „aras” having the meaning of „engagement to marry”2) or „vow to marry”. As regards the religious implications, the man and woman were already considered as husband and wife, without the right to sexual relations until the marriage3). According to Vasile the Great, breech of these interdictions was sanctioned with exclusion from communion for 11 years. Considering the engaged persons as being married also implied a series of extremely severe consequences. For example, the priest could refuse to wed a person who was initially engaged during...

...Mediating Mark Duggan The press is a section of the mass media industry that focuses on presenting current news to the public and is one of the largest forms of media we have in Britain. The press and media in general insist that it is only fact and truth that is reported to the public, however, there are times when the media either permits itself to be manipulated or to act as the agent of manipulation; seemingly, we as the public, receive the opinions of the few, select people that are running the mass media who use the power of mediation to position audience response through encoded values with the media acting as an opinion leader (2-step flow). Mark Duggan was shot by armed police in Tottenham, August 2011, after officers stopped the cab he was in to make an arrest. Duggan was unarmed at the time yet just hours later stories were circulating the media about a dramatic ‘shootout’ with Duggan represented as a ‘violent gangster’. Within just two days of his death, riots had erupted in London as well as copycat riots in other cities up and down the country and reported globally by the press. Before getting out of hand, the riots were a direct response to the actions of the police. Mark Duggan didn’t hit the front page until after the riots had begun and it is likely that, similar to the case of Stephen Lawrence, the audience will never fully know the reality of the initial event. The final inquest report (2014) ruled that the killing was lawful. Looking back on the newspaper...

...Health Care Reform: Impact on Patient Safety, Quality of Care, and Economics November 7, 2015 Health Care Reform: Impact on Economics, Patient Safety and Quality of Care With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010, never before in the history of the United States has there been a more opportune time to cater to the stakeholders, American citizens, and health care industry to improve quality and the way in which health care is delivered. Health care reform has changed and improved the entire spectrum of the health care environment. The three primary goals of the ACA are; consumer protection, improving quality/ lowering cost and increasing access to affordable care (DHHS 2014). Health care reform has affected all three of these goals and have impacted both positively and negatively, patient safety, quality of care and American economics. Impact of Health Care Reform on the Economy According to a study by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), there have been substantial savings in Healthcare costs. One major reason for the savings is preventative health care. Preventative healthcare saves money on prevention and early detection of illnesses and diseases. The result is people don’t have to wait until their illness becomes so serious that they end up having to go to an emergency room for costly procedures. It has also lowered heath care cost by making preventative health care available and affordable for 33 million Americans who would...
