Modeling Consumers’ Adoption Intentions of Remote Mobile Payments in the United Kingdom
Mobile payments (MPs) are predicted to be one of the future's most successful mobile services but have achieved limited acceptance in developed countries to date. PCs are still the preferred technology for online shopping in the United Kingdom but the continued growth of mobile commerce (MC) is highly correlated with the success of remote MPs (RMPs). Currently MP research has largely ignored the variations between different MP solutions, and exis…

The Contradictory Imperatives of Welfare and Economic Policy in the Mixed Economy
The abstract basis of the polity-economy relation is examined in order to comprehend the current economic limitations upon feasible politics. It is argued that contemporary mixed-economies have a deontological (rights/obligations based) rather than a consequentialist (outcomes-based) legitimation, expressing the conflict between the imperatives of the market-regulated capitalist economy and free will. Yet the state has to be concerned with the ri…

Conceptualising Qualitative Research in Curriculum Studies
Qualitative research is becoming increasingly popular amongst curriculum subject specialists and this is noticeable amongst geographical educators seeking alternative approaches to conducting studies concerned with complex human phenomena. It has not been ascertained just what conception geographical educators have of qualitative research. In this paper we seek to address the questions: What is the experience of qualitative research possessed by …
The Necessity of Welfare
Welfare expenditure is under attack, so that a grasp of the determinants of welfare policy is timely. Neither functionalist nor instrumentalist theory, whether of a Marxist or mainstream kind, has been successful here. This paper offers a systematic presentation of the bourgeois state and of its interdependence with the economy, of which welfare policy is a key aspect. Controversially, the systemic necessity of welfare policy grounds a right to e…
After the Rectifying Revolution
The events of 1989–92 and the flood of advice from bourgeois economists is critically examined in the light of the Hegelian-Marxist theory of the mixed economy. The (sometimes catastrophic) failures of transition are laid at the door of the neglect of civil society
