  • The potential for a union default to convert nonunion workers into union members

    Open AccessMark Harcourt, Gregor Gall et al.ARTICLEIndustrial Relations Journal2025

    Union density has fallen dramatically in many western European countries over recent decades, with grave implications for unions' strength and legitimacy regarding collective bargaining. Free‐riding remains an ongoing challenge in maintaining union membership levels, as covered nonunion workers generally receive the same collectively bargained terms as union members. To help resolve this problem, we propose a union default that would, as a legal …

  • Terrorism and the Media

    Open AccessKangrui Jiang, Margaret Wilson et al.ARTICLETerrorism and Political Violence2025

    Numerous studies have shown that there is a “symbiotic relationship” between terrorism and the media, and that media-oriented terrorist attacks can help terrorism gain more media coverage, thereby producing the social impact it needs, ultimately achieving its longer term goals. This paper proposes a ten variable measurement scale for media-oriented terrorism. The variables and their theoretical rationale are set out and the reliability and validi…

  • The union default

    Open AccessMark Harcourt, Gregor Gall et al.ARTICLEIndustrial Relations Journal2024

    A union default would empower unions to extend membership and representation to nonunion employers but still allow workers to opt‐out and, thereby, free‐ride. Though most workers would retain membership, free‐riding could still undermine a default. First, propensity to maintain membership is likely to vary, leaving some sectors with too few members for viable, effective representation. Second, public goods research suggests free‐riding increases …

  • The union default

    Open AccessMark Harcourt, Gregor Gall et al.ARTICLEIndustrial Relations Journal2023

    A union default would automatically enrol workers in a union with bargaining coverage over their work. Though there would be a right to opt‐out, it would facilitate recruitment and retention of members, especially in sectors with small employers and high staff turnover. Research indicates it would receive majority support and, where available, induce most workers to membership of unions. This study looks at whether two potential features of a uni…

  • Challenges to critical legal education

    Margaret WilsonARTICLEEducational Philosophy and Theory2018Referências: 1

    The article analyses the impact of the neoliberal policy framework and managerialism on critical legal education in the context of Waikato Law Faculty, University of Waikato, Aotearoa New Zealand. The delivery of critical legal education challenges the ideology and implementation of current tertiary education policy and training because it is designed to deliver critical knowledge and not just vocational information. Waikato Law School was establ…

  • Criminal Poisoning and Product Tampering

    Margaret Wilson, Margaret A Wilson et al.ARTICLEDeviant Behavior2017Referências: 33

    Malicious contamination’ encompasses multiple crimes which have received little previous academic attention, including poisoning and product tampering. While these acts may seem easy to distinguish, there are many areas of overlap, and so before these crimes and those who commit them can be understood clear definitions must be introduced. The presence or absence of 14 behavioural variables is proposed as a way of distinguishing product tamperings…

  • The impact of economic and social human rights in New Zealand case law

    Margaret Wilson, Judy Mcgregor et al.ARTICLEAustralian Journal of Human Rights2015

    Although New Zealand has traditionally relied on ‘progressive realisation’ of economic, social and cultural rights (ESCR) through public policy decision-making, recently there has been a small number of cases relying on international human rights treaties, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), to support the legal argument. This article reviews the implementation of the ICESCR in New Zealand throug…

  • Apparent intended lethality

    Margaret Wilson, Lucy LemanskiARTICLEDynamics of Asymmetric Conflict2013Referências: 4

    This article sets out the concept of Apparent Intended Lethality (AIL) with respect to terrorist bomb attacks and explores its measurement through objective behavioral indices. AIL is assessed for 120 bomb attacks carried out by animal rights and anti-abortion extremists in the United States. A wide range of AIL is observed, ranging from hoax attacks to highly lethal attacks. Multidimensional Scalogram Analysis (MSA) reveals that single-issue ter…

  • Electoral Reform in the United Kingdom

    Margaret WilsonARTICLEThe Round Table2011

    Proposals by the UK Coalition government, which came into power in May 2010, to alter the electoral system for the Westminster Parliament have generated much debate and some controversy. The central plank of the campaigners for reform, viz. the introduction of a form of proportional representation, has been tried in New Zealand for some years now in the form of a mixed member proportional system. This article explains how that system came into be…

  • A Behavioural Analysis of Terrorist Action

    M A Wilson, Margaret Wilson et al.ARTICLEThe British Journal of Criminology2010Referências: 20

    This study examines the range of terrorist action employed by ETA and the underlying psychological dimensions that distinguish between the conduct of their two main forms: assassinations and bombings. Descriptive accounts of incidents occurring between 1980 and 2007 are analysed for content and for the similarities and differences between the incidents represented, using Multidimensional Scalogram Analysis. The results show that incidents vary ac…

  • Understanding the ‘War on Terrorism’

    Open AccessJacqueline M Gray, Margaret Wilson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Peace Research2005Referências: 6

    This study investigates how people interpret the war on terrorism that commenced as a result of the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001. The utilitarian and retributive philosophies of punishment and the international relations approach to deterrence provide a framework for understanding the ways in which the war on terrorism may be construed. The participants were 178 British university students. The literature suggests that messages of deter…

  • The Case for Motor Involvement in Perceiving Conspecifics

    Margaret Wilson, Günther KnoblichARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2005Citada por: 17Referências: 171

    Perceiving other people's behaviors activates imitative motor plans in the perceiver, but there is disagreement as to the function of this activation. In contrast to other recent proposals (e.g., that it subserves overt imitation, identification and understanding of actions, or working memory), here it is argued that imitative motor activation feeds back into the perceptual processing of conspecifics' behaviors, generating top-down expectations a…

  • Norwegian Families

    Margarethe Lorensen, Margaret Wilson et al.ARTICLEHealth Care For Women International2004

    Our purpose in conducting this study was to explore relationships among family dynamics, parent-fetal attachment, and infant temperament in 230 mother-father pairs from the third trimester of pregnancy to when their infant was 7 to 9 months old. Mothers reported increased role conflict during this time, as well as more role conflict than their partners. First-time parents (n = 133) perceived more positive family dynamics than second-time parents …

  • The Effect of Irrelevant Visual Input on Working Memory for Sign Language

    Margaret WilsonARTICLEThe Journal of Deaf Studies and…2003

    We report results showing that working memory for American Sign Language (ASL) is sensitive to irrelevant signed input (and other structured visual input) in a manner similar to the effects of irrelevant auditory input on working memory for speech. Deaf signers were disrupted on serial recall of lists of ASL signs when either pseudosigns or moving shapes were presented during a retention interval. Hearing subjects asked to recall lists of printed…

  • Perceiving imitatible stimuli

    Margaret WilsonARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2001Citada por: 6Referências: 86

    For more than a century, psychologists have been intrigued by the idea that mental representations of perceived human actions are closely connected with mental representations of performing those same actions. In this article, connections between input and output representations are considered in terms of the potential for imitation. A broad range of evidence suggests that, for imitatible stimuli, input and output representations are isomorphic t…

  • Toward a Model of Terrorist Behavior in Hostage-Taking Incidents

    Open AccessMargaret Wilson, Margaret A WilsonARTICLEJournal of Conflict Resolution2000Citada por: 20Referências: 18

    Behavior in terrorist hostage taking is examined using published accounts of 100 incidents of aerial hijack and 60 incidents of barricade siege occurring worldwide over the past three decades. The use of multi-dimensional scalogram analysis demonstrates that behavior in terrorist hostage taking is highly structured. Behavioral similarities between incidents carried out by the same terrorist organization are demonstrated, and the structures underl…
