It will discuss some of the more traditional legal theories of corporate law and argue that these theories are inadequate in evaluating the effects that corporations have on people because they do not question the political and economic context they exist in. These theories treat capitalism as a given and, the...

Grounded theory was originally expounded by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in their 1967 book The Discovery of Grounded Theory (Glaser and Strauss 1967). Reacting against what they saw as the dominance of hypothetico-deductive, theory-testing approaches, Glaser and Strauss proposed grounded theory as a way of building theory systematically using data obtained from social research. Since its f...

A theoretical framework for grounding language is introduced that provides a computational path from sensing and motor action to words and speech acts. The approach combines concepts from semiotics and schema theory to develop a holistic approach to linguistic meaning. Schemas serve as structured beliefs that are grounded in an agent’s physical environment through a causal-predictive cycle. Spe...

the main purpose of this research is to describe emergent approach of grounded theory methodology and then compare it with systematic approach. to do so, after describing emergent approach, it compare it with systematic one surrounding 5 axis: coding processes; sampling processes; paradigms; literature review and rigor considerations. the findings show that emergent approach in comparison with ...

I show that constructivist data, if it exists at all, is a very very small part of the data that grounded theory uses.

Secondly, in so doing, it integrates naturalistic ex...
