Simple Contracts

This paper deals with the language used to express legal speech acts in simple contracts within the field of English Contract Law. The central objects of study are regulative functions, i.e. directive and commissive speech acts with a particular view to establishing realisation patterns of these rhetorical functions. The hypothesis that the speech acts subjecte to analysis are homogeneously distributed linguistic realisations typical for simple contracts is tested by means of partly manual analysis, partly machine-based quantification of the data of investigation. The findings show that statistically significant items are distributed homogenously in the corpus examined, and that the choice of individual strategies can be interpreted in terms of the face redress required by the socio-pragmatic situation.

Characteristics of qualitative and quantitative methods are described, with the discussion that both methods are complementary, not conflicting, to further the field of diabetes research.

Identifying the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the increase of nepotism and cronyism may provide a basis for organizations to assess their extent and to take possible measures to prevent their negative effects. At the same time, the research presented in the article may provide a basis for further research work related to nepotism and cronyism at the times of other threats, different from the pandemic. The aim of the article is to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on growing acceptance for nepotism and cronyism in Polish enterprises. Qualitative and quantitative methods have been included in the conducted research.

Kinship care as a formal placement option has been steadily increasing over recent years, particularly in New South Wales. This paper draws on a report of research on kinship care in New South Wales, in which the two authors participated (Mason et al, 2002). In conducting the research, qualitative and quantitative methods were used to explore both ‘top down’ perspectives (from policy documents and statistics) and ‘bottom up’ perspectives (from child protection practitioners and those who experience policy as service recipients – kinship carers, young people in kinship care and parents of children in kinship care).In this paper we briefly outline the research and discuss findings relating to definitions of kinship care, the extent of kinship care in NSW, decision making around the placement of children in kinship care, reasons given by participants for kinship care, and support for carers.
