My research has been completed in an area still in the preconstruction and decision stages as well as focusing on both sides of the opinions to bridge this gap in knowledge. Uncovering opinions and power Through interviews and analysis of the Safe for Somerset Organization website, the dynamics of the conflict will be investigated in an attempt to encompass the opinions of different actors of the conflict.

As stated before, I made the assumption that the residents of the area view it as rural. During the interviews with different actors, when I referred to the area as rural none of them refuted it, but they did have different views as to what belonged in…

    expressed in various ways over the centuries. The law of lost and found is rooted in ancient Roman laws and the concept of finders keepers derived from the work of the second century jurist Gaius, who suggested that unowned property (res nullius) became “the property of the first taker.” Emperor Justinian of Rome further proposed that property intentionally abandoned by its owner (res derelicta) turned into no one 's property (res nullius) and could thereafter be claimed by any individual who…

    them hope that expansion can not only be possible but it can be successful as well. A page that Prime can take from Walmart’s playbook is learning to pick and choose their countries.
