Purpose Much like their residential counterparts, commercial leases have a reputation problem. Although often derided as painfully dull and mundane documents, residential leases have begun to be interrogated by socio-legal scholarship with renewed interest. This paper aims to continue this line of work in the commercial context through a detailed examination of a widespread form of leasehold in the pub sector: the “tied lease”. Design/methodology/approach The paper draws on interviews with 14 publicans and archival research. Findings The author argues that the lease is a decisive actor in determining the balance of power between publicans and pub-owning companies and shaping the physical environment of pubs in the UK. Originality/value The author’s broader agenda is to argue that socio-legal scholars’ renewed interest in leases should not be confined to the residential context: commercial leases warrant far greater socio-legal scholarly attention.

“…This fifth theme pertains to revelry and "fun," covering more sensual and/or light-hearted forms of pleasure. Or, to deploy a term approaching the status of a loanword, the words here relate to the Gaelic noun craic, which captures a general sense of revelry and "good times" (Grantham, 2009). Incidentally, that I felt compelled to put "fun" in quotation marks above is indicative of the fact that, despite being a culturally valued experience, the topic has not attracted much academic attention (Reis, O'Keefe, & Lane, 2016).…”

The spectrum of positive affect: A cross-cultural lexical analysis

Although wellbeing tends to be associated with positive affect, the phenomenological terrain in this regard is often poorly differentiated. In the interest of bringing further granularity to this area, an enquiry was conducted into relevant concepts found across the world's cultures, focusing specifically on so-called untranslatable words. Through a quasi-systematic search of academic and grey literature, together with conceptual snowballing, 134 relevant terms have been located so far (with the process of enquiry ongoing). Through a process of grounded theory analysis, seven main themes were identified: peace/calm; contentment/satisfaction; cosiness/homeliness; savouring/appreciation; revelry/fun; joy/euphoria; and bliss nirvāṇa. The analysis highlights the need for a more expansive and granular conceptualisation of positive affect, one that recognises the depth and breadth of the subjective terrain that it covers.
