Vested Interest - Components of Vested Interest

Components of Vested Interest

Vested interest is determined by, and must include, all five of these sub-components: stake, salience, certainty, immediacy, and self-efficacy. It can also be argued that distance (both mentally and physically) could potentially be another component of this theory. Oppositional behavior or NIMBY "Not In My Back Yard" (Thornton and Knox, 2002) will be used as an example of how all components are utilized. A new prison was built in Thompson, Illinois, and sparked various actions in and around the community.

    Of all the anti-social vested interests the worst is the vested interest in ill-health.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Hence, a generative grammar must be a system of rules that can iterate to generate an indefinitely large number of structures. This system of rules can be analyzed into the three major components of a generative grammar: the syntactic, phonological, and semantic components.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    Of course, in the reality of history, the Machiavellian view which glorifies the principle of violence has been able to dominate. Not the compromising conciliatory politics of humaneness, not the Erasmian, but rather the politics of vested power which firmly exploits every opportunity, politics in the sense of the “Principe,” has determined the development of European history ever since.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Cities force growth and make men talkative and entertaining, but they make them artificial. What possesses interest for us is the natural of each, his constitutional excellence. This is forever a surprise, engaging and lovely; we cannot be satiated with knowing it, and about it; and it is this which the conversation with Nature cherishes and guards.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
