It continues with an overview of claims experience and key issues investors should understand when relying on bilateral investment treaties. The volume then examines challenges facing investors and insurers alike when considering sovereign risk within the context of political risk. The volume concludes with an overview of the PRI industry and its evolution over time how did insurers see the global marketplace evolving over time, what are they predicting now, and how much has it really changed? Old Risks New Solutions provides valuable insights for practitioners and investors alike, particularly in today s turbulent and uncertain markets.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Keefer, Rick, PUBLISHER: PublishAmerica, After traveling and encountering so many individuals for which the anational identitya just doesnat fit, I decided to ask questions and to see what the people are really about. The manufactured ideals and the false sense of unity are failing as the corporate lies create global instabilities. Socially and economically, the lies, manipulations, and rhetoric of 100 years are coming to a possibly dangerous conclusion. Do we as a nation want to continue the atrocities within our borders and around the globe, or do we want to change the way in which we live to do what is best for the global community? I have walked the highways around this beautiful country, helping friends along the way. I look to a new beginning and a new way of thinking about our nation and the policies that have led to the global crisis of today.

Jitterbug Perfume

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robbins, Tom, PUBLISHER: Bantam Books, Jitterbug Perfume is an epic. Which is to say, it begins in the forests of ancient Bohemia and doesn't conclude until nine o'clock tonight (Paris time). It is a saga, as well.

If the liquid in the bottle actually is the secret essence of the universe, as some folks seem to think, it had better be discovered soon because it is leaking and there is only a drop or two left.

There Is a Better Way: A New Economic Agenda

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, John Grieve / Grieve Smith, John, PUBLISHER: Anthem Press, Has the British Labour Party lost its way? In this critical analysis of New Labour's economic and welfare policies, John Grieve Smith suggests that, far from pursuing any new Third Way, Tony Blair's Government is actively consolidating the Thatcherite Revolution. He argues that if Labour is to break the Thatcherite mould and achieve its long-standing objective of a fairer society, it must adopt radically different policies. John Grieve Smith analyzes the policies needed to achieve genuine full employment, and examines the continued whittling away of social security benefits and the need for higher and more progressive taxation if the quality of health and education services is to be improved. The greatest challenge of coming decades for Britain is to develop more effective international institutions in the economic and other fields. Here, John Grieve Smith puts forward a program of major reforms of the global financial system, to make both developing and industrialized countries less vulnerable to unstable financial markets. This lively and controversial book is a timely contribution to the debate over the future of New Labour.

Gardeners of Eden: Rediscovering Our Importance to Nature

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dagget, Dan / Bean, Tom, PUBLISHER: Thatcher Charitable Trust, Dagget's ideas fly in the face of our culture's ancient assumption that humans are separate from nature and of current notions that the best way for us to protect the land is to leave it alone. He demonstrates case after case of positive human engagement in the environment and of managed ecosystems and restored areas that are richer, more diverse, and healthier than unmanaged ones. Much of pre-Columbian America, he contends, was not a pristine wilderness but an ancient garden managed over millennia by native peoples who shaped the plant and animal communities around them to the mutual benefit of all. What Dagget is proposing is a radical change in the way we define land health and the ways this health can be achieved. Rather than leaving the land alone, he recommends a new kind of environmentalism based on management, science, evolution, and holism, and served by humans who enrich the environment even as they benefit from it. In this way, we humans can resume our ancient role as gardeners and stewards of our world, reviving damaged land, facilitating the return of native species, restoring the land's ability to absorb and store water and carbon. Dagget's new environmentalism offers hopeful solutions to the current ecological crisis and a new purpose for our human energies and ideals. This book is essential reading for anyone involved with the earth and anyone seeking a viable way for our burgeoning human population to continue to live upon it.
