Download or read book Yearbook on the African Union Volume 3 2022 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third edition of the Yearbook on the African Union (YBAU). The YBAU is first and foremost an academic project that provides an in-depth evaluation and analysis of the institution, its processes, and its engagements. Despite the increased agency in recent years of the African Union in general, and the AU Commission in particular, little is known – outside expert policy or niche academic circles – about the Union’s activities. This is the gap the Yearbook on the African Union wants to systematically address. It seeks to be a reference point for in-depth research, evidence-based policy-making and decision-making. Contributors are Festus Kofi Aubyn, Mandira Bagwandeen, Habibu Yaya Bappah, Bruce Byiers, Annie Barbara Hazviyemurwi Chikwanha, Dawit Yohannes Wondemagegnehu, Linnea Gelot, Cheryl Hendricks, Jens Herpolsheimer, Aïssatou Kanté, Tim Murithi, Edefe Ojomo, Thomas Tieku, Gino Vlavonou, Tim Zajontz.

This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to New China’s long-term development plan, the Chinese military will complete its modernization by 2035. Moreover, a beautiful China will fully blossom as well by 2035, in its various charming and radiant aspects, including its ancient culture with modern Chinese characteristics, its benign positive soft power, its clean and green ecology and environment, its friendly and peaceful global diplomacy, and its win-win and progress-prosper relationships with the world’s nations, through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) to cooperate and co-develop for bilateral and international/regional benefits, and for the common good and the shared future of humanity. By 2049, New China will complete its ambitious, ardent and arduous century-long march of national development, modernization, and rejuvenation/renewal, and strongly establish its own world-class military forces. Following the previous two volumes: (1) China’s Renaissance on its phenomenal rise and transformation over the past 70 years (1949-2019), and (2) China’s Long March of Modernization with its remarkable and unique portfolio of blueprints,masterplans and roadmaps for full development, modernization, and rejuvenation by mid-21st century, this third volume incorporates (1) SOARING DRAGON which further explores China’s present and future developments, and (2) CHINA AT THE CUTTING-EDGE which provides a brief on China’s revolutionary breakthroughs and innovations in both the economic and military fields. And its message: New China is standing tall as a leading global innovator. This timely publication completes the New China development Quartet on the country’s envisioned and planned/scripted 100-year-long (1949-2049) struggles to comprehensively and fully develop, modernize, and rejuvenate/renew itself, and to build up a world-class military with distinctive Chinese characteristics. The contemporary Chinese Dream is China’s Vision 2050: of a boldly-reinvented, fully-restored and gloriously-transformed nationhood by 2050. According to its manifest destiny, New China will regain its historical foremost status among the world’s nations, by the highly auspicious time of the People’s Republic of China (PRC)’s centenary on 1 October 2049. As they say, history will repeat itself. And, it will do so, magnificently, in New China’s restoration to geopolitical preeminence.

Download or read book The Political Economy of Investment Arbitration written by ZOE. WILLIAMS and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-08 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Political Economy of Investment Arbitration asks how political institutions and actors in the host state of an investment contribute to the emergence of investor-state disputes. Combining insights from international relations and political economy, it considers two opposing explanations for investor-state disputes: shifting state preferences toward FDI, or the lack of state capacity to maintain an investment-friendly environment. This book's overarching conclusion is that democratic institutions in host states contribute to the emergence of investor-state disputes. Phillips Williams argues that at the heart of many investor-state disputes are highly politicized distributional conflicts involving a range of domestic interest groups. Indeed, it is often pressure from these groups, whether through voting, protests or lobbying, which motivates states to take the policy decisions that are subsequently subject to investors' legal challenges. Thus, this monograph demonstrates that in the face of the potentially high costs posed by investment arbitration, governments continue to take measures which may harm investors in order to pursue specific policy goals. More importantly, these disputes are not only the result of corruption or weak rule of law, but of measures which are taken at the behest of broader interest groups and relate to clear public policy concerns. This has important implications of our normative assessment of the regime and is highly relevant to current debates in both international law and international political economy about the relationship between investment treaties and domestic politics.
Download or read book National Security Review of Foreign Investment written by Cheng Bian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, China, the US, and the EU and its Member States have either promulgated new national laws and regulations or drastically revised existing ones to exert more rigorous government control over inward foreign direct investment (FDI). Such government control pertains to the establishment of an ex-ante review regime of FDI in the host state in sectors that are considered as ‘sensitive’ or ‘strategic’, with an aim to mitigate the security-related implications. This book conducts a systematic and up-to-date comparative study of the national security review regimes of China, the US, and the EU, using Germany as an exampling Member State. It answers a central research question of how domestic law should be formulated to adequately protect national security of the host state whilst posing minimum negative impacts to the free flow of cross-border investment. In addition to analyzing the latest development of the national security review regimes in aforementioned jurisdictions and identifying their commonalities and disparities, this book establishes a normative framework regarding the design of a national security review regime in general and proposes specific legislative recommendations to further clarify the law. This book will be of interest to scholars in the field of international and comparative investment law, investors who seek better compliance programs in the host state, and policymakers who aim for high-quality regulation on foreign investment.
