Remonda
B. Kleinberg. The politics of international trade regulation in the
developing world : law and policy of preferential treatment in
the governance of world trade. Carolina Academic Press, c2011. K3943.K575
2011 This
book shows that as a relatively greater number of developing countries accede
to the WTO and adopt rigorous obligations and commitments, the majority
continue to depend heavily on special and differential treatment and
unilateral preference programs. As it stands presently, the
relative marginalization of developing countries from the multilateral trade
mechanism and the international legal instrument undermines, at least in the
short term, the groundwork for a more integrated international system that
addresses sustainable economic growth and development. |

Adam
Winkler. Gunfight : the battle over the right to bear arms in America.
W.W. Norton & Co., c2011. KF3941.W56
2011 This book provides an examination of America's
four-centuries-long political battle over gun control and the right to bear
arms. The author uses
the landmark 2008 case District of Columbia v. Heller, which
invalidated a law banning handguns in the nation's capital, as a springboard
for a groundbreaking historical narrative. Whether examining the Black
Panthers' role in provoking the modern gun rights movement or Ronald Reagan's
efforts to curtail gun ownership, the book weaves together the dramatic
stories of gun rights advocates and gun control lobbyists, providing insights
into the venomous debate that now cleaves our nation. |
