Rankings on the ease of doing business do not tell the whole story about an economy's business environment. Lhe indicator does not account for all factors important for doing business- for example, macroeconomic conditions, infrastructure, workforce skills or security. But improvement in an economy's ranking does indicate that its government is creating a regulatory environment more conducive to operating a business. In Eastern Europe and Central Asia many economies continue to do so- and economies in the region once again dominate the list of top Doing Business reformers in 2007/08. New this year: reforms in the region are moving eastward as 4 newcomers join the top 10 list of reformers: Azerbaijan, Albania, the Kyrgyz Republic and Belarus (table 1.1).

The dissemination of birth control was only one of a host of interventions into the intimate and everyday practices of ordinary Egyptians that aimed at creating reformed and modernized families and productive citizens. [...] the adoption of a population program based on contraception entailed the recognition of Egyptian women as reproductive subjects for whom using birth control was to constitute part of the duties of citizenship even as it simultaneously delineated the normative parameters within which reproductive choice could be exercised.

The parade of media commentators, expert analysts and government officials who routinely spin our Middle East policies - with Israel in the role of (entitled) victim - is a sad commentary on the current (pay to play) state of American politics and journalism. Such preferential treatment for the tribes if Israel, in contrast to how we've dealt with other Middle East tribes, also compromises America's security and its (diminishing) reputation in a nation that practices what it preaches. I agree with freshman Sen. Rand Paul: It's time to end foreign aid to the wealthy state of Israel. Not only can we no longer afford it - more than $3 billion a year, but Israel, unlike the (formerly stabilizing) nation of Egypt, has done little to earn our increasingly hard-earned crash. (Far from fosterin...

Theodore Roosevelt is well known as an imperialist. The common understanding is both too weak and too strong. Too weak, because Roosevelt idealized an imperialism that could last forever in civilizing savages. Too strong, because Roosevelt prepared the American-occupied Philippines for independence within a generation. This article analyzes Roosevelt's philosophy of self-government and reinterprets his Philippines policy in light of the philosophy. Roosevelt emerges as a reluctant anti-imperialist-an imperialist by desire but an anti-imperialist in governance. His imperialist ambitions were thwarted by America's ideals of self-government and its democratic political system, channeled through the powers of Congress and the process of regular elections. At a crest of imperial opportunity,...

In recent years foreign direct investment in developing nations has come under threat by government policies seeking to expropriate or nationalize the assets of foreign corporations. A variety of political and economic motivations have given rise to expropriation activities. This paper examines both the political, economic and legal basis underpinning these expropriation activities and outlines a corporate risk management strategy designed to confront these emerging political/economic threats.
