Fighting Corruption in Public Procurement
Anti-corruption measures have firmly taken centre stage in the development agenda of international organisations as well as in developed and developing countries. One area in which corruption manifests itself is in public procurement and, as a result, States have adopted various measures to prevent and curb corruption in public procurement. One such mechanism for dealing with procurement corruption is to debar or disqualify corrupt suppliers from bidding for or otherwise obtaining government contracts. This book examines the issues and challenges raised by the debarment or disqualification of corrupt suppliers from public contracts. Implementing a disqualification mechanism in public procure...

Williams
When the iron horse was making its way up the Sacramento Valley, W.H. Williams was preparing for the future of a small village then named Central. Land was bought, building began, and by the time the railroad arrived in 1877, the town was well under way and would soon be called Williams. The story of our town is as much about its residents as it is the community, the determination, the hard work, and the resilience that helped make Williams what it is today. Follow the story from the 1850s to 1950s--the years that set the stage for generations to come.

International law has long differentiated between international and non-international armed conflicts, traditionally regulating the former far more comprehensively than the latter. This is particularly stark in the case of detention, where the law of non-international armed conflict contains no rules on who may be detained, what processes must be provided to review their detention, and when they must be released. Given that non-international armed conflicts are now the most common form of conflict, this is especially worrying, and the consequences of this have been seen in the detention practices of states such as the US and UK in Iraq and Afghanistan. This book provides a comprehensive exam...
