Peace Amongst The Foreigners Of Time

Peace Amongst the Foreigners of Time by author Halina B. Slowik, tells of an age of lost hope among men and of hostility and unkindness in the World at large today. Also, how the World is filled with those who act with hate and treachery, showing little regard for their fellow man. The Lord did not envision such a World; peace through prayer is needed to bring forth justice and triumph for all. For the last twenty years, Halina has been journaling with the Lord. He prompted the writing of this book, and several others on the Truth of His Ways, through interior locution, narrating to her and describing His hopes and dreams for a World of peace for mankind. Through her, He communicates: it is time to understand the importance of turning to the Lord in love and prayer to bring forth kindness and peace, to make the World a better place.

Foreign investors often sustain injuries during violent situations, such as riots, revolutions, civil wars, and international armed conflicts. There is a great deal of uncertainty about how effective investment treaty protections are in volatile times, how they relate to other applicable legal frameworks, and how they affect the state security policy and the post-conflict transition to peace. This book explores how foreign investment is protected in times of armed conflict under the investment treaty regime. It does so by combining insights from different areas of international law, including international investment law, international humanitarian law, international human rights law, the law of state responsibility, and the law of treaties. While the protections have evolved over time, with the investment treaty regime providing the strongest legal framework for protecting investors yet, there has been an apparent shift in treaty practice towards safeguarding a state's security interests. Jure Zrilic identifies and analyses the flaws in the existent normative framework, but also highlights the potential that investment treaties have for minimising the devastating effects of armed conflict. The book offers an analytical framework for assessing the investment treaty regime in times of armed conflict, distinguishing between different paradigms and different types of conflicts. Crucially, he argues that a new approach is needed to appropriately balance the competing interests of host states and investors when it comes to investment protection in armed conflicts.

Japan closed its doors to foreigners for over two hundred years because of religious and political instability caused by Christianity. By 1859, foreign residents were once again living in treaty ports in Japan, but edicts banning Christianity remained enforced until 1873. Drawing on an impressive array of English and Japanese sources, Ion investigates a crucial era in the history of Japanese-American relations the formation of Protestant missions. He reveals that the transmission of values and beliefs was not a simple matter of acceptance or rejection: missionaries and Christian laymen persisted in the face of open hostility and served as important liaisons between East and West.
