Alive and Well in Pakistan
By: Casey, Ethan
Published by: Vision Paperbacks
How wide is the gulf in understanding between the West and the Muslim world? How real is the risk of nuclear war on the subcontinent? What will be the long term effects of the Afghan Wars? How widespread - and how justified - is resentment towards the US and the West?

China
By: OECD Publishing
Published by: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)
China has become one of the world's leading destinations for foreign direct investment (FDI). However, while cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have become the dominant form of global FDI flows, they remain a relatively small part of FDI flows into China. Cross-border M&A can play an important part in the restructuring of state-owned industries, especially in China's old industrial heartland in the North East. The Chinese government has enacted legislation to open the economy to cross-border M&A but the regulatory framework could be more open and transparent. In reviewing developments since 2003, the Investment Policy review of China 2006 evaluates the progress made in developing an effective institutional framework for cross-border M&A in China, takes stock of remaining obstacles, and offers policy options to address them. This review is part of the OECD's ongoing co-operation with non-member economies around the world.
