In the first half of this decade, the world experienced a period of low short and long-term interest rates. Shortterm rates have risen from these low levels, first in Canada and the United Kingdom, then in the United States and finally in the Euro Area. Long-term rates, by contrast, remained low, suggesting that holders of longterm
debt expected the rise in short-term rates to be only temporary. Only in the past few months has the apparently anomalous pricing of long-term debt started to disappear. But with interest rates on long-term debt similar to short-term market rates internationally, the market does not yet show that the traditional upwardsloping yield curve and, on this basis, long rates remain depressed. They are also markedly below the levels of two to three years ago.

Address before the Royal institute of international affairs, London, Jan. 25, 1955.

A recent study undertaken by the authors (Oxman-Martinez and Martinez 2000) examined the Canadian government's response to the traffic of human beings. Information from twenty-one government and NGO informants and a thorough review of state agency policies and international conventions revealed that trafficking and refugee movements have many links. The question raised by the Metropolis Project—Is clandestine entry to Canada a crime or a new form of migration?—is important, given that trafficking may be the only option available to legitimate refugees waiting to escape dangerous or oppressive situations. Rather than seeking to ease the migration of refugees or addressing the structural causes of trafficking or its social implications, however, Canada's response is focused on the prevention of "irregular movements" (through immigration and border control) and prosecution of the few traffickers successfully apprehended. Preliminary evidence suggests that border control will fail to adequately address the exploitation of women, children, and men—often refugees— within our frontiers. The temporarily defunct Bill C-31 (with its measures to control the borders and restrict immigration) threatens the rights of refugees while doing little to prevent human trafficking, protect its victims, or prosecute those who profit from trafficking. ; Une étude récente faite par les auteurs (Oxman-Martinez et Martinez 2000) s'est penchée sur la réaction du gouvernement canadien au trafic de personnes. Des informations reçues de 21 informateurs se trouvant au gouvernement et dans des ong, ainsi qu'un réexamen en profondeur des politiques suivies par les agences gouvernementales et des conventions internationales ont révélé qu'il existait des liens multiples entre le flot de réfugiés et le trafic de personnes. La question posée par le Projet Metropolis, c.à-d. « L'entrée clandestine au Canada est-elle un crime ou une nouvelle forme de migration ? » est importante, étant donné que le trafic est possiblement l'une des seules options dont ...

The Republic of Indonesia is a country which has a characteristics archipelago. Hence each region boundaries and the rights distribution are regulated and stipulated through the local government laws. Nowadays, the regulatory has been being a multiple implications include the authority, borders and rights problems, challenges and also the obstacles. This phenomenon occurs because the continental paradigmatic model has been being chosen for regional development than its application to the regional regions which should be more ocean government or archipelagic government comprehensively. This research used a literature study method which has collected then analyzed systematically based on documentation and the various official reports which have significantly relevance to the research problem. The results of the study explain that both of the described regions (which has an archipelagic characteristic) shown the restructuring format and regional government laws reformulation. This suitable for catching up to the regional development achievement or performance. The arrangements means for reformulating the new different policy and also the government technical procedures either (Republic of Indonesia's Law Number 23 year of 2014 which concerning to the regional governance).
