Execution of conveyancing documentation by companies has given rise to considerable anxiety to vendors, purchasers and their solicitors. Only gradually have the courts construed and applied the straightforward Section 20(1) and the enigmatic Section 23 of the Conveyancing and Property Ordinance, leaving in their wake a host of defective titles. Now the Hong Kong Legislature has come to our aid by enacting a new Section 23A. The purpose of this article is to examine the meaning of this section and to explore the extent of its curative effect. ; published_or_final_version

Under conservative influence, Washington for years has downgraded the role of the United Nations & undermined multilateral cooperation on pressing global issues. Nonetheless, the UN remains a powerful symbol of hope & with U.S. reengagement would be a much more effective vehicle for addressing global problems than it is now. The next President should again make the UN a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy, recommitting the United States to UN Charter values & collaboration within the UN framework. To restore U.S. credibility & enable effective diplomacy, Congressional backing will be essential, including ratification of long-stalled treaties endorsed by traditional U.S. allies. Adapted from the source document.

The implications of the historical conflict between Turkey & Greece & the US's foreign policies toward both nations for future Turkish-American relations are considered. An overview of US foreign policy toward Turkey & Greece reveals the US's interest in improving relations with both nations & notes the constraints that hinder relations-building processes. Two principal points of contention between Turkey & Greece are identified: (1) each nation's claim over the island of Cyprus & the tensions that have developed from these competing claims; & (2) questions concerning airspace rights over the Aegean Sea. Although military conflicts between Turkey & Greece have been minimal during the late 20th century, each country nonetheless perceives the other as a national security threat. Moreover, several historical & present-day developments that could escalate the conflict are identified. After detailing the failure of previous Turkish-Greek negotiations, it is claimed that the mutual compassion & goodwill following both nations' experience of devastating earthquakes in 1999 & the EU's consideration of Turkey as a candidate for membership have reduced interstate hostilities. It is concluded that the US & the EU should collaborate to resolve the Turkish-Greek conflict concerning Cyprus to enhance relations with both Turkey & Greece. J. W. Parker

In the first two decades of the twenty-first century, the events of 9/11, 7/7, the War on Terror and the Caliphate and atrocities of the so-called Islamic State have dominated Western consciousness and wreaked havoc in parts of the Muslim-majority world. In their wake, a spate of books has been written explaining the phenomenon of Islamist radicalisation and Jihadism. Nevertheless, for normal citizens, as well as scholars of religion and legal professionals, the crucial question remains unanswered: how is mainstream Islam different from both Islamism and the Islamist Extremism that is used to justify terrorist violence? In this highly original book, which draws upon the author's experience as an expert witness in Islamic theology in 27 counter-terrorism trials, the author uses the idea of the Worldview, as well as traditional Islamic theology, to answer this question. The book explains not only what Mainstream Islam, Ideological Islamism and Islamist Extremism are in their broad philosophical characteristics and theological particulars, but also explains comprehensively how and why they are both superficially related and yet essentially and fundamentally different. In so doing, the book also illuminates the cast of characters and the development of their ideas that constitute Mainstream Islam, Ideological Islamism and the Non-Violent and Violent Islamist Extremists who constitute the Genealogy of Terror.
