This chapter focuses on legal instruments that take a broad view of water regulation. There are, as yet, no framework statutory instruments at the state or Union level but drafts have been prepared and this chapter reproduces the latest draft National Water Framework Bill. The next section then moves on to water policies that have been adopted at the Union and state level for some years, highlighting here the National Water Policy, 2012. The last section focuses on an upcoming area of water law, inter-sectoral allocation of water, an issue that is not yet well covered in legal instruments. This section highlights some state-level instruments that seek to address the issue.

The beauty of edited volumes is their potential to achieve synergism in bringing together diverse work on a significant topic – not just to create a coherent collection of research. Literacy in African American communities succeeds on all fronts. In presenting a broad view of literacy-related practices, the volume evokes a variable African American community that is invisible (or at least hazy) in many schools. Without deep knowledge of the linguistic, cultural, historical, and political contexts for literacy in the community, the schools and university programs that prepare professionals cannot hope to overcome the deficit perspective of cultural and linguistic differences that still drives assessment and instruction to a large degree.

AbstractAnnulment under the ICSID Convention offers a limited remedy on the basis of a few carefully circumscribed grounds. Recently, losing parties have attacked awards for a wide array of reasons. Some ad hoc committees deciding these requests for annulment have taken a broad view of their powers. They have given some grounds for annulment an extremely wide interpretation thereby blurring the line between annulment and appeal. For instance, a perceived mistake in the interpretation of a rule of law has been regarded as an excess of powers for failure to apply the proper law. One ad hoc committee went beyond the reasons for annulment put forward by the applicant. It actively searched for additional grounds and eventually annulled the award for a reason not relied upon by the applicant. Some ad hoc committees have gone beyond the task given to them by the ICSID Convention, offering general criticism and advice to tribunals. The risk that an ICSID award will be annulled is now higher than that a non-ICSID award will be set aside by a competent domestic court.
