The important role of wampum in trade relations, and other social contexts, among indigenous groups and Europeans in the coastal and interior New York state areas is well-documented. The use and meaning of ornaments of shell and wampum among neighboring groups, such as the Munsee and Delaware, however, has not been comprehensively examined. Recent research, which focused on how these two indigenous groups integrated Europan trade goods, also identified notable trends in their use of shell, which became increasingly accessible through trade during the post-contact era. These trends are best understood within the context of indigenous symbolic systems focused on the body.

The Republic of Macedonia proclaimed its independence on September 8, 1991, but its international recognition was blocked by Greece, which considered it to have an exclusive historical right over the name Macedonia that is carrying its northern province and that the use of that name is a sign of territorial claims to Skopje. Macedonia was admitted to the UN in 1993 under the provisional name of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, but most countries, including the United States and Russia, have recognized it under its name, the Republic of Macedonia.In 1995, Macedonia and Greece signed a provisional treaty in New York, which paved the way for the normalization of political and trade relations, leaving the problem with the country's name aside. Macedonia received the status of a candidate for EU membership in 2005, but not a date for start of negotiations, which requires a unanimous decision, which is not possible without the consent of Greece.In this thesis, there is an analysis between these two countries, from the period of signing the interim agreement, which required both parties to adhere to certain conditions, the events after the signing of the agreement until today.

The aim of this paper is to present and critically appraise the norms of international law relating to the enforcement of arbitral awards against States. It canvasses the main international instruments governing the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards (notably the New York Convention). It then elucidates the doctrine of sovereign immunity in customary international law – and an attempt to codify it – as a hurdle to enforcement of such awards in domestic courts. The analysis investigates whether the doctrine acts as a safeguard against jeopardizing peaceful relations between States while promoting international commerce, foreign direct investment and trade relations between State and foreign non-State actors. Diplomatic protection is examined as an alternative to international and national adjudication

Asia’s Cockpit, Afghanistan, is not only a strategic neigbour but also share intellectual, geographical, cultural, and diplomatic relations with Pakistan. Pakistan and Afghanistan’s long but porous border has been a source of trade, people interaction, and economic integration. The landlocked Afghanistan seeks an opportunity for trade through Pakistan under the provision of GATT Article V, UN law of Seas 1981 and New York Convention-1965. This study is conducted to examine Pak-Afghan Transit Trade relations over the years. Study is descriptive in nature based on data extracted from published government sources and research papers. Study found that Pak-Afghan signed two transit trade agreements i.e. Afghan Transit Trade Agreement on March 02, 1965 at Kabul and Afghan-Pak Transit Trade Agreement on October 28, 2010 at Islamabad. Under this agreement Pakistan permitted using of territory for trade transit enter from Karachi Port and Port Qasim and exist through Chaman and Torkham. Study found these agreements are bilaterally beneficial, however the research revealed that volume of Afghan transit trade decreased due to the sporadic events of border closures over the years and resultantly Afghanistan seeks transit trade opportunities through Turkmenistan, Iran, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan as per mutually agreed transit trade agreements with them. Afghan’s transit trade shift through other routes has serious implications for Pakistan socio-political and socio-economic interests. Since, peace and prosperity passes through international trade and economic integration therefore, both countries should adopt realistic approach towards each other’s sensitivities and concerns. Afghanistan must take a serious measures in controlling flow of smuggling and terrorism across Afghan land to Pakistan. The research recommends revisiting of the agreement and realign with the obvious opportunities emerging from the CPEC. Afghan should permit and facilitate Pakistan to trade with Central Asia and beyond using Afghan territory. The research further recommends that both countries to ensure that their bilateral relation are not affected by ties with any other country.
