The law of secured transactions has seen dramatic changes in the last decade. International organizations, particularly the UNCITRAL, have been working towards the creation of international texts aiming at modernization of secured financing laws (e.g. the UN Convention on the Assignment of Receivables, the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions and its Intellectual Property Supplement, the UNCITRAL Guide on the implementation of a Security Rights Registry, and the draft UNCITRAL Model Law on Secured Transactions which is currently being prepared). The overall theme of this collection is international (or cross-border) secured transactions law. This book assembles contributions from some of the most authoritative academic voices on secured financing law. It will be of interest to those involved in secured transactions around the world, including policy makers, practitioners, judges, arbitrators, and academics

"A distinguished scholar here offers a thorough lively account of the Jamaican stage, arguably the most prominent theatre of its kind in the British colonies through 1900. Errol Hill discusses the struggle to maintain viable playhouses, the fortunes of visiting professional troupes, and the emergence of an indigenous theatre. He documents the plays written and produced through the end of the nineteenth century, presenting them against the background of a society emerging in the 1830s from a slave-holding system. He also explores the rituals, festivals, and other forms of entertainment enjoyed by the broad underclass of Jamaicans, most of whom were slaves or slave descendants, and who today number over 90 percent of the island's population." "By examining the record of theatrical production on the one hand, and the variety of indigenous performance on the other, Hill shows how a synthesis of native and foreign elements has occurred. He calls particular attention to the use of the Creole language, new performance patterns, and the integration of music, dance, mime, and masking. In the Epilogue, he extends his discussion to the anglophone Caribbean which has become politically independent of Britain."--Jacket.
