The wool market was extremely important to the English medieval economy and wool dominated the English export trade from the late thirteenth century to its decline in the late fifteenth century. Wool was at the forefront of the establishment of England as a European political and economic power and this 2007 volume was the first study of the medieval wool market in over 20 years. It investigates in detail the scale and scope of advance contracts for the sale of wool; the majority of these agreements were formed between English monasteries and Italian merchants, and the book focuses on the data contained within them. The pricing structures and market efficiency of the agreements are examined, employing practices from modern finance. A detailed case study of the impact of entering into such agreements on medieval English monasteries is also presented, using the example of Pipewell Abbey in Northamptonshire.

Le premier livre d'une collection qui vous emmène à travers l'Europe et vous aide à choisir un séjour de qualité, avec des critères hors du commun : la rencontre de l'architecture et du design, avec la qualité de l'accueil, de la table, et le souci du bien être. Plus qu'un répertoire de lieux de rêve, c'est une réflexion sur une nouvelle conception de l'hôtellerie : comment l'architecture peut cadrer le paysage, quels détails architecturaux et quels matériaux nous procurent des sensations inoubliables, et un focus sur les gens qui ont pour passion de s'occuper de nous. Nous espérons qu'elle incitera une nouvelle génération d'hôteliers à sortir des stéréotypes de l'hôtellerie de luxe classique. Elciego avec F.O. Gehry, Lucerne avec Jean Nouvel, Amsterdam avec MVRDV, Vigilius avec Matteo Thun, Vals avec Peter Zumthor, Paris avec Christophe Pillet, Barcelone avec Fernando Amat et Jordi Tiò, Hasparren et Francfort : 9 étapes où architecture contemporaine rime avec bien-être, petits soins, plaisirs de la table et décompression.

The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) articulates what has now become a global norm. CEDAW establishes the moral, civic, and political equality of women; women's right to be free from discrimination and violence; and the responsibility of governments to take positive action to achieve these goals. The United States is not among the 187 countries that have ratified the treaty. To explain why the United States has not ratified CEDAW, this book highlights the emergence of the treaty in the context of the Cold War, the deeply partisan nature of women's rights issues in the United States, and basic disagreements about how human rights treaties work.

This volume is the fully revised and updated version of the first comprehensive commentary on the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and its Optional Protocol. It reflects the developments during the decade following the publication of the first edition in 2012, which has also seen a notable rise in individual complaints (more than 85), ten new General Recommendations, and six new inquiry procedures as well as numerousstatements, partly in conjunction with other UN human rights bodies. The Convention is a key international human rights instrument and the only one exclusively addressed to women. It has been described as the United Nations' 'landmark treaty in the struggle for women's rights'. At a time when the backlashagainst women's human rights and the concept of gender-based discrimination is increasingly challenged by governments and powerful societal actors, the Commentary is an important instrument to hold all state powers to account on their international obligations under the Convention.The Commentary analyses the interpretation of the Convention through the work of its monitoring body, the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. It comprises detailed analyses of the Preamble and each article of the Convention and of the Optional Protocol, including a separate chapter on the cross-cutting substantive issue of violence against women. The sources relied on are the treaty language and the general recommendations, concluding observations, and case law underthe Optional Protocol (individual complaints and inquiries), through which the Committee has interpreted and applied the Convention. Each chapter is self-contained, but the Commentary is conceived of as an integral whole. The book also includes an introduction which provides an overview of theConvention and its embedding in the international law of human rights as well as the most recent challenges to women's human rights worldwide.
