This report discusses the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) comprising nine members, two ex officio members, and other members as appointed by the President representing major departments and agencies within the federal executive branch. While the group generally has operated in relative obscurity, the proposed acquisition of commercial operations at six U.S. ports by Dubai Ports World in 2006 placed the group's operations under intense scrutiny by Members of Congress and the public.

"Professionals and government officials often encounter a variety of legal and public policy questions which have economic, sociological, political and spatial overtones and implications." "This volume brings together lawyers and social scientists to discuss pertinent issues from their relevant expertise, with the aim of providing new insights into the different training, skills and background of law and the social sciences, which would in turn contribute to a more symbiotic relationship between the two disciplines to help policy and decision-makers be fair and efficient in implementing or advising regulatory and developmental programmes." "This volume should be a useful reference to policy-makers, professionals advising the government, lawyers and researchers undertaking inter-disciplinary studies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

This book assesses the labor market consequences of privatization in developing countries (the Republic of Korea, India and Mexico) and transition economies (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Eastern Germany and Hungary) during the first half of the 1990s. Based on over 20 case studies in seven countries, it considers the effect of privatization on productivity and on the level and structure of employment. The evolving patterns of industrial relations in privatized firms and the subsequent changes in wages, remuneration systems and non-wage benefits are also examined.
