In the view of the financial crisis that brought forth a reaction of risk aversion among investors towards the emerging countries‚ it is question- nable if foreign direct investments under the impact of the exchange rate dynamic are still playing a positive role in the catching up process. We develop an econo- metric approach

Why do some adoptions go wrong? Adopting a child from a foreign country is usually a positive experience‚ for both the child and the parents. “Over the last 20 years‚ foreign adoption has become more popular‚ and Americans now adopt about 20‚000 children from Guatemala‚ China‚ Russia and other nations each year” (Wingert).

Could WW2 have been prevented? WW2 was a tragedy that killed 60 million people‚ it brought international distrust‚ repressed feelings and resented economic hardship‚ however‚ could it have been prevented? The Treaty of Versailles‚ which formally ended the war‚ did little to address unresolved issues and promoted international indignation while harsh economic conditions devasted millions of people.
