  • Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies
    Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies BY BABETTE M. LEVY Preface NE of the pleasant by-products of doing research O work is the realization of how generously help has been given when it was needed. The author owes much to many people who proved their interest in this attempt to see America's past a little more clearly. The Institute of Early American History and Culture gave two grants that enabled me to devote a sabbatical leave and a summer to direct searching of colony and church records. Librarians and archivists have been cooperative beyond the call of regular duty. Not a few scholars have read the study in whole or part to give me the benefit of their knowledge and judgment. I must mention among them Professor Josephine W, Bennett of the Hunter College English Department; Miss Madge McLain, formerly of the Hunter College Classics Department; the late Dr. William W. Rockwell, Librarian Emeritus of Union Theological Seminary, whose vast scholarship and his willingness to share it will remain with all who knew him as long as they have memories; Professor Matthew Spinka of the Hartford Theological Sem- inary; and my mother, who did not allow illness to keep her from listening attentively and critically as I read to her chapter after chapter. All students who are interested 7O AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY in problems concerning the early churches along the Atlantic seaboard and the occupants of their pulpits are indebted to the labors of Dr. Frederick Lewis Weis and his invaluable compendiums on the clergymen and parishes of the various colonies.

  • 1. Barbados Considers That a Generally Open Trade Policy Is Vital to Over
    Barbados WT/TPR/S/203 Page 11 II. TRADE POLICY REGIME: FRAMEWORK AND OBJECTIVES (1) OVERVIEW 1. Barbados considers that a generally open trade policy is vital to overcome the adverse effects of the small size of its economy, its restricted capacity to diversify risk, and limited institutional capacity. Barbados is an original Member of the WTO, within which it has advocated binding and enhancing special and differential treatment for developing countries and for the recognition of the special status and needs of small, vulnerable, developing economies. Barbados made commitments in the extended GATS negotiations on telecommunications, and has ratified the Fourth Protocol, but did not participate in the extended negotiations on financial services. It has never been involved in multilateral dispute settlement procedures, either as a defendant or complainant. Barbados has been the Caribbean representative in the WTO Aid for Trade Task Force. 2. Barbados formulates and implements its trade policy within the context of its participation in the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM). CARICOM is in the process of consolidating a single market and economy. Through its CARICOM membership, Barbados maintains preferential trade agreements with Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Venezuela. Barbados's exports have also benefited from preferential market access under non- reciprocal preferential trade arrangements offered by a number of developed countries. 3. Barbados' investment regime is generally open to foreign investors; CARICOM citizens and companies are guaranteed the same treatment as domestic investors. Barbados maintains in force eight bilateral investment treaties offering national treatment to foreign investors. However, investment in activities such as certain ground transport and food retail services is reserved for locally domiciled enterprises, as are tour operators services.

He spoke about the high num- ber of foodborne illnesses in a specific year due to clusters around the island.
