  • Why Ghana Should Implement Certain International Legal Instruments Relating to International Sale of Goods Transactions
    WHY GHANA SHOULD IMPLEMENT CERTAIN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL INSTRUMENTS RELATING TO INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS TRANSACTIONS by Emmanuel Laryea* Abstract This article argues that Ghana should implement certain international legal instruments (ILIs) relating to international sale of goods transactions. It submits that the recommended instruments, if implemented, would harmonise Ghana’s laws with important aspects of laws that govern international sale of goods transactions; improve Ghana’s legal environment for such transactions; afford entities located in Ghana better facilitation and protection in their trade with foreign counterparts; and improve how Ghana is perceived by the international trading community. The ILIs recommended are the CISG, Rotterdam Rules, and amendments to the Ghanaian Electronic Transactions Act to align with the UNCITRAL Model on Electronic Commerce and Convention on the Use of Electronic Commerce in International Contracts. The recommended actions hold advantages for Ghana, have no material disadvantages, and are easy and inexpensive to implement. I. INTRODUCTION This article argues that Ghana should implement1 certain international legal instruments (ILIs) relating to international sale of goods transactions. The article submits that the recommended instruments, if adopted, would harmonise Ghana’s laws with aspects of laws that govern international sale of goods globally, and improve Ghana’s legal environment for international sale transactions. It would also afford entities located in Ghana better facilitation and protection in their trade with foreign counterparts, enhance their competitiveness in international sale transactions, and improve how Ghana is perceived by the international trading community.2 The recommended actions hold advantages, have no material disadvantages, and are easy and inexpensive to implement.

KWAME NKRUMAH, HIS AFRO-AMERICAN NETWORK AND THE PURSUIT OF AN AFRICAN PERSONALITY EMMANUELLA AMOH 105 Pages This thesis explores the pursuit of a new African personality in post-colonial Ghana by President Nkrumah and his African American network. I argue that Nkrumah’s engagement with African Americans in the pursuit of an African Personality transformed diaspora relations with Africa. It also seeks to explore Black women in this transnational history. Women are not perceived to be as mobile as men in transnationalism thereby underscoring their inputs in the construction of certain historical events. But through examining the lived experiences of Shirley Graham Du Bois and to an extent Maya Angelou and Pauli Murray in Ghana, the African American woman’s role in the building of Nkrumah’s Ghana will be explored in this thesis.

  • Modern Day Slavery
    Modern Day Slavery In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation declaring that all persons held as slaves are and henceforth shall be free. More than 150 years have passed since President Lincoln delivered these immortal words, yet slavery is still a reality for millions of women around the world. While slavery may have a different face than in the past, the practice happens to people in every country, across races, and at all ages. Modern slavery is so prevalent there is a good chance that you have been in contact with a modern day slave and not even realized it. As contemporary slavery has evolved into its modern form, the terminology has evolved along with it. There are several types of slavery that are most common today including bonded labor, forced labor, child labor, sex trafficking, domestic servitude, and forced marriage. When one thinks of modern day slavery, generally forced labor comes to mind. Forced labor is prevalent in many parts of the world. Often people are taken to other countries with the promise of a job only to be forced to work for no pay, frequent- ly in dangerous conditions. Captors take identifying papers from their captives making escape nearly impossible. Formerly known as indentured servitude, bonded labor or peonage is debt based labor where a person will take a loan or incur a debt, often to pay for immigration to a new country. The captor continually tacks on additional debt for life necessities such as food and shelter. This ensures the debt will never be repaid in the victim’s lifetime, forcing those in slavery to pass their debts onto their children and families.

  • General Robert E. Lee (1807-70) and Philanthropist George Peabody (1795-1869) at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, July 23-Aug
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 444 917 SO 031 912 AUTHOR Parker, Franklin; Parker, Betty J. TITLE General Robert E. Lee (1807-70) and Philanthropist George Peabody (1795-1869) at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, July 23-Aug. 30, 1869. PUB DATE 2000-00-00 NOTE 33p. PUB TYPE Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Civil War (United States); *Donors; *Meetings; *Private Financial Support; *Public History; Recognition (Achievement); *Reconstruction Era IDENTIFIERS Biodata; Lee (Robert E); *Peabody (George) ABSTRACT This paper discusses the chance meeting at White Sulphur Springs (West Virginia) of two important public figures, Robert E. Lee and George Peabody, whose rare encounter marked a symbolic turn from Civil War bitterness toward reconciliation and the lifting power of education. The paper presents an overview of Lee's life and professional and military career followed by an overview of Peabody's life and career as a banker, an educational philanthropist, and one who endowed seven Peabody Institute libraries. Both men were in ill health when they visited the Greenbrier Hotel in the summer of 1869, but Peabody had not long to live and spent his time confined to a cottage where he received many visitors. Peabody received a resolution of praise from southern dignitaries which read, in part: "On behalf of the southern people we tender thanks to Mr. Peabody for his aid to the cause of education...and hail him benefactor." A photograph survives that shows Lee, Peabody, and William Wilson Corcoran sitting together at the Greenbrier. Reporting that Lee's own illness kept him from attending Peabody's funeral, the paper describes the impressive and prolonged international services in 1870.

  • Revealing the Child Faces of Modern Slavery
    Revealing the Child Faces of Modern Slavery Expert Panel on the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery 2 December 2016, 11 a.m., Salle XXIII, Palais des Nations Background The United Nations Voluntary Trust Fund on Contemporary Forms of Slavery will host an Expert Panel Discussion to mark the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery on 2 December 2016, in Geneva. The Panel will focus on the specific needs and the rehabilitation of children victims of modern slavery practices. Today, an estimated 21 million people worldwide are trapped in conditions of contemporary slavery, with over one-quarter of those affected being children.1 Slavery is thus not only a memory of the past, but also a cruel reality of modern times that affects the most vulnerable members of our society and precludes them from a life of freedom and dignity. Children are especially susceptible to becoming victims of modern slavery, including domestic servitude, sexual exploitation, forced child begging, trafficking, early marriage, forced recruitment of child soldiers, and employment in hazardous conditions. Children are entitled to specific rights, and States have the obligation to take steps to eradicate modern slavery and to protect the rights of children. Progress has been made in the care, rehabilitation, and reintegration of child victims of modern slavery. However, millions of children remain in conditions of slavery, and an ever-increasing 1 ILO: ILO global estimate of forced labour: Results and methodology (Geneva, 2012). 1 number of children are being pushed into modern slavery as a result of extreme poverty, deeply anchored discriminatory beliefs and patterns, as well as conflicts.
