Official Companion to the Library of Congress Exhibition.The campaign for women’s suffrage—considered the largest reform movement in American history—lasted more than seven decades. The struggle was not for the fainthearted. For years, determined women organized, lobbied, paraded, petitioned, lectured, picketed, and faced imprisonment in pursuit of the right to vote. Drawing from the Library’s extensive collections of photographs, personal papers, and the organizational records of such figures as Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mary Church Terrell, Carrie Chapman Catt, the National Woman’s Party, and the National American Woman Suffrage Association, Shall Not Be Denied traces the movement leading to the women’s rights convention at Seneca Falls, the contributions of suffragists who worked to persuade women that they deserved the same rights as men, the divergent political strategies and internal divisions they overcame, the push for a federal women’s suffrage amendment, and the legacy of the movement. A companion to the exhibition staged by the Library of Congress, which opened on June 4, 2019—the 100th anniversary of the US Senate’s passage of the suffrage amendment that would become the 19th amendment—Shall Not Be Denied: Women Fight for the Vote is part of the national commemoration of the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage.Published by Rutgers University Press in association with the Library of Congress.

Of the seventy-nine jurisdictions (not including the United States) that are a party to the Hague Convention No. 28 as of May 4, 2004, the United States recognizes fifty-nine jurisdictions as a party; this series of comparative analyses includes reports on forty-nine of those fifty-nine jurisdictions. It also provides a detailed introduction, a discussion of the implications of relevant European Union regulation, analyses on two additional jurisdictions (Belarus and Georgia) not recognized as a party by the United States, a chart that provides the dates for entry into force for the eighty parties, a detailed bibliography, and the text of the Convention.The remaining ten jurisdictions recognized by the United States as a party that are not addressed in this report were omitted, because the Law Library did not have either the expertise on staff or the collections available to prepare a report, or because the party has done very little or nothing to implement the Hague Convention No. 28. Appendix A identifies those parties to the Hague Convention No. 28 that are not covered by this report. It is also important to note that the enclosed report on Denmark was not updated from our previous report of August 2000 because we no longer have a Nordic law specialist on staff.Finally, most reports contain Uniform Resource Locator (URL) references and citations to websites that are not part of the loc.gov domain. These URLs are provided to cite authority to the source of information that we have relied upon to prepare the report and as a convenience for the reader; however, some of these online references may link to subscription services not generally available to the public or may not be maintained by the originators.

Argentina was among the first countries in the world to use genetically modified (GM) crops in agriculture,1 using GM technologies in the production of soybeans, corn, and cotton. Argentina first started using GM technologies in 1996 with the introduction of soybeans tolerant of the herbicide glyphosate.2 Since then, Argentina has increased its production of GM crops to become the third largest grower of biotech crops in the world, after the United States and Brazil.3 GM technologies applied in agriculture have resulted in economic benefits for Argentina, a commodities exporting country, of about US$72.6 billion through 2011. The introduction of GM technologies in agriculture in Argentina has resulted in the creation of an estimated 1.8 million jobs through 2011.4 Of the US$72.6 billion in economic benefit, $65.4 billion is attributable to herbicide-tolerant soybeans. Regarding the distribution of economic benefits from cultivating such soybeans, 72.4% went to farmers, 21.2% to the national government...
