Johnson, Alec R.
Abstract
This Comment envisions a ¿virtuous cycle.¿ Each grouping¿s BIT provisions aim to facilitate the pursuit of the group¿s corresponding goals, facilitating graduation to the next grouping and a new set of BIT provisions and goals. While this Comment focuses on African nations, its ideas and the suggested BIT provisions may be equally applicable to other developing countries.
