The Peace Clause. Article 13("due restraint") of the Agriculture Agreement protects countries using subsidies which comply with the agreement from being challenged under other WTO [World Trade Organization] agreements. Without this "peace clause, "countries would have greater freedom to take action against each others’ subsidies, under the Subsidies and Countervailing Measures Agreement and related provisions. The peace clause is due to expire at the end of 2003. Some countries want it extended so that they can enjoy some degree of "legal security, "ensuring that they will not be challenged so long as they comply with their commitments on export subsidies and domestic support under the Agriculture Agreement. 2, record 1, English, - peace%20clause

La clause de paix. L'article 13 («modération») de l'Accord sur l'agriculture exempte les pays qui accordent des subventions autorisées dans le cadre de l'Accord des actions fondées sur d'autres Accords de l'OMC [Organisation mondiale du commerce]. Sans cette «clause de paix», les pays auraient une plus grande latitude pour engager des actions contre les subventions des autres au titre des dispositions de l'Accord sur les subventions et les mesures compensatoires, parmi d'autres. La clause de paix devrait devenir caduque à la fin de 2003. Certains pays voudraient la proroger afin de disposer d'une certaine «sécurité juridique», qui leur donnerait l'assurance qu'aucune action ne serait entamée contre eux tant qu'ils respecteraient les engagements concernant les subventions à l'exportation et le soutien interne qu'ils ont pris dans le cadre de l'Accord sur l'agriculture. 2, record 1, French, - clause%20de%20paix

By giving a cognitive enhancer, with minimal side effects, to people without a mental deficit, they may end up with cognitive credit, i. e. smarter. Some elements within the scientific establishment continue to deny the potential of cognitive enhancers. They believe that the optimal brain cannot be improved upon by throwing in, a "chemical spanner". But optimal memory can be improved, for example, by employing "mnemonics", which is as "artificial" as a chemical lift from a pill. Would they also resist cognitive enhancement by other artificial methods such as food-a "chemical spanner" if ever there was one-and education? The United States Congress has declared the 1990s the "Decade of the Brain". Smart drugs will, if regulated, treat a recently officially recognized disease, the Age-Associated Memory Impairment(AAMI)-a noticeable mental decline due to the normal ageing process. A futures analyst, Decision Resources, predicts that smart drugs could benefit 600 million people this decade, including 60 million people with AAMI, 20 million students who want to improve scholastic performance, and 270 million people hoping to improve their efficiency at work(Suppl. The World in 1994). 1, record 2, English, - cognitive%20enhancement
