and now joining us from our new york studio is author of the "newsweek" cover story, historian amanda foremanoreman, why is your article in "newsweek" entitled the new thatcher era? why is she back in popularity, or back in? tracking the "newsweek" team felt very strongly that the issues that helped to bring thatcher down, ironically, are the very same issues that confronting europe today. so most important of all is the question of european integration. as you know, the euro is sinking as a desperate attempt to keep it afloat among the countries called pigs, portugal, ireland, spain and greece. and the proposal is for a european super state where there will be complete fiscal integration. that is the very topic that margaret thatcher put a stake in the ground on. and she said that greater fiscal and political integration would lead to a sporadic undemocratic, low enterprise, high unemployment entity where individual countries would not be allowed to control their own destiny because they would not be able to set their interest rates. they would not be able to set their own currency exchange.
