hence, our efforts vis-a-vis the european level. i come here to your second part about forms beyond italy, at the level including germany. well, i think there is a lot to be done in terms of country by country, responsibility of the various governments, but also in part. the leverage of the european commission. for example, the fact that the european commission has now opened infringement procedures that is putting legal and political stimulus on countries to comply with services directive, liberalizing the services area. and they issued most recently two infringement procedures symbolically enough. one vis-a-vis germany, the other vis-a-vis greece says even in germany there is hope for greater domestic liberalization. and something i normally try to convey to our anglo saxon friends there's not much hope to persuade germany to play the growth game through the frame of mind. i think they are more likely to respond positively if one calls them to fully go in the direction of their invection, social market economy of the 50s and 60s o

my dad is greek, hence, my surname mataxis. my mom is german, hence, my deep love for siegfried & roy. thank you. thank you. now, when you're raised greek -- when you have one greek parent, you're raised greek. forget about the german stuff. greek people believe being greek is the most important thing in the world. i'm 50% greek, and i've always tried to be more than 50% greek, but i've never been able to break the 50% barrier, a little like brother mitch. i thought you might like that. good. i grew up, of course, in the greek orthodox church. i was an altar boy. had a modicum of faith, mostly nominal cultural faith. i thought of myself as a christian, but then i went to yale university, of course, the dream come true of every working class european immigrants. yale is a very secular place, aggressively secular. what little modicum of faith i had was seriously challenged. the idea of god is really ignored or even sneered at by the time i graduated. i was quite sure that it was wrong to be serious about the bible or to take jesu

look at what's going on in athens and who might win the upcoming greek elections is anyone's guess hence the fear coming from the german finance minister and the financial times editorial board this is turning into a really bad situation and here's the most interesting part of this whole mess the implosion of the greek economy the suffering of the greek people under austerity the anger coming from germany and the increasing likelihood of extremism and violence can all be traced back to one place one bank in fact one bank on wall street in fact actually goldman sachs rewinds is two thousand and one the creation of the euro zone greece had some debt problems they wanted to join the euro zone to get all kinds of cool advantages but the debt problems that they had the greece had would have disqualified them from being members of the or as a core of the rules in order to in order to join you had to have annual deficits below three percent of g.d.p. and total debt of less than sixty percent of g.d.p. in two thousand one greece didn't meet either requirement so how do they get into the e.u. wel

it's very difficult for americans to hear it, hence somebody would say, "i didn't know it failed." you know? the first thing we lack is an integration of the various factors that have done the country in. these studies tend to be institution specific as though it existed in a vacuum and could be understood apart from other institutions. the second thing lacking is the relationship to the culture at large, the values and behaviors that americans manifest on a daily basis. as a result, these critiques are finely superficial. they don't get to the root of the problem, and this avoidance enables them to be optimistic, which, in fact, places them in the american mainstream. the authors conclude these studies with practical recommendations as to how the particular institutional dysfunctions they identified can be rectified. they are, as a result, on that path. it's usually a mechanical analysis with a mechanical solution. if the authors would have realized these problems do not exist in the vacuum, but are related to all the other problems and are finely rooted in the nature of american

hence the intervention created a painful choice. either the united nations would make somalia into a colony and spend decades engaging in nation-building or united nations forces would withdraw and somalia revert to its prior anarchy. since america and the united nations were unwilling to govern somalia for 30 years, it followed that the job of feeding the hungry and helping the sick must be left to civilian aid agencies and private charities. conclusion, military intervention without an attainable purpose creates as many problems as it solves. this was further demonstrated in the former yugoslavia where early action to arm the victims of aggression so that they could defend themselves would have been far more effective than the united nations half-hearted multilateral intervention. a neutral peacekeeping operation lightly armed in an area where there was no peace to keep. so maybe to consolidate the gains from aggression. eventually, the united nations peacekeepers became hostages used by the aggressor to determine more effective a
