News and current affairs

Today, the mood is much grimmer, with references to 1929 and 1931 beginning to abound, even if some governments continue to behave as if the crisis was more classical than exceptional.

For many of his supporters, it was President Ronald Reagan who, with his deliberate escalation of the arms race, pushed the Soviet economy to the brink, thereby fully demonstrating the superiority of liberal societies and free markets.

Similar demands were heard all over Europe, where the anti-Nazi or anti-fascist resistance was often led by leftists, or indeed Communists, and prewar conservatives were frequently tainted by collaboration with fascist regimes.

Social democracy, with its promise of greater equality and opportunities for all, served as an ideological antidote.

But much else collapsed with the Soviet model.

He gave a fascinating talk about his adventures, complete with clips of him floating around, catching bubbles in his mouth, and so on.

Such restrictions on freedom did not meet with much public opposition when they were adopted.

That is all the more reason for democrats to stand tall in defending our values - first and foremost by acting in accordance with them.

Terrorists continue to be outliers with limited appeal at best.

With mutual recognition, the EU and the US would accept each other's standards or conformity-assessment procedures, allowing firms to adhere to the less stringent requirements in each area.

Indeed, our research shows that when mutual-recognition agreements include restrictive rules of origin, intra-regional trade increases - at the expense of trade with other countries - and that developing countries tend to suffer most.

Most economic research suggests that gold prices are very difficult to predict over the short to medium term, with the odds of gains and losses being roughly in balance.

Of course, the fall of the house of Lehman Brothers has nothing to do with the fall of the Berlin Wall.

By contrast, 2009 is likely to pave the way to a new form of bipolarity, but with China substituting for the Soviet Union.

Second, whereas democracy and market capitalism appeared as clear - if more fragile than expected - winners in 1989, it is difficult in 2009, with the spread of the global crisis, to distinguish winners from losers.

But before this new order appears, the world may be faced with spreading disorder, if not outright chaos.

My father was involved with the United States space program, and we had some moon rocks at home, so I thought it was no big deal.

Meanwhile, in about 2005, I was in South Africa with a small group advising former President Thabo Mbeki and his government about its IT policy.

Soon after, I started casually discussing the notion of becoming a backup cosmonaut with the Space Adventures team.
