Epilogue: Tombstones

A chapter in International Banking Strategic Alliances, 2003, pp 134-135 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The facination current events in the international community have for the average man or woman at first impact is out of all proportion to the contempt with which the same people cast these events from their minds only days or even hours later. The yearning enthusiasm initially bestowed upon things from beyond the home front, with which they are familiar to the point of satiation, which then gives way to indifference as information from abroad is quickly sorted out and erased from their memory. Yet those same people never tire of asserting how heavily their fate — as consumers and producers of goods — hinges on events outside their national borders.
