Re: Anglo Disease (2) - Martin Wolf's take (4.00 / 3)
I'm too busy to write the lengthy comparison between the hubris of the Victorians of the late 19th/early 20th century and Martin Wolf's vision that comes to mind.

Linda Colley's CAPTIVES, the story of Britain's pursuit of empire and how its soldiers and civilians were held captive by the dream of global supremacy provides a fascinating and clearly unheeded warning.
