André Gunder Frank
“Increasingly economic historians can draw analogies between the development of the present crisis and the period between the two world wars, as well as the crisis of a century ago, which was associated with the so-called great depression of 1873-1895. The latter crisis resulted in the rise of monopoly capitalism and imperialism, but also the end of Pax Britannica, as Britain began its decline from world leadership in the face of challenges from Germany and the United States. The present world crisis seems to be spelling the beginning of the end of Pax Americana and may hold untold other major readjustments in the international division of labor and world power in store for the future.”
André Gunder Frank, Reflections on World Economic Crisis

But the rules are made by the ones in power, these neo-Brahmins, and we must follow them if we want to survive in this global village.”
Anirban Bose, The Death of Mitali Dotto

Federico Rampini
“L'Occidente, e al suo interno l'Italia, saprà sopravvivere anche a questo lungo inverno se attingerà alle qualità del suo modello, non se ammirerà chi lo odia. Il lungo inverno può preludere a una stagione di creatività, in cui troveremo risposte innovative ai nostri problemi energetici ed economici”
Federico Rampini, Il lungo inverno: False apocalissi, vere crisi, ma non ci salverà lo stato
