Managers in Davos criticize globalization

"Turbulence in financial markets has managed to do something that globalization critics have failed to accomplish in years,” writes Alexandra Föderl-Schmid, at the conclusion of the Davos world economic forum. "It is exactly those who stand for globalization and neo-liberalism – managers of funds and banks, and company presidents – who are calling for more controls and permission to intervene. ... The degree of upheaval also becomes evident through the sudden shift of hopes to emerging markets. It is an irony of history: Only continued strong growth in China and India can save the world economy from recession. All at once, sights are set on countries in Latin America and Southeast Asia - which a decade ago depended on support of industrial countries - and on Russia - all countries where the market economy is not free and the state has both access and power to intervene.”

Environmental policy or panic?

Not all political proposals for protecting the climate "really make sense", writes Alexandra Föderl-Schmid, adding that "some are even short-sighted and dangerous". According to Föderl-Schmid, the proposal to "spend your holiday on the balcony" instead of travelling by car or plane to distant destinations is simply "populist". "Without getting hysterical we should implement more realistic plans: a tax on air travel which  would be invested in climate protection measures, exchanging the car-related insurance tax for a consumption-related tax in Austria to take account of the actual quantity of emissions produced. We shouldn't do things for the sake of doing things, but measures that are taken by each individual on a daily basis - when shopping, heating or getting from A to B - are necessary. One thing to be said for the current debate is that at least it's raising awareness."
