Ultra-Capitalism Killed Iceland

Ireland? Iceland? Doubts on Doomsday Scenario in Eire
By LANDON THOMAS Jr.
(コメント) アイスランドの破たんは、国際金融市場における次の犠牲者を探しています。たとえば、たった一文字しか違わないアイルランドです。非常に開放された小規模の経済で、銀行ビジネスや不動産投機が拡大し、経常収支の赤字と資本流入が続いていました。
しかし、アイルランドでルービニの役割を担うMorgan KellyのEU最悪シナリオはもっと深刻です。もし東欧でいくつかの国が、アイスランドやアイルランドのようになれば、オーストリアやオランダ、ベルギーでも問題を生じ、南欧ではギリシャ、スペイン、イタリア、ポルトガルが経済危機に向かいます。たとえEU諸国の財政規模を考慮しても、こうした危機の連鎖を救済する能力はありません。
こうした国際金融危機を予言するエコノミストたちを、無責任に危機を扇動している、と批判する声もあります。アイルランドの公的債務はGDPの40%に抑えられており、銀行部門はGDPの200%を超えるが、10倍に達したアイスランドとは違う、と。
しかし、銀行救済が続く中で、アイルランドでも、金融犯罪者を見逃している、という抗議の声が強まっています。

By Stefan Wagstyl
(コメント) ロンドンから見て、ロシアを除く東欧の経済は、売り一色のようです。各国の通貨価値は下落しています。ポーランドやチェコは東欧の中で優れた成果を上げてきたと自認しています。しかし、市場は区別してくれません。
