Dear Chris
I'm enjoying the opportunity to absorb the many
informative summaries, eg about the IMF and WTO (our Mike!) and about rich-poor
issues. Your WS concepts seem to incorporate a dynamic humanism while staying
with the systems concept of historic processes.
Can you pass on the following publication
information to subscribers? Thank you.

Paperback, 101pp, 45 tables, plus questionnaire.
Part of the World Values Survey.
We are currently writing the book of the whole
1998 study, including reference back to the 1985 and 1989 surveys and to the
World Values Survey. The 1999 book preceded the 1999 General Election and
accurately portrays the reasons why the free-market government was ousted
by a Labour coalition with strong interventionist policies, but which was not
able to forestall the first body of Greens in this proportional representation
political system. The rising popularity of the new government is predictable in
the results shown in this book.
