Joseph E. Stiglitz, Project Syndicate: 'Just a few years ago, a powerful ideology - the belief in free and unfettered markets - brought the world to the brink of ruin... I was among those who hoped that, somehow, the financial crisis would teach Americans (and others) a lesson about the need for greater equality, stronger regulation, and a better balance between the market and government. Alas, that has not been the case. On the contrary, a resurgence of right-wing economics, driven, as always, by ideology and special interests, once again threatens the global economy.'
