But when you can play with others’ money and expect a very high reward for success and no punishment for failure, the incentives for irresponsible risk-taking become enormous.</div></div></div></div><br><div style="margin-bottom: 40px;">Tags: <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/economy/" rel="tag">economy</a></div>http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/vives2Thu, 01 May 2008 21:23:05 GMThttp://clipmarks.com/clipmark/B3B4CA4C-AFE0-431C-BE31-A76BF79292BE/<b>clipped by:</b> <a href="http://clipmarks.com/clipper/pascual/">pascual</a><br><b>clipper's remarks:</b> yaleglobal <br><div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"><div style="background-color:"><div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"><span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;">Clip Source: <a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://yaleglobal.yale.edu/display.article?id=10711" title="http://yaleglobal.yale.edu/display.article?id=10711">yaleglobal.yale.edu</a></span></div><div style="padding: 10px;"><div style="text-align:left;">f course, in many of these countries the ideology of the nation state with its homogenizing and aggrandizing propensities was an import from the West.
