<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Amali</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wonder if this "information" deserves to
be disseminated at the CS plenary. In my opinion it is NOT an information
but an advertising of some ultra-liberal economists. And most of us -at
least those committed in action in the field- are fed up with this "unique
thought" ! So please, leave it to the "Chicago boys" and remember their
success story : Argentina ! (among other countries, especially in
Africa).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>By the way, I'd just remind you and all
contemplators of the "unique thought" that the CS "unanimously condemned the
leading role given to the market" in our alternative
Declaration. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Je me demande si cette "information" mérite d'etre
distribuee à la Pleniere de la SC. A mon avis ce n'est PAS de l'information mais
de la publicite de quelques economistes ultra-liberaux. Et la majorite d'entre
nous -du moins ce qui sont engages dans l'action sur le terrain- en ont marre de
cette "pensee unique" ! Laisse la donc aux "Chicago boys" et souviens toi de
leur succes : l'Argentine ! (parmi d'autres pays, en particulier en
Afrique). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Par la meme occasion, je voudrais simplement te
rappeler ainsi qu'a tous les contemplateurs de la "pensee unique" que la SC a
"condamne unanimement le role de guide confere au marche" dans notre
Declaration alternative. </FONT></DIV>
