The Economic Crisis-Capitalist Fools by Joseph Stiglitz in Vanity Fair
#2
Thanks for this Myra. Stiglitz is always a thoughtful read.

Laying the blame at the barmy deregulation of the Eighties is right. The Thatchler phrase "the markets will regulate themselves" was utter tosh and simply a bandits charter.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
