However, ignoring the anti-Euro bias, his insider sources have provided him with some intriguing information about IMF Shock Therapy tactics in the former Soviet bloc, and a secret and entirely unsustainable ECB stealth bail-out for the likes of Spanish, Italian & Irish debt.
Ho, ho, ho. Evans-Bitchard is following the Establishment right-wing and Conservative Party script of trashing Europe (so Britland can continue to be groped and pawed by the US) to pressure Brown not to go down the Euro path, which if Sterling continues and the dollar crumbles as a reserve currency may become an even more attractive and viable solution for the woes of our Leader.
That's my take on his piece anyway.
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.
