Sachs, whose work in Latin America is underwritten by the United Nations, responds that "if one person can be attacked from so many directions, there hasn't been enough contact between sides" in the debt crisis. "Much of my work," he notes, "is just sitting quietly in a back room analyzing data with members of the government." Sachs did that on a 1986 trip to Bolivia, when he arrived to find that the Planning Minister had resigned and the government was ready to drop its anti-inflation program.

"We already detect a growth of German assertiveness," warns a leading Polish economist. Says Bromke: "The Warsaw Pact is perhaps the best guarantee of Poland's territorial integrity...
...performers take the stage, the audience crackles with excitement. Before long, the fans are clapping their hands, singing along and shouting for their favorite songs. One of those old '60s rock groups now on tour? Not quite. The crowd is old enough to be Stones fans, but these tunes are not about getting satisfaction or spending the night together. Instead the two guitarists are singing of spotted owls and acid rain...
