...Interwoven with the population explosion is unemployment. No one knows for sure how many of the rural poor are unemployed, but estimates range as high as 30%. An even greater waste, if the country is to make technological progress, is the fact that 60,000 of the country's 300,000 engineers are out of work. The educated young who are unable to find jobs and have lost all faith in parliamentary government have proved easy targets for parties like West Bengal's Maoist Naxalites...
More important than financing, however, is the fact that Brandt's government does not want the German company making deals alone with the Soviets. By organizing a West European consortium, Bonn wants to emphasize to the Soviets that its own economy is completely interwoven with that of the European Economic Community and thus discourage possible Soviet notions about luring West Germany into a neutralist position with economic deals.

I refer to the exasperation and bemusement of the white American with the black, the black American's ceaseless (and swiftly accelerating) struggle to escape the misconceptions of whites, and the continual confusing of the black American...
These images are interwoven in the manner of melodic lines, recalling Levy's ambition for cinema as music, with the same images (though invariably differently shot, and of different duration) recurring in a variety of contexts, elaborating, explicating, and redefining Max's condition, a condition in which each character, dreamt of or recorded, shares...
