		The former is a case study in mindlessly opening an economy to the rapaciousness of global forces; the latter is, in Stretton's perhaps overly benign view, a more cautious and controlled transition from a command to a mixed economy.
		The new economics that Stretton evokes in the book is free of that hoary old doctrine about individualistic humans rationally competing and therefore necessarily co-operating (Or, if they do, they collude) to generate wealth.
		Alan Patience is Professor of Political Science at the VUT.
