Kompass – Zeitung für Piraten

Euro, Griechen, Bankenrettung & Co.

Etwas für den Sonntagmorgen: Faszinierende, sehr ausführliche Reportage über Deuschlands Rolle in der Euro-Krise. Michael Lewis schreibt im US-Magazin Vanity-Fair:

With Greece and Ireland in economic shreds, while Portugal, Spain, and perhaps even Italy head south, only one nation can save Europe from financial Armageddon: a highly reluctant Germany. The ironies—like the fact that bankers from Düsseldorf were the ultimate patsies in Wall Street’s con game—pile up quickly as Michael Lewis investigates German attitudes toward money, excrement, and the country’s Nazi past, all of which help explain its peculiar new status.
