World on fire
Published in 2003, Yale Law Professor Amy Chua wrote that bringing democracy to Palestine will likely only bring a Hamas government hostile to western interests. Which is what happened. Chua argues that exporting democracy and capitalism to unstable regions may actually increase strife.
In the broadest terms, Chua believes the concentration of wealth in market-dominant America with a minority of the world population generates hatred and envy in world of have-not nations.
She feels this sort of envy is very much the same within individual nations. In individual nations, the concentration of massive wealth is in a few ethnic market-dominant minorities which also creates ethnic hatred and envy.(i.e. Chinese in SE Asia, whites in Latin America and South Africa, Jews in post-communist Russia...etc)
Democracy in the hands of the non-market dominant but more much numerous people of an ethnic majority will create instability as they reach for long denied wealth, resources and privilege.
Readable and I believe an accurate observation.
