I took the liberty of creating an alternative cover for the report, with my co-author as a hussar of the Lithuanian-Polish Commonwealth and yrs truly as an Estonian peasant from Halliste Parish in South Estonia, standing on the cliffs on the Gulf of Estonia/ (or Finland). @kaikaarelson.bsky.social

“Overcapacity is a feature not a bug in the Chinese model of techno-industrial upgrade through relentless manufacturing scaling
“To mitigate US tariffs, China needs Europe to absorb more Chinese goods while Europe wants China to export less and import more.. Their aims are diametrically opposed”

Kiesinger, Brandt, Schmidt, Kohl, Schröder, Merkel, Scholz waren Ministerpräsidenten oder Minister, bevor sie Bundeskanzler wurden. Parteisoldaten. Merz ist Quereinsteiger, Politik-Unternehmer. Eine Chance in einer Zeit der Disruption, in der es um Umbau und Neubegründung geht.
