This further weakened foreign investors' confidence in the Mexican economy, turning the whole ordeal into a crisis.

... strategies will carry it into the next century as one of the worlds most successful casino complexes.

... development of China's oil reserves. When estimates of the oil reserves were reported to be dropping, commitments to import plants and expand heavy industry could not be sustained.

145: Is Racism Still A Problem In The 21st Century?
... their success was criticised and blamed for various issues. A good example of this type of behaviour is demonstrated in Hitler's rise to power. The German people wanted someone to blame for the economic crisis. Hitler singled out the Jewish people as being the cause because of their alleged skills with money and that there was a global Jewish conspiracy to control the world economy. He claimed that they has ... 2001 where, in fact committed by white people. Many people in Britain today claim that there are far more non-whites than there actually are.

... been noted for their possession of state of the art firearms and their military expertise. However, this terrorist group was trained and supplied by the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States during the Russian crisis. The Afghani's were willing to fight and the United States did not mind using this valuable resource to their advantage. After the end of the crisis, the CIA did not retrieve their weaponry and the trained soldiers were left with very new technology at their disposal. Moreover, in the lack of a major opposing force, the United States exercises its power ... United States continuously asserts its policies instead of revising and reviewing them.

147: Confusion in the Japanese Economy: Four Problem Areas
... is now a financial giant. Is it strange that Japanese banks have to pay higher interest rates when they borrow money? At the international conferences I have attended over the past few months, whenever the Asian crisis is discussed, four countries--Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, and Japan--are mentioned as the main problem countries. China's new and powerful prime minister, Zhu Rongji, has come to be thought of as the leader of ... s fault, but the weakness of the Japanese economy, Japanese banks and the yen were major causes of the troubles in Asia. Japan, however, forgets this and talks only of the adverse impact of the Asian problems on Japan. In short, Japan is seen as a victim.

... conquered their vast homeland. The Chinese Communists signed an alliance with Stalin, but the United States refused to recognize the new regime. In Japan, then under U.S. control, economic development was accelerated to counter Asian communism.

150: A Case Study In Diversity Indi
... sites from virtually any point in the world. To some extent, this is the case -- but it can be very difficult. As a large part of our assignment was the comparison of the SAWNET (South Asian Women's NETwork) website, with another site which we found to be equally diverse, I chose to focus on the Indian aspect of SAWNET, as it seemed to be the most represented of all the South Asian countries. For comparison, I chose Romania, a country that I knew nothing about, as it is represented in Virtual Romania (http://www.info.polymtl.ca/zuse/ tavi/www/rom_eng.html). Each of the websites ... very serious site, in contrast to the fun and info-packed Virtual Romania.
