...factor, though, regarding China's seemingly silent role on the world stage: rather than seeing it as beneath them, China's leaders have avoided interfering in other countries' affairs for the simple reason that they don't want anyone having reason to interfere with their own. An empowered interventionist movement at a global level would no doubt focus on Xin?jiang, Tibet and other topics that Beijing sees as entirely domestic - and it doesn't want to give additional credence to U.S.-led efforts in this space. Rather than looking down on a historical pecking order of nations, China...

...should be coming. Interpreting EU treaties in such a way that allows rich member-countries to bail out poorer ones is a step toward integrated eurozone fiscal policy as it necessitates the coercion of the poorer countries’ fiscal policymakers.

...money selling for high to buy at very low. or profiting from a fall in stock prices, insider trading, and mark-to-market accounting, or pricing assets at a higher value than they are actually worth—now unfairly criticize the president and his administration for being an interventionist one. Those on Main Street should realize this and rise up and defend this government which is only looking out for the people’s interests, a rarity these days...

Brazil prefers to keep that work behind the scenes, and its foreign policy is decidedly non-interventionist. "We don't feel a temptation to export our political and economic model," Lula foreign policy adviser Marco Aurélio Garcia told TIME last year. "We don't believe everyone should be like us." But at the same time, Lula is on a crusade to make Brazil, with the world's fifth largest population and ninth largest economy, a serious international player.
