It's about economic competition with other powers; about the Bush administration framing global capitalism in an image that it wants with its 'new international economic architecture' via the IMF and World Bank.... This will exacerbate the increasing economic polarization of the last 20 years, further impoverish much of the globe and send a message to all: displays of resistance will be met with force."
