the point of this paper is relatively straightforward and unsurprising but its a good one. in countries all around the world, people place strongest values on their families and communities and spend relatively little time thinking about ideology and at national level crave efficient economic management as their main aspiration. the paper below is in response to the current iran-us situation. global focusing efforts on these common values would be timely.

There is testament to this result from the political startegies pursued in the UK in recent years. Ideology has been replaced by New Labouur's emphasis on performace management, and Cameron's Conservatives are currently focusing on re0-building Britain's sense of community.
