I've Come to the End of Me

On December 15th, the Economist's Blog 'Certain Ideas of Europe' ended. I'm not sure where I will now read about Walloon-Flemish bickering and the impending collapse of Belgium - probably just the print edition. Although not as frequently updated as I would like, this was one of my favorites and it's a shame to see it go.

Now in a move that may scare Europeans, I will replace the CIE link on this blog with a link to James Fallows Beijing-based Atlantic blog. I can only emphasize that if Europe had followed the Economist's frequent recommendations to liberalize continental labour markets this may not have happened.
