Extract from EFL Bliss:
Teachers who like to deal with topical issues in class won't want to skip over the current meltdown. The problem is that so much of what has been happening in the world of finance is so arcane - impossible for us to understand, let alone explain in simple English to our students. However, there are some very important phenomena that can be grasped, described and discussed.continue reading

Thanks a lot for linking to my article and blog, and for giving the blog 5 stars. That was very generous.
As I scrolled down I saw the piece about life-branding. That is interesting in an unpleasant way (ever read "Generation X" and the references to refusing to be a target market?). I will follow that link, read up and then write a little piece on my other blog http://tornhalves.blogspot.com
I am struck by the fact that people do not immediately react against the idea that they might be a brand - that our very identity gets swallowed up by commerce.
Descartes made the proposition "I think therefore I am" the foundation of the Enlightenment. Is this now to be replaced by "I sell therefore I am"? I hope not.
But I do want to say a big thank you.
