The Open Visor

Nine pieces — one body of thought

Nine pieces — beginning with the personal account, through the polemical diagnosis and the economic analysis, to science, the foundation of Nova Democratia and the currency application, ending with two concrete policy recommendations. Education is developed as a trilogy in three parts — diagnosis, cost and choice. With a supplement Behind the Numbers for those who want to look further.
