Germany Unbound?

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Does the crisis with Greece reveal German economic nationalism? German tabloid newspapers have insulted Greeks with raw language about fraud and laziness. What does this reveal about Germany? Should weaker countries leave the Euro Zone? And the pain of the Celtic Tiger. Stephanie Flanders reports from Ireland as the country copes with the collapse of its rate of growth and its confidence in itself.
