Countries participate in the world market in different ways. Perhaps I'm being thick and misreading "participate in world market" as a euphemism for the neoliberal globalization project.

It just seems like the participation of some countries....say Eastern Europe...means sudden immiseration and a drop in life expectancy. I dunno.

How do you figure that? Japan, Western Europe, Canada, China, S Korea are all part of the world market. Are they deprived?
