A Van Zanten-comic for the economist magazine ESB. Theme of the issue is ‘Export, international trade and foreign investments in the Netherlands’, but I couldn’t avoid the corona crisis… My translation: 1) Research shows that over the decades, the dutch economy has become more and more dependent on foreign countries. 2) Back in the day, I would have said: good! Open borders, international cooperation, world peace. Alle Menschen werden Brüder. 3) Today, I think: shouldn’t we have taken care to have a national face mask industry?
Een Van Zanten-strip voor het economische tijdschrift ESB. Het thema was ‘Export, wederuitvoer en buitenlandse investeringen in Nederland’, maar ook dan is de corona-crisis niet te vermijden.
