Gostaria de recomendar a todos, absolutamente a todos todos, o site do grande intelectual britânico (nascido na Mandchúria, no entre guerras, em 1939), Robert Skidelsky: www.skidelskyr.com

Professor Lord Skidelsky is Professor of Political Economy at the University of Warwick, author of The World After Communism (1995) and a biography of the economist John Maynard Keynes, which received 5 prizes, including the Lionel Gelber Prize for International Relations and the Council of Foreign Relations Prize for International Relations. He was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1994.
The single-volume abridgment of his three-volume biography of John Maynard Keynes was recently published in the US.

Robert Skidelsky elevated to the House of Lords in 1991 and served as Chief Opposition Spokesman on Treasury Affairs (1998-1999). From 1991 to 2001 he was Chairman of the Social Market Foundation. Since 2002 he has been Chairman of the Centre for Global Studies (London).

Lord Skidelsky is a non-executive director of Janus Capital Inc, Chairman of the Greater Europe Fund and a Director of Transnational Insights Ltd. A Russian speaker, he is Director of the Moscow School of Political Studies and Founder and Executive Secretary of The UK/Russia Round Table. He is also a Trustee of the Manhattan Institute and Chairman of the Governors of the Brighton College.
