Article reports that José Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission, has hailed a controversial essay by the incoming Japanese prime minister Yukio Hatoyama that criticised US-style capitalism, as a sign of 'converging' visions in Brussels and Tokyo. The warm European re-action to Mr Hatoyama's article, which portrayed the European Union as a model for Japanese domestic and regional policies, contrasts sharply with the consternation felt in some Washington circles about the essay's denunciation of 'US-led market fundamentalism' and questioning of the dollar's future role. |
