The New Statesman is a left wing British periodical.
Recently I have noticed a series of articles praising the superiority of other nations in certain areas. This month Sweden is praised for its party conferences. Last month Germany's economy was lauded. I find this curious. Is it common to look to others for examples of superior systems? Surely there are many factors in complex systems. Is it naive to point to another nation's successes and hope to emulate them? Is it even desirable to emulate them? Do any right wing publications do the same?
