This grip caused the central economy of Spain to grow at the expense of the colonies.

Both Coca- Cola, which sold 10 billion cases of soft-drinks in 1992, and Pepsi now find themselves asking, "Where will sales of the next 10 billion cases come from?"

The first interpretation deals with speculation and the subsequent “bandwagoning� in financial markets. The second is a political interpretation dealing with the declining status of a hegemonic anchor of the financial system. The question of whether regulation causes or mitigates financial instability is raised by the third interpretation; while the fourth view deals with the “trigger point� phenomena. To fully comprehend these interpretations we must first understand and differentiate between a “currency� and “contagion .....
