, Introduction


My aim in compiling this portfolio was to reflect on the things that have struck me throughout
this crazy module.


My starting point for doing this was to revisit my opinions to the multiple choice questions
which were presented in the Crossroads assignment. I present these current opinions, together
with my original opinions, and some brief notes in the section entitled: “Back at the
Crossroads!”


Once I have done this, I draw some key conclusions about this crazy module and about the
things that did indeed strike me.

Twitter.

c. Capitalism is absolutely the only viable economic system, so yes, this is true and right.

d. I had never thought of this, but as unreasonable as this might sound, it is actually so true.

e. I think that we need to work on our imagination then because this is clearly absurd.

Choice now: D

Choice in assignment 1: E

the truth in Fisher's observation despite its initial incredulity. This viewpoint acknowledges the
entrenched nature of capitalism but also recognizes the necessity of imagining and striving for
