It doesn't take any great stretch of the imagination to see what could happen if one of these central bank managers decides to dump dollars.

I'm gonna dump 10 billion'. So he dumps his dollars and suddenly the market thinks, 'My god, this is it' Of course, the first guy out is OK, but you sure as hell can't afford to be the last guy out.

For example in Chile, the Philippines and Korea it required pressure on leaders on top to open up their systems and those pressures couldn't have come only from civil society. In Ukraine and Georgia on the other hand there was obviously a big push from below -- pressure in both directions is necessary. There is not one single strategy that produces democratic transition.
