英語
TINA (There is no alternative)
英キャメロン首相が最近のスピーチで使ったということだけれど、「TINA？サッチャー元首相
が好んで使っていた？」と全く知らないフレーズだったので調べてみた。
There is no alternative (shortened as TINA) was a slogan which Margaret Thatcher, the conservative British Prime Minister used often. In economics, politics, and political economy, it has come to mean that "there is no alternative" to economic liberalism, that free markets, free trade, and capitalist globalization are the best way for modern societies to develop.
The phrase may be traced to its emphatic use by nineteenth-century classical liberal thinker Herbert Spencer.
