English-Dutch translations for every man for himself

ieder voor zichPrimair gaat het daar nog steeds om "ieder voor zich". Basically, the 'every man for himself' mentality still prevails. Dit is geen goede optie, want regulering op nationaal niveau is op dit moment hetzelfde als "ieder voor zich". It is unsound, because, currently, national regulation means every man for himself. Met betrekking tot immigratie, bijvoorbeeld, is het "ieder voor zich”-beginsel niet langer het gangbare. With regard to immigration, for example, the 'every man for himself' principle was no longer in fashion.
