 Best of the Moment

Three Big Questions For The Eurozone

Paul Mason | BBC | 30 December 2011

Compelling predictions for 2012. Shape of the crisis in Europe will be determined by how three major issues play out. Mason hazards some answers. Also predicts return of protectionism internationally, rise of conviction politicians Comments

The Ghosts In The Living Room

Adam Curtis | BBC | 22 December 2011

Engaging piece, with video, on history of ghosts on television. Not fictional ghosts but "real" ones, or reports of their appearances. And why the BBC promised not to show its 1992 programme Ghostwatch ever again Comments

Sanctions Against Iran Are Overrated

Ivan Eland | National Interest | 29 December 2011

Excellent piece on uses and limitations of sanctions. An economic means trying to achieve a political end. Even if economic impact is severe they rarely work. They don't avoid war either. Can even lead to it Comments

A History Of Disappointment

Jackson Lears | London Review Of Books | 29 December 2011

"How did Obama develop his paradoxical combination of fierce ambition and persistent timidity?" Hostile assessment of US president says part of the answer may lie in his family background and a "genealogy of disappointment" Comments

Revolutionary Chaos

Sergei Karaganov | Foreign Affairs | 28 December 2011

Harsh, perceptive global view from dean of Russian foreign policy analysts. Western democracy follows communism into oblivion. Authoritarianism emerges as best form of government. History returns to "customary state of chaos" Comments
