Comments - Is America Losing Its Edge? For 50 years, the United States has maintained its economic edge by being better and faster than any other country at inventing and exploiting new technologies. Today, however, its dominance is starting to slip, as Asian countries pour resources into R&D and challenge America's traditional role in the global economy.Segal, Adam et al. | 2004

Comments - The Venezuelan Oil Crisis - Last year's crisis in Caracas caught Washington by surprise, causing oil prices to skyrocket and exposing flaws in the U.S. ability to forecast and cope with threats to its oil supply. Both government and industry must do better next time.Billig, Michelle et al. | 2004

Comments - The New Politics of Intelligence - The failure to prevent the September 11 attacks or find Iraqi WMD have put intelligence at the center of this year's presidential campaign. The key to better performance, however, lies not in major reforms but in the character and sense of responsible officials.Betts, Richard K. et al. | 2004

Comments - The Law of War in the War on Terror - The Bush administration has literalized its "war" on terrorism, dissolving the legal boundaries between what a government can do in peacetime and what's allowed in war. This move may have made it easier for Washington to detain or kill suspects, but it has also threatened basic due process rights, thereby endangering us all.Roth, Kenneth et al. | 2004

Comments - The Politics of AIDS - American evangelicals have put the fight against AIDS on Washington's map, even while clashing with other activists over strategy.

Comments - Buying Time in Tehran - Having crushed the recent reform movement, Iran's mullahs are now offering their people a different deal: Limited economic liberalization in exchange for political acquiescence.

Comments - Beyond the Abu Sayyaf - Washington has made the fight against radical Muslim separatists in the Philippines a critical front in its war on terrorism.

Comments - The Decline of America's Soft Power - The Bush administration may dismiss the relevance of soft power, but it does so at great peril.

Essays - The Sources of American Legitimacy - Throughout its history, the United States has made gaining international legitimacy a top priority of its foreign policy. The 18 months since the launch of the Iraq war, however, have left the country's hard-earned respect and credibility in tatters. In going to war without a legal basis or the backing of traditional U.S. allies, the Bush administration brazenly undermined Washington's long-held commitment to international law, its acceptance of consensual decision-making, its reputation for moderation, and its identification with the preservation of peace. The road back will be a long and hard one.Tucker, Robert W. et al. | 2004

Essays - The Neglected Home Front - The Bush administration has waged an aggressive war against terrorists abroad, but it has neglected to protect the homeland, even though Americans in the United States are the ones most vulnerable to future attacks. The government must do more to safeguard critical U.S. infrastructure and mobilize the American public to help. For starters, it should create a semi-independent federal agency tapping into private resources that would develop and enforce security standards.Flynn, Stephen E. et al. | 2004

Essays - A Normal Country - Conventional wisdom in the West says that post-Cold War Russia has been a disastrous failure. The facts say otherwise. Aspects of Russia's performance over the last decade may have been disappointing, but the notion that the country has gone through an economic cataclysm and political relapse is wrong -- More a comment on overblown expectations than on Russia's actual experience. Compared to other countries at a similar level of economic and political development, Russia looks more the norm than the exception.Shleifer, Andrei et al. | 2004

Essays - The Outsourcing Bogeyman - According to the election-year bluster of politicians and pundits, the outsourcing of American jobs to other countries has become a problem of epic proportion. Fortunately, this alarmism is misguided. Outsourcing actually brings far more benefits than costs, both now and in the long run. If its critics succeed in provoking a new wave of American protectionism, the consequences will be disastrous -- For the U.S. economy and for the American workers they claim to defend.Drezner, Daniel W. et al. | 2004

Essays - Putin and the Oligarchs - The jailing of Russian oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky has revealed the fault lines running through the post-Soviet political economy. The reforms and privatization of the 1990s were so flawed and unfair as to make them unstable. A backlash was inevitable. Given Vladimir Putin's authoritarian tendencies, that backslash has proved equally flawed and unfair -- And perhaps equally unstable.Goldman, Marshal I. et al. | 2004

Essays - What Went Wrong in Iraq - Although the early U.S. blunders in the occupation of Iraq are well known, their consequences are just now becoming dear. The Bush administration was never willing to commit the resources necessary to secure the country and did not make the most of the resources it had. U.S. officials did get a number of things right, but they never understood -- Or even listened to -- The country they were seeking to rebuild. As a result, the democratic future of Iraq now hangs in the balance.Diamond, Larry et al. | 2004

Essays - Trouble in Taiwan - George W. Bush was right to rebuke Taiwan's president over his plans for a referendum on relations with China. Administration critics assume that democracy and independence are inseparable, that the "one China" principle is no longer useful, and that China would never go to war over Taiwan. But they are wrong on all three counts and fail to appreciate the dangers that may lie ahead.Swaine, Michael D. et al. | 2004

Essays - The Future of Palestine - The current turmoil in the Gaza Strip represents the most serious challenge to Yasir Arafat's authority in decades. Israel's planned disengagement from Gaza brought to a boil long-simmering tensions among Palestinian factions demanding a change in the status quo. Holding national elections before the pullout may be the only way to avoid chaos and save any chance at Middle East peace.Shikaki, Khalil et al. | 2004

Essays - Foreign Policy for a Democratic President - By stressing unilateralism over cooperation, preemption over prevention, and firepower over staying power, the Bush administration has alienated the United States' natural ales and disengaged from many of the world's most pressing problems. To restore U.S. global standing -- Which is essential in checking the spread of lethal weapons and winning the war on terrorism -- The next Democratic president must recognize the obvious: That means are as important as ends.Berger, Samuel R. et al. | 2004

Essays - How to Build a Fence - Israelis and Palestinians must be separated for the Middle East to achieve some semblance of peace. At this point, that will take a fence. The good news is that Israel is already building a sensible barrier. The bad news is that the Sharon government may construct it in a way that spurs future conflict rather than ends it. The United States thus needs to step in to make sure that the right kind of fence gets built, in the right place -- Or else both sides will face more fighting in the future.Makovsky, David et al. | 2004

Essays - Why Democracies Excel - U.S. and international development agencies, believing that poor countries should develop economically before they become democratic, have not taken politics into account when disbursing aid. This is a mistake: Poor democracies are almost always stronger, calmer, and more caring than poor autocracies, because they allow power to be shared and encourage openness and accountability. They deserve all the help they can get.Siegle, Joseph T. et al. | 2004

Essays - Terrorism Goes to Sea - The number of pirate attacks worldwide has tripled in the past decade, and new evidence suggests that piracy is becoming a key tactic of terrorist groups. In light of al Qaeda's professed aim of targeting weak links in the global economy, this new nexus is a serious threat: Most of the world's oil and gas is shipped through pirate-infested waters.Luft, Gal et al. | 2004

Essays - The Global Baby Bust - Most people think overpopulation is one of the worst dangers facing the globe. In fact, the opposite is true. As countries get richer, their populations age and their birthrates plummet. And this is not just a problem of rich countries: The developing world is also getting older fast. Falling birthrates might seem beneficial, but the economic and social price is too steep to pay. The right policies could help turn the tide, but only if enacted before it's too late.Longman, Phillip et al. | 2004

Essays - America's Crisis of Legitimacy - Europeans accuse the United States of acting like a bully: Aggressive, self-interested, and disrespectful of rules. That charge is hypocritical. Still, it must be taken seriously, for as a liberal democracy with a global vision, the United States needs the approval of other nations that share its ideals. The American project is in Europe's interest, too -- Whether the Europeans understand that or not.Kagan, Robert et al. | 2004

Essays - How to Counter WMD - The Bush administration has done little to contain the spread of weapons of mass destruction, even as undeterrable nonstate actors grow more intent on obtaining and using them. U.S. counterproliferation policy needs an overhaul. Its new goals should be to get nuclear material out of circulation, reinforce nonproliferation agreements, and use new technologies and invasive monitoring to get better and more actionable intelligence.Carter, Ashton B. et al. | 2004

Essays - The Payoff From Women's Rights - Backing women's rights in developing countries isn't just good ethics; it's also sound economics. Growth and living standards get a dramatic boost when women are given just a bit more education, political clout, and economic opportunity. So the United States should aggressively promote women's rights abroad. And by couching its case in economic terms, it might even overcome the resistance of conservative Muslim countries that have long balked at gender equality.Coleman, Isobel et al. | 2004

Essays - Globalization's Missing Middle - Both friends and foes of globalization overlook one of its critical effects: Although it has served rich countries well and poor ones even better, globalization has left middle-income countries struggling to find a niche in world markets.

But these reforms have fueled suspicions among Islamists and hard-line army officers.

Essays - Don't Break the Engagement - This election year may tempt both critics of the Bush administration and hard-liners within it to attack U.S. policy on China. That would be a mistake, however, for engaging Beijing has worked well. Economic growth in China has spurred political liberalization, legal reform, opening of the media, and popular activism. The Bush administration -- And those who aspire to replace it -- Should not let electoral tactics jeopardize sound policy. With respect to China, that means staying the course.Economy, Elizabeth et al. | 2004

Essays - The Rise of the Shadow Warriors - U.S. special forces are enjoying unprecedented fame -- And not just thanks to their exploits in Iraq and Afghanistan. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld wants to use them for secret antiterror missions around the globe. But that could endanger all Americans in uniform and let the Pentagon run covert operations without proper oversight. Congress must ensure that someone guards the guardians.Kibbe, Jennifer D. et al. | 2004

Essays - The Road to Damascus - The Bush administration has shrugged off the Syrian president's recent attempts at rapprochement with the West. It should think again. With Syria's old ally Saddam Hussein gone, Damascus is trapped in a strategic quandary that makes it highly receptive to coercive diplomacy -- Of the kind that worked on Libya. And by engaging Syria sooner rather than later, the United States could give the Middle East peace process a shove in the right direction.Simon, Steven et al. | 2004

The proposed EU constitution makes dear that the new Europe seeks to balance rather than complement U.S. power -- Making European political integration the greatest challenge to U.S. influence in Europe since World War II. Washington must begin to adapt accordingly.Cimbalo, Jeffrey L. et al. | 2004

Reviews & Responses - Illusions of Empire - From Washington to Baghdad, the debate over American empire is back. Five new books weigh in, some celebrating the imperial project as the last best hope of humankind, others attacking it as cause for worry. What they all fail to understand is that U.S. power is neither as great as most claim nor as dangerous as others fear.Ikenberry, G.John et al. | 2004

Essays - The True Worth of Air Power - Precision air weapons have revolutionized modern warfare, but not by making it easier to kill enemy leaders. Decapitation alone still doesn't work: wars are still won by pummeling troops in the field. The new weaponry makes it easier to hammer the enemy's forces from the air -- But only when they are kept in place by ground forces.Pape, Robert A. et al. | 2004
