Latin America's new 'pink tide'?
Latin America's new 'pink tide'?
If former Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva reclaims the post in this October's election (as now seems likely), and if Colombia's leftist presidential candidate, Gustavo Petro, wins in May, their victories would build on a wave that began with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's victory in 2018. After AMLO came victories by Argentinian President Albert...

US-China relations need 'planetary realism' to avoid geopolitical and ecological apocalypse
US-China relations need 'planetary realism' to avoid geopolitical and ecological apocalypse
I submit for your consideration an American political figure named Jerry Brown. He turns 84 this week but is somehow still flamboyant and relevant, if sometimes slightly annoying. I have not only grown to admire him but come to feel this lifelong politician is becoming an important world figure on the issue of China.

Dokdo's sovereignty and original title
Dokdo's sovereignty and original title
Again this year, the Japanese government continued to push ahead with an event called “Takeshima Day,” which was declared through Shimane Prefecture in 2005 to commemorate the history of the invasion on Dokdo sovereignty in Korea in 1905.

'What's wrong with the world?'
'What's wrong with the world?'
Sometimes, I catch myself, as I explain to 19 and 20-year-olds what life was like before Al Gore invented the internet. “In my day, if you wanted to read an old newspaper, you had to walk over to the library.” I actually said this.

Nam June Paik, climate change and the moon
Nam June Paik, climate change and the moon
“We choose to go to the moon” said John F. Kennedy in 1961. In 1969, the United States achieved the first successful Apollo 11 moon landing. And not long ago, Tesla founder Elon Musk announced that he was accepting tourists for his private lunar travel project, “Dear Moon.” Throughout human history and up to the present age, we have looked to the moon as a source of inspirati...

How the West enabled war in Ukraine
How the West enabled war in Ukraine
Contrary to what Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed, and what political scientists like John Mearsheimer believe, NATO enlargement did not cause Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

We must fix the nursing shortage
We must fix the nursing shortage

With the decentralized nature of crypto, this form of digital currency has proven to be a powerful tool helping Ukraine fight back against Russia. Since the invasion, donations in cryptocurrencies have reached a total of almost $100 million a...
