A World Without Israel
Would the world be better off if Israel did not exist? Would the economic  
malaise and political repression that turns young men into suicide bombers  
disappear? Would America, suddenly freed from its burdensome ally, find  
itself embraced by the Arab world? Wishful thinking. When it comes to  
problems afflicting the Middle East, Israel is more scapegoat than  
"original sin." By Josef Joffe
A Prescription for Marxism
The next great battle between socialism and capitalism will be waged over  
human health. As medical costs soar, modern societies will wrestle with  
very tough questions. How do you keep prices down without undermining  
innovation and quality care? And who gets to play God—the bureaucrats, the  
doctors, or the forces of the market? By Kenneth Rogoff
