Why the War in Iran Is Likely to Heat Up Again (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The war against Iran, launched earlier this year by the United States and Israel, has caused a spike in energy prices around the world, and this strain on the global economy was exacerbated by Iran shutting down the Strait of Hormuz in March. Recently, however, the amount of oil passing through the strait every day has climbed back up to ten million barrels, according to some estimates. (Before the war, the figure was at least sixteen million barrels per day.) This increase has led some analysts
Why China Isnât Getting Existential About A.I. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Sunday, Chinaâs Minister of State Security published an article in a state-run magazine that warned about artificial intelligence posing a threat to the rule of the Chinese Communist Party (C.C.P.).

The AfD has been gaining in the polls across Germany, and especially in the former German Democratic Republic, which was ab

Read excerpt
In the summer of 1951, Neal Ascherson, not yet twenty years old, enlisted in the Royal Marines. Following the Second World War, the United Kingdom had introduced a new National Service Act; in the early fifties, this often meant fighting in Korea, or battling an uprising against colonial rule in British Malaya, where Ascherson was deployed.
