Over at New Atlanticist, I’ve written several foreign policy-related posts.
Fighting Poverty with Profit looks at a persuasive editorial calling for a radical new approach to development aid.
Poland Slashes Early Retirement Benefits notes the irony that Poland, a country which lived under Communism for decades and freed itself thanks, in large part, to an incredibly powerful labor union, is among the first in Europe to take such significant measures to draw down the social welfare system.
Russia: We’ll Trade Missiles for Defense Shield marvels that U.S. plans to build a missile defense shield, ridiculed as unworkable by U.S. scientists and defense experts since Ronald Reagan floated his Strategic Defense Initiative (dubbed “Star Wars” by critics) have continually caused great consternation in Russia.
