  • The doctrine of Jeroen Dijsselbloem, the head of the Eurogroup, could mean that bondholders may end up absorbing steep losses if euro zone members are called upon to prop up failing banks.

  • A close reading of Linn's work shows that the true American way of war has been one of adaptation and flexibility, and not a rigid ideological attachment to seeking out the next Napoleonic battle of Austerlitz.3 Regrettably, the American Army's new way of war, otherwise called population-centric counterinsurgency, has become the only operational tool in the Army's repertoire to deal with problems of insurgency and instability throughout the world. General Stanley McChrystal's recently released command guidance to forces in Afghanistan employs all of the dictums of population-centric counterinsurgency and confirms this strategy of tactics.\n In other words, they did not see military operations as ends in themselves but instead as a means to achieve policy objectives.

  • I start by explaining why I pursued (and got) a conscientious objector status during the Vietnam War. It's simple. It's because I was conscientious enough to recognize murderous, wrong-headed, corrosive bullshit when I saw it, and I felt obliged to object to it. I'm not bragging, nor am I ashamed. I'm only telling you this again (particularly to those who have started reading my column since the last time I brought this up) because I want to make it clear that I have never been to war.

With that-along with the obvious fact that we're all healthy white guys whose ages fall within a range of years that would have...

  • Why does Mona Charen ("The end of conservatism," Friday) fear the possible return of the Fairness Doctrine? It would not mean the end of Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, et al.

  • Beginning in the late 1930s, the US Supreme court abandoned its close scrutiny of federal executive branch agencies and adopted a policy of judicial acquiescence to the federal administrative process which remained in force through the late 1960s. Writing in 1968, public law scholar, Martin Shapiro, aggressive that, at least during the last twenty years the federal court system has devoted the vast bulk of its energies to simply giving legal approval to agency decisions. The essay argues that a new public law risk management model is gradually replacing the public law litigation model in terms of defining the relationship between public administration and the judiciary. Instead upon relying upon the courts to resolve disputes between public agencies and those private interests, the publ...
