• It's Time for the Left to Get Serious

Right-wing populism is not well understood by the Left. Fascism, for instance, which is often our description of anything we do not like that comes out of the Right, is one variant of right-wing populism, but they are not identical. Right-wing populism is a political force that sometimes sounds like a Left critique, but is anything but such a critique. It is - and this is why it is so dangerous,- a phenomenon that draws from the myth of U.S. history, so elements of it are easily picked up by segments of the population that are susceptible to the draw of the dominant U.S. narrative. There is something else that has been happening that particularly unsettles right-wing populists. While [Obama] is . concerned about changing the image of the U.S. empire, he altered U.S. foreign policy in so...

• High Stakes in the Taiwanese Elections ; Outcome Could Alter China's Relations with Island Nation and U.S.

On Jan. 14, Taiwanese voters will elect the country's next president and parliament. Officials in both Beijing and Washington are closely watching the election campaign, for the outcome could affect both Taiwan-China and U.S.-China relations. President Ma Ying- jeou, the incumbent from a mainland emigre family and Beijing's preferred candidate, came to power in a landslide victory in 2008 on a platform of rapprochement with China and reviving Taiwan's struggling economy. However, most Taiwanese opinion polls show him running behind Tsai Ing-wen, a native of Taiwan and candidate of the island's major opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which leans toward a more independent Taiwan and rejects unification with China. Tension in the Taiwan Strait has subsided - despite Beijing's ...
