face="Verdana, Helvetica" size=2>In the lead up to the Iraq
war, civilian and military planners assured us that they had prepared for every
contingency, thanks to computerized war gaming that sets up trial runs. But
these games are no better than any central plan that fails to account for human
choice and free will. The renowed scholar and author of >The Transformation of War speaks.

Robert
Nelson
University of Maryland


face="Verdana, Helvetica"> >“Support for Free Trade: The Impact of Religious Ideology”


face="Verdana, Helvetica" size=2>The commitment to free
trade has a religious element: an attempt to save the whole world, not just one
people or nation. Free trade depends on the need for worldwide community
sanctions against violating free trade principles, and some normative commitment
to an ideal in order to overcome the free-rider
problem.

I believe 1913 should be “Passage” of the 17th Amendment (direct election of Senators) rather than “Repeal”.

What an abomination that was. An awful shift of power into DC from the states. Voters didn’t get any greater power, since they don’t have any actual control over the person “they” send.
