    662. Special report
    663. THERE is a moment in “The Plot Against America”, Philip Roth’s tale of America succumbing to 1930s-style authoritarianism, when the nine-year-old protagonist experiences a profound revulsion at the foibles on which wickedness thrives.
    664. THESE days Mexicans agree on two things. Their football team’s victory over Germany on June 17th was magnificent. And the elections on July 1st will be the most important in decades. The front-runner for the presidency, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, leads a coalition called “Juntos haremos historia” (“Together we will make history”).
    665. IT IS becoming increasingly likely that the phoney trade war between America and China will develop into the real thing. On June 15th the Trump administration published two lists of Chinese products it plans to hit with tariffs of 25%, worth $50bn in 2018. The first will come into force on July 6th.
    666. ON JUNE 24TH, for the first time in their country’s history, Turks will head to the polls to elect both parliament and president on the same day. The vote, which will take place under a state of emergency now entering its third year, has been billed as the most important in decades.
    667. ONE Saudi cleric thundered that letting women drive would lead to immorality and a lack of virgins. Another declared that women were incapable of taking the wheel because they were half-brained. Still another drew on science, ruling that driving would damage their ovaries. Such tosh is at last being cast aside.
    668. IN TEXAS an infant is separated from his mother by the federal government to deter others from coming. In the Mediterranean a boat with some 630 migrants on board is prevented from docking at an Italian port, and Italy’s deputy prime minister seeks to boost his popularity by threatening to expel Roma people.
    669. LOOK at the headlines, and you would struggle to believe that the global economy is in good health. President Donald Trump continues to fire off volleys in his inchoate trade war, throwing financial markets into turmoil and drawing retaliation.
    670. EARLIER this month a spokesman for Pakistan’s army decided to respond to claims that it was attempting to fix next month’s general election. It would not be the first time.
    671. CHINA’S urbanisation is a marvel. The population of its cities has quintupled over the past 40 years, reaching 813m. By 2030 roughly one in five of the world’s city-dwellers will be Chinese. But this mushrooming is not without its flaws.
    672. ON JULY 5th 1948 Sylvia Beckingham was admitted to Park Hospital in Greater Manchester. The 13-year-old was the inaugural patient of the National Health Service (NHS), the world’s first universal health system free at the point of use.
    673. JUANA, who came to America from Guatemala, used to take the bus to and from cleaning jobs. It wore on her. Walking to the bus stop after a long day at work was exhausting, especially when it rained, as it occasionally does in Los Angeles. Now Juana drives everywhere, even to her local supermarket, a few blocks away.
    674. AN OBSCURE little country wedged between Ghana and Benin, Togo has been ruled for the past 50 years by the Eyadéma family, Africa’s most enduring political dynasty. Nearly 95% of Togolese have spent their entire lives ruled by members of one family.
    675. WHEN Colombia’s news channels declared Iván Duque the winner of the presidential election on June 17th, 45 minutes after polls closed, many Colombians were relieved. “I was terrified of Gustavo Petro,”—Mr Duque’s left-wing rival—said a woman waiting for the winner to give his acceptance speech at a convention centre in Bogotá.
    676. SIERRA LEONE is one of the world’s poorest countries. From 1991 to 2002, it suffered a devastating civil war that claimed 70,000 lives and wrecked the health system. What little remained of it was gutted by an Ebola outbreak in 2014, which killed lots of doctors and nurses.
    677. JUNE 21ST is National Indigenous Peoples Day, an occasion for Canada to celebrate the cultures and achievements of its aboriginal inhabitants. Two of the three groups honoured—First Nation peoples and Inuit—have lived in Canada for thousands of years.
    678. AS A television spectacle, it was irresistible. The star of “The Apprentice” striding commandingly along the red carpet, reaching out his hand, ready to strike the deal of a lifetime.
    679. WHEN Britons voted to leave the European Union two years ago, they had no chance to say what sort of Brexit they wanted. But Theresa May, who became prime minister in the aftermath of the referendum, quickly decided that they wanted the most drastic break possible.
    680. YEAR AFTER YEAR Arwa Alneami’s pictures of women at an amusement park captured the obsessions of Saudi Arabia’s killjoy religious police. On “the ship”, a wild-swinging ride, black-clad women and white-robed men were made to sit at opposite ends.
    681. But Donald Trump’s ill-fated policy of caging children will hurt his party more than him
    682. How scared should the world be of Mexico’s likely next president?
    683. As Donald Trump threatens further tariffs on Chinese imports, the prospect of a deal is receding
    684. Wins for Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his party would complete the transformation into a one-man regime
    685. The crown prince’s boldness could transform the Arab world for the better. Failure would bring more chaos
    686. And why the values usually win
    687. Rising tariffs are the worst of many threats to the world economy
    688. Ordinary Pakistanis are resentful of its unchecked power
    689. The planned city clusters are far larger than any others around the world
    690. Birthday celebrations for the health service belie the NHS’s serious problems
    691. Blame remote working, Uber, cheap car loans and the internet
    692. An interview with Farida Nabourema, an activist and blogger
    693. Iván Duque’s alliances and campaign promises will make reconciliation difficult
    694. Common sense is part of the answer
    695. As the number of Canadians claiming indigenous identity increases, a debate about race intensifies
    696. The summit was a triumph of showbiz over substance—and Mr Trump made big concessions for no return
    697. The logic of the Irish border is forcing Britain towards a close relationship with the EU
    698. Radical reforms in Saudi Arabia are changing the Gulf and the Arab world
