SOME 22 years after Imran Khan founded Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to break open the countryâ€™s corrupt dynastic politics, the 65-year-old former cricket star was waiting, as The Economist went to press, for official confirmation that his party had won the most seats in Pakistanâ€™s general election.
PRESIDENT Donald Trump has not been shy about his admiration for tariffs. But on July 25th his love of deals appeared to prevail. Tweeting a picture of Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, kissing his cheek, Mr Trump heralded an advance in trade relations between America and the European Union.
IT WAS supposed to draw the row to an end. Labourâ€™s new code of conduct on anti-Semitism was the â€œgold standardâ€, declared Jon Lansman, a prominent Labour activist who sits on the party board that signed off the new rules this month.
MANY OF THE photos seem older than they are. In black and white, they show Spaniards wrapped in overcoats, the men with sideburns, the women with perms, voting in a referendum on a new constitution on December 6th 1978.
SODANKYLA, a town in Finnish Lapland just north of the Arctic Circle, boasts an average annual temperature a little below freezing. Residents eagerly await the brief spell in July when the region enjoys something akin to summer. This year they may have wished for a bit less of it.
TOBACCO was new to England in the 17th century, but even then, smoking had plenty of critics.
â€œLONELINESS is a crowded room,â€ as Bryan Ferry of the band Roxy Music once warbled, adding that everyone was â€œall together, all aloneâ€. The open-plan office might have been designed to make his point. That is not the rationale for the layout, of course.
FOR the first time since independence in 1980, Zimbabwe goes to the polls on July 30th without Robert Mugabe on the ballot. Instead the old despotâ€™s former sidekick, who took his place after a coup last year, is bidding for legitimacy, together with Zanu-PF, the ruling party.
â€œTHIS is a pivotal moment in the history of Zionism and the state of Israel,â€ said Binyamin Netanyahu, Israelâ€™s prime minister (pictured), in the early hours of July 19th. Israelâ€™s parliament, the Knesset, had just passed a law stating that the right of national self-determination is â€œunique to the Jewish peopleâ€.
â€œSELL in May and go away,â€ say the denizens of Wall Street, and to the usual summer lethargy is added the excuse of a heatwave. But for those working in private equity, there is no let-up.
THERE is no shortage of water on Mars. Astronomers reckon that at least 5m cubic kilometres of ice is locked up beneath the planetâ€™s dusty regolith. Whether any of it is liquid is a trickier question.
THE question of who would replace Sergio Marchionne has been in the air for a year or more, ever since the chief executive of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) announced that he would step down in 2019. But the way the answer came was both shocking and sad.
IN 2013 Cody Wilson, a self-described anarchist, fired the worldâ€™s first 3D-printed handgun. It was a crude, single-shot pistol made almost entirely of plastic. He called it the Liberator (pictured) and posted the printing manual, in the form of software code, online. It was downloaded nearly 100,000 times and reposted elsewhere.
TO WAKE up in an Airbnb apartment can be briefly disorientating. Where are you? The brushed steel, the exposed lightbulbs, the mid-century furnishings. The lively walls and bookshelves (a guide for hosts recommends accentuating â€œpersonality, not personal itemsâ€).
A REMARKABLE summit between the European Union and China in Beijing on July 16th marked a turning-point in Chinese views of the EU. Rules and laws bind the EUâ€™s 500m citizens together, albeit scratchily at times. Chinese leaders are sniffy about polities that espouse rule of law as a founding principle.
TEN years after the incineration of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by American nuclear bombs, Japan embraced â€œatoms for peaceâ€, a policy of civilian nuclear power championed by Dwight Eisenhower, Americaâ€™s president.
SOMETHING strange is happening to Canadaâ€™s religious profile. As in many western countries, the share of Canadian citizens who call themselves Christian is in long-term decline. Those who profess â€œno religionâ€ (which does not necessarily mean an indifference to the spiritual) is rising.
CONVENTIONAL wisdom holds that the surge in migration to Europe since 2015 has set off a backlash in anti-immigrant sentiment. Opinion polls, however, do not support this link. In November 2014 Eurobarometer began asking citizens of EU countries about their feelings towards immigrants.
THE most sinister aspect of Jehovahâ€™s Witnesses, as they are portrayed in â€œApostasyâ€, is the way their apocalyptic and authoritarian beliefs are disguised by the bland aesthetics of a corporate away day. Meetings in their drab white-and-beige â€œKingdom Hallâ€ might as well be marketing conferences in a chain hotel.
WORK can make you sick and shorten your life. That is the argument of a hard-hitting book* by Jeffrey Pfeffer, a professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. In an obvious way, that claim is outdated. Health-and-safety rules help explain why deaths from accidents in American workplaces fell by 65% between 1970 and 2015.
THE scene in the centre of Afrin, a Kurdish city in north-western Syria, hardly inspires confidence in the future. A destroyed statue of a mythical Kurdish hero is a reminder of the plunder of the city after its capture earlier this year by Arab and Turkoman rebels backed by Turkish tanks, from Kurdish rebels.
SQUEEZING the top 1% ought to be the most natural thing in the world for politicians seeking to please the masses. Yet, with few exceptions, todayâ€™s populist insurgents are more concerned with immigration and sovereignty than with the top rate of income tax. This disconnect may be more than an oddity.
STAND-UP comedy had its first golden age 40 years ago. Between 1978 and 1988 more than 300 comedy clubs opened across America; along with big hair, shoulder pads and cocaine, laughs became a cultural commodity.
THERE is a scene in â€œMamma Mia! Here We Go Againâ€ in which Harry (Colin Firth) is snoozing through contract negotiations. They have been going on for 14 hours and, frankly, thereâ€™s somewhere else he would rather be. His interlocutors scold him: this deal could make his unspecified business the biggest in Europe! But Harry cares not.
ACROSS the world, freedom of the press is atrophying. According to scores compiled by Freedom House, a think-tank, the muzzling of journalists and independent news media is at its worst point in 13 years.
ALL should be rosy at Europeâ€™s largest low-cost airline. Ryanairâ€™s passenger numbers are growing and costs per seat-kilometre flown areâ€"just aboutâ€"lower than its competitorsâ€™.
NEARLY half of Americans consider income inequality to be a â€œvery bigâ€ problem. At first glance, a report published this month by the Pew Research Centre seems to contain welcome news on this front.
IN DECEMBER 1989 Guido van Rossum, a Dutch computer scientist, set himself a Christmas project. Irked by shortcomings in other programming languages, he wanted to build his own. His principles were simple. First, it should be easy to read.
AMONG the Republicans cowering before President Donald Trump, the presence of Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan has been especially disheartening. Yet both threatened to regrow spines this week. â€œRussia is an adversary,â€ declared Senator Rubio, in response to the presidentâ€™s fraternising in Helsinki.
NEWS OUTLETS call him â€œChinaâ€™s Edward Snowdenâ€. His fans worldwide call him â€œBrother Fuâ€â€"a tag now seen on T-shirts and in internet memes. Both labels are said to mortify Fu Xuedong, the shy Canadian-educated software engineer whose allegations about Chinese cyber-spying have been the summer surprise of 2024.
AS YOU WALK from classroom to classroom at Tibba Khara school on the outskirts of Lahore, Pakistanâ€™s second-biggest city, the children seem to disappear. Pandemonium prevails in the first classroom, packed with five- and six-year-olds in their first year of school.
IT HAD SEEMED a small thing at the time. A court ruling in Ireland in March 2018 attracted little attention in a period when an uptick in growth meant the European Union was, for once, basking in an unexpected glow of optimism.
AS THE GLOBAL elite gathered this week for the World Economic Forumâ€™s annual meeting in Davos, the exclusive Alpine mountain-biking resort, the picture was familiar.

MahaRERA slaps penalty on 8 Mumbai Builders for violation of rulesMUMBAI: The Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) has slapped penalty of Rs 2 lakh to Rs 10 lakh on 8 builders in Mumbai for advertising real estate project without mentioning the authorityâ€™s website address and advertising a non-registered project. MahaRERA has taken this action on Suo-Motu basis.Of the 8 realty developers, builder Tridhatu Morya has been fined Rs 10 lakh for advertising a non-registered project. Rest of the 7 builders including Sumit Group, The Wadhwa Group, Ipsit project, Jyoti Builders, Parinee Building Properties, Haware Properties and Karrm Infrastructure have been fined Rs 2 lakh for advertising real estate project without mentioning the authorityâ€™s website address.MahaRERA Chairperson Gautam Chatterjee, while levying the penalty, has warned the builders to ensure that such violation is not repeated in future.According to section 11(2) of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, the advertisement or prospectus issued or published by the promoter is expected to mention the website address of the authority wherein all details of the registered project are entered and include the projectâ€™s MahaRERA registration number.Section 3(1) of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 states that no builder is allowed to advertise, market, book, sell or offer for sale, or invite persons to purchase in any manner any plot, apartment or building, as the case may be, in any real estate project or part of it, in any planning area, without registering the project with the authority.
Meet the Amit Shah of China: How a professor-turned-politician powers Xi JinpingNow that a constitutional amendment abolishes presidential term limits, it has become possible for China's president Xi Jinping to rule as long as he lives. China's shift from a collective rule indicates how it prizes Xi who has articulated the ambition of China becoming the world leader by displacing the US. Xi has turned China from an inward nation to a country focused on winning the world. Behind Xi's ideological offensive is brainy professor-turned-politician Wang Huning who has guided two previous Chinese presidents too. The chief architect of Xiâ€™s Chinese dream, which aims at empowering the nation in several ways, Wang has also guided previous two presidents.He drafted former presidents Jiang Zeminâ€™s â€œTheory of the Three Representsâ€ and Hu Jintaoâ€™s â€œscientific theory of developmentâ€.After being termed China's Henry Kissinger (he accompanies Xi on most of his international trips), Wang is now being called the Amit Shah of Chinaâ€"the force behind President Xi. In a newspaper article, Jabin T. Jacob of the Institute of Chinese Studies in Delhi says that Wang is to Xi Jinping what Amit Shah is to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "If Shahâ€™s job is to help Modi do the electoral math and draw up strategies to win elections, it is Wangâ€™s job to help create the narrative that legitimizes Xi Jinping in power in an authoritarian system," Jacob writes.Jacob also draws a parallel between how both the countries are being transformed by their top leaders. "If Modi and Shah have together turned a political party otherwise identified with religious extremism and vested business interests into one that appears to espouse a new work ethic based on new technologies â€" Digital India, smart cities, the expansion of Aadhar -â€" there has been a similar makeover underway in the Communist Party of China (CPC) under Xi and Wang for much longer."A former Fudan University professor, Wang is known to have translated and introduced the concept of 'soft power' to China, the idea that the country can influence and persuade others through its culture, lifestyle and ideas. Soft power is central to Xi's vision of China as a global power.As an academic, Wang had written about "neo-authoritarianism" by which he meant political stability and economic development should get preference to democracy and individual rights. What underlines the importance of ideas for Xi is the fact that Wang is the first party theorist to get into the Politburo Standing Committee. With Wang by his side, Xi would be able to articulate his idea of China's rejuvenation and global predominance more effectively and also have a strong ideological framework for his foreign policy.
Indian IT companies becoming true multinationals: NASSCOMNASSCOM has started conversations with states on digital transformation after partnering with Niti Ayog for defining the national IT strategy, the IT industry body president Debjani Ghosh said today. "At the Central level, we have partnered with Niti Ayog for defining the National IT strategy. The next step for us is to work with states... We have started the conversations," she told reporters here on the sidelines of annual HR Summit organised by NASSCOM. She was responding to a question on whether the National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM) has taken up issues on digital transformation with various states. She said it was focussing on three topics -- what it can do to grow the innovation culture in the country, developing the right skills, working with the governments across the world to open new opportunities for Indian IT industry. Companies cannot leverage what it had done in the past and has to reinvent itself to stay ahead, she said. She also said the number of H1B visas issued between 2014-16 period to Indian IT professionals dipped by 43 per cent as lot of companies were becoming true multinationals. "Compared to the 2014-16 period, the number of visas issued has gone down by 43 per cent. It is because Indian companies are becoming true multinationals and we are localising where we are present. We are hiring local people", she said. Terming the discussion on H1B visa as 'political rhetoric', Ghosh said, "They (the discussion) are not translating into legislative action. So, we (NASSCOM) are watching it very closely. We are not taking anything for granted". "You know (US) President (Donald) Trump has come out with a document on skilling the US workforce. Indian IT companies in the US are one of the biggest investors in growing skills. So, we have to invest. There is a lot of discussion on that. We cannot do much about the political rhetoric (around the world)", she said. On hiring forecast for current financial year, Ghosh who took over as NASSCOM chief in April, said, "our projection is 100,000 new jobs this year. It means 100,000 incremental over last year". Noting that the opportunity in the digital transformation technology was 'huge', she said, the companies have to invest to leverage that opportunity. Internet of Things was one of the most important areas where new jobs were going to be created. Cyber Security would also provide new employment opportunities, she said.

Former finance minister Yashwant Sinha quits BJP, says democracy in dangerFormer Union Minister Yashwant Sinha, who has been at loggerheads with the party leadership in recent years, announced on Saturday that he is quitting BJP. "Today I am taking 'sanyas' from any kind of party politics, today I am ending all ties with the BJP," Sinha while addressing the first meeting of Rashtra Manch, founded by him.Sinha said democratic institutions were being undermined under the NDA regime and vowed to work for the protection of democracy in the country. He said that though he would work to unite non-BJP parties he himself would not join any party."I am not an aspirant for any top post and I am making it clear here that I am not at all interested to seek any post," he added.Sinha made the announcement came at a meeting of Rashtra Manch in Patna in which dissident BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, Congress leader Renuka Choudhary and AAP leaders Sanjay Singh and Ashutosh attended.Yashwant Sinha was external affairs minister under Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee ( 2002-04) and finance minister in the same government from 1998-2002 . His son Jayant Sinha is the minister of State for Civil Aviation in Narendra Modi's cabinet.Eighty-year-old Sinha, who has been languishing in the sidelines since Modi took over as prime minister in 2014, stepped up his attack on the Centre in recent months, launching a political action group called the Rashtra Manch.In 2017, Sinha had created a political storm with a newspaper article claiming that the Indian economy was poised for a hardlanding after demonetisation and GST. Again, earlier this week he had written an open letter to BJP MPs asking them to challenge the leadership before the next elections so that correctives could be taken.
Amazon, Flipkart plan bigger delivery from top campusesNEW DELHI: The ecommerce war between Amazon and Flipkart is spilling over to campuses with both trying to grab the best available young talent on offer, primarily from the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) and National Institutes of Technology (NITs).Theyâ€™ll be putting them to work on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, internet of things (IoT) and machine learning (ML).With Flipkart in the process of being taken over by Walmart, early indicators suggest that it will run Amazon close, and perhaps even edge ahead, at campus recruitment this year.
