AMERICA did as much as any country to create post-war Europe. In the late 1940s and the 1950s it was midwife to the treaty that became the European Union and to NATO, the military alliance that won the cold war. The United States acted partly out of charity, but chiefly out of self-interest.
NOT even his tactical pants could save him in the end. Beset by at least 13 investigations into his alleged grifting and abuse of power—including his office’s expenditure of almost $3,000 on hardwearing pants and polo shirts—Scott Pruitt resigned as the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency on July 5th.
THE old Afrika Shrine, a music venue in Lagos, the commercial capital of Nigeria, was burned down by soldiers in 1977. Its founder, the late Fela Kuti, a musical megastar, had called them “zombies” in a song. The soldiers beat Kuti badly and threw his mother from a first-floor window.
EARLY on the morning of July 6th reporters began to assemble their tripods outside Avenfield House, a posh apartment block on London’s Park Lane. The air of wealthy anonymity that hangs around the red-stone building belies its notoriety; in Pakistan, there are few addresses more famous.
LAKSHMI, the goddess of wealth and fortune, is the closest thing Hinduism has to an economic deity. How poorly her earthly sisters in present-day India are faring. There, women are less likely to work than they are in any country in the G20, except for Saudi Arabia.
SIR: Decades of trying to keep tabs on North Korea’s bombs and missiles have taught us that the Norks lie and cheat and that they throw hissy fits when we call them out. Kim Jong Un and POTUS got along famously but we must assume that Little Rocket Man is going to try it on again. We need an agreement that stops him doing that.
IT IS the world’s most titanic commercial fight. Facing off are the towering giants of American and Chinese tech, led by the FAANGs (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google’s parent, Alphabet) on one side and the BATs (Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent) on the other.
CITIZEN armies have been replaced in most countries by professional soldiers, who tend to do a better job of defending the nation than conscripted interns. But the draft is making a comeback in some surprising places. Sweden brought back military service this year, after an eight-year hiatus.
WHEN Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement from the Supreme Court on June 27th, Democrats rushed to the barricades. “This is the fight of our lives,” announced Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.
“I WILL not fail you. You will not be disappointed.” Standing before a crowd of perhaps 100,000 people in the Zócalo, Mexico City’s central square, on July 1st, Andrés Manuel López Obrador seemed fully aware of the magnitude of what he had just accomplished.
WHEN the two old friends set off in early June for a day in the country, they had no inkling of what was in store. Abhijit Nath, a 30-year-old businessman, liked cooking, dogs and fancy pet fish.
SO INGRAINED is the dream of the “posto fisso” in Italian culture, that the highest-grossing film of 2016 was a comedy about a man who stops at nothing to keep his permanent job in the country’s public bureaucracy. A series of reforms in recent years has liberalised Italy’s labour market.
This is the introduction to a two-week, ten-part series of essays on transgender identities. Click here for the essays.\n\nFROM the transgender bathroom debate in America to the argument in Britain over who can stand for election on women-only shortlists, a row about transgender identities is generating more heat than light.
THE row is over points of ecclesiastical history and procedure that most people, including ordinary folk who belong to the relevant churches, find utterly obscure. But the geopolitical stakes are enormous.
MANY times in his 30-year Supreme Court career Justice Anthony Kennedy gave the crucial fifth nod to a conservative ruling. But the biggest abortion cases were not among them. In 1992 he was the fifth vote in a ruling that reaffirmed Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court ruling from 1973 that declared abortion a constitutional right.
ON JULY 3RD Jeremy Corbyn told Unite, Britain’s biggest trade union, that “Labour is back as the political voice of the working class”.
HAZMAT suits are back on the streets of Wiltshire. Only two weeks ago the normally sleepy part of England was celebrating its recovery from the events of March, when a former Russian spy and his daughter were poisoned in Salisbury.
ON A chilly evening in an empty theatre in Bogotá an unusual assortment of musicians prepares for a concert. Violinists, cellists and flautists from Colombia’s National Symphony Orchestra join players of maracas and timbales. The rhythms are those of salsa. The song, “Banano de Urabá”, tells of a slaughter of banana pickers in 1928.

WHEN Ted Sarandos joined Netflix in 2000, it was just a DVD-rental firm. In 2011, when Netflix was first moving into streaming video, he bought “House of Cards”, a television drama starring Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright and produced by, among others, the film director David Fincher, for $100m.
IN 1988 a publication launched in London that was not quite a comic, not quite a style magazine, not quite an art periodical and not quite a music paper, but a curious hybrid of all these things. Deadline was neither the first nor the last such bold experiment. It was, however, one of the few to flourish.
SUDAN, the last male northern white rhinoceros on Earth, died in March. He is survived by two females, Najin and her daughter Fatu, who live in a conservancy in Kenya. This pair (pictured) are thus the only remaining members of the world’s most endangered subspecies of mammal. But all might not yet be lost.
NEWS OUTLETS call him “China’s Edward Snowden”. His fans worldwide call him “Brother Fu”—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, Pakistan’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 Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, the exclusive Alpine mountain-biking resort, the picture was familiar. Rotorpods with blacked-out windows dropped off captains of industry, there to discuss the plight of the world, as they have since the 1970s.
THE EMAIL that landed in Eva Smith’s mailbox at 7pm on Friday October 13th 2028 had the ominous subject line “Changes”. Ms Smith, a director at a private-equity firm in New York, opened it with trepidation.
“DATA SLAVERY.” Jennifer Lyn Morone, an American artist, thinks this is the state in which most people now live. To get free online services, she laments, they hand over intimate information to technology firms. “Personal data are much more valuable than you think,” she says.
IT IS A bright morning in the eastern Mediterranean, and a small robotic watercraft operated by Greenpeace, an environmental group, is quietly approaching two fishing boats about 160 miles north of Egypt’s coast.
WAXING AND WANING from invisible new to full-beam full and back, month in and month out, the Moon is famously inconstant. But appearances deceive. Its aspect in the sky may change; the brute fact of there being 73 thousand trillion tonnes of rock orbiting at a distance of some 380,000km does not.
THE WORLD will need to rethink its approach to food as the planet warms and the population grows towards an expected 9.7bn people in 2050.
AUDREY HEPBURN DIED in 1993, but in 2013 she nevertheless starred in an advertisement for Galaxy, a type of chocolate bar. She was shown riding a bus along the Amalfi coast before catching the eye of a passing hunk in a convertible.
WHAT IF, INSTEAD of going to Memphis in April 1968 to lead yet another march, Martin Luther King had returned home, exhausted, to Atlanta? What if he had then avoided all his other would-be assassins and lived to old age well into the 21st century?
