What to Read on the European Union

March 9, 2010 Today's European Union, with its deep integration spanning a variety of policy arenas long thought to be the sole purview of sovereign nations, is a surprising and anomalous political creature. Neither simply an intergovernmental organization nor a full-fledged nation-state, it has resisted simple categorization -- and has repeatedly defied the predictions of scholars and pundits. Today, the EU sits at a difficult crossroads. Summary: An annotated Foreign Affairs syllabus on the European ... (2122 words)

As a political project whose ideology and practice drove much of twentieth- century history, communism has proven too vast and multifaceted a phenomenon to be explored adequately in a single volume.

What to Read on Religion and Foreign Policy

September 30, 2009 Academic and policy discussions of international issues generally ignore religion or, at most, treat it as part of some other problem to be solved. But despite the conventional expectations of inexorable secularization, according to the World Values Survey, religion remains an influential aspect of public life, not only in the United States but around the world. To be relevant, therefore, U.S. foreign policy must acknowledge the place religion occupies in global politics ... (2657 words)
