Aid (John H. Cochrane)
The Economist has a fantastic article on aid. (The Economist doesn’t have bylines. Henry Curr tweeted the article (x’d it?) and credits Cerian Jones.) At half the dinners I go to, someone says, well, yes, a lot of the USAID money was mis-spent, but what about the poor starving children in Africa? If you are in that situation, this is the …
The Strategic and Military Pathways to a Peaceful Ukrainian Settlement (Jakub Grygiel)
All wars must end, and the Russo-Ukrainian war is not an exception to the rule. In fact, there is growing interest, most visibly in the United States, to see an end to this conflict, which started in 2014 with Russia’s annexation of Crimea and parts of Eastern Ukraine, and then escalated further in 2022 with …

The Key to Ukraine’s Survival: How a United Europe Can Help Kyiv Keep Up the Fight (Celeste A. Wallander)
The United States’ sudden, although ultimately temporary, suspension of all security assistance to Ukraine in early March raised alarms about Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. A lasting suspension of the aid would certainly have changed the course of the war. But even a complete stop to U.S. assistance would not have reversed the progress that …
Would Americans Go to War Against China? How a Divided Public Thinks About Conflict (Alexandra Chinchilla, Paul Poast, and Dan Reiter)
When it comes to military force, U.S. President Donald Trump has taken a starkly split stance. On the one hand, Trump is a self-professed skeptic of foreign entanglements. He has rapidly warmed relations with Russia in hopes of ending the war in Ukraine. His “America first” foreign policy is generally critical of military engagement abroad. …
Arsonist, Killer, Saboteur, Spy: While Trump Courts Him, Putin Is Escalating Russia’s Hybrid War Against the West (Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan)
In late January, barely a week into Donald Trump’s second term as U.S. president, a senior NATO official told members of the European Parliament that Russia’s intensifying use of hybrid warfare poses a major threat to the West. In the hearing, James Appathurai, NATO deputy assistant secretary-general for innovation, hybrid, and cyber, described “incidents of …
How to Teach American History (David Davenport and Gordon Llyoyd)
Given the myriad crises our country now confronts, who would haveguessed that among them would be how we teach American history? Nevertheless, as a new school year begins, the content, presentation and teaching of US history are in the news almost daily. Should statues honoring civilwar figures—at least those from the losing side—or former slaveholders …
