Modi abandons reform for populist nostrums
Sadanand Dhume | The Wall Street Journal
Prime Minister Narendra Modi once styled himself as a business-friendly reformer, but these days he sounds more like a Latin American populist. In his appeal to voters, Modi champions welfare schemes for the poor. His government has raised trade barriers, retreated from privatization, and appointed a nativist ideologue opposed to foreign investment to the board of the central bank.

History will judge him kindly
Sadanand Dhume | Times of India
As India mourns Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the national outpouring of grief may dwarf even the august office he once held. Over the past 50 years, no prime minister who died of natural causes has evoked as spontaneous and widespread a display of sorrow.

HOW GEORGE MARSHALL LOST CHINA

8/6/2018

The Marshall Plan That Failed
// Daniel Kurtz-Phelan
Before George Marshall transformed American foreign policy in Europe, he lost a major political fight in China.

Lyle J.Goldstein writes: It feels surreal to rehash the “Who lost China?” debate from nearly seventy years ago, but here we are yet again deliberating the future of Taiwan and its role in U.S.-China relations and in U.S. defense strategy more broadly. [..]Some Americans have evidently not changed their views much since the 1950s and remain blissfully ignorant of both the relevant history and, even more disturbingly, of the rapidly shifting military balance in the Asia-Pacific region. - The National Interest
