*Aram Bakshian Jr.* *Politics, Americas* [image: Reuters] Why the Supreme Court didn't intervene and what it means for the GOP. As one who has been involved in the political process as a writer and occasional participant for more than half a century, I have always tried to distinguish between politics and political theater, especially since most political theater is so badly written, produced and acted that it is nauseating to behold.

How do you succor a beleaguered ally menaced by a totalitarian antagonist that surrounds it? By courting risk—and by imposing risk on that antagonist.

Fortunately for makers of American strategy, the Cold War past furnishes ample precedent for how to manage risk in the Indo-Pacific in the h...

Hegel saw it before anyone else: by chronicling the past, history plays a role in the rise of ideologies, theologies, and mass movements which tend to immanentize the past in various ways. The cultures with a rich tradition of historiography—like the western civilization, for instance—are home to more powerful ideologies, theologies, and mass movements than the cultures which have failed to adequately chronicle and analyze their past. But the standard of western historiography has been declining since the 1950s and now it is in a pathetic state—this is the reason why the two powerf...
