New FA articles...

Thanks also to tek for the energy dominance article. I found it a little difficult to follow, not as clearly written as the other two, but intriguing, very intriguing. I will file it the better to keep up with these issues in the future.

These three articles suggest a couple of things to me:

(1) tek has argued that Foreign Affairs is no longer quite so heavily US establishmentarian--these articles are definitely not strong evidence in his favor but some--Pollack is surely a part of the in group, Gause unlikely so, and I have no idea about the two authors of the energy article--but the viewpoints embodied don't seem to me to stray very far from what I would imagine to be establishmentarian (wonderful word).

(2) these are the kinds of articles which help one read beneath the news, an old C. Wright Mills phrase from the 50s which he attributed to sociological skills--reading articles this well done in FA help one get a leg up on the same thing in international relations. Or so it seems to me.
