COVER: Willa United Europe remain America's Ally?

COVER STORY: After Socialism, What? The collapse of Communism has left Europe without a reigning ideology. What will fill the void? Corporatism? Thatcherism? Socialism by another name?

Rodman ponders how to absorb Eastern Europe into the Western security alliance. Cover photo: L. Downing, Woodfin Camp & Associates.

ARTICLES:
On the Scene: Why do government statistics usually favor big government? William McGurn takes a close look at the "impartial" Congressional Budget Office. . . . Bruce McKenna warns that Pakistan faces severe instability, unity under oppressive Islam, or both. . . . Jack Fowler encounters a grassroots conservative boomlet in Philadelphia.

Iran-Contra: The Prequel: Did Ronald Reagan steal the 1980 election by dealing with the Ayatollah? Richard Brookhiser detects a different conspiracy.

Bury My Bones at Wounded Knee: Clement W. Meighan explains that archaeologists are not only politically incorrect, they're liable for it.

Accounting for Results: We've been pushing school choice, but why? Chester E. Finn Jr. explains how lack of accountability is killing American schools, and how choice will--and won't--help.

BOOKS, ARTS & MANNERS: James Bowman finds that Haynes Johnson, in his account of the Reagan Presidency, Sleepwalking through History, isn't so much bright-eyed and bushy-tailed as addicted to No-Doz. Brad Miner praises an alternative approach to history, Geoffrey Smith's judicious sympathy for his subjects in the insightful Reagan and Thatcher. . . . The best way to consider the Eighties may be in context: Doug Bandow recommends Henry R. Nau's analysis of postwar international economic policy, The Myth of America's Decline. . . . Loren E. Lomasky approves Jeffrey Reiman's re-examination of natural-justice and social-contract theory in Justice & Modern Moral Philosophy. . . . Pastoralist James C. Roberts considers three of the season's best baseball books, and poses the question, Why is this sport different from any other? John Simon takes no comfort from The Comfort of Strangers but is willing to chercher La Femme Nikita.. . . Displeased with NR's obituary, Peter Glenville remembers a more nuanced Graham Greene, well aware of virtue and sin.
