COVER: The dawn of the Suburban Era in American Politics. Cover illustration by Robert Crawford.

THE SUBURBAN CENTURY BEGINS: Nearly half the U.S. population now lives in suburbs. "That explains the obsessive focus on the middle class in the 1992 campaign," the author writes. Suburbanites are anti-tax and anti-government. They want a secure and controlled environment. And they are up for grabs. by WILLIAM SCHNEIDER.

CRASHING THE LOCKER ROOM: In the history of the U.S. Congress only fourteen women have served as senators. Only 117 have served as representatives. Today women constitute less than six percent of Congress. Why are their numbers still so small?. by WENDY KAMINER.

BETTER BUT NOT ALL BETTER: Six years ago in these pages Conor Cruise O'Brien wrote of South Africa: "The maintenance of the status quo is impossible. Reforms acceptable both to the white electorate and to politicized blacks are impossible. Revolution is impossible." The authors report on a recent visit to South Africa. by CONOR AND PATRICK CRUISE O'BRIEN.

NICARAGUA: AFTER THE SANDINISTAS: Two years have elapsed since the Sandinistas lost power in Nicaragua. A free-market economy has returned. And so have a host of seemingly insoluble social ills. by DAVID SCHRIEBERG.
JAPAN: NATIONALISM, NOT RACISM: Our well-meaning but wrongheaded tendency to explain frictions between the United States and Japan in terms of racism distracts us from an approach that would be more useful. by JAMES FALLOWS.
