Cover illustration by Ivan Chermayeff. THE BORDER: "The border is grimy, hot, and hostile. In most places it is ugly. The U.S. side is depressed by the filth and poverty in Mexico. On the Mexican side the towns have become ungovernable cities, overrun by destitute peasants, roiled by American values. The border is transient. The border is dangerous. The border is crass." In a narrative journey along the 1,951 miles of the U.S.-Mexican border, the author meets some of the actors on this unruly stage: the Border Patrol agent, the Chicano activist, the Customs pilot, the O'odham Indian tracker, the radar operator. Their territory-.--and the nation it attaches us to--must loom large among the concerns of a United States freed from preoccupation with the Cold War. by WILLIAM LANGEWIESCHE. DEEP THROAT: AN INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS: We may never learn the identity of the secret source who gave information to The Washington Post which helped bring down Richard Nixon. But the author can tell us this: where in the government Deep Throat worked. And that in itself helps to illuminate some of the forces at play in Washington two decades ago as the Watergate scandal unfolded. by JAMES MANN. REPORTS COMMENT: NOTES: THE END OF SCHOOL "What's needed today," the author believes, "is a willingness to think the unthinkable--that school as we know it is doomed--and the will to create something new to take its place." by GEORGE LEONARD. ISRAEL: THE NEW EXODUS Jewish immigrants are entering Israel in astonishing numbers: the equivalent, if projections hold, of the United States' absorbing the population of France. And the newcomers range from devout Ethiopians to secular Russians. The challenge now is to make them into functioning Israelis. by DONNA ROSENTHAL.
