...left to discretion of a bureaucracy. Leery of the creation of a constraining system, we previously proposed a two-tiered system. One tier would include general education classes with rigid criteria listed separately at the front of the Courses of Instruction. A second tier would consist of a broad array of departmental courses so that students would have more choices of classes to take to fill their requirements. General education classes would have to compete to get students and could not merely use their privileged position to guarantee large enrollments for a mediocre class.

The Prime Minister responded to this dismaying turn of events--caused by Israel's less than triumphant war against Hizballah last summer, plus a gaudy array of scandals among his Cabinet ministers, plus the fact that he wasn't very popular to begin with--in a fairly straightforward fashion.

Moreover, Abbas, who represents the Fatah faction of the Palestinian movement, and Haniyeh, who represents the radical Hamas party, seem genuine in their desire to stop the violence that has plagued Palestinian streets, particularly in Gaza. But that goal has been complicated by array of opponents who have balked at Hamas's role in all this - including the Israelis, George Bush and (surprise) al-Qaeda's No. 2 man, Ayman al-Zawahiri...
...largely successful in creating an engaging narrative without oversimplifying the issues at hand.While there are sections in which Sen lapses into obtuse academic language, he is generally able to overcome these faults. By relying heavily on personal anecdotes, historical evidence, and literary references, Sen appeals to a wide array of readers with varying backgrounds and levels of familiarity with current events.If there is one failure in Sen’s book, it is that it becomes repetitive.As Sen acknowledges in the preface, “Idenity and Violence” began as a series of lectures that he presented...
