...commemorated the fifth anniversary of 9/11, the U.S. government continued to maintain several hundred people in an illegal prison at Guantánamo Bay. Don't Americans realize the damage they inflict on their own image, democracy and ultimately Western civilisation? If we ever come to a "clash of civilisations," as some historians have suggested is possible, or to the religious war imagined by others, we will owe it exclusively to the hypocrisy and criminal behavior of the U.S. government. Roberto Hollnagel São Paulo, Brazil A King's Vision for Peace In time's Sept. 18 interview, King...
Anything seems to go in design today: styles clash, boundaries blur and hipper-than-thou types talk of "hybridity." And few practitioners better reflect the pick-and-mix trend than Barcelona-based product designer[an error occurred while processing this directive] Jaime Hayón. The 32-year-old Spaniard has a taste for the theatrical, so calling the latest overview of his work (at the Aram Gallery in London until Nov. 4) "Stage" is entirely appropriate.

It’s traditionally Harvard’s lone day in the athletic sun, with Sportscenter coverage, a national broadcast, and enough of a crowd to give last year’s clash the fifth-highest single-game attendance in all of Division I-AA football, higher than 456 Division I-A games. But the 2006 edition will be subject to restrictions unheard of in previous years, even after what was often called an overly restrictive policy at Yale last year that merely banned...
...clash of narratives described by Tolan that ultimately fuels the controversy over Hamas recognizing Israel. Hamas's dramatic election victory came precisely because the Palestinian electorate judged Fatah to have failed. To simply demand, as Israel and the Western powers are doing, that Hamas now echo Fatah's symbolic recognition of Israel and renunciation of violence is pointless. Fatah recognized the State of Israel only because it had become clear to them that Israel was an irreversible historical fact. But that certainly did not stop Fatah's rank and file from taking up arms during the intifada that began...
