...Congressional hostility to the U.N. has grown in the '90s, in part through the Clinton administration's failure to properly explain and defend the organization. "Helms still spoke of the U.N. as if it?s some kind of world government threatening U.S. sovereignty, which doesn?t reveal much understanding of international diplomacy," says Dowell.

Think of it as Germany's Watergate: a nation stripped of its political innocence by revelations of rampant malfeasance in the corridors of power.

In analysis of one self-portrait, Schama writes that the painter "has disappeared inside his persona," inscrutable beyond the dead dark eyes of the painting. The artist's disguise hides his true self, and the critic is left to speculate. It seems that in this case Schama is grasping...
