Cape Town, known as "The Mother City" to South Africans, is an exquisitely beautiful place that is in many ways a model for the new Africa: diverse, entrepreneurial, forward-looking. It is one of the hosts of the World Cup this June and July, when hundreds of millions of soccer fans will be focused on the planet's most popular sport. At the same time, June 26-28, Cape Town will also be the site of the first-ever FORTUNE/TIME/CNN Global Forum, a three-day event bringing together FORTUNE 500 CEOs, world leaders and members of the TIME...

In a year on the arts board, I am the only South Asian writer of any nationality that I can recall and one of precious few foreigners—surely this goes somewhere to explaining why foreign films and music are rarely featured in the Arts supplement. Similarly, the international affairs content on the editorial page, such as it is, can be ill-informed; take, for instance, the many...
