...institutions rather than men, and can therefore be legislated away. Thus evils, in the American experience, have always been seen as concrete problems that could be dissected and analyzed-like poverty or hunger-and then dealt with, if the will was there to do so.

Meanwhile Chen Yi, who still holds the title of Foreign Minister, has all but faded from view. Last September, Li headed Peking's delegation to the funeral of Ho Chi Minh. Since Ho was a particular friend of Peking, Li's rank was significant. A few days later, he was in the group that met Soviet Premier Aleksei Kosygin at Peking Airport. Last month Li was the first Chinese official...
