Globalization, the effective erasure of national boundaries for economic purposes, risks standards-lowering competition, an increased tolerance of mergers and monopoly power, intense national specialization, and excessive monopoliza tion of knowledge. The better alternative to globalization is internationalization, which advocates that the basic unit of community and policy remain the nation.

The food industry in its advertising conspicuously appeals to the image of nature and insists that all its products are natural. This has made it difficult for the industry to embrace, as it wishes, the efficiencies of genetic engineering.

The case of female circumcision (or female genital mutilation - FC/FGM) raises the broader question of what stance the liberal constitutional state should adopt when cultural customs offensive to its citizens are practiced in countries outside its jurisdiction or in minority communities within it. The author argues that one can support international efforts for a global ban on FC/FGM but tolerate the practice in liberal democratic societies.

C. Mills
In exploring the charge that "family-friendly" policies in the workplace penalize fellow workers without children, the author argues that all of society's members share some responsibility for assisting parents in raising children well, that this responsibility is best met by broadly shared tax policies and government programs, and that working parents must be realistic about the tensions that exist between work and parenthood.

Because of its visibility, Randall Robinson's new book, "The Debt: What America Owes to Blacks," may rekindle a broad public debate on reparations. The issue is not new, nor is public debate about it.

It has already been more than five decades since the first, and the last, use of nuclear weapons in warfare. Who could have believed fifty years ago? These five-plus decades of nonuse are a stunning achievement. They may also represent some stunning good luck.

More than a half century has passed since the first and last use of nuclear weapons in warfare. Thomas C. Schelling suggests that over the years a convention has arisen, one which provides strong evidence that nuclear weapons are under a "curse." It is remarkable that nuclear weapons have not been used for so long. But is it true that there exists a taboo on their use?

How many art exhibitions are accompanied by a "Health Warning"? Visitors to the Brooklyn Museum's recent "Sensation" show were told: "The contents of this exhibition may cause shock, vomiting, confusion, panic, euphoria, and anxiety.
