Musical disenchantment ― II
Musical disenchantment ― II
My husband and I don't often do interesting things. We'll go out to dinner once in a while. Sometimes we'll get a hike in, or catch a movie, but such occasions are few and far between.

One of my daughter’s friends is a visiting student from Liaoning, China, a very bright and talented young lady who excels in nearly all that she does. And like so many young people, she has the latest iPhone and spends a lot of her spare time transfixed to it. One day, I asked her why on earth she stays glued to the screen so intently (I had to repeat myself!), and she answer...

Syrian Schadenfreude
Syrian Schadenfreude
UNITED NATIONS ― All of Syria’s five neighboring countries sensed a quiet pleasure in seeing the rebellion against the Damascus dictatorship start three years ago. Many observers, knowing the authoritarian political pedigree of the Assad family rule, probably assumed Syria’s entrenched but moribund political system would be swept away by the winds of the so-called Arab Spring...

BERLIN ― Two years after popular uprisings began to convulse the Middle East, few people speak of an “Arab Spring” anymore. Given Syria’s bloody civil war, the rise to power of Islamist forces through free elections, the ever-deepening political and economic crises in Egypt and Tunisia, increasing instability in Iraq, uncertainty about the future of Jordan and Lebanon, and th...

I suggest that in order to continue her forward trajectory as a nation and as a force contributing to global, humane civilization, Korea must cultivate China and Japan as partners in the transcendence of vulgar nationalism.

Renewing the South Korean Miracle
South Korea’s incoming president, Park Geun-hye, took over a country that has been a global role model for economic development. But, with the economy slowing, it has become a model in need of renewal.

Corruption as threat to Korea's advanced society
Corruption as threat to Korea's advanced society
Confucius is known to have said that unless a person knows what corruption is, he or she will not be able to fight it. We cannot begin to fight corruption until we see that its possibility is in all of us. I also would argue that Confucius identifies corruption, most fundamentally, as the tendency to treat others above and below us in life’s circumstances in ways we would not...

I finally submitted The Investigation, my large translation project. That final week, I spent every spare moment fine-tuning the manuscript, a task made even more arduous by a wedding for which we had to travel to the Midwest. With a sick toddler. Luckily, my daughter had gotten over the worst of the hacking cough/fever combination. Unfortunately, both my husband and I’d expe...

NEW DELHI ― The second anniversary of the “Arab Spring” in Egypt was marked by riots in Tahrir Square that made many observers fear that their optimistic projections in 2011 had been dashed. Part of the problem is that expectations had been distorted by a metaphor that described events in short-run terms. If, instead of “Arab Spring,” we had spoken of “Arab revolutions,” we m...
