...most insightful of the four short essays in the third, entitled "The Second Imperial Requiem, "Galbraith provides the not-so-new but always refreshing argument countering extremists on both sides of the spectrum who rally against U.S./U.S.S.R. neo-imperialism. He notes that an irrational reactionary rivalry between the two powers, not quest for world domination, dictates the sometimes dangerous foreign ventures, and that any such attempts at imperialism are doomed to failure. The reason is that self-determination governs the priorities of all nations, including those of the Third World, and that Eastern and Western dominance are equally repugnant...
...Denver. Just as Mondale must transcend his reputation as a Big Government liberal, Hart has been working during his eight years in the Senate to shed some of the ideological baggage associated with the ill-fated McGovern campaign. He is included in the somewhat nebulous group known as "neo-liberals," who stress the need for a pragmatic approach by business, labor and Government to adapt the economy to an era of high technology. The theme of the election, he said on a campaign swing through Mississippi after his announcement, is "Who represents the future the best?" Hart has put together...
That political "exposé" was the work of Nice's neo-Gaullist mayor, Jacques Médecin, who, like the rest of France's leading politicians, has been furiously campaigning for the municipal elections that will be held on March 6 and 13.

EVIDENTLY tired of being characterized as a "neo-rice" Old Liberal, Presidential contender Walter Mondale has decided it's time America "got tough, and I mean really tough," with its trading partners. "We've been running up the white flag," Mondale--no doubt eyeing the prospects of AFL-CIO endorsement before the Democratic primaries--has been proclaiming in union halls recently, "when we should be running up the American flag." With Senate tough guys John Glenn, Fritz Hollings, and Alan Crimson, he is backing the Domestic Content Bill--a disastrous projectionist measure design to shut foreign-made cars...
...Andropov well knew, there is nothing at all similar about the position Bush held for a year and the powers that the Soviet leader wielded for 15 years as chief of the world's largest spy and state-security machine. From an office in the KGB's ocher-colored neo-Renaissance headquarters at 2 Dzerzhinsky Square,* barely a mile from the Kremlin, the head of the KGB oversees an intricate network of espionage and information-gathering operations that further the political objectives of the Communist Party. Unlike the CIA, the KGB works both abroad and at home, doing...
