Neoliberal Schizophrenia
Posted by Shadi Hamid

Is the Democratic Party dominated by "neoliberals"? Or have the neoliberals encountered their inevitable demise in an age of renewed leftist vigor? Well, I guess it depends on who you talk to.

David Brooks:

And so began the era of neoliberalism, a movement which, at least temporarily, remade the Democratic Party, redefined American journalism and didn't really die until now.

Well, there you have it, the cultural trends oracle has spoken. But, then, Tony Smith tells us:

Ironically, the neolibs are more powerful today in the Democratic Party than the neocons are among Republicans.

They're both wrong. I feel particularly compelled to say something about Smith's op-ed, which is pretty weak, and one of the most flimsy analyses of Democratic foreign policy that I've seen in at least six weeks. More to come.

The sterile dial with its very legible hands and large numerals is fantastic to use,and a breeze to read in low light conditions.There is no chapter ring -- just a stainless steel space between the dial and domed sapphire crystal.The crystal features an internal anti-reflective coating that does successfully lessen the effects of glare.The domed shape of the crystal meets flush against the bezel and,while it is a small detail,the tight fit will prevent nicks in the edge of the crystal and lint or dust from taking up residence in the space.The Moray is powered by the excellent Miyota 8215 automatic movement seen in many Citizen automatics and it gives the Moray a 45 hour power reserve and handwind capability.On my wrist after a few weeks of wear,the Replica Pulsar Watches was running just about 5-7 seconds fast over a given day,spending its nights in a display case facing dial up.This is very close to COSC timing and is very similar to the Halios Holotype which uses the same movement.I wore the Moray exclusively for weeks and can attest that it is veryaccurate,sturdy,and fits easily under all of my sleeves (including Replica Locman Watches).The Moray does exhibit the same rotor noise found in almost allMiyota based Replica Haurex Watches (when you move your wrist fast enough,you willlikely hear the rotor spinning inside the case).The Benarus Moray is nearly sold out in all configurations; only the PVD with the British Racing Green (BRG) dial is Raymond Watches,and it is selling for $550 USD.It has been an big success for Benarus,and is well regarded on many collectors forums.The rare mix of vintage style,simplicity,500m water resistance,and a great price point made the Moray a fast seller.The Moray has quickly become one of my favorite Replica Hugo Boss Watches.Benarus customer service has been great and subjectively the styling is nearly perfect for my taste in Replica Invicta Watches.After about a month of ownership,I have no complaints or warnings with the Benarus Moray; it is a Replica Rotary Watches,very robust,and beautifully built.By James Stacey; For updates on content,follow Watch Report on Twitter.Replica Officina Del Tempo and Replica Mauboussin Watches.

On my Egypt Air flight yesterday to Cairo, I witnessed one of the more intriguing in-flight exchanges that I can remember. A bearded, well-dressed man sitting a few seats behind me began shouting at the flight attendant. He was complaining that the in-flight movie was inappropriate. What are these “offensive images?ugg boots clearance” he asked. These included a 15-minute stretch of the movie where at least one woman at any given time was wearing a bikini. In a couple of scenes at a club, members of opposite sexes were dancing in close proximity while, it appeared, consuming alcoholic beverages. “Are we really all Westernized now?” the man behind me asked, as if posing a question to those of us in the back of the plane.

The man’s arguments were rather interesting. He pointed out that if you took a poll of the passengers,ugg boots outlet most would agree the film was morally offensive. He asked the attendant, “if we ask the passengers what they think and they agree with me, then what will you do?” The attendant responded, “we don’t take public opinion (ra’i al ‘am) on the airplane.” The man was right: most passengers, and most Egyptians – the vast majority of whom don’t drink, go to clubs, or wear bikinis – would object to the film’s content. But at what point do they have the right to restrict minority expressions of unfaithfulness?

It was an odd, amusing exchange that justified the otherwise unpleasant experience of flying on EgyptAir.ugg boots clearance But it was a reminder of the fundamental lack of consensus in the Arab world over the boundaries and limits of the state. There are two groups – Islamists and secular elites – with worldviews which couldn’t be more different. They live parallel lives in parallel worlds, with parallel institutions. They rarely intersect.ugg boots clearance One group believes it has both history and the Egyptian people on its side. The other side, considerably smaller in number, likely has neither. It does, however, have the power.

This stalemate has paralyzed the Arab world for decades now.ugg boots outlet

Sunday’s elections will be just another version of this.ugg boots clearance The main players are the Muslim Brotherhood – populist, religious, and righteous – and the regime coalition which, with its president soon to pass, finds itself in an uncertain place. Both sides are strong in different ways – and weak in others. Neither seems to have anything resembling a coherent strategy for dealing with the impending transition that is soon to come.
