A New Phase of the War in Ukraine
Russia’s war in Ukraine has entered its third month. Putin’s failure to win a quick victory, while NATO-armed Ukraine resists but cannot defeat the Russian invasion, has led to a stalemate — one that is deepening the international character of the conflict and thus the risk of escalation.

March 4, 2022Capitalism, Nationalism, and Copaganda: Biden’s First State of the Union
Joe Biden’s first State of the Union address reveled in nationalism, vague promises, and anti-Russian rhetoric.
