sep 90

Margaret Thatcher, warmonger, breaker of unions, destroyer of public services, friend of the rich and enemy of the poor seems to have been the international success story of the 1980s.
Yet as the 1990s begin defeat seems to be staring Thatcher in the face. The economy, the showpiece and basis of Tory strategy, is sliding into recession. There is public outcry over the condition of the health and education services. And the massive movement against the poll tax has already provoked one of the largest riots that central London has ever seen. So, asks Lindsey German, are these the last days of Thatcher?

The Cold War is giving way to a new era of peace, or so presidents and media pundits constantly assure us. Yet in the Gulf and in Africa, in South East Asia and the Indian subcontinent, on the southern borders of the USSR and in central America bloody conflict is still the order of the day.
Even in Europe the euphoria of the last year's revolutions has given way to instability. The old superpowers are challenged by the emerging power of Germany and Japan. John Rees looks at how the Cold War ended and at the new imperialism taking its place.

Chaos theory is more misused than understood. Paul McGarr dismisses the bogus political use to which it has been put and shows why this new science is asking the same questions that have long been thought the idiosyncratic concern of Marxist philosophers.
