Here are some of the great pieces I've had the good fortune to publish this year:
- Michelle Goldberg considers the rise of violence on the right.
- Jessica Hopper reviews the first volume of Susan Sontag's journals and asks why mothers can't be intellectuals:
- Scott Lemieux defends the politics of judicial confirmation.
- Greg Anrig examines how some states successfully raise taxes, even in an economic downturn.
- Chris Hayes asks if depressions are necessary.
- Tom Lee argues Twitter isn't the best place for political discourse.
