☆ Kissinger’s Triumphs and Mistakes Offer Lessons - The New York Times
  + stars: | 2023-12-02 | by ( Nicholas Kristof | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
I knew Kissinger only slightly (he worked to charm journalists, just as he believed in engaging other adversaries) but see lessons both in his accomplishments and in his catastrophes. He had a capacity to see around corners, perceive possibilities for change and then work tirelessly to achieve them. China early in the Nixon administration was isolated and chaotic, with Red Guards rampaging through the country. But Kissinger saw opportunity and nurtured it in ways that led to the unimaginable: a presidential visit and eventually normalization of relations and an explosion of trade. Russia felt sufficiently outmaneuvered that it then invited Nixon to Moscow and signed a landmark arms control agreement.

☆ Playing Risk Made Cold-War Kids Masters of an Unruly Globe
  + stars: | 2023-01-07 | by ( Rich Cohen | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
A certain kind of brainy kid will reach adulthood with a few general rules for foreign policy: Don’t mass your troops in Asia, stay out of New Guinea, never base an empire in Ukraine. It is the wisdom of Metternich condensed to a few phrases and taught by the game Risk. When many of us think about Europe, it isn’t a CNN graphic that we picture. It’s the Risk board, which taught us nearly everything we know about geography and politics. If we’re unsentimental on the subject of war and peace, blame Risk, which imparted a simple lesson that shapes how we read the news: In this world, it is do or get done.
