Ogre’s Politics and Views

The newest edition of the City Journal is up. A word from the editor on the new edition:

We’ve also posted most of our current issue, including some stories that weren’t available a month ago: Max Schulz’s
eye-opening exposure of California’s “Potemkin environmentalism,” which pretends to be progressive while actually depending on heavy pollution; Myron Magnet’s brilliant analysis of Saul Bellow’s Mr. Sammler’s Planet, a deeply important novel for anyone who lives in a city; Nicole Gelinas’s

explanation of how New Orleans is rebuilding–from the bottom up; Judith Miller’s on-the-ground reporting about Basque terrorism; and, newly available today, Steven Malanga’s article on Bushwick, Brooklyn, one of New York’s most recalcitrant neighborhoods, which is finally making a comeback.

That’s such a big serving of material that I won’t go into all our Web-exclusive stories too–but here’s a link to the list, should you be interested.   Here’s another to the list of our timely book reviews.   And as always, I hope you’ll consider our regularly e-mailed alerts and RSS feeds .
