I only wish I had access to this fully developed intellectual framework and the courses of action it suggests while still in government. —General Michael V. Hayden (retired) Former Director of the CIA Director of the NSA e problem of secrecy is double edged and places key institutions and values of our democracy into collision. On the one hand, our country operates under a broad consensus that secrecy is antithetical to democratic rule and can encourage a variety of political deformations. But the obvious pitfalls are not the end of the story. A long list of abuses notwithstanding, secrecy, like openness, remains an essential prerequisite of self-governance. Ross’s study is a welcome and timely addition to the small body of literature examining this important subject. —Gabriel Schoenfeld Senior Fellow, Hudson Institute Author of Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law (W.W. Norton, May 2010). ? ? The topic of unauthorized disclosures continues to receive significant attention at the highest levels of government. In his book, Mr. Ross does an excellent job identifying the categories of harm to the intelligence community associated NI PRESS ROSS GARY with these disclosures.

Until now, eight weeks after the beginning of term, only the first day of term has been free of snow, wbile the low temperature, in itself even more remarkable than Ihe snow, has been un­ paralleled for over sixty years. The temperature was below freezing point thl'Ou,;bout most of February, and only once rose to the 39 degrees . which is the average for the month, and on the 24th tbermometers re­ corded as much as 28 degrees of frost. Until now the effect of this has been to allow only two afternoons of hockey, one of which was hampered by the concealment of the ball in the first fall of snow; neither rugger nor soccer has been played so far. Lack of training prevented the inter­ house cross-country from taking place, even had illness spared enough people to make up the teams.

  • Uti Possidetis Juris, and the Borders of Israel
    PALESTINE, UTI POSSIDETIS JURIS, AND THE BORDERS OF ISRAEL Abraham Bell* & Eugene Kontorovich** Israel’s borders and territorial scope are a source of seemingly endless debate. Remarkably, despite the intensity of the debates, little attention has been paid to the relevance of the doctrine of uti possidetis juris to resolving legal aspects of the border dispute. Uti possidetis juris is widely acknowledged as the doctrine of customary international law that is central to determining territorial sovereignty in the era of decolonization. The doctrine provides that emerging states presumptively inherit their pre-independence administrative boundaries. Applied to the case of Israel, uti possidetis juris would dictate that Israel inherit the boundaries of the Mandate of Palestine as they existed in May, 1948. The doctrine would thus support Israeli claims to any or all of the currently hotly disputed areas of Jerusalem (including East Jerusalem), the West Bank, and even potentially the Gaza Strip (though not the Golan Heights).

Child labourers at a rescue centre Plenty of people have ridiculed the ban, saying it is unworkable – it is estimated there are 500,000 child workers in these occupations in Delhi alone – and pointed at the government’s pretty feeble plans to enforce it as further evidence of yet another pie-in-the sky paper initiative. I disagree with the nay-sayers. The ban is an important statement of intent and a significant and welcome change from the age-old position that child labour is a ‘necessary evil’ given widespread poverty in Indian society.
