Midterm Elections 

Albert R. Hunt:"The U.S. midterm elections have had almost everything, except a vision for governing. ... An election in which neither party advances ideas usually augurs poorly for getting much done."

Foreign Policy 

The Editors: "Afghanistan planted enough opium poppies last year to blanket 20 Manhattans, supply about 90 percent of the world's demand, bankroll the Taliban and ensnare millions of addicts at home and abroad. ... Can anything be done to keep Afghanistan from becoming the world's premiere narco-state?"

Economics 

Mark Buchanan: "If the enterprise of economics aims to teach us how best to create and maintain wealth, you would hope it would at least have a means to measure it accurately. Unfortunately, as of yet, it doesn't even come close."

Clive Crook: "Apart from the aqueduct, sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system, public health and peace, what have the Romans ever done for us? Economists, it seems, are under-achievers in much the same way."

European Economy 

The Editors: "Wrangling among the 11 euro-region nations planning to tax financial transactions is further evidence, if any were needed, that the levy is a bad idea that should be abandoned."

Ukraine Crisis 

Leonid Bershidsky: "In the history of Ukraine's Maidan revolution, which ousted President Viktor Yanukovich in February, Mustafa Nayyem deserves prominent mention. A year after the journalist's Facebook post drew the first protesters to Kiev's main square, he's now a freshly elected member of parliament, conflicted about his role and struggling to find a voice for his generation."

Latin America 

Mac Margolis: "Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff won't begin her second term until Jan. 1, but if the first week after her re-election is any indication, the coming four years will be stinkers."
