COVER: The new face of War. Cover photo by J. Langevin.

COVER STORY: THE GULF WAR: Pushing aside instant analysis based on faulty reports, military historian Alistair Home picks out the most significant lessons of the war so far, and the likely next steps. . . . Inside the Beltway, William McGurn reports, they're talking about winners and losers--inside the Beltway. . . . L. Brent Bozell III looks at what the media were saying about those high-tech weapons before January 16. . . . David Horowitz reveals what the antiwar movement really opposes.

ARTICLES:
ON THE SCENE: Radek Sikorski reports that in Eastern Europe, the main worry is that the Soviets will bring their chaos West. . . . Why are the Germans so reluctant to enter the war? In part, Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn explains, because we remade them in our image. . . . In Saudi Arabia, Ian Alexander discovers the discomforts of war and anxiety about the peace. Donald Kirk reports, from Baghdad, Amman, Damascus, and Ankara, on the first war to be televised live.

BATTERED WIVES, BATTERED JUSTICE: When, asks Gerald Caplan, does one wrong justify another? When the court accepts your expert witness's politically correct excuse. Murray N. Rothbard asks a few questions about date rape.

REAGANOMICS IN REVERSE: Don't blame the Gipper for the recession or the deficit, Stephen Moore warns: George Bush has increased domestic spending more than any previous President.

WAS SOCRATES A PLAGIARIST?: Nicholas Davidson applies the test of truth to the cutting edge of academic innovation: Afro-centrism.

BOOKS, ARTS & MANNERS Joel Schwartz recommends Arthur M. Melzer's The Natural Goodness of Man, a careful look at the thought of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, for an understanding of the conflict between self and society and how it guides the Left. . . . In The Idea Brokers, James Allen Smith offers a numbingly appropriate study of think tanks; David Brooks finds policy papers as thin as academic ones. . . . Daniel Yergin amuses and informs Jeff D. Sandefer with The Prize, a history of how gamblers, rogues, and money men in the oil industry all scramble through the same unpredictable cycles. . . . Vivian W. Dudro finds good questions and first-rate discussion, but no answers, in The Capitalist Spirit: Toward a Reli-giaus Ethic of Wealth Creation, edited by Peter L. Berger. . . . Richard Grenier's Capturing the Culture isn't just a showcase for the foremost cultural critic on the Right, notes Mark Falcoff: it's fun. .. . Though actors and story excel in Mr. and Mrs. Bridge, John Simon finds that the screenwriter almost ruined it--and in Awakenings, he did. . . . Nika Hazelton wonders who keeps sending her all those catalogues.
