Dear Educator,

According to Samuel Huntington's 1993 Foreign Affairs article The Clash of Civilizations, world politics is entering a new phase, in which the great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of international conflict will be cultural.

In our January/February issue of Foreign Affairs, Dominique Moïsi argues that the world faces today not only a clash of civilizations but also a Clash of Emotions.

Inside the new issue

The Clash of Emotions

By Dominique Moïsi, Senior Adviser at the Institut Francais des Relations Internationales (IFRI) in Paris.

The world is divided — not just by politics or culture, but by fear, humiliation, and hope.

Saving Afghanistan

By Barnett R. Rubin, Director of Studies & a Senior Fellow at NYU's Center on International Cooperation.

There's still a chance to save Afghanistan — but only if Western powers increase their commitment and crack down on Pakistan.
