A big leap

Elizabeth L. MacDowell (UNLV): Domestic Violence and the Politics of Self-Help. Scott Radnitz on why some people think Trump may be a “Siberian candidate”. Eric Levitz on what Donald Trump gets right about debt. How much does Donald Trump pay in taxes? It could be zero. You’re not done with Al Sharpton yet. Information failure: Why have libraries failed so spectacularly as information providers? Ariel Saber on the unbelievable tale of Jesus’s wife: A hotly contested, supposedly ancient manuscript suggests Christ was married, but believing its origin story — a real-life Da Vinci Code, involving a Harvard professor, a onetime Florida pornographer, and an escape from East Germany — requires a big leap of faith. The introduction to Understanding Institutions: The Science and Philosophy of Living Together by Francesco Guala.
