Approaches
to thinking about world events are informed by filters through which
we understand and interpret what's happening. These approaches are shaped
by experience, culture, our own sense of history, and the information
resources available to us. The Web offers access to worldwide resources
from which we can draw points of view, commentary, and analysis. Americans
have daily access to news as disseminated in the United States. Many
of the links on this page are to resources from outside the United
States.
