Peter Olsthoorn The price we pay for Google
The growth of Google as a gate to information and entertainment is as dizzying as it is fascinating. 'I can't imagine a life without Google', is an often heard saying. There is a blind trust at its ground, but are we aware of Google's selection processes and what it does with the information on our behavior on the internet?

Hans Jansen Why shouldn't Israel exist in the Middle East?

The author argues that the Middle East conflict is the easiest problem in the world to explain, but also the most difficult to solve.
