Bashar Assad�s government slaughtered thousands of civilian protesters in
Syria, the United Nations stood impotent, blocked from intervening by
Russian and Chinese vetoes. The inaction contrasts with U.N. success
stopping similar atrocities during the uprising that overthrew Libyan
dictator Moammar Gadhafi. Some critics charge the U.N. is too heavily
influenced by authoritarian countries, while others say it is dominated by
industrial democracies. Nevertheless, many U.N. agencies quietly feed
the hungry, aid needy children and enable mail and aircraft to move
smoothly across borders.</span></p>

democracies are beginning to lose their traditional dominance in science
and technology � not because they are doing less, but because the rest of
the world is doing more. Developing countries are increasing their share
of patents and R&D spending. International scientific collaborations are
on the upswing, Western universities are building branches overseas, and
multinational corporations are locating high-tech operations abroad.
Traditional powerhouses won't be replaced soon, however, in part because
developing countries� educational systems don't yet nurture innovation.</span></p>
