“Second, we should think more like South Korea. Faced with a perilous neighbourhood, Seoul has become adept at "minilateralism": Identifying a concrete problem, defining a specific outcome, assembling three or four capable partners and working toward a result on a timeline.” Read the piece

Only opinion columns and editorials are scored. Each piece is read twice by a language model, which records the author's own stance on a policy topic only where the piece argues one, with a quote that must appear in the piece. An author's position on a topic is the average of their pieces, weighted by the model's confidence. News reporting is listed but never scored.
