And if you don't have skepticism and humility, then it's a really short journey to go from reformer to autocrat, and I think you only have to read Animal Farm to get that message about how power corrupts people.

Consider Deng Xiaoping, China s most successful reformer (the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989 notwithstanding). The grand coalition that he forged, against all odds, upon his return to power in 1979 was essential to bringing about the economic transformation that followed.

Xi s desire to become China s next great reformer may well be why his government has been investing so much energy in lauding Deng s achievements. One hopes that he continues to emulate Deng, without allowing his approach to become distorted by Dengism.

After all, he believed that being a philosopher meant assuming the responsibilities of moral reformer. Yet, though morality was always at the center of his thinking, many of the moral truths that we now take for granted never occurred to him.

In his first term, Putin appeared to be an authoritarian reformer, undertaking substantial market reforms, such as introducing a 13 flat income tax. But in his second term, Putin was simply authoritarian, undertaking no economic or social reforms worth mentioning.

Reformist critics believe that in order to mobilize people it will not be enough just to campaign against Ahmadinejad. If a reformer is to win he must prove that he will be able to sway Iran s political structures toward a reform agenda.

Campaigners for democracy admired Yeltsin s struggle against the conservatives in the politburo especially after he was forced out of the party s inner circle in November 1987. Determined to outbid Gorbachev as a reformer, he persuaded liberals to overcome their distrust of his provincial manners.

The first question that any would be Russian reformer should ask nowadays (and which we did not ask during Gorbachev's perestroika) is the following, is society prepared to endure the short term pains of reforms, and how willing it is to endure the pain?

But reformists ask if the Supreme Leader does not even permit the Khatami faction to have a newspaper, would he really have allowed Khatami to become president? Even if any reformer does become president, will he be able to overcome his differences with the Supreme Leader?

By 2008, they were in a strong enough position to respond to the financial crisis by allowing larger budget deficits and thus mitigating the downturn in 2009. Chile was the star reformer, but other countries including Botswana, China, Costa Rica, Malaysia, the Philippines, and South Korea also avoided pro cyclical fiscal policies.

Nobel laureate Mohamed ElBaradei, a liberal reformer, has little in common with Ahmed El Zind, the head of the Judges Club and a Mubarak loyalist. But the anti Morsi forces that backed the revolution regard the price of cleansing the judiciary as too high, arguing that the constitutional declaration will lead to dictatorship.

But the same could have been said of the early utterances of Deng, modern China s greatest reformer.

As former US Ambassador to China Gary F. Locke reported in a speech early this year, the concept of equality before the law has deep historical roots. Indeed, in the fourth century BC, the statesman and reformer Shang Yang famously asserted that, When the prince violates the law, the crime he commits is the same as that of the common people.

DURHAM In 1842, the English social reformer Edwin Chadwick documented a 30 year discrepancy between the life expectancy of men in the poorest social classes and that of the gentry. Today, people in the most affluent areas of the United Kingdom, such as Kensington and Chelsea, can expect to live 14 years longer than those in the poorest cities, such as Glasgow.

about this life and the life hereafter. They ask you about the orphans. Tell them, The best thing to do is what is for their good. They are your brethren if you would associate with them.
