		<description><![CDATA[Lebanon got under my skin.
It was not the beauty of the place.  Beirut is a city with little to discover for the classical tourist.  One can walk along the Corniche &#8211; the  boulevard along the Mediterranean coast. One can spend time getting lost in the shopping streets of Muslim West Beirut.  [...]]]></description>

Toledo &#8211; a story of translation
What does it take to sustain a &#8220;culture of tolerance&#8221; in a society marked by genuine differences? It is a question central to the issues discussed on this blog: from Kosovo to Kakheti, from Timisoara to Thessaloniki.
