The war in Darfur, which has in turns captivated the world’s attention and been ignored, is still on. In one of last month’s most-read articles, Brendan Bromwich writes that this is in part because of a flawed, simplified narrative about whether the conflict is primarily about politics or natural resources. It’s both, he writes, and without addressing this complexity, the peace process will not be successful.

Joining Bromwich were new pieces on this year’s World Water Week, a spate of recent reporting on Angola and Thailand, and the psychological phenomenon of “climate trauma.”
