Lured by bargains created by the decline of the dollar and by the conviction that the United States is the world's safest haven for capital, they've bought up everything from Brylcreem to Bantam Books, from factories to farmland. Newsweek assesses the burgeoning trend, with accompanying pieces providing a close-up look at the buyers of America--and the way in which they do business. (Newsweek cover sculpture by Robert V. Engle, photographed by Matt Sultan.). TOP OF THE WEEK: SLIM PICKINGS: Jimmy Carter approached Thanksgiving with a scrawny economic turkey on the table--and a big knife. His aim was to cut government spending to the bone and go all out against inflation. He risked alienating liberal Democratic constituents, but hoped that austerity politics in 1979 would be astute politics in 1980. CURTAINS UP: The BRITISH THEATER is putting its best feet forward this autumn. Peter Brook, its most innovative director, has staged a new "Antony and Cleopatra." And playwrights Tom Stoppard and Harold Pinter opened new plays--"Night and Day" and "Betrayal." Senior Editor Jack Kroll (left) reports from London. ORACLE: For 50 years, MARGARET MEAD was the world's most visible-and most vocal --anthropologist. Her research into primitive societies cast light on our own, and when she died last week at 76, she had become a national oracle with her unpredictable and peppery views on every issue from nuclear families to nuclear war. IN SPACE: Many earthlings may regard the idea as nothing but science fiction, but experts are sure that the colonizing of space will soon become a reality. They envisage 10,000 people working in space before the end of the century. But there are problems ahead, and some question whether humans belong out there at all. BODY TALK: After ten years on the downturn, hems are rising again. American designers showed shorter skirts and slimmer, sexier lines for spring. Big is out. The body is back. INDEX: NATIONAL AFFAIRS: Jimmy Carter's politics of austerity. Why some polltakers made bad calls. Welfare reform: a surprising test. Hamifton Jordan's new look. Was James Earl Ray out for money?. Verdict in the "Key Hole" spy case. INTERNATIONAL: A turning point on the road to Mideast peace. An interview with President Sadat. Smooth talk in Moscow--and MiG's in Cuba. Nicaragua: Somoza under the gun. A talk with the guerrillas' Commander Zero. Iran: sitting on the lid. Vietnamese refugees: a cruise to nowhere. MEDICINE: Department-store dentistry; A nlew cholesterol cutter. BUSIINESS: THE buying of America (the cover). Bosses with a foreign accent. The biggest buyer--and still growing. Supermarket chains in trouble. Combating the coupon hustlers. The wormburger scare. LIFE/STYLE: Spring fashions: slimmer and shorter. IDEAS: Are colonies in space inevitable?. SCIENCE: A new generation of atom smashers. NEWS MEDIA: Shake-out in the magazine field. EDUCATION: Nestlé under pressure on campus. SPORTS: College football: playing to win. THE COLUMNISTS: My Turn: Colman McCarthy. George F. Will. THE ARTS: THEATER: An exciting London season. "Platinum": computerized miscalculation. ART: The National Gallery's Edvard Munch exhibit. MOVIES: "Movie Movie": shadowy memories. "The Wild Geese": clichés and carnage. BOOKS: "Prick Up Your Ears," by John Lahr. Iris Murdoch's "The Sea, the Sea". Donald Thomas's life of Lord Thomas Cochrane. "Tin Soldiers on Jerusalem Beach," by Amia Lieblich. ______ Use 'Control F' to search this page. * NOTE: OUR content description is GUARANTEED accurate for THIS magazine.
