A series of four talks by Tibor Mende
1 — China
After recently revisiting Asia-in particular India, Japan, and China-M. Mende feels that these three countries, containing nearly half the world's population, together form a triangle within which the fate of the West and thus of the whole world may be decided.
In this talk he analyses the motives behind the Chinese attempt to create what he sees as an entirely new type of social and economic development, the methods being used to achieve it, and its Possible effects abroad.

In a series of seven programmes classical scholars and archaeologists examine the light thrown by increased archaeological and linguistic knowledge on the question of how fifth-century Greece developed those features that set it apart from earlier and contemporary civilisations.
