Summary Program #784 : Title: Directions in Latin America. "From Mexico to Chile, Latin America is experiencing a season of electoral change. Throughout the region pressure is being exerted by restive populations bent on putting more responsive governments in power. The result is a renewed emphasis on populism. Whether this signifies a more leftist orientation in regional governance is a question often posed by outside analysts. Andrew Selee and Felipe Aguero explain how current traditions fit within a venerable tradition of Latin American populist politics."--Track sheet.
Program #785 : Title: Arab television: beyond Al Jazeera. "While great attention is being given to 'Al Jazeera,' the influence of entertainment programs on Arab satellite television should not be overlooked. Game shows, soap operas and reality programs are massively followed in the Middle East and are popular subjects for debate about changing social customs and political attitudes. Much of the discussion about modernity and tradition centers on these programs. Marwan Kraidy describes their effect."--Track sheet.
Commentary #227 : Title: Congressional hearings are too often about spin."Congressional hearings used to be part of the process by which members of Congress figured out how to approach national challenges. Now, says former Congressman Lee Hamilton, 'Congressional hearings are too often about spin'."--Track sheet.
Commentary #228 : Title: Five years after 9/11. "Five years after 9/11, former Congressman and 9/11 Commission Vice Chairman Lee Hamilton looks at what has and has not changed for the United States."--Track sheet.
