| Summary |
Program #793 : "Title: The World's Most Savage War. The wars of Africa often contain a strong element of economic exploitation hidden within the layer currents of political and ethnic rivalry. The Democratic Republic of Congo has been an historic example of this phenomenon. Once ravaged for rubber and copper, the country is now devastated by conflicts over control of Coltan - a mineral essential to mobile telephones and other devices. John Katungha explains how an unholy alliance of domestic combatants and international interest conspire to forment a brutal war that hinders the country's stability and progress."--Track Sheet |
|
Program #794: "Title: Inside Iraq's Green Zone. From just after the invasion of Iraq to the installation of an interim government in June 2004, the country was run by the Coalition Porvional Authority. It was a strange period in which the authority sought to impose an unrealistic agenda on a country it did not understand. And many of those who implemented the agenda lacked credentials for the positions they held. Author Rajiv Chandrasekaran describes a surreal period that has had lasting and negative effects on the course of the events in Iraq."--Track Sheet. |
|
Commentary #240 : "Title: We Urgently Need to Fix Our Voting System. The debate over whether a congressional candidate in Florida narrowly lost her race last November because of machine error reminds us just how fragile our election systems are. Former Congressman Lee Hamilotn says, "We urgently need to fix our voting system'."--Track Sheet. |
|
Commentary #241 : "Title : Four Crises for American Diplomacy. Former Congressman Lee Hamilton reviews four diplomatic crises that have been lost in the shadow of Iraq: Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, and Sudan."--Track Sheet. |
