Summary |
Program #475 : Title: Cultivating humanity "The debate over multiculturalism is the latest battle in the thirty-year Cultural War that has gripped American society. Much of this controversy is centered on the country's campuses where arguments over traditional versus modern curricula are fierce. University of Chicago Professor Martha Nussbaum canvassed scores of colleges and universities nationwide to provide an illuminating report on the approach many school are taking to forming a generation of world citizens."--Track sheet |
|
Program #476 : Title: Multiple modernities "The lessons and benefits of the Enlightenment have been bestowed on nations in ways that are influenced by their histories and culture. This common sense observation is the heart of Shmuel Eisenstadt's consideration of how the volatility of these combinations results in multiple modernities. Globalism still involves a multitude of approaches to modernity. Most surprisingly, he argues fundamentalism is an aspect of modernity, not its antithesis." --Track sheet. |
