Summary |
Program #850: Title: Getting China right "With each passing day China steps more boldly into the first rank of world powers. For the Chinese government this represents the fulfillment of a millennial destiny. for the world community this suggests a need for creative thought on what the accommodation of Chinese power implies for the existing world order. And for everyone there is a dialogue yet to be hold on how China will respond to pressing global concerns on resource management, global warming and human rights. Ross Terrill puts all this in context."--Track sheet. |

Program #851: Title: Who Will Make It Rain? "There is a fresh new wind swirling through the worlds of philanthropy and social activism. It is detectable in the large-scale gains of the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation and in hundreds of small local philanthropic projects. It is a wedding of good business practice to the cause of social progress. Practitioners of this art are known as social entrepreneurs and their strategies are energizing the development world. Particularly effective are the small scale micro loans made to the rural and urban poor for individual projects. Amy Wilkinson explains the dynamics of this new field."--Track sheet. |
