In an era when nations are rebalancing and dominant powers proliferate, there is no longer a single narrative. Whatever the issues of the day – Brexit, the Euro, Trump, Trade Tariffs, China, Inequality – they reflect the new reality of a multi-polar world. Nobel Prize economist Joseph Stiglitz believes that capitalism as we know it must adapt, that self-interest now means creating a more equal society, in which the benefits of globalisation and the advance of technology are shared rather...

In this Masterclass Hannah Fry will explain the inner workings of algorithms: their power, their limitations, and whether they really are an improvement on the humans they replace. With algorithms making important decisions in healthcare, transport, finance, security, even what we watch, how much should we rely on them? What kind of future do we want?

15.10.2018     Identity Politics with Francis Fukuyama (https://howtoacademy.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f87ff9f2b37acaa64ab36114a&id=17eade0555&e=6d0e59bcbe)

Francis Fukuyama is the soothsayer of our age, and his The End of History was political science’s Book of Revelation. More recently, he warned of the consequences when state and institutions everywhere are corralled by interest groups. His predictions were borne out by the rise to power of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies now threaten to destabilise the entire international order.

These new charismatic demagogues seek a direct connection to the people – defined in narrow identity terms – and appeal to a particular group by excluding large parts of the population as a whole. Forms of recognition based on nation, religion, sect, race, ethnicity, or gender have in turn...

07.11.2018     A Masterclass in Leadership with General McChrystal with Stanley McChrystal & Hannah MacInnes (https://howtoacademy.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f87ff9f2b37acaa64ab36114a&id=d6601d996f&e=6d0e59bcbe)

In this Leadership Masterclass, retired four-star general Stan McChrystal, formerly commander of US and international forces in Afghanistan, will explore what leadership really means, debunking the many myths that have surrounded the concept. Focusing on thirteen great leaders, including Walt Disney, Margaret Thatcher, Albert Einstein, Leonard Bernstein, and Martin Luther King, he will show that the lessons we commonly draw from their lives are seldom the correct ones and that aspiring leaders will be best served not by cultivating a standard set of textbook leadership qualities, but by learning to discern what is required in each situation.

Neil MacGregor comes to the how to: Academy stage for a deep exploration into the history of human faith through objects: the subject of a major exhibition at the British Museum and a 30 part BBC Radio 4 series.

Religion belongs with our most archaic and tenacious wishes, no society on Earth has lacked beliefs about where it has come from, or about its place in the natural or supernatural scheme of things. No society has doubted that there exists a connection between us and eternal reality.

‘For years now there had been no country here but war’, wrote Michael Herr at the beginning of Dispatches, his classic account of Vietnam. Not a war without end but – more corrosive and maddening – a war without beginning.

There are no precise origins for the Indochina tragedy. Some look back to the Japanese occupation of the Second World War; others prefer 1954 and the battlefield humiliation of the French at Dien Bien Phu; for America it mainly started in 1961, or perhaps 1965.
