This episode shares some
fascinating ideas about how to understand culture, identity and
civilization. The historian Steve Davies argues that rather than
being at the end of a long story of "western civilization", we are
at the beginning of something radically new, unplanned and totally
alien to the historical cultures of both the "West" and everywhere
else before circa 1800. I've summarised these ideas in the podcast,
but I also recommend that you watch the thought-provoking lecture
by Steve Davies.
