Summary |
In today's shrinking world the differences between one place and another appear to be rapidly diminishing yet never have so many peoples struggled to establish their own separate nation states. Resulting tensions have often become bloody and horrifying. What is the future of the nation-state in a world of multi-nationals and global communications? In this series, questions concerning identity and belonging are addressed by four world-famous writers and thinkers: Eric Hobsbawm, Desmond Tutu, Eqbal Ahmad and Maxine Hong Kingston. Archbishop Desmond Tutu led the fight for a new majority-rule state in South Africa. His dream came true in 1994. Today he chairs the Truth Commission, investigating the worst abuses of Apartheid. The programme follows Archbishop Tutu through a typical day in the new country - hailed as the 'Rainbow Nation' - culminating in an emotional reunion with veteran anti-Apartheid campaigner, Archbishop Trevor Huddleston |
