Poland
The breakdown of Europe’s Eastern Bloc proves that the map of Europe cannot
be redrawn merely to serve political ends. Perhaps no country illustrates this more clearly than
Poland, whose borders often have been a negotiating tool of the Big Powers. These presentations
enlighten our understanding of the current drama in Eastern Europe.

The World’s Political Hot Spots series explains the basis of conflicts in some of the world’s most
politically sensitive areas. Many of these regions are in today’s headlines, and tensions recently
have become violent in virtually all of them. Each presentation covers up to ten centuries of
background, revealing how and why today’s problems occur.

Chile and Argentina

Chile and Argentina
The “southern cone” of South America has a vibrant yet checkered history.
Argentina in 1920 was a productive and wealthy nation, yet by the 1980s was reduced to
virtual third world status. Chile has a long history of internal strife, usually with representative
politics until authoritarians seized power in 1973. Chile was influenced by Spanish conquerors;
Argentina’s Italian and German immigrants made it the most “European” of any South American
country.

politically sensitive areas. Many of these regions are in today’s headlines, and tensions recently
have become violent in virtually all of them. Each presentation covers up to ten centuries of

This rich culture of East Africa, known in the Bible as Abyssinia, claims descent
from king Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Under a Marxist regime, however, this ancient
people has suffered from famine and genocide. This presentation chronicles the heartbreak of
Ethiopia, which mirrors many of the crises besieging the third world countries of Africa.
