DESCRIPTION:\n\nNiall Ferguson\nThe economist and historian Niall Ferguson argues that 
 Western civilization came to dominate the world by developing and using six 
 concepts: competition, science, the rule of law, modern medicine, 
 consumerism and the work ethic. As the rest of the world adopts these 
 concepts, the less the west dominates it. Mr. Ferguson discusses the 
 historic power of several western empires and their inevitable decline with 
 author, reporter, and cultural critic Susan Jacoby.  \nSource: After Words: 
 Niall Ferguson, "Civilization: The West and the Rest," hosted by Susan 
 Jacoby \nStephen Zunes\n\n\nStephen Zunes on the Middle East\n\nStephen 
 Zunes discusses with Scott Horton the Arab Spring as the culmination of 
 decades of peaceful rebellion against tyrannical governments. He explains 
 how violent revolutions tend to breed more violence and result in 
 authoritarian governments.  He comments on how the Bush administration 
 helped to bring down a few of Middle East/North African dictators without 
 meaning to.\nSource: Scott Horton Interviews Stephen Zunes\n\n\n\nPlay
