Dear reader,
I want to draw your attention to a superb debate on the topic – “The Future Belongs to India, Not China” that took place in London in the summer of 2009. It is moderated by the Central and Eastern Europe correspondent for The Economist, Edward Lucas and features excellent speakers including Lord Powell and David Tang against the motion and Gurcharan Das and Mark Tully arguing for the motion. I recommend the video in its entirety.
Intelligence Squared, the organisation behind the India-China debate is also hosting a debate on Pakistan tomorrow that will be available to live stream from 18:45 (GMT) onwards. I don’t wish for this post to serve as some sort of free advertisement for the organisers but with speakers like Jaswant Singh, Anatol Lieven and William Dalrymple I could not resist.
