DESCRIPTION:The long human odyssey of self-discovery has reached a crucial
  stage: everything we do affects everyone and everything else - and we kno
 w it. The next hundred years will bring more change than we can easily ima
 gine\; more opportunities for more people to achieve the fulfilment of a g
 ood life\, and more risks that could result in catastrophic harm to the en
 tire planet.\nViewed geopolitically\, all the major stress points will inv
 olve the land mass that we know as Europe and Asia. And the main question 
 is whether the world views of the two superpowers - China and America (the
  one fundamentally Confucian\, the other essentially individualist) - can 
 be brought to work together constructively in the face of rising tensions.
  \nAt the same time\, on a deeper level\, the even greater question is whe
 ther and how the irreversible fact of urbanization will nurture a healthy 
 and mature human individuality\, such that the accumulated wisdom of the w
 orld's great cultures - all of which have their origins in that same Euras
 ian land mass - becomes mutually transforming and enriching.\nSpeakers:\nL

 ormer group chairman of HSBC Holdings plc)
