You're so trusting, and possibly way behind the curve. The amount of spying going in UK is literally Potty Time with Michael Bentine. Maybe, as you're an institution then you are far removed from minority life over the past 50 years. I watched footage just the other day where 200 Riot Police, waving the former USSR flag, waylay some 250-300 Union Jack bearing people and the Riot Police literally, and factually, caused enough friction to start the riot, which wasn't a riot, but reported as one. Maybe if you did see the underbelly you'd have cause for concern, but how would you ever?

03:00 "the formal channels of communication between the major powers" Just the other day, the eminent international relations scholar Yan Xuetong said that, unlike Russia, China has a very functional and effective escalation management mechanism with the USA, so that he thinks the risk of direct war with China is very low. (interview with South China Morning Post). On the culture of authoritarianism versus the British culture... hm: One one hand, it is a myth that George Orwell worked a spy after the end of WW2. But, the records show that Orwell was himself the subject of lengthy investigations and surveillance by British intelligence. And Sir Roger Scruton spoke very vividly how mentally tortured he was by the paranoia and suspicion aimed at him, as a conservative, during all his years as a lecturer at Birkbeck College. (See Conversations with Scruton, by Mark Dooley)

To really understand someone else, or another culture, you need to understand them on their own terms, as they are. You have to set aside a lot of your own culture and go into the other culture naked. Then you really know them. If you can set aside your own culture for a while and thoroughly understand another culture, maybe even feel it, you will find beauty beyond the imagination at the beginning of your journey. You will also end up understanding your own culture much better, and much deeper. The novel Shogun has a great contrast. The Jesuit, Father Alvito, went to Japan as a boy and lived most of his life there. He knew Japan better than most Japanese. But he was forever a foreigner, an outsider. His knowledge was a scholar's knowledge. The pilot, John Blackthorne, had no choice. He was thrown into Japanese society alone. All other Europeans in Japan were his enemies. He had to learn and adapt and become Japanese to survive. His knowledge was the knowledge of a member of that society; he could feel Japan at the emotional level.

Sir, you might have brought your knowledge to the right-thinking people of this planet decades ago, when you were aware of the dangers! But no, your, like many others' livelihoods were in peril.........SHAME?

COVID-19 didn’t cause paralysis; government response caused paralysis. Thank you for acknowledging you were privileged. Most were not so lucky. For me, COVID was a blessing and a curse: although my work hours were reduced, I relished the break from the relentless children’s extra-curricular sporting and school commitments. Being a widow, the 27 hours a week saved quite literally saved my sanity. I was exhausted and finally got to stop! The reduction in petrol, sports uniforms, registration fees and equipment costs helped offset the wage drop. I absolutely loved the opportunity to be a ‘stay at home’ working from home mum. p.s. we were also able to get a dog 😍

Here in America there were also many benefits. One was people liked the time off to think for themselves. Many decided to not return to regular full-time jobs. Corporate America is bitter about that and they still do not know how to force labor back to full-time employment. Regular people realized the benefits of working from home. Not just in money savings, but also mental health, time spent with pets, in their gardens, and nurturing social and cultural bonds. People's health began to improve and that cost the hospital industry enormous costs. They still bemoan that children's hospitals throughout the country lost money because not enough children got sick. Even in some of the poorest parts of the world, they experienced the benefits of having a balanced life, and not to mention pollution free environments. One anecdote I saw on TV was for the first time since the Brits left India, people could actually see the Himalayas with their naked eyes because thanks to COVID, all smoke-stacks industry shut down. Not many alive today remembers seeing the snow-clad mountains.

It wasn't entirely bad. Also, perhaps, because it led to this study : Spatiotemporal variation of excess all-cause mortality in the world (125 countries) during the Covid period 2020-2023 regarding socio economic factors and public-health and medical interventions. - CORRELATION Research in the Public Interest, 19 July 2024.

Perhaps the works of Marcus Cicero such as "On Duties" are relevant in regards to the need for labour as Milton Friedman's "Capitalism and Freedom" Frederich Engle's "Das Kapital," and Pope Leo XIII"s 1893 encyclical "Rerum Novarum" are for the economical and social effects. In fact, Cicero considered agriculture to be the most respectable profession. I also suggest reading Brian Crosby's "Smart Kids, Bad Schools" in regards to the need for trade schools, which are gaining popularity as they provide affordable and mandatory education and certification for skilled labourers, who will always be in demand; especially in economic hardships such as bear markets, market crashes, and the aftermaths of disasters.

Good Day Prof. MacFarlane! Prof. Joseph Campbell as well as Sprengler spoke on a similar Aspect (correspondingly; Pathways to Bliss and The Decline of the West). Though Campbell attributed the philosophical Change to the Advancement of the CityStructure, (i.e. the great Reversal), Sprengler attributed the philosophical Change to the LifeCircle of Civilization. Any Thoughts on this? I will subscribe to your Channel anyway, so if you want you can answer in another Presentation if you want. P.S. Thanks for the Presentation.

I can recommend the novel "Creation" by Gore Vidal, which is based on the axial age premise, and tells the story of the Persian grandson of Zoroaster and his diplomatic travels, during which he meets the contemporaries Socrates, the Buddha and Confucius. The chronology regarding Zoroaster is probably off, (he seems to have lived much earlier) but it still tells a good story of inter-civilisation fusion and fertilisation.

Hi Alan. The phrase "bread and circuses" is attributed to Juvenal. Satire 10.77-81. His estimated biographical dates puts him somewhere between Nero and Hadrian. Enjoy the posts! Thanks!

In modern political discourse this silence is characterized as deafening. For example, just today in America, half the news media are silent about the overnight Russian bombing of an Ukrainian children's hospital. Silence does indeed speak louder than words.

In your speech you say 5:30 "There is a very strong relationship between this [family] structure and capitalism, because you are free laborers on a free market, which is absolutely essential...." What is to be done with the appearance of a situation that neither the labourer is free, nor is the market? Among other things, corporations are notoriously quasi-totalitarian institutions. And just survey people of working age about their freedom in labour.
