Study Day at Menuhin Hall
The Asian Century?
(speaker Steve Bird)
Somewhere around 1880 ‘Pax Britannica’ started to give way to an extra-long ‘American Century’. However, for the past 40 years or so the West has sensed a similar passing of the baton. This time the shift is not to another variant of the European culture which has been so dominant since the 16th century. Rather, we appear to be on the brink of an Asian century with wholly different cultures, outlooks and attitudes, not the least being a resentment of Europe and America.
