    Afrikan dekolonisaatio

    Siirtomaavalta Afrikassa alkoi purkautua toden teolla toisen maailmansodan jälkeisinä vuosikymmeninä. Ensimmäisen maailmansodan aikoihin Afrikassa oli ollut vain kaksi itsenäistä valtiota, muut eurooppalaisten siirtomaita. Afrikassa teollistuminen ja kaupungistuminen alkoivat vahvistua toisen maailmansodan aikoihin, mikä lisäsi muun muassa työläisten järjestäytymistä ja lukutaitoa sekä vahvisti vapaan lehdistön asemaa. Afrikan eliitti oli myös alkanut kouluttautua siirtomaaisäntien yliopistoissa sotien välissä, mikä synnytti uusia ideoita vapaudesta. Lisäksi siirtomaavaltojen ongelmat ja heikko menestys toisessa maailmansodassa osoittivat siirtomaiden ihmisille, että eurooppalaisvaltiot eivät olleet lyömättömiä. Myös toisen maailmansodan todellinen voittajavaltio, uusi supervalta Yhdysvallat, oli jo vuosikymmeniä vaatinut eurooppalaisilta siirtomaavalloilta kolonialismista luopumista. Siirtomaavallan purkautuminen sujui osassa Afrikan maista rauhallisesti, osa taas ajautui verisiin vapaus- ja sisällissotiin ja osa diktatuuriin, korruptioon ja kleptokratiaan.

    596. 01:23:45 26 april 1986 – Tjernobylkatastrofen

    När detta avsnitt blir publikt är det på sekunden 40 år sedan världen förändrades. 40 år sedan teknikerna på Tjernobyls kärnkraftverk i Ukraina kände marken skaka. 40 år sedan Sovjets hemlighetsmakeri stötte på ett problem inte ens den totalitära supermakten kunde förneka. Om du lyssnar på det söndag morgon är det precis 40 år sedan ett antal brandmän offrar sina liv för att stoppa eldsvådan från att sprida sig till andra reaktorer. Hjältar vi har att tacka för allt. Det här avsnittet är ingen "deep cut". Vi har varken nya perspektiv eller radikala omtolkningar. Men att ägna denna söndag åt någonting annat än Tjernobyl vore tjänstefel.
