Cuba was the first communist state to be created in the western hemisphere - it’s also the last one standing. The President insists that these measures are designed to preserve, rather than dismantle, Cuban socialism.

Twenty-five years ago in December 1989, Václav Havel was elected as President of Czechoslovakia, marking the end of the Velvet Revolution and with it, the culmination of 41 years of communist rule. By his side throughout was Michael Žantovský, Havel’s press secretary, speech-writer, translator and close friend. The pair met as dissidents under communist rule and remained close until Havel’s death in 2011. Žantovský will be joining us in conversation with Edward Lucas, senior editor at The Economist, to bear witness to Havel’s extraordinary life as documented in his new book Havel: A Life, and to share his own experiences of living through the Velvet Revolution and the formation of the Czech Republic.]]> https://www.frontlineclub.com/insight-with-michael-zantovsky-havel-and-the-velvet-revolution/feed/ 0 45814 https://www.frontlineclub.com/here-be-dragons-the-post-traumatic-world-of-albania/ https://www.frontlineclub.com/here-be-dragons-the-post-traumatic-world-of-albania/#respond Tue, 28 Jan 2014 13:19:56 +0000 https://www.frontlineclub.com/?p=39882 https://www.frontlineclub.com/here-be-dragons-the-post-traumatic-world-of-albania/feed/ 0 39882
