Throughout human history, societies, civilisations have prospered and
collapsed over time. The reasons, obviously, have lessons for the whole of
our intricately interlinked planet today. At Princeton University in

about the collapse of ancient societies. And today, Background Briefing will
broadcast that talk, edited and including some questions and answers at the
end.
