Dear friend of Arkadia,
You are heartily invited to “The Prerequisites for Change and Development” by Kim von Weissenberg on Thursday 3.3 at 6pm.
Much of the background for the presentation is to be found in Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies by Jared Diamond, 1997
Kim will present the basic conditions for change and development in human societies and invite all to join the debate.
You are kindly reminded that General Elections in Finland are approaching fast.
The talk will be in English but questions in Finnish and Swedish are welcome.
Welcome!
Warm regards,
Ian
