Public meeting: You say you want a revolution: The Arab Spring

Thursday, October 20, 2011 - 18:00

Since December of last year, across the Middle East, dictatorial regimes have toppled and people power has triumphed. But what does this much-heralded wave of revolutionary fervour mean in the longer term? Amidst the strikes and protests, demonstrations and civil uprisings, is the ‘Arab Spring’ a turning point for resistance movements around the world, and what are the implications for other entrenched conflicts in the region?

Fairfax Studio, the Arts Centre, 100 St Kilda Rd, City.
