Plundering the past is Fjorn’s specialty—but instead of wielding an axe, he’s armed with a Master’s degree in History. His hoard of knowledge covers Viking history, Norse mythology, and medieval sagas—but, unlike a dragon, he’s sharing it with you! And if you’re listening while wandering, please remember that each episode is originally a YouTube video with visuals—so don’t forget to watch them, too, if that sort of thing helps you!

We gaan in gesprek met wetenschappers, journalisten en experts over vragen zoals: hoe ethisch is het willen beïnvloeden van het klimaat met behulp van geo-engineering? Waarom zijn er zoveel complottheorieën over dit onderwerp? En zijn er alternatieven om de wereld te redden?

Itihaas aur puran gawah hain

Nel 1860 il legislatore francese Jules Simon disse che “una donna che lavora non è più una donna”. C’è però un equivoco di fondo: le donne, in qualsiasi epoca storica, hanno sempre lavorato, ma spesso lo hanno fatto senza tutele e riconoscimenti. Questa disparità si esprimeva anche con le parole: “Signorine”, ad esempio, è il modo in cui venivano chiamate fino a non molto tempo fa impiegate e segretarie nei documenti ufficiali. In questo podcast esclusivo di Intesa Sanpaolo e Chora Media, condotto da Serena Dandini, ogni episodio si focalizza su una professione, ricostruita attraverso le testimonianze delle ospiti di puntata e attraverso i materiali di diversi archivi, tra cui i documenti dell’Archivio Storico di Intesa Sanpaolo. Parleremo di infermiere, dattilografe, art director, ingegnere, ma anche di alcune tappe della storia del lavoro femminile in Italia. Ricordando che quelle “Signorine” che si sono barcamenate fra pregiudizi e discriminazioni di ogni tipo, in fondo, volevano solo lavorare in pace.

Signorine - Intesa Sanpaolo On Air

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) enjoys vast deposits of precious minerals and metals.  Diamonds are found in the south and center of the country and the land holds 80% of the world's Coltan, needed in all our mobile phones.  It should be one of the richest countries on Earth, but it is not.  This Podcast explores why, from the very beginning. 

A new podcast will be released each Monday every two weeks, the website is https://www.thehistoryofthecongo.com 

Starting in prehistoric times, we talk through the topography and the Bantu migrations.  We meet the famous empires of Central Africa.  Firstly we meet the The Kingdom of the Kongo which posted diplomats throughout Europe and whose Kings corresponded with the superpowers of the day, and with the Vatican.  This Kingdom was able to ally with International forces and militarily confront the initial European expansions.  We are introduced to the Luba peoples who developed the Bulopwe system of government which spread through central Africa and sat as the bedrock for the adjacent Lunda Empire. 
We see these Kingdoms, and other peoples meeting with the European powers and explorers as Europe wanted to complete its map of Central Africa.  Here the peoples and the country were wrapped up in the eddies of 19th and 20th century international politics.  
The Congolese voice in these is under-represented and the Congo was the catalyst for the colonial expansion of the late 19th Century and, at the behest of a new Superpower, the USA, became the personal property of one man.  The borders were created through opportunistic expansion, geo-political negotiation and a Belgo-Arab war in central Africa.  The DRC borders were never drawn up with reference to the people, the legacy of which still sits with us today.  
Under a Belgian King, the horrors the people were subjected to were the catalyst for a vast human rights movement spreading throughout Britain and America.  Celebrities such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Mark Twain helped force the Belgian King to cede the country to the Belgian State.  The people living there experienced a unique development and supported the allies in World War 1. 
In World War 2 the Congo provided the Uranium for the Manhattan project and became an arena for spies in which the Allies and the Nazis vied for sole use of this in the as yet finished Atomic Bomb.   All this against the backdrop of conflicted loyalties between some of the Belgian elite who sympathized with the Nazi cause and were willing, all too easily, to accept the Nazi Victory over the free world.  
After the allied victory the Congolese had shared the conflict with their European rulers, had seen their value, and a new confidence was born.  Congolese music and culture flourished, and the colony achieved new highs in living standards.  But in the winds of change decolonization spread rapidly throughout Africa.  The Belgians struggled with the pace of change and panicking at unrest and conflicts in the rest if the continent effectively gave 6 months' notice of exit after 52 years.  The Congolese were independent without the history of rule of the country as a whole. 
Tribal loyalties challenged unity and the country was embroiled in the Cold War with its democratically elected leader, Patrice Lumumba, murdered in a murky agreement concocted in the  global geopolitics and the desires of one region which had an eye on independence.  
This ushered in Mobutu, one of infamous dictators of post colonial Africa, who implemented a Kleptocratic form of governance which led to a fragile state.  As the cold war ended and the support of the USA subsided the DRC unraveled and was weakened to external pressures.  In the 1990's the repercussions of the Rwandan genocide spread through the region and was a catalyst for the Central African War, fought largely in the Congo by rebel groups and neighboring states, in which 5 million people died.  
Regions of the country unwittingly hosted refuges and the fighting but a new President emerged after his predecessor and father was gunned down.  He managed to gain the trust of the international community to help slow the hemorrhaging of the countries wealth to its neighbors.  
The country now stands as a cultural powerhouse through music and fashion, and the people watch as their government negotiates foreign aid from the West and development opportunities with the new superpower – China.  With a young and rapidly growing population, a new sense of confidence, and still recovering from continuing conflict in the East the DRC stands looking at an uncertain future. 
The world has been involved in the countries past and will be in the future.  But to understand this, and to start to make a difference, we must look at the road that got the DRC where it is today. 
Starting New Year 2021 this podcast will travel through this journey.  Episodes will be released each fortnight starting January, after an initial burst of releases to provide the bedrock. 
Join us as we go follow a unique and hidden story.

Mit freundlicher Unterstützung der Stiftung Zurückgeben, der Brodt Foundation und der Stiftung Erinnerung Verantwortung und Zukunft (EVZ).
