One World Government? HG Wells Was Wrong - Big Picture with Jack Atherton

  • Summary

  • Literature has shaped history and society in ways that often go unnoticed. Join us for a captivating discussion with Jack Atherton as we unravel the profound influence of literary giants like Harriet Beecher Stowe, Charles Dickens, and Upton Sinclair, who courageously highlighted societal injustices through their powerful narratives. With a spotlight on H.G. Wells, we explore his audacious vision of a one world government and socialist ideals that left a significant mark on early 20th-century political thought. By examining the historical context of these ideas and the consequences of socialism and nationalism in Europe, we draw connections to the political dynamics of today. Discover how historical insights can illuminate our understanding of power, corruption, and governance in the modern era.
