Stephen Fry's 7 Deady Sins - I will take each one of the Seven Sins in turn, lay them out on the surgical table and poke, prod, pry and provoke in an attempt to try to anatomise and understand them; I hope and believe it will be, if nothing else, delicious fun and something of a change from the usual run of podcastery.

In August of 1619, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. America was not yet America, but this was the moment it began.

On the 400th anniversary of this fateful moment, it is time to tell the story. “1619” is a New York Times audio series hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones.

Families with second pregnancies were punished. Quiet often, mothers who became pregnant again were forced to abort - even in the third trimester. But now... China's government is promoting multiple pregnancies. There are even beauty pageants... for pregnant mothers.
In this episode, a replay of its original recording in 2021, my guest scholar peels the history behind this news - the history of China's One-Child Policy.
🚩About My Guest:
Dr. Feng Wang is a professor of sociology at the University of California, Irvine - UCI.
He has research interests in contemporary Chinese society and comparative demographic processes and social inequality in state socialism. He is the recipient of many academic distinctions, honors and awards for his research and books, too many to list here.
He is the author of many books, including the following:
- China's Age of Abundances: Origins, Ascendence and Aftermath,
- Convergence to Very Low Fertility in East Asia: Processes, Causes, and Implications, and
- One Quarter of Humanity: Malthusian Mythology and Chinese Realities, 1700-2000.
Erosion of China's government institutions:
Be sure to listen to my conversation with Dr. Susan Shirk (🎧https://bit.ly/HbN-S2E36s) about President Xi and his ascendence to power. As I mentioned in this episode, China's government under Xi is frighteningly transforming into personalized statecraft.
