    1974-1988 Fifteenth Anniversary

    Fifteenth Anniversary 1974-1988 John Kenneth Galbraith Bill Moyers Stanislav Menshikov What tasks lay before the world's superpowers as they try to solve the common complex problems of poverty, homelessness, food production, education and drugs? Can the socialist and capitalist systems find parallels between their economies that could serve as the basis for cooperation and reform? This celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of New England Circle focuses on today's major international issue, the coexistence of Capitalism with Communism. Tonight, our Discussion Leaders are two of the world's most brilliant economists representing the two superpowers, John Kenneth Galbraith and Stanislav Menshikov. They will discuss the differences, similarities, strengths and weaknesses of the two contrasting systems. Dr. Galbraith is past President of the American Economic Association and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Dr. Menshikov, a comparative economist, has conducted econometric studies of the American, Japanese and Soviet economies. He has also served in the Secretariat of the United Nations and the Central Committee of the Soviet Union's Communist Party. Sharpening the dialogue between Drs. Galbraith and Menshikov is the nation's premier public affairs tele- vision journalist, Bill Moyers. Movers is a founding partner of Public Affairs Television, Inc. which he views as "an effort to use television to explore substantive challenges to democracy." Included in Moyers' vast experience as a reporter, commentator, publisher and Special Assistant to the President, is his service as a director of The Council on Foreign Relations. When New England Circle celebrated its tenth anniversary, we discussed the possibility of a "Spirit of Hope" as we reviewed the prospects for peace in a nuclear age.
