Che cosa lo porta in un lembo di terra inospitale, con troppo freddo e troppe stelle da contare, così vicino all’Antartide da guadagnarsi un nome – “Fine del mondo” – che è un invito a navigare lontano?Eppure da sempre scrittori e narratori, esploratori e scienziati come Shackleton, Chatwin e Darwin accorrono qui in cerca di cieli illimitati per fare spazio a illimitati desideri e pensieri.Frank Lotta, voce vagabonda di Radio Deejay, Paolo Martelli, silenzioso fotografo-poeta e Willy Mulonia, eterno viaggiatore, attraversano la Patagonia con un’idea diversa, forse più intima ma non meno rad...

Since the Emperor Kangxi made his southern tour in 1684, many emperors and Chinese leaders have undertaken similar inspection tours, including Mao, Deng, and Xi Jinping. Deng’s southern tour took place in the backdrop of contentious debates about his radical restructuring of the economy in the Reform era. Jonathan describes how Deng used the tour to reinvigorate his market reforms amidst the turmoil after 1989 and the d...

Opening LinesIn PatagoniaIn December 1974, Bruce Chatwin headed south from Buenos Aires to write an account of his journey through Patagonia. On the surface it was based on a series of encounters with the dispossessed - exiles, refugees and outlaws and those who had made their home on the southernmost tip of South America - but Chatwin’s real interest lay in the internal journey behind their stories and the nature of human restlessness. John Yorke looks at why his vivid prose and highly original style both startled and excited readers when it was published in 1977. It was to catapult Br...

Reardon, author of a new book titled 'A Third Way: The Origins of China’s Current Economic Development Strategy'. Having travelled around the stops of Deng Xiaoping's Southern Tour of 1992, this last episode bookends the series with an overview of the era, with some fascinating personal anecdotes from Professor Reardon, who was on the ground in China for much of the 1980s.

The hydrofoil he travelled by – a remarkably futuristic looking craft in 1990s China – passed a Qing dynasty custom house as it crossed the broad mouth of the river. Here, in the days before the end of the empire in 1912, passing ships were required to stop to pay taxes due on the goods they carried. Upon seeing it, Deng commented that the era when China could be humiliated by foreign powers was now over.

This is Dongguan, sitting between the cities of Shenzhen to the south, and the provincial capital of Guangdong, Guangzhou, to the north. Deng did not visit Dongguan on his southern tour of 1992, but the city was a key part of Guangdong’s remarkable economic success in the reform and opening period. It became known as the factory of the world, making cheap clothes, shoes and toys, its white-tiled factories staffed by migrant workers who ma...

Wuhan – the ‘thoroughfare of nine provinces’, as it is known in China, and where Deng had stopped briefly the day before – is deep in the country’s centre. Between Wuhan and Deng’s next destination, Shenzhen in Guangdong Province, the flat flood plain gives way to wave after wave of mountains, before the land eases once more into the gentler topography of the Pearl River Delta, around which were arrayed the main stops of Deng’s tour.

Over the course of an overnight, one-thousand two hundred kilometre journey, the diesel train rumbles across the North China Plain and the provinces of Hebei and Henan.

It does not stop on its way.

Having retired in 1989, and worried that his successors were failing to continue his project of encouraging ever-faster economic growth, he spent a month travelling from city to city on board his private train, telling the officials that he met - telling everyone he met – that China must not turn back on expanding and reforming its economy.
