This year's Reith Lecturer is British historian Arnold J Toynbee. The former Director of Studies at the Royal Institute of International Affairs, he is currently the Koraes Professor of History at London University. He considers how Europe interacts with other countries in his Reith Lecture series entitled 'The World and the West'.

In his fourth lecture entitled 'The Far East', Professor Arnold Toynbee considers the relationship between the West and the Far East. He argues that the aspect of Western culture which has most successfully transplanted itself to the Far East is technology, and compares it to the failed attempts to introduce religion.
