This is another brilliant Adam Curtis documentary originally produced for the BBC. It talks about the modern political realities, where the policies came from and the massive failures of those ideals and how they have ended up exactly where they did not want to be.

Hi, I'm Nick Hawes and I'm a Lecturer in Intelligent Robotics at the School of Computer Science. I work on the CogX Project,I was at Media Lab Europe in the now defunct (but not forgotten) Common Sense group. Before that I completed a PhD here, working with Aaron Sloman on intelligent agents for computer games. My thesis can be found on the publications page. My current research has moved me away from computer games and more towards cognitive architectures for robotic systems, and all the other problems we are tackling on the CoSy project.
