Techonomy CEO Kirkpatrick speaks with Edie Lush at Hub Davos

Last week when people used social media to mobilize - by the tens of millions - to get rid of a bill in Congress - was an historic event. Congress turned 180 degrees on an issue. A bill that was unanimously voted out of committee was completely abandoned by its founders within a day. We have never before seen a political issue die as fast as that issue. But the question is - can social media be positive creative force as much as it is a destructive force?

Kaspersky CEO Eugene Kaspersky speaks with Edie Lush at Hub Davos

Eugene Kaspersky tells Hub Culture's Executive Editor Edie Lush that while we understand the threat cyber criminals present to our personal data - stealing our identity and bank account information - we don't yet understand the threat we face from cyber terrorism, namely the ability of malware to take down a country's military or nuclear facility. Digital data & computer systems now drive the world's economy. Computers are everywhere - from controlling our water supply to our elevators. While governments are aware of the dangers of cyber crime & are working together to help prevent cyber criminals, the threat from cyber weapons are not yet widely understood. Part of Iran's nuclear facility was physically destroyed by a malware program last year, possibly by another government. Kaspersky's message is that we need to take this threat more seriously. He says that cyber terrorism is a boomerang - once you attack someone with a cyber weapon, they understand how to attack you back. We need global agreements against cyber weapons, just as we do on nuclear weapons.

Tsinghua University's Daniel Bell, Professor of Philosophy, speaks with Edie Lush at Hub Davos.

Daniel Bell tells Executive Editor Edie Lush that many people are attached to their cities more than their countries. Think of New Yorkers, who identify more with New York than with the US with t-shirts that say "I heart NY". He also says that the rise of 'civicism' - Bell and his co-author's invented term for the rise of urban pride - can be seen from the US to Europe to China. Bell also points out that Confucianism is experiencing a revival in China amongst some political reformers. Confucianism teaches that there is a duty to protect people who are voiceless, those future generations who will be affected by policies (like Climate Change) for example, and that liberal democracy lacks these characteristics.

MIT's Adéle Naudé Santos, Dean and Professor of Architecture speaks with Edie Lush at Hub Davos

Dean Santos discusses her concerns for rapid urban development and the future of urbanism. She's keenly concerned about the fact that we are building 'mega-cities' in India & China and that the pace of development is speeding up while environmental pressures are increasing. Meanwhile, people are only productive when they have a decent place to live, and we're not always building an environment that promotes this. In China, the high rise slab/apartment & tower sprawl that exists - single use (living only rather than mixed use - living/shopping/working) is incredibly destructive to the environment and unpleasant to live in. We need to be thinking now about the legacy we're leaving for the future.
