What Happens Next?
Catalonia's uncertain future; Sierra Leone after the mudslide; Ethiopia embraces industrialisation; Uzbekistan's Soviet-era bus shelters; reflections from a Macedonian nail bar.
Kate Adie introduces dispatches from James Reynolds in Barcelona who considers the political and psychological questions facing Catalans and Spaniards in the aftermath of the attacks; from Olivia Acland in Sierra Leone who finds extraordinary resilience among those affected by the recent mudslide; from Alastair Leithead in Addis Ababa who tours the shiny industrial future Ethiopia's leaders want to embrace but wonders if they will have to include political reforms in the mix too; from Simon Calder in Uzbekistan who pays tribute to a humble survivor of the Soviet era; and from Sara Wheeler who discovers the EU to be the unlikely hot topic of conversation when she visits her local nail bar in Macedonia.
