Speaker: Larry L. Welborn Professor of Early Christianity, Fordham University, New York Professor of Ancient History, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia Many of the conflicts around the world today are gen-erational in character. The so-called "Arab Spring" began as an uprising among the youth in Tunisia; the protesters in Madrid's Buen Retiro Park took the name "los indignados" to express their outrage at an unem-ployment rate among youth in excess of 40 percent; the persons who were re-cently arrested in anti corruption protests in Russian cities were mainly young people; the "Umbrella Revolution" in Hong Kong is a pro-democracy demon-stration by the young. Episodes of generational conflict in antiquity--in demo-cratic Athens and republican Rome--have lessons to teach about the tensions and challenges of our present moment.
