REVIEW OF THE YEAR 1970
''.......a year like any other, of natural calamities, but a year in which those calamities were of awful proportions: a year like any year, of wars and killing, but a year in which political violence assumed unfamiliar and frightening shapes: the hijacking, the kidnapping, the assassination, not of great heads of state, but the humbler men, murdered almost at random, like cards thrown out of a pack.''

ANTHONY KING, Professor of Government at the University of Essex, gives the assessment of a contemporary historian and looks back with the voices of:- (those shown above.)

The content of this record is taken in its entirety from the Radio 4 End of Year programme broadcast on December 29th 1970. The inserts were drawn from BBC Libraries and represent the work of many BBC radio and television programmes. The 1970 Review and this record were produced by Elizabeth Smith of General Current Affairs Dept. (Radio).
