Not a debate, nor a documentary, but as interesrting if not more, I also recommend Le Dessous des Cartes presented by Jean-Christophe Victor on ARTE. It could be described as a pedagogic programme on geopolitics.

Amazing how the use of words common in French can make you look clever in English, huh ? :bluush:

"C'dans l'air"

Channel : France5 (La Cinquième)
Day : Monday to Friday
Time : 17:45
Type : cultural, social and political happenings
Moderator : Yves Calvi

"C dans l'air" deciphers the subjects making the headlines in the newspapers. On the set, guests and journalists analyse the major events of the moment as well as the subjects causing debate, and allow us to better understand the social, political and cultural events punctuating our daily lives.
