Читать книгу New Pandemics, Old Politics - Alex de Waal - Страница 6

This book began life as a compilation of reflections provisionally entitled ‘Critical Thinking in a Pandemic’, which became an essay in the 3 April 2020 online issue of Boston Review, entitled ‘New Pathogen, Old Politics’ (http://bostonreview.net/science-nature/alex-de-waal-new-patho-gen-old-politics). The Boston Review editors, Deb Chasman and Matt Lord, were indulgent, encouraging, and usefully critical. I have drawn on comments and critique from colleagues, students, and former students, including Lisa Avery, Bridget Conley, Sarah Detzner, Ella Duncan, Sulmaan Khan, Jared Miller, Aditya Sarkar, and Ben Spatz, as well as Louise Knight and Inès Boxman at Polity Press and anonymous reviewers.
