This episode is centered around the notion of 'crisis,' featuring moments of intensity that prompt change. We'll be chatting with Karena Kalmbach, author of The Meanings of a Disaster: Chernobyl and Its Afterlives in Britain and France, Mark Schuller, editor of the Catastrophes in Context series, and Jean-Paul Gagnon, editor of the Berghahn Journal Democratic Theory.

We will also share instructions on how to enter for the chance to win a $100 gift card to Blackwell's Bookstore, "an Oxford family bookshop."
