Historian at the University of Chicago. Co-editor of The Journal of Modern History. New book: Scarcity with Carl Wennerlind (Harvard 2023). Next: Britain's fossil transition 1760-1870 and, with Moritz von Brescius, The Long Acceleration 1500-1950.
With @mbrescius.bsky.social I am very happy to announce the launch of a major new project in #Anthropocene history. The Long Acceleration brings together more than 20 scholars to consider the planetary emergency. Many thanks to Moritz and the Institute for European Global Studies for hosting us.

Carl Wennerlind and I wrote a book about the role of neoclassical economics in producing the climate crisis. This week we had a chance to test out our argument with a brilliant group of undergraduates in Bologna. Warm thanks to all of them and to Michele Alacevich for hosting us. 📗

Warmly recommended: in a major new book, Maxine Berg and Pat Hudson revive and expand the Williams thesis about the links between The Atlantic plantation economy and Britain's industrial revolution. For a sneak preview, listen to Pat and Maxine here:
