Félicitations! Au plaisir d'en discuter le mois prochain au CHSP @sciencespo.bsky.social

On the international dimension specifically, Nicolas Delalande's Struggle and Mutual Aid: otherpress.com/product/stru...

Several great suggestions in the thread, to which I'd definitely add A.Horowitz's outstanding book Katrina. For a case coeval to the 1906 disaster but outside the US, I humbly suggest considering the 1st part of my book, Fault Lines, on the 1908 Messina earthquake. Happy to send a PDF if interested.

Tastes Like Chicken by Emelyn Rude should fit the bill: www.emelynrude.com/tastes-like-...

Félicitations Elsa!!! 🥳

Congratulations, it looks great! I just ordered a copy for our library

And there is undoubtedly something to be said about plastics and psychedelics ("cellophane flowers of yellow and green").

I recommend reading Primo Levi's concluding story in The Periodic Table, if you haven't already. It's all about the worldly travels of a carbon molecule...Rebecca Altman knows it (and likes it, if I remember well).

Andy Horowitz, Katrina is as much a history of NOLA as it is a history of disaster, and it stands out IMO. And as NOLA is a good city to think with, I highly recommend Colten's Unnatural Metropolis, which to me models how to foreground the physical environment in urban history.

Might be. I haven’t had the chance to teach to 1st year students abt the Anthropocene in a while

Maybe a generational effect (meaning that it’s fading in public debates)? It definitely wasn’t the case at Sciences Po until five years ago, my students knew the term

What I know already on my end in pol sci/IR is the hydropolitics literature (Waterbury) and the watershed governance lit (which has a critical twin in political ecology).

I am starting to think the existence of a river historiography is quite the exception.
