Pandemia ist ein Wissenschaftspodcast von Laura Salm-Reifferscheidt und Kai Kupferschmidt. Wir erzählen die großen und kleinen Geschichten rund um Epidemien, Impfstoffe und globale Gesundheit und fragen, was sie uns über Wissenschaft, Politik und Gesellschaft verraten. Im Zentrum stehen Recherche, Gespräche mit Forschenden und Betroffenen und der Blick hinter die Kulissen: Wie entsteht gesichertes Wissen? Wo liegen Unsicherheiten?

When the local iron mine began hiring women in 1975, Lois Jenson, a single mother on welfare, didn't think twice about accepting the grueling but well-paid job. What she hadn't considered was that she was entering a male-dominated society that fiercely resisted the inclusion of women, a prejudice born out in the brutal harassment of every female miner.

October 1917, heralded as the culmination of the Russian Revolution, remains a defining moment in world history. Even a hundred years after the events that led to the emergence of the world's first self-proclaimed socialist state, debate continues over whether, as historian E. H. Carr put it decades ago, these earth-shaking days were a "landmark in the emancipation of mankind from past oppression" or "a crime and a disaster." 

Only the Clothes on Her Back uncovers practices, commonly known then, but now long forgotten, which made textiles - clothing, cloth, bedding, and accessories, such as shoes and hats - a unique form of property that people without rights could own and exchange. The value of textiles depended on law, and it was law that turned these goods into a secure form of property for marginalized people, who not only used these textiles as currency, credit, and capital, but also as entree into the new republic's economy and governing institutions. 

Rusland zit vast in een archaïsche machtsstructuur. De politiek in het Kremlin heeft heimwee naar de oude machtspositie uit de tijd van het communistische regime.

Hoe ziet zijn “Russische wereld” eruit en wat betekent zijn politiek voor de toekomst van Rusland en van landen in zijn invloedssfeer, zoals Oekraïne? Zijn wij getuige van de fantoompijn van een uiteengevallen imperium of van een opmars naar een nieuwe hegemonie?
