What They're Saying
Critics Review
“The pandemic is not a page we have turned. It is a force still reshaping our health, politics, and deepest assumptions about what we owe one another. With roots in the Social Science Research Council’s ‘Covid-19 and the Social Sciences’ platform and the question we posed there—what is ‘society after pandemic’?—this remarkable collection is a resounding reply and an indispensable archive of a transformative and still-unfolding moment.” - Alondra Nelson, Institute for Advanced Study
