Abstract "By all accounts, 2020 was the longest year in recent memory, as people in the United States and across the globe careened from one unfolding catastrophe to another. This collection assembles a strikingly interdisciplinary group of scholars and thinkers to address how the many crises of 2020-epidemiological, political, ecological, and social-have unfolded, examining their origins and their ongoing effects"-- Provided by publisher.
