Representation, Public Debt, and the Ends of History (Dr Michael Sonenscher)

What is the relationship between war and representation? Why can't we understand the French Revolution without thinking about the political management of public debt? And what does the future have to do with how we write history? These are some of the questions answered by Michael Sonenscher, Fellow of King's College, University of Cambridge. This episode's hosts: Michael Kretowicz & Charlotte Johann.
