Markus Kornprobst, Anne Line Dalsgård, and Kirsten Hastrup

This book explores the relationship between history, ethnography, and models in times of crisis. It brings together leading scholars from a range of disciplines to examine how these three approaches can be used to understand and respond to crises.

The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the relationship between history, ethnography, and models. The second part examines the use of these approaches in specific crises, including the 2008 financial crisis, the Ebola outbreak, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The third part explores the potential of these approaches for developing new ways of understanding and responding to crises.

This book is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and practitioners interested in the study of crises.
