working on the history of Japan and Korea, seaweeds, nomads, peasants, and merchant capitalism.
My first article, which critiques the adapatation-resilience development paradigm by tracing its genealogy to prewar Japanese labor science and its influence on everything from austerity policies to anti-air conditioning, is now OA on cssh.

In Capital vol. 3, Marx writes that he wants to examine capitalism in its "idealen Durchschnitt." This is usually translated as "ideal average," but I believe a more accurate translation would be "ideal cross-section." I think this is a geological metaphor rather than a mathematical one. 1/5

I don't think we should gatekeep history to experts but is it too much to ask to do basic research on the history your article is engaging with before writing a comparative piece on it?

When we interviewed Bob Gurr on April 18, 2000, we asked if he would have liked his monorail design to be adopted in urban areas. Bob's response: "My truthful opinion of monorails is that they are really not very good."
