DESCRIPTION:Please join us as authors Fredrik Albritton Jonsson (Univ. of 
 Chicago) and Carl Wennerlind (Barnard College) discuss their new book  Sc
 arcity: A History From the Origins of Capitalism to the Climate Crisis.  
 Comments by Matthew Shutzer (Duke History) and Charlotte Sussman (Duke En
 glish).\n\nThe dominant conception of scarcity today holds that\, rather 
 than master our desires\, humans must master nature to meet those desires
 \; that we are innately possessed of infinite cravings\, and society must
  therefore facilitate endless growth and consumption\, irrespective of na
 ture's limits.\n\nAlbritton Jonsson and Wennerlind argue that this idea- 
 far from historically inevitable but nevertheless reflecting the costly t
 riumph of infinite-growth ideologies at the expense of traditions that so
 ught to live within nature's constraints- laid the groundwork for today's
  hegemonic politics of growth. Yet proponents of infinite growth have lon
 g faced resistance from agrarian radicals\, romantic poets\, revolutionar
 y socialists\, ecofeminists\, and others. These critics embraced concepti
 ons of scarcity in which our desires\, rather than nature\, must be maste
 red to achieve the social good. In so doing\, they dramatically reenvisio
 ned how humans might interact with both nature and the economy.\n\nFollow
 ing these conflicts into the twenty-first century\, Albritton Jonsson and
  Wennerlind insist that we need new\, sustainable models of economic thin
 king to address the climate crisis. Scarcity is not only a critique of in
 finite growth\, but also a timely invitation to imagine alternative ways 
 of flourishing on Earth.\n\nFredrik Albritton Jonsson is Associate Profes
 sor of History and of Conceptual and Historical Studies in Science at the
  University of Chicago. He is the author of Enlightenment's Frontier: The
  Scottish Highlands and the Origins of Environmentalism and\, with Vicky 
 Albritton\, Green Victorians: The Simple Life in John Ruskin's Lake Distr
 ict.\n\nCarl Wennerlind is Professor of History at Barnard College\, Colu
 mbia University\, where he specializes in intellectual history and politi
 cal economy. He is the author of Casualties of Credit: The English Financ
 ial Revolution\, 1620-1720 and\, with Margaret Schabas\, A Philosopher's 
 Economist: Hume and the Rise of Capitalism.
