Pandemics and the politics of difference: rewriting the history of internationalism through nineteenth-century cholera
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
This historical analysis uses 19th-century cholera epidemics to highlight how pandemics expose and exacerbate existing social inequalities and political hierarchies. International responses to cholera, while framed as cooperative, often prioritized the interests of powerful nations and empires, particularly European powers, at the expense of others, especially those in the Ottoman empire.

Explicación de la calificación
This is a strong historical analysis exploring the interplay of pandemics, politics, and social inequalities. The research is well-grounded in historical sources, and the arguments presented are compelling. However, the lack of quantitative methods, limited generalizability, and insufficient engagement with counterarguments slightly detract from the overall strength of the study.
