Lorraine Daston, Director Emerita, Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, is featured in Ideas Roadshow’s documentary film PANDEMIC PERSPECTIVES (2022).
This film provides a thoughtful window into a spectrum of key societal issues illuminated by the COVID-19 Pandemic through the prism of 32 international experts in biology, education, history, law, philosophy, politics, psychology, and more. All participants were filmed remotely at the height of the pandemic using local film crews during the second half of 2021.
As part of the Pandemic Perspectives Project, we also recorded a detailed podcast conversation with Lorraine Daston, History, Morality and the Pandemic, which is available on Ideas Roadshow’s Podcast channel.
