Dr. W. George Lovell, Professor of Geography at Queens University in Ontario, Canada and Visiting Professor in Latin American History at the Universidad Pablo de Olavide in Seville, Spain, joins the American Geographical Society Podcast to discuss his research on epidemics in the Columbian-era Americas. We discuss Columbus’ arrival in the New World – and the impact of disease that came with him – marking the beginning of globalization…does COVID-19 mark the end?
The American Geographical Society has done several podcasts related to Covid-19 and Geography in general. To see others go to https://americangeo.org/the-american-geographical-society-podcast/.
