Pandemics and Coloniality: Biopolitical Entanglements in Early Modern Chronicles and COVID-19 Narratives


This project's key question asks how structures of coloniality are inherent to COVID-19 narratives, and how their biopolitical mechanisms relate to early colonial accounts of disease. As a key result, the project will provide a rich set of qualitative scientific data on biopolitical entanglements between early modern and contemporary language of pandemics. The key impact will be a historic understanding on COVID-19's globalized, unequal knowledge-power, which further stimulates a transformation of the research field of early colonial illness.
