Jared D. Larson
Politics
Dr. Larson recently contributed an essay, "A liberdade de morrer" (The Freedom to Die), to a project entitled "O Mundo desde Aquí: A pandemia da COVID-19" (The World from Here: The COVID-19 Pandemic). This series, financed by the municipal government of Pontevedra (Galicia), Spain, brought together writers from 23 countries to consider how COVID-19 has shaped their home societies and politics. Dr. Larson’s piece considers how the politicization of science and the truth jeopardizes public health, yet that this freedom to die is very much a part of our society in the U.S. The series can be found here:
