On this episode of the Intervention podcast, Prof. Timothy Mitchell of Columbia University discusses some of the major themes of his extensive work, in the Middle East and elsewhere, on energy and environmental history, political economy and colonialism. These themes were encapsulated in his landmark 2011 book Carbon Democracy: Political Power in the Age of Oil and reflected in his 2024 Stockholm Archipelago Lecture “On Rivercide: The Colonial Origins of Creative Destruction”. Prof. Mitchell sat down with EHL Director Rob Gioielli in December 2024 while in Stockholm to deliver the 13th Archipelago Lecture, the annual flagship event of the Environmental Humanities Laboratory at KTH Royal Institute of Technology.
