Saving Iranian women from Iranian men.
The article is part of a new collection - Cultural Landscapes of Energy - edited by @corinnegeering.bsky.social and Torsten Meyer.
I'm glad to be included along with great energy historians including my colleague, @leylasayf.bsky.social, who writes on oil and national identity in Azerbaijan.
Congratulations!
Our book is out today! π
"Cultural Landscapes of Energy" adds a historical perspective to current debates on energy transition by bringing together conflicting histories around work, habitation and leisure in landscapes impacted by energy production across Europe.
Great news! And thank you @corinnegeering.bsky.social for all your work on this!
