Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Aidan Forth, "Camps: A Global History of Mass Confinement" (U Toronto Press, 2024)
Q: Do you think we see camps everywhere, that they're ubiquitous but maybe have different justifications or different claimed purposes within different political systems?
Politics very much matters; modern political systems tend to produce camps, whether authoritarian or liberal democracies.
Aidan Forth, "Camps: A Global History of Mass Confinement" (U Toronto Press, 2024)
Q: Can you talk a bit about where you see the origins of camps being?
Camps exist almost everywhere by the mid 20th century and are a historical phenomenon linked to industrialization, changing practices of warfare, and new political strategies.
Dominic Davies and Candida Rifkind, "Graphic Refuge: Visuality and Mobility in Refugee Comics" (Wilfrid Laurier UP, 2025)
Q: Can you tell us a bit more about how you define what makes a refugee comic?
We broadly define refugee comics as comics by and about refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants, using a very expansive sense of refuge that encompasses more than just legal definitions.
Brendan Simms, "Hitler: A Global Biography" (Basic Books, 2019)
Q: How and when did Hitler become anti-Semitic?
His anti-Semitic views are linked to his thoughts on capitalism, particularly international capitalism, with evidence suggesting his views solidified in 1919.
Brendan Simms, "Hitler: A Global Biography" (Basic Books, 2019)
Q: Why a biography of Hitler? Why did you think this was the right time?
The aspects of Hitler's life, particularly the centrality of Anglo America, have not been fully recognized by previous scholars.
