Cogito 13

Recent months have taught us the importance of the formation of choices and the acceptance of political decisions. Two original approaches are applied here to these topics. Another noteworthy challenge is raised by the health issues that our researchers examine from various perspectives:  the history of epidemics, professional illnesses, Obamacare and the links between fertility and growth. Finally, the trajectories and impacts of innovations are also investigated; how international organisations deal with racism; the origins of child welfare services and the radical renewal of the histories of law. We hope you enjoy your read!
