The Aftermath: The 1931 China Floods

The Alarmist
About this episode

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca revisits the devastating 1931 Central China Floods with history professor Dr. Zhigou Ye. In her work, Dr. Ye touches on the transformation of China from an agricultural empire into a modernized society and the hazards that came along with that rush to industrialization. Especially when those efforts encounter a once in a lifetime environmental disaster. Afterward, Patreon subscribers can see if the initial verdict holds up in the post interview breakdown with Rebecca and Producer Clayton Early.
