MAY DAY SPECIAL: An alternate history of social democracy w/Autumn Chen

May 1, 2024
25:34

In honor of International Worker's Day, this episode features Autumn Chen, designer of the online game "Social Democracy: an Alternate History" to discuss how the late Weimar period could have gone differently--perhaps ending in an SPD or even KPD-led government. She and Ted explore this period through the lens of the game and also talk about the role of computer games in history education more broadly.

Thanks to all the Patreon patrons for making this May Day special episode possible. Stay safe out there and happy May Day!
