Ben Stemper

Short presentation

I am a PhD student at the Department of History of Science and Ideas. My research centres on the relationship between science, technology, and the environment in 19th-century u/dystopias.

I am interested more broadly in the history of anarchism, socialism, and u/dystopias in the nineteenth century, and especially in the works of French anarchist Joseph Déjacque.
