Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper mobilizes a transnational approach to intervene in the unfolding history of the Covid-19 pandemic, advocating for nationally based, interdependent initiatives that push back against the fragmentation of national responses and, eventually, national protectionism. Focusing on the governance of digital technologies for data sharing, and using two case studies as illustrations, we describe the emergence of transnational realms of scientific and political cooperation, that were structured to foster interdependence, to bypass insular nationalism, and to subvert digital feudalism. By critically reading these case studies through the lens of the transnational flows of knowledge across borders, we exploit the intellectual and political agendas embedded in this historiographic approach.

动员知识流动的跨国历史。2019冠状病毒病与边境研究政治

本文动员了一种跨国方法来干预Covid-19大流行的发展历史，倡导以国家为基础的、相互依存的举措，以抵制国家应对措施的碎片化，并最终抵制国家保护主义。我们关注数据共享的数字技术治理，并使用两个案例研究作为例证，描述了科学和政治合作的跨国领域的出现，这些领域的结构旨在促进相互依存，绕过孤立的民族主义，并颠覆数字封建主义。通过批判性地阅读这些案例研究，通过跨国界知识的跨国流动，我们利用嵌入在这种史学方法中的知识和政治议程。

期刊介绍： History and Technology serves as an international forum for research on technology in history. A guiding premise is that technology—as knowledge, practice, and material resource—has been a key site for constituting the human experience. In the modern era, it becomes central to our understanding of the making and transformation of societies and cultures, on a local or transnational scale. The journal welcomes historical contributions on any aspect of technology but encourages research that addresses this wider frame through commensurate analytic and critical approaches.
