(We were planning to be able to telegraph the announcement more this week, but "baby death panel" had other plans, and came early!). While we're away, we'll still have episodes in the feed, like today's episode; a mix of some old favorites we haven't revisited in a while and some unlocks. We'll be back as soon as it's safe and reasonable for us to do so, because with everything going on right now we want to make sure we're here for everyone. We also want to thank each and every one of you, because without support from our patrons it wouldn't be possible for us to take this kind of time. So if you can, now is a great time to support the show at patreon.com/deathpanelpod — either by becoming a patron or increasing your membership. Original episode description: In today's episode, Beatrice and Phil speak with Nate Holdren about his book Injury Impoverished: Workplace Accidents, Capitalism, and Law in the Progressive Era, the history of worker's compensation reforms, and the tensions surrounding disablement and the working class.

in this episode I read, in part (with a digression mid-way on Dickens' A Christmas Carol and more), the transcript of Unlimited Liabilities (July 31, 2023) with Nate Holdren from the Death Panel podcast co-hosted by Beatrice Adler-Bolton and Artie Vierkant. This episode is not meant to mimic their podcast but is a dramatic interpretation - my reading of the transcript itself - as experiment in performance.

Earlier this month we collaborated with the organizers the Socialism Conference to put together five sessions at this year's conference on the political economy of health and disability. Each of these sessions is live now for patrons, and we'll be posting one a day in the main feed, all week. In this session, "How Capitalism Kills: Social Murder and Covid-19," Artie, Abby, and Nate Holdren discuss Friedrich Engels' concept of “social murder,” the structural forces within capitalism that abandon populations to injury, debility, and premature death, and how social murder is a key component of capitalism, not merely a side effect.

This is a segment of episode 347 of Last Born In The Wilderness, “Broken Sociality: Isolation, Social Murder, & The Process Of Depoliticization w/ Nate Holdren." Listen to the full episode: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/nate-holdren Read ‘Broken Sociality: Isolation in the Pseudo-Return to “Pre-Pandemic Normal”' at Peste Magazine: https://www.pestemag.com/lost-to-follow-up/broken-sociality Legal historian and author Nate Holdren joins me to discuss broken sociality, political and social loneliness, and social murder and its depoliticization during the pandemic, as elucidated in his Peste Magazine essay ‘Broken Sociality: Isolation in the Pseudo-Return to “Pre-Pandemic Normal”'. The pandemic emergency has been declared over, both here in the United States, and by the World Health Organization. That does not mean the pandemic is over, but it marks an official end to an emergency level institutional response to it. Any sort of practical and enforceable mitigatory practices to reduce the spread of the virus has been firmly relegated to the past. To add insult to injury, the trauma or discomforts incurred over the past three years are often blamed on these public health measures themselves by high-status conservative and liberal commentators and so-called experts alike. Nevermind the millions dead, the global vaccine apartheid, the tens of millions disabled and those that continue to become disabled, and what those facts mean. The virus's plethora of variants will continue to infect and reinfect the global population into the foreseeable future—a slow burn with grim long-term consequences. When I read Nate Holdren's essay on broken sociality and political and social loneliness as the “urgency of normal” takes precedence in the US, it struck a chord within me. He provided a language to describe my feelings and experiences at this stage of the ongoing pandemic. For those of us still masking and avoiding the plague, still keeping up on covid research to the best of our ability, and still admonishing our peers to be mindful of how our behaviors and decisions impact all of us, especially for the most vulnerable, oftentimes a gulf can and does emerge and deepen between our relationships with others that disregard these considerations. When an intrinsically collective health crisis is minimized, and in many cases, outrightly denied by our peers, day-to-day life becomes a lonely affair. Nate Holdren is a legal historian of capitalism in the United States. He is the author of the book ‘Injury Impoverished: Workplace Accidents, Capitalism, and Law in the Progressive Era' and teaches in the Program in Law, Politics, and Society at Drake University.

This week we were honored to be joined by Nate Holdren, professor at Drake University and author of the recent book Injury Impoverished: Workplace Accidents, Capitalism, and Law in the Progressive Era.  In the book, Nate chronicles the shift in the way workplace injury is handled in the US from liability trials to workers compensation. We discuss the dehumanizing aspects of both systems and the ideology used to justify the devaluing of working class life. We also discuss Nate's work on Engels' concept of Social Murder, and how that concept is so applicable to the way modern capitalist society chews up and spits out working class people in the pursuit of profit.

As the workers, employers, and reformers attempted to tackle the drastically high rates of workplace injuries and deaths, the nation passed a number of compensation laws that fundamentally changed how the law approached workplace injuries. Holdren, in examining this history illustrates the many shortcomings of these laws, and how laws meant to help employees were often used to do the exact opposite. At the heart of Holdren's study is whether or not the economy and the legal system was interested in and able to do justice for a workers. Dr. Holdren is an Assistant Professor at Drake University.

Nate Holdren is the author of Injury Impoverished: Workplace Accidents, Capitalism, and Law in the Progressive Era, published by Cambridge University Press in 2020. Injury Impoverished looks at the history of U.S. workplace injuries in the late-19th and early-20th Centuries. As the workers, employers, and reformers attempted to tackle the drastically high rates of workplace injuries and deaths, the nation passed a number of compensation laws that fundamentally changed how the law approached workplace injuries. Holdren, in examining this history illustrates the many shortcomings of these laws, and how laws meant to help employees were often used to do the exact opposite. At the heart of Holdren's study is whether or not the economy and the legal system was interested in and able to do justice for a workers. Dr. Holdren is an Assistant Professor at Drake University. Derek Litvak is a PhD candidate at the University of Maryland—College Park. His dissertation, "The Specter of Black Citizens: Race, Slavery, and Citizenship in the Early United States," examines how citizenship was used to both bolster the institution of slavery and exclude Black Americans from the body politic.
