Det ständiga fallet : Romarrikets fall som politisk resurs i samtiden.

Hammar, Isak LU orcid (2015) In Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift 117(3). p.451-468
Abstract
This article discusses the political use of the fall of the Roman empire and in particular the way this historical motif has been utilized in environmental debates and in US political culture. It is furthermore argued that the historiography of the fall of the Roman empire bears witness to the ideological and existential contexts of specific explanations to why Rome fell.
