Politics
Dr. Larson recently contributed an essay, "A liberdade de morrer" (The Freedom to Die), to a project entitled "O Mundo desde Aquí: A pandemia da COVID-19" (The World from Here: The COVID-19 Pandemic). This series, financed by the municipal government of Pontevedra (Galicia), Spain, brought together writers from 23 countries to consider how COVID-19 has shaped their home societies and politics.
