Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
Author: Barbara Mundy
This episode explores The Death of Aztec Tenochtitlan, the Life of Mexico City by Barbara Mundy as a systems-level analysis of how urban space, hydraulic infrastructure, and indigenous spatial practice influence behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.
