Congratulations to History Professor Bart Elmore who has been named a 2017 New America fellow! He “will work on his book ‘Seed Money: How the Monsanto Company’s Quest for Power Remade Our World,’ which will offer the first global environmental history of the St. Louis firm, tracing Monsanto’s astounding evolution from making DDT to manipulating DNA, and use the firm to assess the future environmental sustainability of corporate capitalism.”
