Apocalypse 2.0

War, climate crises, pandemics, collapsing empires — history has seen these constellations before.
In Apocalypse 2.0, historian José Miguel Garcia León looks back at the turbulent centuries between Justinian I and the Abbasid Caliphate: an age marked by plague, migration, climate shocks, and geopolitical upheaval.
At a time when new wars are breaking out and global instability is once again reshaping the world, this essay reminds us that civilizations have faced similar cycles of catastrophe before — and that understanding them may be crucial if we want to avoid repeating them.
A powerful historical perspective on crisis, collapse, and the fragile resilience of societies.
