1 Meier has been famously accused of evading a working definition of the term, as Golden, G.K. describes: crisis is a ‘hazy term, readily applied’ and, importantly, ‘a matter of perspective’ in Crisis Management during the Roman Republic: the Role of Political Institutions in Emergencies (2013), p. 1CrossRefGoogle Scholar. On crisis as ‘a matter of perspective’ see, for just one example, Whyte, K., ‘Indigenous Science (Fiction) for the Anthropocene: Ancestral Dystopias and Fantasies of Climate Change Crises’, Envion. Plann. E 1 (2018), 224–42Google Scholar.
