OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Social Metabolism and Valuation Disputes
The industrial economy is not circular. It is entropic, with an enormous “entropy hole” or “circularity gap” at its centre. This is the main cause of the conflicts at the frontiers of commodity extraction and waste disposal. We elicit the different social values displayed at such conflicts.
