Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Economic statecraft is often talked about, but relatively poorly understood; the topic finds itself somewhere in the somewhat awkward space between economics and international relations, and often also somewhere in between ‘war’ and ‘peace’. It is often too simplistically labelled as being a weak and ineffective substitute for ‘real’ action. In this seminar Maria will approach the topic from the perspective of complexity and influence, shedding light on how to analyse the strategic utility of economic statecraft in its appropriate context.
Maria de Goeij Reid is a senior associate at the Changing Character of War Centre at Oxford University. Before joining the CCW centre Maria led a team of intelligence analysts at TRSSI, a subsidiary of Thomson Reuters. She has been working as a consultant and advisor in both the public and private sector.
Her latest publication on the topic of complex adaptive systems and the analysis and influence of strategic behaviour be found here: press.armywarcollege.edu/parameters/vol53/iss4/14 . She is currently working on a book chapter about economic statecraft from the perspective of systemic influence.
Maria has a BA degree in European Studies from The Hague University and an MSc degree in Crisis and Security Management from Leiden University.
