OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Book Launch: Saving a Rainforest and Losing the World: Conservation and Displacement in the Global Tropics
Gregory M. Thaler is an Associate Professor of Environmental Geography and Latin American Studies in the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies and the School of Geography and the Environment. His research examines the political ecology and political economy of development, global environmental governance, and agrarian politics. His new book draws on six years of research on agrarian frontiers in Indonesia, Brazil, and Bolivia to reveal the ecological destruction behind global attempts to reconcile industrial agriculture with forest conservation.
