OxTalks is Changing
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.
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.
