OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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.
