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
Please join Dr. Adam Hanieh and moderator Dr Hashem Abushama, to discuss his new book, Crude Capitalism: Oil, Corporate Power, and the Making of the World Market. Hanieh traces oil’s central role in the rise of capitalism, exploring how corporate networks and state power embed fossil fuels deeply into modern life. Linking the environmental and political devastation caused by oil with struggles for decolonisation, his work calls for solidarity between the climate movement and the Palestinian liberation struggle, making a vital contribution to our understanding of global power and resistance.
This launch is co-hosted by the Ibrahim Lughod Centre for International Studies, Birzeit University and will be live-streamed in Arabic.
