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.

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.
