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: Crude Capitalism: Oil, Corporate Power, and the Making of the World Market
Registration required for this event. Please use the following teams form: https://forms.office.com/e/dWvYaufhV7
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.
