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.
Join Dr Eisler in a discussion of Energy, Environment and Society, chaired by Dr Catherine M Jackson, Director of the Oxford Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology.
The conversation will be followed by a sandwich lunch.
This event has limited capacity and is open to registered participants only.
Dr Matthew N Eisler is Chancellor’s Fellow in History, University of Strathclyde, and author of Overpotential: Fuel Cells, Futurism, and the Making of a Power Panacea (Rutgers University Press, 2012) and Age of Auto Electric: Environment, Energy, and the Quest for the Sustainable Car (MIT Press, 2022). Dr Eisler’s research reveals how ideology and policy shape social relations and the biosphere. His current project Greenwork and Environmental Knowledge (funded by RWTH Aachen University) interrogates how environmental regulation co-produces labour, science, engineering, and business practices, developing his interdisciplinary approach to central themes of contemporary concern.
