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
Dr Bivar’s first book, Organic Resistance: The Struggle Over Industrial Farming in Postwar France, traces the transformation of the French agricultural sector from a backward also-ran into a global powerhouse, a process driven by modernising state policies in the wake of the Second World War that upended rural labour systems and the nation’s physical environment. Her current projects “Falling for Growth” and “Unsafe Harbour” examine the influence of economic thought on anthropogenic climate change and analyse the history of industrial pollution and port development in modern Marseille.
