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
This paper will explore the interplay between war and the environment in Henan Province, a hotly contested territory that endured massive ecological and human destruction as part of China’s conflict with Japan during World War II, revealing how efforts to procure and exploit nature’s energies in various forms shaped the choices of generals, the fates of communities, and the trajectory of environmental change in this part of North China.
