Infrastructure, Public Policy, and the Anthropocene - Episode 88 - The Oxford Comment by Oxford Academic (OUP) published on 2023-10-20T12:05:17Z On today’s episode of The Oxford Comment, we discuss the state of human infrastructure in the Anthropocene with a particular focus on how research can best be used to inform public policy. First, we welcomed Patrick Harris, co-editor-in-chief of the new transdisciplinary journal, Oxford Open Infrastructure and Health, to speak about the aims and scopes of OOIH, how OOIH is poised to meet the challenges of the Anthropocene, and the kind of research the editors are seeking. We then interviewed Jonathan Pickering, co-author of The Politics of the Anthropocene, the winner of the 2019 Clay Morgan Award Committee for Best Book in Environmental Political Theory. We spoke with him about how the shift from the Holocene to the Anthropocene has affected our core infrastructure systems and how good governance can help us mitigate the many challenges we’ll face in the future For more information on "Oxford Open Health and Infrastructure," check out: https://academic.oup.com/ooih For more information on "The Politics of the Anthropocene," check out: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-politics-of-the-anthropocene-9780198809623 A PDF transcript for this episode can be found here: https://oxfordacademic.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/The-Oxford-Comment-Episode-88-transcript.pdf Please subscribe to The Oxford Comment through your favourite podcast app to listen to the latest insights from our expert authors: - Amazon Music: https://oxford.ly/3O8bPBH - Apple Podcasts: https://oxford.ly/2RuYMPa - Google Podcasts: https://oxford.ly/38UpF5h - iHeartRadio: https://oxford.ly/3xBtxaQ - Spotify: https://oxford.ly/2JLNTTO - Stitcher: https://oxford.ly/2R0fVNZ - TuneIn: https://oxford.ly/3jKR0OG - YouTube: https://oxford.ly/2YY4iMT The Oxford Comment Crew: Executive Producer: Steven Filippi Associate Producers: Ed Aymar, Meghan Schaffer Host: Meghan Schaffer Music: Filaments by Podington Bear is licensed under an Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 International License. © Oxford University Press Genre Learning Comment by George Hart I'm excited to find this issue. But as for me more illustrations on the theme of infrastructure https://depositphotos.com/vectors/infrastructure.html could be added here to make it more attractive. I'm sure it will become more interesting. 2023-12-16T14:26:51Z
