(6 Sep 2023) Oxford University Press (OUP) is launching Oxford Intersections, a new resource combining original research from multiple academic disciplines centred on a complex global topic.
Launching in 2024, the first six Oxford Intersections initially under development are:
Racism by Context – AI in Society and Culture – Place and Space – Social Media – Borders – Food Security
The topics have been selected because of the critical role of interdisciplinary research in helping policy and decision-makers address the world’s most complex and urgent environmental, cultural, political, and psychological challenges, the solutions of which are beyond the scope of a single discipline or area of research.
Building on OUP’s capabilities as a digital publisher, Oxford Intersections will be hosted on Oxford Academic – the online platform for OUP’s academic research. The interdisciplinary resource will sit alongside more than 40,000 books and 500 journals, significantly increasing the discoverability and user engagement of the research content.
