EXTRACTIVISM Lecture Series 22/23: 500 Years of Interdependence between Maghreb and Europe
09.02.2022 in Marburg: 500 years of interdependence between Maghreb and Europe (Prof. Dr. Rachid Ouaissa, Philipps-Universität Marburg).
From the series
Climate Change and Raw Materials: Risk or Opportunity?
Extractivism Lecture Series in the Winter Semester 2022/2023
It is already foreseeable that the global importance of raw materials will continue to increase in the coming years. Efforts to make the energy turnaround sustainable for the most part and thus to help shape climate change require that raw materials be given a special status. The desired energy turnaround for the purpose of sustainable climate policy will massively change the raw material basis of the world economy. This will not only mean deep transformation processes for the countries of the Global North, but will also have serious consequences for many countries of the South that depend on raw material exports. This challenges the existing structure of the international system and the global economy.
The lecture series will address this problem context and approach the issues first from the perspective of Latin America and the Maghreb. The contributions focus on the relationship between commodities and climate change from empirical, regional and/or theoretical perspectives. They will be linked by not only analyzing the risks of the relationship between commodities and climate change, but also illuminating possibilities and opportunities.
The lecture series will take place on Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. , alternating between Kassel and Marburg. To participate in the event online, you can register HERE.
