Discover the latest Oxford Intersections
Our first available topics, each with over 40 articles and researched through the lens of disciplines like political science, philosophy, law, history, and literature, include:
Newly launched: Borders
Borders aren’t fixed lines. They’re living forces that shape cultures, politics, and connections far beyond geography. This Intersection explores how borders influence systems, relationships, and practices worldwide, and what it means to live in a world defined by them.
Social Media in Society and Culture
This Intersection explores the positive and negative impacts of social media, and highlights their cultural differences across the globe. It engages with questions around privacy, regulation, and misinformation, as well as D&I issues, especially those concerning access and literacy, mode of communication, and representation.
AI in Society
This topic brings together scholarly research which explores how AI has transformed (and continues to transform) the world we live in, both positively and negatively, and the challenges and debates it brings along with it.
Racism by Context
Forthcoming topics
Further topics are in development, due to launch across 2026, including Environmental Change and Human Experience, and Gender Justice, with over 30 more to follow in the coming years.
This topic explores the layered and multidimensional nature of racism through ten linked sections, each of which focuses on racism in a particular sphere (such as politics and government, labour and economy, education, the arts, and health and welfare), with each distinct but overlapping in scope with others.
