Prof Swyngedouw has a long-standing interest in understanding the political, economic, and environmental dynamics of capitalism and the social forces and practices that aim at its transformation towards a more genuinely humanising geography with a particular
interest in the relationship between urbanisation and the environmental transformation.
Prof Swyngedouw was previously professor of geography at Oxford University and held the Vincent Wright Visiting Professorship at Science Po, Paris, 2014.
