His teaching is informed by research interests that circle and intersect the history of economic thought, debates on value, rent and price, the historical evolution of landed property, extractivism, regenerative agriculture, and the political economy of capitalism in Australia and the world. Joe's current research explores the potential for interlocking just transitions across the systems of provision for housing, education, transport, work and healthcare in regional communities.
