Oliver Dunnett is Lecturer in Human Geography at Queen’s University Belfast, specialising in cultural, historical and political geography. His research focuses on the ways in which the cultures and politics of outer space, science and technology are connected to questions of place, landscape and identity in a variety of local, regional and national contexts. His first book, Earth, Cosmos and Culture: Geographies of Outer Space in Britain, was published in 2023 as part of the Routledge research series in historical geography. He has published various journal articles and book chapters, examining topics such as the moral geographies of light pollution in Britain, the ethics of space exploration in the writings of C. S. Lewis and the geopolitics of outer space in the works of Arthur C. Clarke. He has further research interests in literary geographies, critical geopolitics and the geographies of popular culture, particularly the medium of comics and the genre of science fiction.
