On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
‘I examine the effects of intergenerational social mobility on political (dis)content in Britain through 3 connected papers. First, using a conjoint experiment, I analyse what exactly voters perceive as economically successful outcomes, including social mobility’s role within that. The experimental design allows me to interpret how the public trade-off these attributes. For example, how the British public trade-off social mobility against poverty, earnings inequality, growth, inflation, and unemployment rates. Second, I show how intergenerationally mobile voters’ positions in the Brexit referendum differ from their non-mobile counterparts. Third, beyond one’s own mobility, I investigate how historic levels of social mobility in one’s local area influences political attitudes and voting behaviour.’
Booking is required for people outside of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention (DSPI).
DSPI Members do not need to register.
