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
MEC Boardroom is in the Kirdar Building, 68 Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6DU – on the ground floor at the bottom of the main staircase.
One of the longest-in-the-making and the oldest among Muslim countries, the Ottoman-Iranian frontier, from 1514 to 1914, underwent four centuries of evolution to reach its final form. At present, the modern states of Iran, Iraq, and Turkey share these boundaries that emerged from the conflation of numerous borders. In this talk, Sabri Ateş will examine the emergence and transformation of religious-ideological, geopolitical, and medical borders.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions.
Dr Zeinab Azarbadegan (University of Oxford) will chair.
