OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
For more a century, Northeast Asia has been one of the world’s most dangerous places, where wars have repeatedly broken out between Japan, Russia, the United States, the two Koreas, and several regimes in China. What, then, should we expect from Biden’s successor coming into office in 2025?
Join Oxford International Relations Society for fascinating panel discussion featuring John Everard, the UK’s ambassador to North Korea from 2006 to 2008, Dr Edward Howell (Oxford), and Prof John Nilsson-Wright (Cambridge) focusing on tensions and crises in Northeast Asia after the 2024 US Presidential Election. Will the “hermit kingdom” of North Korea intensify its delinquent nuclear behavior? How will US regional allies such as South Korea and Japan deal with challenges posed by increasingly assertive authoritarian states such as Russia and China? Finally, how do human rights abuses fit into the picture?
Organised by Oxford International Relations Society, this event is supported by the generousity of the Ministry of Unification, an executive department of the South Korean government aimed at promoting Korean reunification.
