The Oxford Conservative Thought (OCT) Reading Group is a non-partisan group devoted to academic exploration of small-c conservative political thought. We welcome, and actively encourage, viewpoint diversity and constructive engagement across ideological divides (all good-willed participants are welcome!)
Each week we read one assigned text, and we recommend more for anyone who is very keen!
You can view our reading list here: docs.google.com/document/d/1-FnMPnWCQm3urAvD38jjRQkTEGA2EuSSjZjWm41Eszw/edit?usp=sharing
The OCT meets weekly in term time on Fridays from 4-5:30pm.
Week 2 focuses on the thought of Leo Strauss and his various schools of disciples, as well as their influence on conservatism and their critics.
Please register here to attend and we’ll send full details of the room!
