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
In a democracy, numbers matter. When numbers change, power changes hands. The democratic narrative insists that power changes hands primarily because voters change their minds. But it could also be because a sizeable group of new voters joins the polity and reshapes it. My lecture considers how the demographic anxiety and the fears that governments can use immigration as an instrument to elect their people can turn European societies against democracy.
