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
Interested in the British Political Landscape? Join John Bowers KC and Sir Vernon Bogdanor as they discuss ‘Making the Weather’, Sir Vernon’s latest book. Sir Vernon is a former professor of Politics and Government and an Emeritus Fellow of Brasenose College. ‘Making the Weather’ is a fascinating profile of six politicians who changed the political landscape of Britain. It will be a lively and informative evening. The event will be followed by a drinks reception.

He has written widely on government and politics, including books The People and the Party System, Monarchy and the Constitution, and Power and the People: A Guide to Constitutional Reform. Most recently, he has edited a book on The British Constitution in the Twentieth Century and written on The New British Constitution. He has been an adviser to government and parliamentary bodies on many occasions, and in 1998 was awarded the CBE for services to constitutional history. He is a Fellow of the British Academy.
