OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

Is the “New World” little more than a totalizing, and even Eurocentric, label? José Moya discusses the diversity and gaps within the New World but also the shared traits that distinguish it from the rest of the world and impact the label with meaning as a valid historical category.
José Moya is professor of history and director of the Forum on Migration at Barnard College, Director of the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University and Professor Emeritus at UCLA.
