On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Papers and speakers for this seminar will be: ‘Family Trees and Falling Apples: Intergenerational Mobility Estimates from U.S. Genealogy Data’ by Kasey Buckles (University of Notre Dame) with Joseph Price; ‘Who Benefits from Meritocracy?’ by Santiago Pérez (UC Davis) with Diana Moreira (UC Davis); ‘Offspring as Rents? Intergenerational Immobility in a Multi-ethnic Ruling Coalition of Medieval China’ by Erik Wang (Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse) with Joy Chen (Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business) & Xiaoming Zhang (HKU)
