OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all 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 as soon as possible.

The Carlyle Lectures - Constitutions before Constitutionalism: Classical Greek Ideas of Office and Rule (Lecture Five)
Lecture Five: Office and Rule in Constitutional Change
The four imperfect constitutions of Republic VIII are the topic of this lecture, in which the role of officeholders or magistrates is argued to be central to the ways in which these imperfect constitutions come about, operate, and change into one another. Studying these episodes of change reveals aspects of the normative dimension of political office both within their flawed operation and in contrast with it.
The Carlyle Lectures are a lecture series co-sponsored by the Department of Politics and International Relations and the Faculty of History.
