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
This seminar by Dr Mohammad Fadel explores the intersections between the Islamic tradition of reflection on justice and the modern liberal tradition. Can and should committed Muslims endorse liberalism as a governing philosophy, or as a modus vivendi, and what are the implications for both faith communities and wider society of either approach? Dr Fadel’s work on Islam and public reason has set a research agenda for these questions, and we look forward to hearing from him in a lively and interactive seminar.
