OxTalks is Changing
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
Is the EU a civilisational project? Does being European mean being white?
Hans Kundnani writes: “Historically, being European meant being white. After World War II, a new European identity emerged around the European Union, but it too had a civilising mission and was based on forgetting the history of European colonialism and its relationship with European integration. More recently, as ‘pro-Europeans’ have become more defensive, there has been a civilisational turn in the European project.”
This online event will be chaired by Timothy Garton Ash (St Antony’s College, Oxford), with initial responses from the 2021 Dahrendorf Scholars Iyone Agboraw, Laura Ballerini and David Saveliev.
