OxTalks is Changing
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.

The new politics of Poland
To join online, please register with Zoom.
A few years of populist rule fundamentally changes the politics of a country. The question is, does it change irrevocably? Not necessarily. In countries where populists have been successfully removed from power, as in Poland, there is theoretically a window of opportunity for a return to liberal democracy. In practice, however, this is extremely difficult, as the current government of Donald Tusk is discovering. The challenge is all the greater as the war in Ukraine and the crisis of democracy in Western countries affect the entire region.
Drawing on his book “The New Politics of Poland” (Suhrkamp, 2023), as well as the book “Posttraumatische Souveränität” (Suhrkamp, 2023), Dr Jarosław Kuisz will analyse the post-populist moment in Poland against the background of the country’s recent, but also medium and longer political history. With a comment by Dr Eli Gateva, the seminar will also examine similarities and differences with other countries in Central and Eastern Europe.
