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.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Zeitenwende? Europe between Putin, Trump and Xi
In this timely lecture, Professor Timothy Garton Ash examines the pivotal moment Europe faces amid shifting global dynamics. He explores how Vladimir Putin’s aggression, Donald Trump’s challenges to transatlantic alliances, and Xi Jinping’s assertive policies compel Europe to reassess its role on the world stage. Garton Ash delves into the concept of “Zeitenwende”, a turning point, highlighting the urgency for Europe to navigate these complex geopolitical landscapes and redefine its strategic direction.
Professor Timothy Garton Ash is a renowned British historian and commentator, specializing in contemporary European history. He serves as Professor of European Studies at the University of Oxford and is a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. Garton Ash has authored numerous influential books, including The Magic Lantern and Free World, and the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen (oldest and best-known prize awarded for work done in the service of European unification) in 2017. His work focuses on the transformation of Europe, the challenges of liberal democracy, and the interplay between history and current affairs.
