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
Roundtable: How people keep democracy alive in Latin America
Part of the 2025-2026 series ‘How can we respond to this systemic crisis?’. A series of master classes, seminars, workshops and talks with Professor Laura Rival, research collaborators and colleagues.
Michaelmas Term series titled: ‘In Latin America, by greening the state at the top and from below’.
Chaired by: Andrès Gonzales Dinamarca (DPhil candidate, ISCA, University of Oxford).
With the participation of: Gwen Burnyeat (Edinburgh), Felipe Krause (Oxford), Maxine Molyneux (UCL), Patricia Oliart (Newcastle), and Gregory Thaler (Oxford)
Few topics have defined Latin America as a region more than democracy. The roundtable will discuss the ways in which political theorists, social scientists, intellectuals and activists assess Latin America’s democratic vision. What difference do deliberative and participatory processes make to the quality of democracy in the region?
Followed by refreshments.
