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
In conversation with Jonathan Cross, global historian Peter Frankopan discusses his latest book and the issues arising from it. The ways in which we have used, exploited and adapted the earth has brought enormous benefits – but has often come at a cost. As we face a precarious future, learning lessons from the past has never been more important.
Peter Frankopan is Professor of Global History and Senior Research Fellow at Worcester College. He is author of The Silk Roads: A New History of the World.
