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
Join us for an in-depth discussion with Dr Karam Shaar, a leading political economist and Chief Economic Consultant to the Office of the UN Resident Coordinator in Syria, as we examine the country’s political economy beyond the Assad era.
The conversation will explore Syria’s emerging economic philosophy — spanning fiscal, monetary, investment, and privatisation policies — and consider how political forces, capital, and society interact in redefining the state’s role. It will also explore the influence of the international community and regional dynamics in shaping the new political and economic order.
This event is moderated by: Jad Baghdadi, PhD Candidate at ODID researching state–capital relations
