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
We have entered a new age of economic nationalism. Geopolitical tensions, supply chain vulnerabilities, and intensified technological competition are all sparking a departure from decades of free-market-oriented policies that dominated much of the neoliberal era starting in the 1980s.
Major superpowers are now more actively using industrial policy and protectionism in the name of national security. Political leaders increasingly tout “winning” the competition against economic rivals.
Join Dr Jostein Hauge, in conversation with Professor Emily Jones and Dr Amir Lebdioui, as he discusses this new age of economic nationalism and competition, focusing especially on the battle for industrial supremacy among three major superpowers — the United States, China and the European Union — and analyse the recent evolution of industrial policy in each region. The talk will also discuss the global economic ramifications of these geopolitical rivalries, in particular what the World of War means for the global South.
The event is followed by a drinks reception.
