Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Modern capitalism has taken a surprising turn toward an unprecedented logic of accumulation: ‘surveillance capitalism’.
It features unexpected and often illegible mechanisms of extraction, commodification, and control that effectively exile persons from their own behaviour. Surveillance capitalism challenges democratic norms and departs in key ways from the centuries-long evolution of market capitalism.
Where does surveillance capitalism come from, and where is it going? What makes surveillance capitalists rich? Will surveillance capitalism be the dominant logic of accumulation in our time or an evolutionary dead-end in capitalism’s longer journey?
These questions initiate an urgent conversation. It’s time to begin.
Registration is essential. Please reserve your place by emailing: events@gtc.ox.ac.uk.
