On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk

Her dissertation, published as Reclamos y representaciones Variaciones sobre la política en el Nuevo Reino de Granada 1770-1815, studied the participation of different social groups in public life, their notions of authority and common good, and their sense of belonging and identity. Her more recent work has been about processes of pacification of colonial rebellions and of nineteenth century civil wars. She is professor at Universidad de los Andes and member of the CEHIS (Centro de Estudios en Historia), at Universidad Externado de Colombia, Bogotá.
