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
The 1990s are pivotal for understanding the mobilisation of the international system in the face of significant geopolitical upheaval and different types of global shock.
After the end of the Cold War, this decade marks the beginning of a quest for a new global order. New visions of global governance emerged, which were based on a redefinition of fundamental principles such as peace, security, sovereignty and the idea of responsibility. However, these developments were overshadowed by mass violence, ethnic cleansing, genocide and the failures of the international community to prevent them.
In his talk Professor Fabian Klose, Chair of International History and Historical Peace and Conflict Research at University of Cologne, will investigate the consequences these turbulent times had for the United Nations and how the world organisation reacted. He will explore the ambiguous role of the United Nations as a global actor responding to global shocks, in complex and often controversial circumstances.
