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
China’s Generation Y, born in the 1980s and 1990s, is an important cohort group in Chinese society. Based on a large-scale survey in Shanghai, China, this study delves into the characteristics of value confiscation and identification, indicating that Chinese Generation Y was born in a time of great change, high mobility and quick digitization, giving them a prolonged youth period, diverse trajectories, and multiple chances. The study shows that Generation Y has values different from western youth, where post-materialism coexist among them.
