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
On the anniversary of the death of Francisco Franco, this seminar aims to critically examine the Spanish transition to democracy, moving beyond traditional narratives to address dimensions of the process that are sometimes overlooked. While the transition has been widely studied as a model of political change, it is essential to reassess its complexities, including the role and experience of women, the regional disparities in its development, and the persistence of violence that accompanied it. By bringing together scholars from different backgrounds, this event aims to foster a discussion of the challenges, contradictions and legacies of the transition, ensuring a more comprehensive understanding of this key period in Spanish history.
