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.
This talk outlines a planned survey, to be fielded in 5 countries, which includes three experiments regarding education politics: a conjoint design examining how people perceive educational quality, a test of voters’ willingness to punish incumbents for poor educational performance, and an examination of the mechanisms that underpin support for educational expansion in higher education. In the talk I will focus mostly on the last design, looking to unpack the mechanisms that might explain growing backlash against higher education amongst some groups of voters.
