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
Rethinking Economics are hosting economic historian Clara Mattei on Wednesday 16 November at 6pm in Balliol College Lecture Room 23 to discuss her new book ‘‘The Capital Order: How economists invented austerity and paved the way to fascism”, which discusses the role austerity plays in upholding class relations. She will be in discussion with historians Professors Richard Bosworth (Jesus College) and Avner Offer (All Souls) on the origins of austerity, whose interests austerity actually serve, and what lessons we can learn for politics today.
