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 Friday 21st February, the Women’s Studies Mst at the University of Oxford are pleased to invite you to panel discussion on Feminist Engagement with Women* in China. Joining us will be three guest speakers, Dr Maria Jaschok (Senior Research Associate of the Contemporary China Studies Programme, Oxford School of Global & Area Studies), Ling Tang (DPhil Candidate in Oriental Studies (Contemporary Chinese Studies)) and Yun Yun Zhou (DPhil Candidate in Oriental Studies (Contemporary Chinese Studies)). The panel will discuss their research on women in China, ranging from non-heterosexual family formations, to business women and the sexualised nature of guanxi, to cross-cultural research concerns regarding the privileging of knowledge, power and resources. The speakers will address their own positionalities as well as the methodological difficulties they have faced in their research.
