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
This event will look at the military situation unfolding in Ukraine—how the invasion has developed, and what we know now about both militaries—and examines its political implications for Ukraine, Russia, NATO countries, and globally. Prussian general and military theorist Carl von Clausewitz famously remarked that war is the continuation of politics by other means. But he also noted that war is ‘the realm of uncertainty’ and ‘the realm of chance’, with unanticipated outcomes on the battlefield changing the political calculus. Given this uncertainty, how might the war in Ukraine end, if indeed it does?
