OxTalks is Changing
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
Putin and ideology
The question of how ideological Putin and Putinism are has been a topic of discussion over the last decade. The invasion of Ukraine in 2022 made the topic even more important as analysts tried to account for the role of Putin’s thinking as a cause of the war, and to establish whether the invasion marked a new and more ideological phase in the development of Putinism. Much of the discussion of Putin, Putinism, and ideology has focussed on the content of Putin’s ideology, its historical antecedents, and whether it is equivalent to Soviet ideology. Whilst not uninteresting these debates miss something about Putin’s relationship to ideology – his uneven usage of ideology overtime. This talk examines this issue and seeks to explain how Putin’s use of ideology has developed.
