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
The second edition of the Oxford History & Social Science Workshop is an opportunity for graduate students in Oxford to present their progress in dissertation chapters or articles to an interdisciplinary audience. It is also a space for discussing the conceptual and methodological challenges of working in the interstices, or challenging the disciplinary boundaries between history and the social sciences. The workshop includes 1)researchers from the social sciences (e.g. economics, politics, sociology, geography, law, area studies) that address problems with a significant historical dimension, or employ historical sources such as archival material or oral testimonies; 2) and historians that use social science concepts, methods or theories from, or tackle questions relevant for the social sciences.
