Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The debate and politics surrounding immigration have become increasingly polarised. Within this context, how do Western democratic societies grapple with rising nativism, exclusionary ideologies, and structural discrimination?
In this hybrid seminar series, leading scholars of political behaviour, race and ethnicity, gendered politics, and inequality will examine the causes and consequences of exclusionary politics and discriminatory structures, and discuss the interventions required to challenge them.
Over the course of the series, speakers will explore a range of topics, including:
> The dilemmas facing mainstream social democratic political parties responding to pressures from the radical right, with a focus on the UK;
> The prevalence and political consequences of colour-blind attitudes in the UK;
> How gendered anti-immigration narratives gain and lose traction;
> How discrimination shapes opportunities across the life course, from employment and housing to childcare, and continues to reproduce inequalities across generations.
This series will be hybrid: register to join via the Zoom link, or join us in person. You do not need to register to participate in person.
Attendance is free, and all are welcome.
