OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

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.
