SUMMARY:Book Colloquium: Measuring Peace and Related Matters
DESCRIPTION:The colloquium\, organised by Oxford Global Society\, will focus on Richard Caplan’s recent book: Measuring Peace: Principles\, Practices\, and Politics (Oxford University Press\, 2019; ppbk 2021) and then touch on other issues around peace. Richard’s book opens with the question: How can we know if the peace that has been established following a civil war is a stable peace? The answer: more rigorous assessments of the robustness of peace are needed. Richard goes on to show how that can be done. The debate will touch on other matters relating to peace\, including how to get to peace and the process after peace. \nRead the excerpt from Richard Caplan’s book here. \n \nRichard Caplan: Professor of International Relations at the University of Oxford.

SUMMARY:The New Cold War? Online book colloquium: Comity by Frank Vibert
DESCRIPTION:In this online event\, Frank Vibert\, OXGS Fellow\, will present his new book: Comity: Multilateralism in the New Cold War. The book depicts a new Cold War between democracies and authoritarian countries. The fundamentally different values they embed in the way they approach government and policymaking means that the task of making fully international rules of behaviour has become almost impossible. The meagre results from COP26 and the indefinite postponement of the 2021 WTO Ministerial meeting illustrate this problem. As the main way out of deadlock\, the book explores the role of like-minded democratic countries in taking the lead in making international rules. Will it lead to further conflict? Is it a legitimate approach? \nParticipants:\nFrank Vibert  \nAuthor. OXGS Fellow and an associate of the Centre for the Analysis of Risk and Regulation (CARR) at the London School of Economics where he was a Senior Visiting Fellow between 2008-2020. \nRichard Caplan\nCommentator. Richard Caplan is Professor of International Relations at the University of Oxford. His research is concerned principally with international organizations and conflict management. He is the author\, most recently\, of Measuring Peace: Principles\, Practices and Politics (Oxford University Press). \nPaul Craig\nCommentator. Paul Craig is Emeritus Professor of English Law\, St John’s College\, Oxford University. He has written extensively on constitutional law\, administrative law\, EU law and comparative administrative law. \nDenis Galligan\nModerator. OXGS Director. Emeritus Professor of Socio-Legal Studies\, Oxford University.     \nEvent registration:\nhttps://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAkdu6trDspHddJG-Nb3Zh1xjIzo-vdtIs8
