FEPS, Progressive Britain, and the Karl-Renner-Institut proudly co-organised the 11th edition of the Oxford Symposium, which took place at St. Catherine’s College, Oxford, from 14 to 16 December 2025.

The Symposium opened with a welcoming dinner on Sunday, 14 December. It featured the presentation of the new book “The great unravelling: Globalisation in retreat?“, edited by Professor Patrick Diamond and Dr Ania Skrzypek.
