The re-election of Donald Trump in the 2024 U.S. presidential election marks a pivotal moment in American politics, raising critical questions about the future of democracy, social policy, and international relations. With a strong conservative base and renewed Republican control in Congress, Trump's second term is likely to bring significant shifts to key areas such as reproductive rights, civil liberties, and the role of federal institutions. This election has underscored deepening divides across American society, with shifting support among white male, white female, and Latino voters signaling evolving priorities and a complex response to Trump's policies. Additionally, his victory has implications that extend beyond U.S. borders, potentially reshaping America's commitments to allies and its positions on conflicts such as Ukraine and Israel-Gaza. In today's episode, we explore both the domestic and international implications of a second Trump presidency with this week's special guests. Joining us first is Professor Matthew Lebo, a distinguished scholar in political science from the University of Western Ontario, where he co-directs the Centre for Computational and Quantitative Social Science. Professor Lebo's expertise lies in political methodology and American politics, with a focus on national institutions, political behavior, parties, and public opinion. Professor Lebo is the author of Strategic Party Government: Why Winning Trumps Ideology (2017), and his upcoming book, A Practical Guide to Time Series, will be published by Cambridge University Press in 2025. His work has been featured in over 35 top political science journals, including the American Journal of Political Science and the Journal of Politics. Professor Lebo has also held notable roles as department chair both at Western and SUNY-Stony Brook, where he founded the Center for Behavioural Political Economy. Throughout his career, he has held prestigious appointments, including a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard, an Academic Visitor role at Oxford, and Visiting Professor positions at the University of Toronto and, currently, McGill University. Our second guest this week is Professor Lawrence LeDuc, Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Toronto. Professor LeDuc's work has made an influential mark in the fields of Canadian and comparative political behavior, with a special focus on political parties, elections, and research methods. Among his published works are key titles such as Absent Mandate: Strategies and Choices in Canadian Elections (2019), Comparing Democracies: Elections and Voting in a Changing World (2014), and Dynasties and Interludes: Past and Present in Canadian Electoral Politics (2016). His research has also appeared in respected journals, including Electoral Studies, Party Politics, and the American Political Science Review. In recognition of his contributions, Professor LeDuc was awarded the Mildred A. Schwartz Lifetime Achievement Award in Canadian Politics by the American Political Science Association in 2015.

Secondo appuntamento con il ciclo di podcast dedicato all'Antico Egitto, la cui storia – tra le più longeve del genere umano – è una delle più affascinanti del mondo. In questo secondo podcast vi parliamo di religione. Una realtà che interessa un lasso di tempo molto ampio, circa 3000 anni, e che presenta molteplici aspetti e caratteristiche. Dal concetto di Maat, rappresentato da una divinità femminile con una piuma in testa e che pesa il cuore degli uomini, giudicandoli, subito dopo la loro morte, a quello di Nun, oceano primordiale dal quale, grazie ad un demiurgo, tutto avrebbe avuto origine. Una religione politeistica con divinità dal carattere multidimensionale e spesso rappresentante con sembianze semi-animalesche, con un sovrano, il faraone, mediatore fra la sfera divina e quella terrena e che diede grande rilevanza alla sfera funeraria.Autore del podcast è il Professore Angelo Colonna, già Academic Visitor presso l'Oriental Institute della Oxford University per uno studio sulle divinità e le manifestazioni religiose dell'Egitto Protodinastico. Angelo Colonna è oggi assegnista di ricerca e cultore della materia in Egittologia presso la “Sapienza” Università di Roma, ove si occupa di didattica e collabora al progetto europeo “PAThs – Tracking Papyrus and Parchment Paths: an Archaeological Atlas of Coptic Literature.” Tra le sue pubblicazioni, ricordiamo Religious Practice and Cultural Construction of Animal Worship in Egypt from the Early Dynastic to the New Kingdom.

This talk was given as part of the Oxford Transitional Justice Research (OTJR) Seminar Series. Amnesties are a very common mechanism in transitions to democracy, approximately 85% of amnesties grant pardon to political crimes. However, the question of “what are political crimes in the amnesties context?” remains unanswered. The traditional approach laid by the duty to prosecute international crime and gross human rights violations used in international criminal law is not enough, there are numerous conducts which do not amount to international crimes and may still be contemplated with state clemency. Hence, there is a relevant explanatory gap regarding the definition of political crimes in amnesties, which may carry the space for a dangerous amount of state arbitrariness. This seminar will start by designing the characteristics of amnesties that impact political crimes concept, as well as the rationales and interests involved in amnesties. By scrutinizing the decision-making process of amnesties, the presentation aims to identify factors that might reflect the definition of political crimes. This talk provides insights into the elements that currently constitute political crimes in the amnesties context, and the challenges they pose to the fields of transitional justice and criminal justice. Renata Barbosa holds a PhD from the University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), she is currently an Academic Visitor at the Latin American Centre at the University of Oxford and a member of OTJR. She is also a tutor and project manager at Maastricht University.
