Congratulations to Oxford University DPhil students James Hollis, Danish Khan and Riccardo Libertore on being awarded a single-year, fully-funded, 4th year doctoral studentship as part of the global history of capitalism project. Hosted by Brasenose College, they join a research community within the Oxford Centre for Global History. We look forward to collaborating with them over the 2017-18 academic year as they develop their contributions to the project's case study series on the Global History of Capitalism.
