The University of Oxford presents The XVII Forum for Iberian Studies, entitled 'The Crisis in the Iberian Peninsula' on 29 and 30 September. This conference takes as its focal point the financial crisis that began in 2007–2008 and argues that it has had an undeniable impact on society in the Iberian Peninsula.
