The Seminar on Ethics and International Relations provides a forum for scholars to explore a broad range of ethical issues with relevance to international affairs. Several recent speakers have taken a philosophical perspective, seeking to apply moral theory to practical problems such as humanitarian intervention or global distributive justice. Others have adopted a more empirical approach, addressing current issues including global poverty and the economics of AIDS drug provision in Africa. Participants are drawn from the Weatherhead Center, the Departments of Government, Philosophy, and History, the John F. Kennedy School of Government, the Divinity School, and other universities. Seminar meetings are open to the public.
