The Seminar on Ethics and International Relations provides a forum for scholars, practitioners, and researchers to explore a broad range of ethical issues relevant to international affairs. In the past, speakers have discussed a variety of topics including humanitarian intervention, human rights, global justice, and international health policy and development. While our speakers and participants bring a variety of backgrounds and methodological approaches to the seminar, we are united primarily by our interest in the area where the normative empirical dimensions of international politics meet. Typically, participants are drawn from the Weatherhead Center, Harvard Kennedy School, Harvard Divinity School, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, departments of Government, Philosophy, and History, as well as several other local universities and institutions. Stanley H. Hoffmann, Paul and Catherine Buttenwieser University Professor, chairs the seminar.
