Annotation
Course outline International morality: does such a thing really exist ? Aren’t nation-states — even democratic ones — ‘cold monsters’ primarily interested in their own power and security ? The answer to both questions is a positive one. Between ethical ideals and realist considerations, not only NGOs, but states, too, act ethically at times. Why ? When ? How ? This course shall discuss these issues and, based on my research, examine an alternative to the liberal Human Rights agenda. You can find the full syllabus attached.
