POSTPONED: Ignatius Program: What is a Just War? For and Against Humanitarian Intervention
POSTPONED: Date to be announced.
Is there such a thing as a “just” war? After Rwanda and Darfur, are there moral imperatives to intervene? What is the true meaning of the conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya? This year’s Ignatius Program discusses these complex questions in light of the legal, moral, and strategic issues surrounding the laws of war and their effect in cases of “humanitarian intervention.”
