This course will address some of the challenging issues that the global community faces as it seeks to adjust to the emerging international reality of the 21st century. It will examine, from the perspective of a morally informed debate and dialogue, the choices that confront the international community as it struggles to deal with such issues as: Religion & Identity, International migration and refugees, Humanitarian intervention, Human rights, and the use of force. Case studies will be used to illuminate and apply moral norms to these, and other issues and problems in international relations.
