Refugee and Asylum Law in Context

Warwick’s own Catherine Briddick, explores the recent controversial Small Boat Bill - and it’s clear defiance of our current understanding of international law and non-refoulement (the understanding that refugees should not be returned to their country of origin, and their site of persecution). Catherine will help attendees understand the gravity of this decision, how it may affect the world’s most vulnerable, and how students may use their voices to stop such a decision coming to fruition.

“In Ethics: Twelve Lectures on the Philosophy of Morality, David Wiggin surveys the answers most commonly proposed for such questions—gathering insights from Hume, Kant, the utilitarians, and the post-utilitarian thinkers of the twentieth century. The view of morality he then proposes draws on sources as diverse as Aristotle, Simone Weil and present-day thinkers such as Philippa Foot. As need arises, he pursues a variety of related issues and engages additional thinkers—Plato and Bernard Williams on egoism and altruism, Schopenhauer and Aurel Kolnai on evil, Leibniz and Rawls on impartiality, and Montaigne and J. L. Mackie on ‘moral relativism’, among others.” For the most part, the seminars are planned to takein person, in S2.77, but we move online forsomelater sessions. All colleagues, including undergraduate and postgraduatestudents, are very welcome.
