Aggie Agora Podcast on the War in Ukraine

I was fortunate enough to interview Anna Pechenkina, an international relations scholar here at USU who happens to be a native Russian speaker from eastern Ukraine, on my podcast. She is incredibly knowledge and incisive, and I learned a ton from her. You might also find this interesting in light of recent events. We in part consider some of the possible outcomes and ethical questions surrounding the conflict in addition to the history of Ukraine and some of the key figures on both sides of the war.

Philosophy Club discussion next Tuesday

Tuesday March 22.  1:30-2:30 in RWST 113

“Just War theory and American military intervention in Ukraine”

Most of the discussion around the possibility of NATO establishing a “no fly zone” over Ukraine has focused on the strategic and military aspects of that possibility.  But the moral dimensions – just war theory – have not been much discussed.  At this event there will be a presentation on just war theory and the relevant moral considerations followed by lively discussion.
