The City Politics PodcastEpisode 20 - The ethics of warOn February 21st 2022, Russian troops crossed into Ukrainian territory. It was a monumental escalation of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia which began with the Russian annexation of Crimea and the support of pro-Moscow separatists in Eastern Ukraine. As the Russo-Ukrainian War intensifies and more lives are lost or ruined, many of us have been thinking about the morality of such conflicts.
Today we will give you the City view on the ethics of war.
Our guests are Helen Frowe, Professor of Practical Philosophy and Knut and Alice Wallenberg Scholar at Stockholm University, and Jonathan Parry, Assistant Professor of Philosophy...2022-05-1954 min
Pravidelná dávka245. Môže byť niekedy vojna spravodlivá?Môže byť za určitých okolností vojna spravodlivá? Čo je vlastne pointou tejto otázky? Zdá sa, že samotný pojem „spravodlivá vojna“ je oxymoron rovnako ako „teplý sneh“ či „ubližujúca láska“, ale zástancovia tejto teórie, ktorá je stará – nuž veľmi stará – by oponovali jednoduchou otázkou:----more---- Ak by vojna nebola nikdy správna, teda, ak by nebolo nikdy morálne prípustné brániť sa násiliu, ktoré si nás chce nielen podmaniť, zotročiť či zabiť nás, ale taktiež zničiť hodnoty, inštitúcie a ideály, ktoré sme si roky budovali a udržiavali; no ak by nebolo spr...2022-04-0517 minPhilosophy Takes On The NewsS1 / Ep 5 / 18th MarchMoral compromise.

The Living Jewishly PodcastAre There Innocent Civilians in War?“You can’t just apply the rules as if they’re always going to be the same.”— Professor Anthony Lang You might think that “ethics of war” is a contradiction in terms. But although the vast majority of us would prefer it did not exist, warfare is a rich subject when it comes to discussing ethical considerations. This episode of Living Jewishly is an instalment of What Would You Do?. In this episode, Dr. Elliot Malamet welcomes three esteemed scholars, Professor Anthony Lang, Professor Helen Frowe, and Professor Asa Kasher, to explore...2021-07-061h 01

LCIL International Law Centre PodcastLCIL Friday lecture: 'Implementing the 1954 Hague Convention: Conflicts between People and Heritage' - Helen Frowe, University of StockholmLecture summary: In 2017, the British Government ratified the 1954 Hague Convention on the Protection of Cultural Property in Times of Armed Conflict (henceforth, the Hague Convention). This Convention, along with its two Additional Protocols, sets out the obligations of states with respect to cultural heritage in war. War throws up a range of conflicts between protecting people and protecting heritage, in terms of both the use of resources, and the imposition and incurring of risk. And yet, from UNESCO to the Blue Shield, those working in heritage insist that such conflicts between people and heritage are impossible. For example, Irina...2020-11-0957 min

What exactly is cultural property and whose property is it? How should we weigh its value against other priorities during times of conflict? What risks should be taken to protect it, and who is responsible for rebuilding and restoring when the conflict is over? Our speakers discuss the political and ethical issues around culture in war zones. Helen Frowe is Professor of...2018-01-171h 29

Hi-Phi NationSoldier Philosophers Part 2: The Morality of WarFor some reason, when people kill others in wars, we do not judge them morally and legally in the same way as we judge them when they kill in civilian life. Is there a justification for this difference, or is it only a convenient myth? We go to West Point to see what soldiers themselves think and teach about the morality of killing in war. Just as the US winds down two major unconventional wars, philosophers, including many soldier philosophers, are trying to revise hundreds of years of thinking about the morality of warfare.
