Listen "Seán Molloy on Realist Ethics"
Episode Synopsis
Seán Molloy (University of Kent - @SeanMolloyIR) speaks with the Thinking Global team about Realist Ethics and the work of E.H. Carr. Dr. Molloy chats with Kieran about what 'Realism' as a school of IR theorising is, how considering Realism as amoral or immoral is incorrect, responses to and misinterpretation of Carr's 'The Twenty Years Crisis' , the importance of hermeneutics, what Carr's 'impure' or 'inconsistent' ethics looks like, and how figures like Mearsheimer fit into this discourse. Thinking Global is affiliated with E-International Relations - the world's leading open access website for students and scholars of international politics.
