Religious traditions have delivered a unique and promising answer in the concept of reconciliation. This way of thinking about justice contrasts with the 'liberal peace,' which dominates current thinking in the international community. The RFP will host a book event responding to Daniel Philpott's recently published book, Just and Unjust Peace: A Ethic of Political Reconciliation. A panel of Christian, Muslim and Jewish scholars will assess the argument for reconciliation at the theological and philosophical levels and in its application to political orders like Germany, South Africa and Guatemala.

This paper analyzes the relationship between middle class aesthetics and politics in Egypt’s ongoing revolution. By examining phenomena such as urban beautification campaigns and Egyptians’ aesthetic judgments of different forms of political protest, the paper highlights the strong civilizing impulse at the center of Egypt’s transformation – an impulse that continues to both constrain and enable revolutionary action.

In a new book, Law's Virtues: Fostering Autonomy and Solidarity in American Society, legal scholar and moral theologian Cathleen Kaveny (Notre Dame) argues that it can. In conversation with thinkers as diverse as Thomas Aquinas, Pope John Paul II and Joseph Raz, she argues that the law rightly promotes the values of autonomy and solidarity. At the same time, she cautions that wise lawmakers will not enact mandates that are too far out of step with the lived moral values of the actual community. At this lunchtime seminar, Professor Kaveny will present her book and discuss the relevance of her argument for American politics and society across a range of critical issues.

The demographic picture in Jordan – with highly educated women largely remaining outside the formal job market for most of their adult lives – prompted the World Bank in 2005 to label the country a “gender paradox,” but Adely argues that this assessment is a fallacy. Showing that the important place of education in Jordan should not be calculated solely through an employment lens, she raises fundamental questions about what constitutes development, progress and empowerment, not just for the girls of al-Khatwa High School but for women throughout the Middle East. Sponsored by the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies. 6pm, CCAS Boardroom (ICC 241).
