The first 13-week series of Carnegie Council's Global Ethics Forum airs nationally on MHz Worldview in September.
Custom-designed for television, Global Ethics Forum is a half-hour international affairs program debuting on the MHz Worldview Lecture block on Sunday, September 5 at 2 PM ET (note revised time).
How do global leaders make decisions? What moral codes guide them—and how do those codes evolve?
The September 5th program will feature political scientist and journalist Stephen Kinzer on U.S. relations with Iran and Turkey in the first half-hour, followed by historian Niall Ferguson on the financial crash and the symbiotic relationship between China and the U.S. that he has labeled "Chimerica."
MHz channels vary per city. For local listings, please go to MHz Worldview- national independent TV network.
