Bridging Ethics and World Politics
The Kegley Lecture was established to invigorate the inquiry into the connections between moral concerns and the pressures and realities of world politics.
The series honors Carnegie Council former trustee, Charles W. Kegley, Jr., the author of the best-selling international relations textbook, World Politics: Trend and Transformation, and a role model for those who ask and try to answer the most challenging questions of ethics in international affairs.
"Professor Kegley's life and career embody what our Council is all about: the values we stand for, the work we do, and the impact we seek to have on the world. Scholar, teacher, and voice for ethics, he has been a role model and inspiration for more than 30 years now, so with this lecture now established, we expect at least another hundred." -- Carnegie Council President Joel Rosenthal
