Can we identify (and enforce) an objective set of universal moral values to guide relations between states and peoples? Is the U.N. a useful institution or is it destined to fail?

Course description: This advanced seminar course is concerned with the ‘structure-agent’ problem as it applies to Canadian foreign policy.
