Now Playing: Summer Colloquium Video

by | Nov 3, 2010 | NYUAD | 0 comments

In an earlier post, I described the video that I had recorded as part of NYUAD’s Summer Colloquium on Cosmopolitanism. Incoming NYUAD students were invited to read Anthony Appiah’s Cosmopolitanism: Ethics in a World of Strangers and to pose questions to one another and to me via online discussion groups. The lecture that I recorded responded to many of these questions. I noted in the earlier post that”just been made available to NYUAD faculty and staff as a Flash video on the NYUAD Intranet.”

I’m pleased now to be able to offer it to readers of this blog. It lasts 35 minutes, and if you do take a look at it, I’d love to read your responses and questions.
