“Whose Right? Grotius and the Origin of Rights in International Affairs” Presented by Dr. Megan Brand

Legal scholar, theorist, and ambassador Hugo Grotius offers enduring wisdom for today’s foreign affairs
challenges. Join the PPH program and guest speaker Dr. Megan Brand as they discuss the implications of Grotius’ theories toward questions such as:
• Does might make right in international affairs?
• Are there enduring natural rights that all leaders in international affairs are bound to uphold?
• What might an idea of rights arising from the social nature of man inform action in international affairs?
