OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Philosophical and Theological Sources of ‘The Common Good’
The first lecture in The D’Arcy Lectures series exploring the concept of Common Good through the three lenses of Aristotle’s philosophy, Catholic teaching, and contemporary political liberalism.
SYNOPSIS
Authors such as Adrian Vermeule, Michael Sandel and Jonathan Sachs invoke ‘The Common Good’ in recent publications. It is increasingly heard in the discussion of law’s purpose, and in the critique of contemporary politics. What does it mean? This lecture explores the philosophical and theological sources of the concept, from Aristotle’s introduction of the notion in his Politics, and its adoption in Christian Theology to being a pillar of Catholic Social Teaching today.
