SUMMARY:Julius Stone Address: What is political progress?
DESCRIPTION:Julius Stone Address: What is political progress?\nIn-person event\n  \nProgress is both a necessary and a dangerous idea. It is necessary if one is striving to improve the way things are\, and it is dangerous because the pursuit of progress has historically often given rise to episodes of paternalism\, colonial domination and narratives of civilizational superiority. In my talk\, I will present some first thoughts on how to defend a more critical account of progress. I will start by distinguishing between moral and political progress\, then explore the relation between political progress and justice. I will suggest that we make political progress not when we approximate an ideal of justice that is always already known to us\, but when the political institutions we construct reflect what we learn from the trials and failures of the past. \nAbout the speaker\nProfessor Lea Ypi \nLea Ypi is Professor in Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science and an Honorary Professor in Philosophy at the Australian National University. A native of Albania\, she has degrees in Philosophy and in Literature from the University of Rome La Sapienza\, a PhD from the European University Institute and was a Post-Doctoral Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College\, Oxford University. She is the author of Global Justice and Avant-Garde Political Agency\, The Meaning of Partisanship (with Jonathan White)\, and The Architectonic of Reason. Her latest book\, a philosophical memoir entitled Free: Coming of Age at the End of History\, won the 2022 Royal Society of Literature Ondaatje Prize and the Slightly Foxed First Biography Prize and is being translated into more than twenty languages. Her academic work has been recognised with the British Academy Prize for Excellence in Political Science and the Leverhulme Prize for Outstanding Research Achievement. She coedits The Journal of Political Philosophy and occasionally writes for The Guardian. \n  \nTuesday 29 August\, 2023\nTime: 6-7.30pm \nVenue: Lecture Theatre 101\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School. \nThe Julius Stone Address is generously sponsored by the Educational Heritage Foundation. It is named to commemorate the life and work of Professor Julius Stone\, Australia’s foremost legal philosopher and for many years Challis Professor of International Law and Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney.
