A Discussion on Ethics and Political Violence

Ethics and Political Violence explores the moral dilemmas that arise when ideas, speech, and politics collide with acts of violence. In this episode we ask: What moral principles are violated by politically motivated assassination? Can there ever be ethical justification for targeting a political figure who holds controversial views? And what responsibilities do speakers, listeners, institutions, and society carry in maintaining a space for peaceful disagreement? Thought-provoking, timely, and respectful—this is a must-listen for anyone concerned about democracy and public life.
