'Curing the Madness of the Intergovernmental World': Professor Philip Allott (Audio)
from Faculty of Law general media
This lecture was given as the Alec Roche Lecture 2006 at New College, Oxford, under the title 'The Idea of International Society'. Professor Allott re-recorded the lecture on 8 July 2014 at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge. If the intergovernmental world of diplomacy and war and international politics is re-classified under the category of 'madness', that might help us to understand better the scale of the challenge that we face in trying to re-make that world in the light of the age-old idea of the natural social unity of all-humanity.
