Discussing the Transnational Politics of Empathy

Dr Carolyn Pedwell was interviewed last week by John McMahon from City University of New York about her book Affective Relations:  The Transnational Politics of Empathy.  The discussion can be heard on the New Books in Global Ethics and Politics website.  The book traverses multiple disciplinary and intellectual boundaries and queries empathy as a social and political relation that cannot be separated from power and inequality.

New Books in Global Ethics and Politics is hosted by The Graduate Center, City University of New York.  The channel interviews authors on the topics of global democracy, the philosophy of human rights, global justice, international ethics, deliberative democratic theory, international political theory, and more.
