We were honoured to welcome Professor Elizabeth Harman, Laurance S. Rockefeller Professor of Philosophy and Human Values at Princeton University, to Oxford to deliver the 2024 Annual Uehiro Lectures in Practical Ethics.
The three-part lecture series, entitled “Love and Abortion”, took place in the H B Allen Centre, Keble College, on 25 April, 2 and 9 May 2024.
What does love teach us about abortion? How does love challenge our ideas about abortion? How can love explain the importance of abortion?
The engaging lectures were very well received, and each was followed by thoughtful and insightful discussions.
