This project, which incorporates two disciplines (philosophy and history) from the humanities and two discliplines (law and political science) from the social sciences, is a ground-breaking initiative designed to exploit the intersection between these ‘sciences humaines,’ providing a forum at Balliol for applying these disciplinary approaches to contemporary developments in political and international affairs. It will sponsor conferences and lectures and offer opportunities for political stakeholders and decision-makers to interact with top-ranked researchers, enriching both the academic environment of Balliol and the university and providing links to and impact upon the policy-making world.
