Michael Ignatieff is an articulate advocate of the use of American military power to shape the world according to American values and interests. A reviewer in The New York Times Book Review writes that Ignatieff “tells us how to do terrible things for a righteous cause and come away feeling good about it.” Ignatieff, the Carr Professor of Human Rights at the Kennedy School of Government, is the son of a Russian emigre father and a Canadian mother who studied at the University of Toronto. He earned his doctorate at Harvard University. This Forum is co-hosted by the University of Virginia Law School and the Forum for Contemporary Thought.
