Isaiah Berlin. Liberty (2002)
The virtues and vices of resigning from office
Resigning from office can have a deeply moral dimension, whether to make amends for an unethical deed or to avoid having to carry one out. It is therefore no surprise that those calling for a restoration of morality in public affairs should stress the virtues of resigning. Is it always morally responsible to resign on ethical grounds, however? This paper argues against this Manichean stance. Instead, loosely borrowing from Aristotle’s theory of t…
The morality of university decision-makers
Ethical failures in UK higher education have recently made the news but are not a recent development. University decision-makers can, in order to adopt an ethical way of reasoning, resort to several ethical traditions. This article focuses, through the use of concrete examples, on three which have had a significant impact in recent higher education policy: utilitarianism, in the form of stakeholder theory; principled theory, used in ethical codes…
Them’ and ‘us
The distance between politicians and those they are supposed to represent is substantial. Almost invariably, it is politicians themselves who are made to shoulder the responsibility for this 'gap', their actions being demonised. This paper assesses some 'ordinary' ethical lapses that politicians are often accused of: lying, breaking promises and being self-serving. It is argued that the public tend to apply double standards when it comes to the m…

Isaiah Berlin and the totalitarian mind
One of the important—yet often underestimated—dimensions of the intellectual legacy of Isaiah Berlin is his contribution to the demystification of the totalitarian temptation in the twentieth century. This paper starts with an apparent paradox: Berlin is described as a major figure of the anti‐totalitarian camp, yet his writings nowhere touch explicitly on the totalitarian regimes of his time. Nonetheless, it is argued that Berlin's notion of “mo…
The Liberal Message of Raymond Aron
Lectures critiques
Discussions about a European constitution ought to focus on substantive policy challenges that cannot be met effectively within the present institutional framework of the European Union. The paper begins by discussing the characteristics of three distinct modes of European policy making – intergovernmental agreement, supranational centralization and joint-decision making. In all three modes, effective and legitimate European action depends on hig…
