Professor Simon Blackburn speaks as first opposition on Thursday 9th November 2023 at 8:00pm in the Debating Chamber.
One of humanity's oldest questions: are there any fundamental rights or wrongs? Is morality, or what we measure it by, a socially constructed process? Do we have the right to criticise those who hold morals irreconcilable to our own? This debate aims to test the link between reality and morality.
