Labour & Global Justice Conference
Symposium
The domain of Global Justice has substantially grown over the past twenty years, with important contributions from various fields such as political philosophy and International Relations. Practical issues such as poverty reduction and migration have received significant attention.
Labour issues however, although connected to poverty reduction and migration, have been underrepresented as explicit issues tackled within global justice debates.
This conference aims at drawing attention to labour issues emerging as explicit justice issues within the context of globalization.

Papers on :
labour and trafficking, migrant worker experiences,
health care migration, policy debates, citizenship

Untangling Sexual Consent: Some Remarks
Lecture
Paul Reynolds
Edge Hill University

free lecture - open admission

This lecture will seek to untangle some of the ethical problems and issues around sexual
consent. Drawing first from the sexual consent literature it will seek to outline the key
ideas and questions. Then it will turn to two other fields in which consent is
significant, research ethics and bio-ethics, to see if their handling of consent offers
any additional insight before exploring some key conceptual issues: Dissembling the
Private/Public Divide, Reconceiving the Romance/Reason Dichotomy, Rethinking Bodily
Integrity and Relational Reciprocity, Rethinking Sexual Consent outside of Perfectability
- Autonomy, Contingency, Culture.

Paul Reynolds is Reader in Sociology and Social Philosophy and also Programme Leader in
Sociology and Social Psychology in the Department of Social and Psychological Sciences at
Edge Hill University in Lancashire in the United Kingdom.
