Professor Heather Widdows, University of Birmingham, "Perfect Me: Beauty as an Ethical Ideal"
Co-sponsored with the Political Theory research cluster.
Coffee and tea provided. All welcome!

Professor Widdows will discuss her recent book.

"The demand to be beautiful is increasingly important in today鈥檚 visual and virtual culture. Rightly or wrongly, being perfect has become an ethical ideal to live by, and according to which we judge ourselves good or bad, a success or a failure. explores the changing nature of the beauty ideal, showing how it is more dominant, more demanding, and more global than ever before. If you have ever felt the urge to 鈥渕ake the best of yourself鈥 or worried that you were 鈥渓etting yourself go,鈥 this book explains why. Perfect Me demonstrates that we must first recognize the ethical nature of the beauty ideal if we are ever to address its harms."
