Dr ’s lead article in Contemporary Political Theory is second ‘most cited paper’ in the history of the journal. ‘The Inseparability of Ethics and Politics: Rethinking the Third in Emmanuel Levinas’ offers a rejection of traditional Levinasian ethics and of any politics based on this, arguing instead that Levinas asks us to think in terms of the ethico-political. This is part of Dr Fagan’s broader research project on the repoliticisation of poststructuralist ethics.

Dr. Chris Moran recently sat down with Dr. Trevor McCrisken for a podcast for the to discuss the role of drones in modern surveillance, warfighting, and counterterrorism. McCrisken discusses the weaponization of drones, the targeted killing program of the Bush and Obama administrations, the perception in the West that the drone war is “costless”, and the possibility of what he calls the “perpetual war” against global terrorism.

• Are you interested in Human Rights?

For the fourth year, Humanitarian Aid Relief Trust (HART) is running the HART Prize for Human Rights. The HART Prize for Human Rights aims to engage young people (ages 12-25) with our partners around the world. These groups have little presence in the international media and the humanitarian situations they face are largely unknown and unreported. Many live behind closed borders, meaning it is difficult for aid and support to get in, and for information to get out.

HART works with marginalised communities who are deeply affected by conflict, poverty and human rights abuses. HART focuses on groups and issues which are underrepresented in the international media and neglected by the international community. By running a twin-track programme of advocacy and targeted aid, HART helps marginalised communities to address issues which they themselves consider most important.

We are calling for essays and artwork which focus on the political and humanitarian situations faced by our partners around the world, and which raise awareness of human rights violations.

This year's grand prize will be a trip with HART to visit its partners in Nagorno-Karabakh!

For Christopher Hughes, professor of International Politics and Japanese Studies at 糖心TV University, Abe may be "out on the extreme, [but] he is not that detached from broader Japanese opinion" as far as China is concerned. Hughes said Japanese policymakers changed their perception of China in 2010 when the Japan Coast Guard (JCG) arrested a Chinese trawler captain off the disputed Senkaku/Diaoyu islands in the East China Sea after his vessel had rammed JCG ships.
