OM DENNE EPISODE

Is War Inevitable?

From ancient battles to modern proxy wars, conflicts have been a constant in human history. But does that mean we are destined to continue treating it as an option? Those saying war is inevitable argue that our global system is anarchic and no overarching authority exists to stop war, so states prioritize survival and power. But others argue that conflict is not the only form of dispute resolution; trade, diplomacy, international law, mediation, and peace treaties can avert war. Now we debate: Is War Inevitable? 

 

Arguing Yes: Dylan Motin, Visiting Scholar at the Seoul National University Asia Center 

Arguing No: Gabrielle Rifkind, Conflict Mediator; Director of Oxford Process 

Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates
