Responding to Global Poverty: Harm, Responsibility, and Agency

• What is the nature of our responsibilities to poor people abroad?
• How much can these responsibilities demand of us?
• What are the implications of our failing to do what we ought to do?

This lecture explored these questions and proposed some answers.
