Title: Apologizing for Torture and More:  Possibilities for Contrition in International Relations
Time and Place: February 26, 2016 at 4:30 pm in the Interpretive Center

Abstract: In fall 2014, a U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee revealed greater details on the use of torture by the United States in the war on terror.  When and how does the US admit its wrongdoing, apologize, make amends, and more?    This talk utilizes literature on forgiveness and reconciliation, the transitional justice literature, and past cases of inter-state reconciliation to examine contrite behavior of states in international relations.    What factors influence contrite behavior by the U.S. in its foreign policy? Would this contrition have value for building a more just and secure international order?
