DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the ongoing event series Free Speech at the Crossroads: International Dialogues. These events are sponsored by the Free Speech Project (Georgetown University)\, the Las Casas Institute and Campion Hall\, hosted by Georgetown University on Zoom. \nNo one seems particularly shocked when Vladimir Putin prevents the Russian people from hearing the truth about his war in Ukraine. But many are oblivious when powerful figures in western democracies\, while paying lip service to free expression\, regularly and willingly cooperate with international censorship regulations in the name of commerce. Are we prepared to have our films edited and our sports figures silenced to please dictators? \nFeaturing\n\n\nNadine Elzein\, a research fellow in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Warwick\, holds a PhD from University College London.

His book Counsels of Imperfection: Thinking through Catholic Social Teaching was published in 2020. A new book\, Money\, Finance\, Reality\, Morality\, will appear in 2022. In progress are books on narratives of conflicting and complementary modernity and on economics and ethics. \nCorynne McSherry\, legal director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and one of California’s top entertainment lawyers\, specializes in intellectual property\, open access\, and Free Speech issues. She has defended online fair use\, political expression\, and the public domain against the assault of copyright maximalists. Her policy work includes efforts to promote net neutrality and best practices for online expression. She testified before Congress about the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and Section 230. \nGwen Robinson is chief editor of the Nikkei Asian Review and senior fellow at the Institute of Security and International Studies at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok\, specializing in Myanmar and the Southeast Asian region.

SUMMARY:Human Dignity and the Socio-Economic Order
DESCRIPTION:Dr Sohail Hanif\, CEO of the National Zakat Foundation\, will give the next seminar in the Human Dignity in the Islamic Tradition series which is jointly organised by the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies and Blackfriars Hall. Dr Hanif will be speaking on the theme ‘Human Dignity and the Socio-Economic Order’. \nA vision of human dignity is embedded within the socio-economic teachings of Islamic jurisprudence: community\, faith\, and justice are anchored within key Islamic legal rules pertaining to trade and charity. Islamic jurisprudence and moral theology presents materials for a discourse promoting human dignity by constraining government\, promoting fair economics\, balancing the right to private ownership and industry with public access to essential resources\, and grounding society on a principle of charity and faith\, with a fascinating view of a pluralistic faith society. The talk will argue that\, in the Islamic tradition\, human trade is understood as a reflection of a cosmic order\, where man’s relationship with God is framed as trade\, elevating thereby the status of man’s pious efforts on earth. \nSohail Hanif\, DPhil (Oxon) became National Zakat Foundation’s Chief Executive in November 2021. Prior to this\, he held the position of BA Manager and Lecturer at Cambridge Muslim College. From 2015-17\, he was NZF’s Head of Research and Development and has also held the position of Head of Sciences at Qasid Arabic Institute in Amman. Dr Hanif has expertise in Islamic law\, having studied extensively with traditional scholars\, and holds a doctorate from the University of Oxford. His doctoral thesis\, which explores Islamic legal epistemology\, won the 2019 prize of the British Association for Islamic Studies. \n  \nThis seminar will be presented both in person\, at the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies\, and online. In-person attendance does not require registration. To attend on-line via Zoom\, please click the link below.
