On Tuesday, April 8th, 2025, at 5:00 PM, the McGrath Institute for Church Life will sponsor “Vocation as a Principle of Natural Law: A Book Launch and Discussion of Ethics, Politics and Natural Law by Melissa Moschella” at the Andrews Auditorium in Geddes Hall in celebration of Moschella’s new book, Ethics, Politics, and Natural Law (March 2025). In this book, Moschella provides an accessible explanation and development of the new natural law account of ethics and politics while clarifying common misconceptions.
The launch will feature an introduction from John Cavandi, a presentation from author Melissa Moschella, and responses from Dan Philpott and David Cloutier. A Q&A and reception will follow. The event is free and open to the public.
