 ons\, 'the arts'\, etc..) perform a vital function in the life of liberal

 ing tyrants. COVID-19 has forced civil society largely online. Can it surv
 ive there?\n\nTo join the webinar\, click here.\n\nTo discover the other l

 f normative ideals. His areas of expertise also include the politics of la
 nguage and identity\, democracy\, citizenship\, and pluralism.\n\nHe joine

  Katharine A. Pearson Chair in Civil Society and Public Policy in the Facu
 lties of Law and of Arts on June 1\, 2020\, for a seven year mandate.\n\nP
 rofessor Daniel Weinstock has published many articles on the ethics of nat
 ionalism\, problems of justice and stability in multinational states\, the
  foundations of international ethics\, and the accommodation of cultural a
 nd moral diversity within liberal democratic societies. He has also been a
 n active participant in public policy in Québec\, having been a member fro
 m 1997 to 1999 of a Ministry of Education working group on religion in pub
 lic schools\, and from 2003 to 2008\, the founding director of Quebec’s Pu
 blic Health Ethics Committee.\n\nProfessor Weinstock is a prize fellow of 
 the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation (2004)\, and a recipient of the Andr
 é-Laurendeau Prize given by the Association canadienne-française pour l’av
 ancement des sciences (2008). A James 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ Professor from 2014 to 2020\,
  he was awarded the 2017 Charles Taylor Prize for Excellence in Policy Res
 earch by the Broadbent Institute.\n\nPreviously a Professor of Philosophy
