Politics and the Problem of Dirty Hands

October 7, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Tuesday, October 7th

6:30pm Reception | 7:00pm Panel

National Press Club, 529 14th St. NW, Washington D.C.

Is it true that political leaders cannot help but commit immoral deeds if they want to be successful? Are there times when vicious means are justified by the ends? Machiavelli certainly thought so, but is this the way American politics works as well? Are leaders really good if they leave with dirty hands? Join us for a searching investigation into these questions by a panel of experts.

Baylor in Washington is thrilled to partner with the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation, The Institute on Religion and Democracy, and Washington College for this event.
