Kant's Perpetual Peace

In his 1983 essay Kant, Liberal Legacies and Foreign Affairs,[9] Doyle builds on Immanuel Kant's views on various issues; especially noted are his views on liberal internationalism. Doyle discusses the two legacies of modern liberalism: the pacification of foreign relations among liberal states (see below) and international imprudence.

Awards and honors

In 2001, Doyle was elected a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences[10] and, in 2009, to the American Philosophical Society.[11] In 2009, he received the American Political Science Association's Charles E. Merriam Award, which is biennially given to "a person whose published work and career represent a significant contribution to the art of government through the application of social science research."[12] In 2011, Doyle received the Hubert H.

He is the former chair of the Academic Council on the United Nations System.

He was also the chair of United Nations Democracy Fund[18] from 2007 to 2013, elected by the members and appointed by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.

Model International Mobility Convention

As the director of the Columbia Global Policy Initiative's,[19] Doyle convened the group of experts who developed the Model International Mobility Convention.[20]

Now a Carnegie Council project, MIMC is building a Network that will encourage support for and develop the convention in order to address emerging international mobility challenges, including pandemic disease and climate stress. [21]

The Model International Mobility Convention fills a gap in international law by covering the multiple forms of international mobility, ranging from visitors through labor migrants to forced migrants and refugees. It proposes a comprehensive framework for international mobility with the goal of establishing a cumulative set of rights afforded to internationally mobile people (and the corresponding rights and responsibilities of states).[22]

Personal life

Doyle is married to Amy Gutmann, President of the University of Pennsylvania.[23] Their daughter, Abigail Doyle, is a professor of chemistry at Princeton.[24]
