Biography
After seven years work on the Northern Ireland peace process in the 1990s,[5] Iain King held a senior political role in Kosovo’s UN Administration,[9] and co-authored a book on the history of Kosovo and the difficulties of post-war state-building in the Balkans, called Peace at Any Price: How the World Failed Kosovo.
His 2008 book, How to Make Good Decisions and Be Right All the Time: Solving the Riddle of Right and Wrong, starts with a history of moral philosophy and then develops a hybrid methodology for ethical decision-making.[10] King's approach has been described as quasi-utilitarian,[11][12] and credited with reconciling competing systems of ethics.[13][14][15]
Secrets of The Last Nazi, based on extensive research of the Nazi era, was King's debut novel, first published in 2015.[16][17] A sequel followed in 2016.[16]
Making Peace in War is about Afghanistan.[18]
King has been featured as a foreign policy analyst on CNN and BBC,[5] and has written for multiple outlets, many of them based in the US, including NBC,[19] Defense One,[20] Prospect,[6] and National Interest.[21]
