授業の概要
Special Topic: The Ethics of Capitalism
Can capitalism have moral foundations? Though this question may seem strange in today's world of vast economic disparities and widespread poverty, discussions originating with the birth of capitalism add a critical perspective to the current debate on the efficacy and morality of capitalist economies. This course introduces classical political philosophy as a framework by which to evaluate the ethics of capitalism today. It begins by revisiting and reconstructing historical eighteenth- and nineteenth-century defenses of capitalism, as written by key proponents such as Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill. It further wonders what these early advocates of market order would say about contemporary economies, and discusses the importance of connecting these foundational defenses to the examination of economic systems and the roles they play in economic justice and injustice today.
