There's a talk on Wednesday Nov 3 at 4.30 in Clarke 118 sponsored by the Business department that's right up our alley, especially if you're in the Enlightenment course this term: IS GREED GOOD?
Brief description:
The presentation explores the role of personal self discipline—emphasizing the distinction between self interest and greed. I start by playing the Ultimatum game. It is a short interactive experience for students, and they like being involved. Then, I use what we discovered in the Ultimatum game to address Smith’s moral philosophy, linking wealth creation with moral development. I encourage students to ask questions as we go along.
